His family is so embarrassing and shameless. They can't stop milking having sold Xiao Fan to the Bei, now even daring to force themselves into their house.
I really enjoyed it until the time skip. Since then it feels like a different drama. I still love them as characters I'm just bored with the plot. I just couldn't care case about the audit stuff or whatever they're doing in general.
This will always be one of my favorite BLs, as I've rewatched all the released parts many, many times and the rewatch value still stands. Having experienced it so many times and still feeling the same about it shows how powerful it is.
Couldn't agree more! I was really looking forward to this drama, and I was going through the comments here to…
Yes, I didn't like it either how they kept calling each other cousins, it was so unnecessary.
One one hand I understand the writers are restricted creatively and they don't have a lot of ways of creating "forbidden love" / "dark romance" plots because of the censorship but I'm not happy they settled the pseudo-family loophole to create high-stake dramas.

"Cultural imperialism", oh my, the baby learned big words today. Targeting this at someone born and raised in a country colonized by waves of conquerors in hundreds of years, it's so funny. Imagine seeing yourself as a know-it-all on Chinese culture because you watched a couple of C-dramas. "Incest" romance is not a Chinese cultural particularity, you can find this type of stories everywhere.

I said "incest type" meaning it's not in a literal sense. It's akin to incest. Similar, not identical.
I don't think I called anybody a "sicko" in this thread. If you feel like a sicko for watching this, that's your feelings to deal with. Just like teacher - student relationships shouldn't be encouraged because of the detrimental effects on the students, there's also a reason why most people don't get into romantic relationships with people from their familial circle, it's not exactly a dynamic encouraged in any culture for that matter and it's a little weird it's pushed so much in dramas this year. From my point of view.
I have watched the first 3 episodes of it to see exactly what kind if relationship they have and I've seen enough. They have enough of a siblings dynamic to make this an uncomfortable watch.
I watched 2 episodes and it said the parents never got married so legally they're not step siblings. They also…
Not being legally married doesn't change anything for me. The parents are still in a romantic relationship and they started when the kids were so young. The fact that they move him to a dorm makes things a little better but it's just because they wanted to sanitize the novel for fear of backlash, they did the same with not making the parents married here. I, personally, can't get over their familial status.
That’s a lot of words dedicated to a show you are not even going to watch in the first place. If a trope bothers…
I was planning on watching it because on Viki the synopsis was misleading. It said "childhood friends". So I was unpleasantly surprised when I started watching it and found out they were actually step siblings. So I won't continue with it. I guess they're going to be incentivized to continue making these Wattpad type of stories if there are so many people eager to eat these up.
