This non-con is getting ridiculous

Holy shit what an absolute egregious waste of a show. I had been hearing people SCREAMING for this so I said I’d give it a go… Why did I do that. This was just a fantastical combination of the worst things you would want in a romance drama BL aside. What is it with China and the fucking non-consensual bullshit? What the fuck? I watched it in Revenge Love. I watched it in several other fucking Chinese dramas that I can't think of the name of. Why are they so big on the non-consensual bullshit? Stop it.
The premise of this show is beyond ridiculous. Why are they trying to make two actors live together, practicing in their own time, and then shaming Zhang Zhun for not wanting to? Absolutely not. And then saying “Oh, well, if it feels good, then it feels good.” Um no??? If you're practicing, you should be practicing with an intimacy coordinator, not by yourselves in your fucking shared hotel room. It just seems so insane and unprofessional to pull from? I feel like intimacy coordinators probably aren’t as known about as they should be, ESPECIALLY when i see some twerps in the comments saying ‘oh this is definitely not acting’ or ‘this feels like self service not fan service’ brother that is the POINT YOU FUCKING IDIOTS. that’s the WHOLE SELLING POINT. So this kinda feels like some adaptation of some writer going ooooh let’s make these actors live together for 2 weeks to build chemistry and practice scenesss togetherrrr. oh BROTHER THIS GUY STINKS.
Another thing.. what is with this focus on breathing in intimate scenes? The only thing I’m hearing is LOUD ASS BREATHING and I’m gonna need everyone to BACK UP from the mic. I know the issue is with the dubbing but could we not have fixed this bullshit by now? China has been doing this forever and we still haven’t found a way of making the dubbing seem somewhat convincing? Instead I’m getting them breathing in my ear as ‘sounding sexy’ when if just sounds like bad asmr with actors who use vocal fry for a living.
Like why are they have sex when Zhen Xin’s aware that Zhang Zhun’s drunk? Why are you TAKING PHOTOS??? WHY IS EVERYONE SO OKAY WITH THIS??? All this bullshit just to get completely ignored when the main lead gets together. And the cheating? I’m fucking doneeeee.
I love this concept in dramas but if I see another rape-y, non consensual scene, I’m going to start hunting people down. It’s so unfortunate like why can’t we make this concept but not… morally wrong?
I’m sorry, I tried but this was scene after scene of non-con and it just ain’t working for me.
