Define "mature". I didn't read the novel, but I'm pretty sure this is some kind of smutty trash story I read back in the day, when I started to get into fanfictions. Most of BL stories are based on such trash material *cough* Addicted/Heroin *cough* Badly written and controversial from an author who has not much psychological knowledge. Don't expect emotional depths. That said, I enjoyed the last scene and thought it was hot like hell! People should just know what this is: a story. A questionable one, but hopefully one that keeps us viewers interested. No need to be all defensive about it.

Your argument makes no sense. People have a right to criticize a series, otherwise every series would be rated with a solid 10, which at the end would lead to more people getting interested in it and then ranting about it, because they discover it’s not there cup of tea. I’m a working adult, I don’t have the time to do „research“. That said, by watching the trailer it was pretty obvious in what direction this would go. People not liking and criticizing it, is okay. But there are some who just never stop, watch every episode and come here to complain again and again. That’s just stupid. If this series will get worse regarding consent issues, then this comment section will get ugly. In that case I‘m out.

Unfortunately many people enjoy rape fantasies espescially in the BL genre. Its a while since 50 Shades of Grey became a bestselling book, but people still enjoy the virgin-meets-millionaire plot. This has nothing to do with age and time, but only with shitty taste. I criticized this series even before it aired. PTSD is a very difficult topic and I highly doubted that a BL author is doing it justice. We will see... That the main lead is molesting the other lead who was molested before is really the worst start you can imagine LOL.

Watch TharnType. That will be fun LOL. Very controversial and problematic story and a spin off of Love by Chance. If the scenes are hot enough though, people will love it . Im not judging, I will watch it too ;P I will tell you what people like: cheesy, cliche and simple told stories. Some rape (fantasies) dont hurt either. What they dont like: complex, well told, not cliche, but real stories with real and complex emotions. Thats how it is. I dont blame the producers and the writers if they always put out more or less the same stuff with similar plots. They must play it safe. In Theory of Love for example we had once again a weak bottom who had to endure a lot in the name of love.

We had a dream scene at the beginning. So now he dreams AGAIN? No, I think this is real.

No idea. 12 maybe? Most of those series have around 12-16 episodes.

Ugh, it wasn't that bad. It's a story after all, no reason to take it too serious, but it leaves a bad taste in your mouth for sure. The whole concept of this story is very problematic.

I doubt this is a dream and I really don't get that scene. It wasn't shown before that Tharn was attracted or in love with Type, so why is he suddenly saying things like "Why am I attracted to you?" and kissing him so passionately? If this is his game, then I guess he will tell him they had sex even though they hadn't or something like this. I was very skeptical when I saw the trailer and I wonder if they can make this work. I mean, let's be honest, someone doesn't like gay people and you do what? Trying to screw him? Like that's helping in this kind of situation?

Scroll down. BriBri123 posted the links.

Don't know what to think about this, but I didn't skip a second so that's a good sign I guess. Some of the dialogue is cringy though. And what was that last scene?!?!

I normally get mad when a bad series is hyped so much *cough* Love by Chance *cough* But in this case I don’t care at all, because Off and Gun are two sweethearts. So I‘m pretty sure the popularity of the actors play a big role in all this hype. I‘m just honestly surprised that there is so less criticism about the story and the characters. The LGBT Community is all about „healthy“ relationships. Normally they would trash such a series merciless.

Well, thats how the world works. The most popular series are always extremely good or extremely bad.

I think watching the Kiss Me Again cut is enough. There are 3 parts on YouTube. It's only two and a half hours long.

Thank you for the link, but I have seen this trailer. Gulf seems to be a rookie actor and it shows. Also a PTSD storyline can always go horribly wrong. That kind of storyline needs some heavy drama and maybe an open end, but it looks like they are going in a different direction. I also feel like there is no chemistry between the leads. Still I hope for the best and I will watch it for sure!

This storyline has a lot of potential, but it looks cheaply produced, bad acted and overall too cheesy and cringy. Hopefully I'm wrong, but the trailer wasn't looking that good :(

Most (I suppose younger) people like the cheesy stuff. I'm a bit sad, because I would wish for some more mature and well told BL series, but at the end of the day all those stories follow the same plot to make sure fans will be satisfied. Pete&Kao are playing it safe too, but at least the execution is more mature. Their interacting, their bickering, their sweet scenes are well acted and pretty smart. Tay and New are pulling it off in an incredible way. Their affection for each other shows in every scene. Their acting is so natural and feels "real" while in many other series it's a bit awkward when the two guys interact. Sometimes that awkwardness is part of the chemistry, but Tay&New just feel at ease when they are with each other. It's so obvious that they are really, really close friends in real life and because of that they are unable to pull off the stupid fan service. It's hilarious, honestly. Seeing those guys passionately kiss would make me faint though. I will admit as much :P

Honestly this guy is just extremely sexy in his role as Tin in Love by Chance. Those gazes, gestures, the way he walks, the way he kisses!!!!

I wonder why so many people are worked up about Suzy‘s acting or how her character is not portrayed in a realistic way. This show has some bigger problems! It focuses too much on the overall story. The characters are mere tools to put the plot forward. I don't care for any of them. They are not interesting enough and that's a HUGE fail. On a side note: Korea is a bit late to the game. We got in the last two decades enough of those terrorism stories (mostly from the US though). I'm just not in the mood to watch this.

Honestly, I'm not here for what others call "romance". I feel like most people think staring in each others eyes, all shy and in love, being all cute together etc. is "romantic". I could never get into the Krist/Singto pairing even though Sotus is a very good show. I refused watching Love By Chance for a long time, because the main couple was just too much for me. Talking about Pete&Kao I thought their episode in Our Skyy was VERY romantic. That kiss on the bridge was great, the dialogue cute and funny. Kao leaning onto Pete with that cute smile – that's what I call romantic! My heart melted. Those two don't even need to kiss to make my heart beat faster, but I'm sure their popularity would increase a lot if they deliver good kisses.

Can you provide a link?
