That love scene in episode 6 between Peter and Pond unfolded like a dream woven in silk — tender, aching, and spellbinding.
“My second wish is to be inside you” — a line whispered like a sacred vow, heavy with longing and quiet fire.
They undressed one another with reverence, each layer falling like a secret laid bare.
Fingertips traced constellations on skin, lips met like poetry written in heat, breath, and devotion.
In that moment, time stilled — it wasn’t just desire, but two souls speaking in the language of touch.

VikiI have Viki too, but I watch on their official YouTube channel since Viki releases episodes one day later. I don’t have the patience to wait, so I got a membership on their YouTube channel for $2.99 a month.

I agree with you

Please stop promoting illegal platforms and watch this on their offical YouTube channel (STRONGBERRY) instead. The actors, crew, and creators poured their time, talent, and energy into bringing this story to life — they deserve our support, not to have their work stolen.

This series is available for FREE on YouTube. There is absolutely no excuse to promote piracy here. It’s not just unacceptable — it’s downright disrespectful to the people who made the series and to fans who actually choose to support it the right way.

Sharing illegal streaming links isn’t just unlawful. It’s a slap in the face to the entire production team. Promoting piracy doesn’t “help” anyone — it actively destroys opportunities for the creators, actors, and staff who work tirelessly to give us the content we love.

If you truly care about BL and want to see more quality series in the future, then support them through legal channels. That’s how the industry grows — and frankly, it’s the bare minimum any real fan should do.

That’s your choice to drop the drama, and I respect it. But I’m only halfway through, and I’d rather judge the full story than assume how it ends. Fiction often gives even flawed characters arcs of growth, consequences, or redemption. Either way, we clearly won’t agree, so let’s leave it here.

I don’t have time for endless back-and-forth, so I’ll end it here. You’re free to feel how you feel, and I’m free to watch what I watch. Let’s leave it at that. 👍

You don’t need to call out every other drama, true. But let’s be honest—your argument implies that any story with a character like this should be shut down without context. If we applied that logic consistently, most of cinema, TV, and literature would be cancelled. Think about Outlander, Atonement, Bridgerton, or even Revenge—all romantic dramas with assault in the storyline. Yet their arcs explore consequences, redemption, or trauma healing. Isn’t it worth waiting to see if this story does the same?
And no, “full arc” doesn’t mean I’m expecting him to magically end up in jail (this isn’t a procedural). But in fiction, full arcs often show growth, remorse, accountability, or even karmic justice. Dismissing all of that before the story finishes isn’t critique—it’s judgment without context.
Also, calling anyone who disagrees with you “PR” is a convenient way to avoid engaging with counterpoints. Not everyone watching a fictional story is defending the character’s actions. They’re just aware that messy, problematic narratives exist—and that doesn’t mean viewers support or condone them in real life.

I get it—you’re talking about the character, not the actor. But let’s be consistent here. If we’re going to judge every fictional character who’s ever committed sexual assault or any other crime and call them out, then yes, by your logic, we need to start with the thousands (actually millions) of TV shows, movies, novels, and web series worldwide where such characters exist. That’s literally every genre—romance, thrillers, action, even sitcoms. Are we going to flood pages for Outlander, Euphoria, Revenge, The Sopranos, Mad Men, Bridgerton, and hundreds of others too? Or is this outrage only reserved for BL dramas?
Fiction is full of flawed, even irredeemable characters. Some are meant to horrify us, some to challenge us, and yes, even some to grow and redeem themselves. Saying “this isn’t Game of Thrones, it’s romance” doesn’t change that—romance can and does explore messy, problematic relationships too. (Outlander literally made Jamie Fraser—a romantic hero to millions—a survivor of sexual violence and depicted marital issues and assault head on. Did we cancel him?)
The truth is, you’re absolutely free to dislike this character or drop the show. But dismissing others as “girls who think he’s alright” just because they’re willing to watch the full arc? That feels a little condescending.
And no—it’s not some PR conspiracy to remind people to separate fiction from reality. It’s just common sense. Stories are complex. Characters are not real. Actors aren’t their roles. Viewers are capable of understanding that.

It’s important to put this in context and ask: if we start refusing to engage with every fictional story where a character does something wrong, how many shows and movies would be left to watch?

Across millions of TV shows, films, and series—not just BL but Western media too—there are characters who are murderers, thieves, abusers, cheaters, liars, warlords, you name it. Are we going to stop watching Game of Thrones because Jaime Lannister committed incest and sexual assault in season 1? Should we skip Breaking Bad because Walter White becomes a drug kingpin and orders multiple murders? Should we cancel The Joker because Arthur Fleck kills people? Or refuse The Godfather because literally every character is involved in crime?

