On gmmtv bl lineup I started watching Kidnap and almost every episode made me want to revisit Never Let Me Go because it does the drama, action and romance 10 times better. So I'm going to rewatch NLMG for the 3rd time.

Gosh, people watching BL are shocked by sex scenes??? Are we living in the 1920s? Don't YOU have sex?It's like…
A lot of people here - and by people I mean mostly girls and women - have to understand that with marriage equality in Thailand as only the 2nd Asian country Boy Love TV has to mature as well. Most importantly advertisers know from the West that openly gay men and women have disproportionally more available funds.
Am I the only one who made presumption about Jiang Tian's father? Learning that, yes, he cheated but no, it…
In the novel as I understand it, JT's father, mother and the the "other man" was in the same school probably classmates. It is foreshadowed that JT's father and the male classmate was already in romantic relationship before he proposed and married his mother.

I know. Gong Gil is NOT a trans person. He is a gay man who dressed in woman's clothes ONLY for performances. I mean, he was so clearly a gay man in man's clothing for every scene other than some performances, that to say he was trans is more than pushing it, it is absurd.
Especially when one considers that ALL female roles were played by men in those days. The above comment was clearly made by someone who knows nothing about the history of theater. The fact is, theater groups were all men, with men playing female roles, not only in 16th century Korea, but in Elizabethan England's Shakespeare plays as well. Those actors were not all "trans" but simply men playing female roles because women were not allowed to be in the theater. It's stunning how people who are utterly ignorant to the history of theater think they sound smart by tossing around a trendy term like "trans."
Me too. I guess Taereung Zombie Village was buried aka is not happening. (note that the "writer" did not check…
The web novel was inspired by the movie. The drama wasn't an adaptation of the movie and wasn't beholden to the movie's stomach-churningly straight storyline. It was adapting the web novel and free to explore the gay parts. The only thing stopping it from going full-on gay was the fear of losing viewership from homophobes
I'm going to copy-paste this comment like a Band-Aid on a gaping wound, so everyone can see the infection that is your BS:
"The original work of "High School Return of a Gangster" is the gay web novel that underwent a process of adaptation. The web novel is an independent and original work inspired by the movie "Dude in Me." Each and every work derived inspiration from countless preceding works, upon which it built its unique identity. @roddib has an inadequate understanding of the term "original work""
I completely agree with the comment left on the-bl-xpress.com by Ian Reid on FEBRUARY 6, 2024 'I don’t mean…
Sadly, the majority just doesn't care. As long as there are "cute boys" it's a 10 🙄 These days talent, or how smart somebody is, are just a nice add-on. What really matters is looks, lol. This is the sad reality of the BL industry. Half of it is homophobic anyway...
