I'm really liking this drama so far. I kind of wish the majority of BLs were this short, because it'd be so much easier for me to keep up with all the ones I'm currently watching and planning on watching! Also, mainstream Korean BLs may not have the steamiest love scenes (I say "mainstream" because there's lesser known Korean gay content on Gagaoolala that's much more explicit -- "Going South" being a good example), but they make up for it with good acting and writing â¤ī¸
It's odd to me that these BL's portray gay sex as so straight forward and beautiful and not painful and these…
I agree with this 100%! In so many BL's, a guy has sex for the first time, then afterwards he's walking around and plopping down on the couch like it ain't no thing.
I know it's fiction, but when a series ends with a main character going abroad (usually to the U.S.), it frustrates me (hello "We Best Love" and "Dark Blue and Moonlight"!). The implication is that the other partner will wait for them, which to me is unrealistic (especially for a stereotypical man). I know I may be worrying too soon, but if Mangkorn does go to America and Yai stays in Thailand, I will take comfort in the knowledge that they are both rich enough to visit each other a couple of times a year âī¸
I really love Zee, which is why I was excited about this series. NuNew is a really talented new actor, but I just didn't care for them as a couple. Nunew's character acts so immature, that when Zee's character is with him, to me it's like he's with a minor.
I have a doubt is yai and mogkorn both are bisexual!?
I took it that they were both straight "womanizers" until they got with each other. Then again, did Nine get some sort of "vibe" from Yai in order to think it'd be okay to kiss him?
The series was basically p*rn with a little of plot (the longest and additionally craziest plot point was MALE…
Wow, that first plot you mentioned is just beyond ridiculous -- I sure hope that's not in the drama! I was just hoping to see more love scenes, but I guess there's time for that. I appreciate you letting me know how off the wall the book is.
Usually when characters pout, I cringe; but Yai doing it was so freaking cute! I practically ascended when he was wearing that black hoodie at the skate park đ
I think Hong picked up on there being something between Mangkorn and Yai, and I loved how Mangkorn was waiting for him later on. Mangkorn looked kind of guilty when Yai saw him with that girl -- like he knows there's something unspoken between the two of them. The fathers got on my nerves as usual, and Park and Pong are just waiting to happen.
I've seen comments about the novel being sex, sex, and more sex. I think the series overcorrected on this âšī¸
Those goofy fathers thinking they're doing a good thing by arranging a marriage between their kids really chapped my ass! It seems like in the trailer, Mangkorn's "fiance" has a girlfriend, right? I hope she and Mangkorn ultimately get to be with the ones they love, fathers be damned âī¸
Park and Pong are more like the silly friends it seems required for every hot guy to have, rather than bodyguards. I get that they're the comic relief, but I sure won't mind if they go the route of the Unforgotten Night bodyguards đ
Mangkorn kinda reminds me of I.M from Monsta X đ
Mangkorn getting out of the pool -- I had to rewind that several times! I also liked Yai's expression when he saw Mangkorn talking to a woman at the party.
How did Park and Pong ever get hired as bodyguards? They make funny sidekicks, though.
I liked how this show actually acknowledged that anal sex hurts (especially the first time). I know that the characters aren't REALLY doing it (and BL isn't necessarily going for realism), but it always makes me wince when guys on other series have sex, and soon afterwards the one on the receiving end walks around and sits down like it ain't no thing.
That being said, I do hope "Bed Friends" -- which seems to also have a friends-with-benefits concept -- will be better đ¤