The point of fiction is often to explore human flaws, even the darkest ones, and sometimes to show redemption, consequences, or the reality of such acts. A character being written as a rapist (or murderer, or villain) doesnt mean the story glorifies them. It DOES NOT mean the audience condones their actions either. Just like watching a crime drama doesn’t mean we support crime, or enjoying a revenge thriller means we want vigilante justice.

And remember—fiction doesn’t have to be morally comfortable all the time. Some stories are meant to challenge us, make us angry, or make us think. Others simply portray flawed, messy humans. It’s perfectly fine if that’s not your preference, but calling out a show for depicting a flawed character without considering the full arc or context might be missing the point of why such characters are written.

You keep accusing the male lead of being a rapist, but I’ve watched all 9 episodes, and the only questionable moment was in episode 1 around the 32-minute mark — and that scene lasted less than 10 seconds.

Let’s be clear: the series follows the original novel very closely, and as clearly stated in the disclaimer, it’s a non-fiction dramatization. The scene you’re referring to was fully censored, with absolutely no graphic content shown.

More importantly, we didn’t even see the full scene — it was cut. You’re making a serious accusation based on an incomplete moment. What if the character was stopped? What if he fainted before anything happened? There are countless possibilities, but you’re choosing to jump to the worst assumption.

It’s irresponsible to label someone a rapist when we haven’t even seen the full context. Let’s not twist a censored, ambiguous scene into something it never confirmed to be.

I get where you're coming from, but honestly, I’m really frustrated by how you're framing this. It’s not about "downplaying" anything. The character in question is a fictional creation, and this isn't a show that glorifies abuse or any of the things you're accusing it of. This narrative is about growth, complexity, and redemption—not justifying or excusing harmful behavior.

It’s ridiculous to try and turn a character's struggles and development into an excuse to attack a whole community of viewers who understand the difference between fiction and reality. The show doesn’t paint him as a hero—it shows his flaws, his mistakes, and the consequences of his actions. If you think this is about supporting any kind of harmful behavior, then you’ve clearly missed the point of the whole story.

And the thing about supporting the queer community? What even is that connection supposed to mean in this context? The show isn’t about turning a rapist into some misunderstood lover. It’s a nuanced, dark story, and no one is sitting here calling him “cute” or defending his actions like you’re suggesting. So please, spare us the whole "safe space for offenders" argument—it’s not only inaccurate, it’s just wildly out of line.

If you want to criticize the show, fine—but stop painting everyone who watches it with this broad, ignorant brush. You can disagree with the content, but twisting it into something it’s not does a disservice to the entire discussion.

"LOL," really? Is that all you've got? Seems like instead of defending your position or offering a real response, you’re just brushing it off like it's nothing. If you actually want to have a meaningful conversation, maybe try engaging with the points made instead of throwing out empty reactions. It’s clear you can’t handle a differing opinion without resorting to childish dismissals.

Oh, so now I'm "talking to myself" because I don't just roll over and agree with you? Funny, considering your whole comment was just one long rant about how much you hate the show, calling people who enjoy it “juvenile” and “laughable.” I’m not the one making personal attacks or generalizing whole fanbases. If you can’t handle someone disagreeing with you, maybe don’t post a comment that’s practically begging for a response.

You say I’m putting words in your mouth? Maybe take a look at your own comment and see how it comes across as an unwarranted, over-the-top judgment of not just the show, but the entire genre and audience. If you’re going to go on a tirade about something, at least have the guts to own it instead of throwing the “I didn’t say that” defense.

Anyway, I’m done here. Not interested in wasting my time debating with someone who’s just here to bash for the sake of it.

REPORTED
Dear MDL Team,

I would like to report a comment made by the user "etoks21" on the "Revenge Love" show page. The comment in question is not only disrespectful, but it also promotes harmful stereotypes and insults the show and its viewers in a degrading manner.

The comment criticizes both the show and its audience in an unnecessarily hostile tone, using terms like “juvenile,” “badly acted,” and “stinky turd.” Additionally, the commenter makes derogatory remarks about the fandom, accusing fans of lacking standards and using harmful language regarding gay men and BL content. This type of language is uncalled for and does not contribute to a healthy, respectful discussion.

I believe this comment violates the platform's guidelines and should be reviewed and addressed.

First off, this comment is dripping with elitism and condescension. The sheer audacity to call a show “juvenile” and “badly acted” just because it doesn't meet some outdated, pretentious standards of what you think makes for quality TV is laughable. This isn't some high-budget, cookie-cutter drama, and frankly, that’s what makes it so refreshing. Not every show has to be some overly-polished, dull affair aimed at people who think the only “real” drama is something full of endless brooding and forced maturity.

