Why would you want bad representation of us. I'd rather not have them make this bl if they are going to portray…
Because they're soooo in denial and don't want to admit it's creepy when it literally is. It's funny honestly because it's super creepy in straight relationship too. Japanese isekai genre has a terrible image because it's usually a 30-40 something years old man in a teenage body creeping on 14 years old girls
They lied to me too, I was told that Yiheon was going to get his body back and be in a relationship with SeKyung…
Production team is still homophobic cause they did it for the money but sometimes what homophobes want is in line with what is right lol
I mean BL fans are okay that BL dramas are most likely made for homophobic straight cis women who are either fetishizing gay relationship or so immature they get jealous out of straight romance drama. They said it doesn't matter who's the media made for as long as the story resonates with them. Then just like them for me it doesn't matter the reason of censorship as long as the end product erased the romantization of creepy age gap relationship
Lol, i think the way he was in the drama... he might go for older ladies 🤣🤣That man was never interested…
I forgot it's been a while. And no, pseudo-incest is still incest. I will not change my mind so we can agree to disagree on that. I mostly avoid BL dramas now cause most BL I've ever seen are either romanticizing problematic stuff or simply so unrealistic it's clearly written by a straight woman. The only BL drama I ever like is that one jdrama called Love on the Line
Like I said I highly doubt they will even address it. They don't even adress Lovely Runner couple relationship when Sunjae is still in college (which I think is also kinda weird but at least he's 20 and they don't have older person-younger person dynamic). I know the production company censors it for homophobic reason but the final option is still another non-educational bad representation of lgbt relationship or not having it at all and I choose the later
Lol, i think the way he was in the drama... he might go for older ladies 🤣🤣That man was never interested…
Nah I mean I personality would've loved that but I get the impression that BL fans want a 1:1 adaptation of the source material. If the only option is censorship or glorification of huge age gap romance between a 40 years old dude and a high school student then I'd still choose the censorship.
You're talking as if they will address the problematic stuff if this was a full blown BL, but I highly doubt that when the last Korean BL I tried to watch ends up romanticizes a pseudo incest relationship
Lol, i think the way he was in the drama... he might go for older ladies 🤣🤣That man was never interested…
I agree only if the problematic elements are clearly shown as a bad thing. If that's the case then I am against the censorship. For example if you've seen a movie called Mysterious Skin, it's super fucked up but it clearly shows grooming in a bad light and it educates people about statuary r*pe. I'm okay with such movie existing. Unfortunately the original novel for this drama doesn't seem to address the age difference and instead romanticizes it. In case like this I'm in favor of censorship

Two wrongs don't make a right. Just because there's many pedo-ish straight relationships in media doesn't make the gay ones okay. Both are bad. I and a lot of comic fans despise The Killing Joke animated movie for making Batman and Batgirl hooking up. I know you want to deny it so bad but some people prefer the censorship because we don't like creepy relationships in general not just the gay ones. I would be happy when media stops romanticing weird pedophilic straight relationships.
You're worried about creepy age gaps or elements in media? Ban/censor Disney princess movies. The princes were…
Disney sucks in general not only cause of that so yeah I'm always pirating their shit. I thought you weirdos who defend depiction of pedo relationships like their life depended on it are only in anime community. I guess not
Damn so people who answered my question a few weeks back did not even read the novel huh. Saying it's not creepy age gap romance and shit lol I'm glad they censor this. I also hope drama Yiheon-now-Deukpal stays single his whole life. I trust him to not pulling a Leonardo DiCaprio
Did korean dramas get worse since netflix started giving them money? Are they out to destroy the k-boom/global…
Netflix shows are always cheap unless it's from big IPs like Stranger Things, One Piece or famous superhero stuff like The Sandman, Daredevil, etc. For those big shows they're willing to pay for decent script and great actors because the fanbase is big. They fumbled with Witcher and recently 3 Body Problems but their more expensive productions are usually great
For cheap Netflix shows sometimes you're lucky to have exceptional writing and acting like Cobra Kai and The Haunting of Hill House. Sometimes you're lucky enough to have new actors that can carry mid writing like Bridgerton, YOU, or teen stuff like Wednesday. But generally Netflix produces way more bad shows over the good ones because Netflix is just that greedy. Even after major success the Bridgerton casts are getting paid dust. Don't expect them to invest more to a kdrama that isn't titled Squid Game
I think gaus electronics is the most closest in terms of comedy this drama is nothing serious just comedic and…
No I know this is mostly comedy. I meant everyone has different taste in humor. I usually like campy humor like in Extreme Job, Mr. Queen but Gaus Electronics doesn't make me laugh
I think with all the lighthearted romance releases recently(QoT, LovelyRunner) a sudden shift in tone with this…
It's the opposite. With the first two episodes, people were expecting this drama to be a good revenge drama only for it to focus on the annoying romance. And then the drama tried its best to put all the disgusting bullies in a good light especially Ri-an, as if he isn't the one who tell the other bullies to beat up Kang Inhan. Kang Ha is barely there in the last two episodes and how the bullies get punishment is so ridiculous too as if a criminal record will do any damage to kids that will inherit big company
Rian. The shitty drama tries to shove it under the rug with the "he wasn't directly involved" bullshit but he's literally the one who gave order to the violent guy to beat up Inhan and later Ha
