Fair enough ☺️

Agree, i was referring they presented the assault as sexier. Not that you find it sexier.

Have you seen Chinese mainstream dramas? The MLs take their tops off almost in every scene. Kipuka was joking! Plenty of hunks in Chinese social media showing us their abs for free.

Addressing the elephant in the room: why the assault scene was sexier than the mating one? In that scene kipuka is half naked Elliot has an open robe and was seating on top of Kipuka. I hate moralistic views regarding this fictional production. I enjoy the whole idea as fiction, but there is something wrong in Sister Nong aesthetics, to say the least, to shovel us a sexy assault scene and a boring mutual desire consummation one. In the novel, they are both burning in lust in this scene... So tell me exactly what elements represented that...honestly 🙄

At least they are having a blast doing lives and vblogs. The intentions of keeping the CP "alive" is there. So crossing fingers.

The assault scene was sexier that the actual mating one!? Honestly. you know I support the series and hate moralistic views but this a pathetic contradiction.

Not in dreams! They are going to milk it as long as they can (you have the "fluffy" live stream in the middle 🙄)

Nobody need to eat the other person. This is about selling a scene in a compelling way. I can quote lots of chinese mainstream dramas, that had to pass the censorship agency, which these BLs do not, with really sound sex scenes. Bts are part of fan service. The actors know they are being recorded. Kill to Love does not have bts of kissing. The two CP actors from the best Chinese performing academies, read the script got it and delivered the best kissing scene i have ever watched in a Chinese drama of any kind (and yes, tongues included)

I share your dissapointment. It is a poor excuse to say this is Chinese BL. First of all there is no censorship agency intervening, even mainstream Chinese dramas have compeling sex scenes. It is simple lack of imaginative direction.

Thats wrong. The actors clarified there is no extra eps

Thank you!!! I sent a message to "kill to love" in Insta asking about the director, screen writing, producers but never got a response. Now I have added my question with the TikToker

Bad direction. This is what it is. Sex scenes, kissing scenes are equivalent to a coreography in a dance. Need to be staged, designed, filmed correctly to transmit the emotion and invite the viewer imagination. No need for stripping or soft porn. It is a waste of elliot & kipuka casting. They were hired as a pair for a reason.

DZA was dying as consequence of his elite assassin training. They all die at their prime. SH was under house arrest since the north took over the south. Ex army member convinced him to escape to lead them again. He decided to became again DZA lover to gain his trust except he was not faking it. He adored DZA so was living with a terrible double guilt. He escaped but get caught so DZA chained him. DZA was distorted by the attempt of escape and was dying. SH decided to reconcile to accompany him in the last part of his life, except that he really wanted to leave this world with dignity and as an atonement for his shortcoming and for loving DZA so much. He also didn't want to die before DZA. In any case he would have been kill the minute DZA die. Is this what you were asking?

I have added quite a few post back

Absolutely. Chinese dramas are tame but we have really good scenes with the actors in. loose clothing . Or as you say showing a bit. Wang An Yu in Passionetly in Love has a sex scene in which only the very top of his shoulder are showing and the face of his CP. That was Enough.

As I was expected. The bts was much better. Why then they make the sex scenes so bland!? First of all they are fully dressed while in the hotel assault scene they are not. This event of the marking and mutual sex desire was so important. In the bts Elliot and Kipuka are kissing with all their might and the camera angle doesn't make justice to the act. Sister Nong has two willing actors with hot chemistry and they downplay them all the time. Why Elliot was standing up? why Kipuka has this rigid three pieces suit like he was going to the office? Honestly, could they at least remove the tie and the waistcoat. In the novel he is burning with desire and HY is saying sweet things, but there is not enough representation of this.

This is quite common in Chinese period pieces. But in this case t is based on real events. It is a fictional account of both emperors relationship and the fall of the south kingdom