The comment about the actors being “20-year-olds trying to play 35-year-olds” is absolutely ridiculous. This is a story about young people, with young actors, who bring authenticity to their roles. What’s next? Are we going to start criticizing all coming-of-age stories just because the actors aren’t at the age their characters are supposed to be? Get real. People are allowed to be young and explore the complexities of relationships, no matter their age. The fact that you can’t get past that is just plain narrow-minded.

And the “Disney after-school special” comment? Seriously?! This is just a lazy, dismissive jab that doesn’t even deserve a response. So what if it’s not some dark, brooding, angst-filled series? That’s exactly what makes it accessible and enjoyable for so many people. It's supposed to be fun, light-hearted, and yes, even a little cheesy. Not everything needs to have the emotional weight of a Shakespearean tragedy to be worth watching.

The whole rant about the "medical professionals" being unrealistic just reeks of someone who’s looking for something to nitpick and make themselves feel superior. The fact that you're upset because the actors aren’t exactly matching the age and experience of real-life medical professionals shows how completely lost you are on what this show is trying to achieve. It's a fictional story, not a documentary. If you’re looking for realism, maybe check out a medical drama, not a BL show.

And don’t even get me started on the condescending, backhanded “fangirls” comment. Who the hell are you to dismiss an entire group of people as mindless, drooling fans who “don’t have standards”? That kind of sexist, ageist bullshit has no place here. People enjoy these shows for a variety of reasons, and just because you don’t get it doesn’t mean their opinions are any less valid than yours. Just because it doesn’t fit your idea of “serious” entertainment doesn’t make it bad. Grow up and realize that there’s more than one way to enjoy a show.

Saying it's a "1/10" after dumping on an entire group of fans is petty, immature, and frankly, unnecessary. Maybe it’s time to check your own standards—because right now, you’re the one sounding like the “stinky turd” here.

This show has its flaws, sure, but that doesn’t make it the worst thing ever. It’s got heart, it’s got charm, and it’s clearly touching a lot of people. Just because it doesn't cater to your snobbish tastes doesn't mean it's garbage.

I understand, but how can we be sure? These days, I don’t trust everything I read online—unless it comes directly from the director, we really don’t know if it’s true or not.

In episode 5, around the 19-minute mark, there’s a kiss that wasn’t censored.

What do you mean censor ?

Chinese fighting scenes just hit different. 🔥 I love Thai, Korean, Taiwanese, and Japanese BLs, but when it comes to fight scenes, no one does it like China. 👊

Revenged Love, Addicted, and Stay With Me all come from Chai Ji Dan, so the shared style and themes are no surprise. But let’s not forget—if you’ve read Addicted (both novels, which I’ve devoured six times 😅), Gu Hai and Bai Luo Yin do get their happy ending, married and living peacefully together. The only reason Addicted and Stay With Me felt unfinished on screen was because of Chinese censorship cutting off their chance for season 2. Thankfully, Revenged Love isn’t airing in China, so there’s no such restriction this time. This time, we’re getting the ending we’ve all been waiting for.

Before any concerns are raised by animal lovers regarding Episode 9, please note that, as stated in the official disclaimer from the director, no animals were harmed or injured during the filming of this series. The blood depicted is entirely fake and used for dramatic purposes only.

My two favourite lines from Episode 9:
• Wu Suo Wei: “I actually really like you.”
• Chi Cheng: “Dabao, you’ve endured too long. Once I retrieve the snakes, you’ll suffer no more.”

These lines truly struck a chord with me—so heartfelt and warm. They perfectly captured the vulnerability and quiet devotion between them.

8.9 — Revenged Love has now claimed its throne 👑 as the highest-rated BL of all time on MDL (kisskh).

Just FYI: there are over 700+ BL series listed on MDL, so claiming the #1 spot is no easy feat. That alone speaks volumes. 👏

Truly deserved. 💯 This masterpiece is so rare—a series that had us all counting down the days 📅, hearts racing every week ❤️🔥, and somehow made 40 minutes feel like just 4.

Before turning to Kisskh which is an illegal platforms, please consider the countless hours and effort the actors, crew, and creators put into bringing this story to life. Piracy doesn’t just hurt the industry — it takes away opportunities from the very people who work hard to create the content we enjoy.

If you genuinely care about BL and want to see more high-quality productions in the future, supporting them through legal channels (Viki/Youtube) is essential. That’s how the industry grows — and it’s the least we can do as fans.
