And respectfully, the BL community will continue supporting shows that do feature lgbtq.
When the majority of the world stands against you, you gotta stay strong and united and I believe the golden age of BL is yet to arrive. But thanks for your concern

I've looked through your Feed-post and responded accordingly.

My conclusion on there is that I disagree with you singling out BL for a lot of problematic tropes that you should know also exist in straight romance.

Aside from that you refuse to give BL any credit for progress made in the genre, likely because you don't watch the genre yourself much so you are unaware of the progress. Yet you are still judging it despite not knowing much of it beyond one Youtube video you gave as source of your problems with the genre.

Yes BL is a genre with flaws, just like all romance genres. Progress however comes not from completely avoiding the genre but from interacting with it and finding the positives. Allowing for growth.

I watched this now. Well then.
It's mainly.. A family consisting of an assaulter dad and an assaulter brother (which you find out very early in the show) getting away with their crimes and the youngest son deciphering dolphin language.
That was basically it, the synopsis gives it way too much credit.

Yoo they're back!

Don't most straight romance shows also have everyone being straight? If you do see a lot of shows with gay side-couples let me know cause I've not encountered a lot.
As for make out scenes, watch straight romance Thai dramas I can assure you they appear there too. Romance dramas in general are aiming at women and unrealistic. Idk why we singling BL out here

Can you explain how it fetishizes queer relationships?

Okay then what BLs do you like? Cause your profiles empty so I can't tell. Trying to get the talk back on track here

No it was cause the author of the original story of ''Bungee Jumping of their Own'' regretted the movie he made and didn't want another adaptation.

Because the drama is based on this:
Adapted from the web novel "I, a Gangster, Became a High Schooler" (조폭인 내가 고등학생이 되었습니다) by Ho Rol (호롤).

They changed things from the original webnovel

Or it could be that on average KBL fans are just usually stricter with their shows in terms of ratings, difficult to know which is the case. Yeah I have not heard of groups of gmmtv fans downvoting other BLs, but if they are doing that they are dumb as they are harming the image of BLs to other drama-fans.

Keep in mind though, ratings are highly subjective. Technically anyone could be blamed for downvoting, I know I didn't rate like all of my Thai BLs OR KBLs above an 8. Sometimes ratings are really just what we feel like at that time.

Okay but why doesn't it show in the actual rating-stats of Semantic Error and Blueming that people reviewbombed these shows (refering to another comment you made)? There should be at least some higher percentage of 4s and 5s reviews or lower then right? I think Thai BL fans just tend to give more 10/10s for their shows.

There's no reason for us to be divided imo. We are already dealing with bigger other fandoms on this website, it's only together as international BL fans that we are strong.

The male lead is dead and in an alternate world. He's not experiencing some VR world, this IS his (post-death) world. It's just a world with game-elements but it's not a virtual reality, it's more like a purgatory but more wholesome.

This was so good.

Hype

same honestly

I don't regret seeing those spoilers.

So you joined a drama-site mainly to voice your political opinions? Maybe join in complaining about bad shows instead. I'd rather judge someone based on their acting ability instead of their identity. But who am I? Just another drama watcher on a drama site. Let me know if you have actual relevant drama-opinions for this platform sometime.

No its not needed
