I totally understand what the surgery is, but I was so confused why he chose to get it as an adult (and why it needed to happen right then in the story.) It just felt random and out of nowhere. :-)
I loved it. Certainly a slow burn but so much character development it's amazing.
An alternate title could be, "Sometimes it's best when we don't get the thing we wished for for many years." Both main characters yearned for people for so many years, that when they finally got them, they weren't the right people for them anymore. I really loved that - it's so different from rom-com tropes.
you don't know him lmfao. Also I bet he's like most actors and has standards, you know, like not wanting to act…
Some of us have loudly criticized sexualized violence against women in media for many years now.
Not all straight media is horrible, not every BL is a masterpiece. In fact some (many) BL's are written by straight women for straight women. Again, not worth feeling betrayed over.
He should explore diverse genre and as BL lover I fully support him. As long as the script is good and benefits…
"A wish to see actors in more BL projects is not a call for them to be limited to/pigeonholed into one genre".....but that's exactly what you're calling for here. If they want to do anything else but BL's after they've been in one successful drama, then they're betraying you.

Unless they don't have city-powering chemistry, and the BL is awful. The BL landscape has been littered with sexual violence and abusive and toxic men who hurt each other for our watching pleasure. Thank god that seems to be changing, but it's slow. Yes, there have been some truly groundbreaking dramas over the last couple of years - of all lengths - but there has also been some garbage. Not every BL is worth feeling betrayed over.
(Just as an aside, no one here is mentioning GL's at all - the patriarchy is alive and well when the only LGBTQ+ media being discussed is about and between men.)

I think we can agree to disagree.
