Hua Yong had been dreaming of that happiness since he was sixteen. He had already chosen the name for their child, Hua Sheng, with the tender nickname Peanut. Every detail of their future lived in his heart long before it could ever become real.
One quiet afternoon while driving, Sheng Shao You casually told his brother, “I’m bringing your future in-law.” Just three words, yet those words shattered Hua Yong’s world open. His hands shook, he hit the brakes too hard, and for a moment he could not breathe. After more than fifteen years of silent love and patient waiting, Sheng Shao You finally accepted him. After so many years of carrying the weight of unspoken feelings, marriage no longer felt like a dream. It was close, tangible, real. Just three words gave his life meaning.
But love, no matter how deep, could not shield them from tragedy. Sheng Shao You had always carried his brother Shao Qing, pulling him from one disaster after another. Even when Shao Qing drowned himself in a massive gambling debt, thirty-seven million yuan, Sheng Shao You paid it for him. Shao Qing swore on his own life, swore on their mother’s life, that he would change. But he never did. Instead, he betrayed them in the cruelest way. He poisoned his own brother, and when that was not enough, he raised a knife to kill him.
Hua Yong did not hesitate. He stepped into the strike, took the blade with his own body to protect the man he loved. If that is not love, then what could ever be called love.
It was not the first betrayal. Shao Qing had once kidnapped Sheng Shao You, and even then, Hua Yong had spared him. For the sake of family, for the sake of the man he adored, he showed mercy. But this time was different. This time, Shao Qing’s hands carried the intent to murder his own blood.
Now Hua Yong stands at a breaking point. The mercy he once gave feels like a mistake. To protect Sheng Shao You, there may only be two paths left: kill Shao Qing, or destroy him so completely that he will never again have the strength to bring harm.
Either choice is soaked in tragedy. Because in the end, love was supposed to be about building a life together, dreams of breakfasts, a child named Peanut, and the simple joy of three words. Instead, Hua Yong’s love has become a shield of blood and sacrifice, standing against the very family that should have protected them.
I do have a different perspective though. Regardless of whether Odajima was asleep or pretending to be alseep or being used as a pawn, it still doesn’t give Kataoka the right to take his shirt off and sexually assault him in the car. I haven’t read the manga, so I’m basing my thoughts only on the first two episodes I’ve watched so far.
Even the second NC scene in episode 2 felt forced. I understand Odajima has a mission to accomplish, but I can’t help feeling sorry for him, he has to sacrifice himself in such a painful way.
That said, the story is interesting so far, and I’ll continue watching.
In the first 5 minutes there’s already an SA scene, with Kataoka literally riding Odajima and taking his own clothes off without permission. As a guy, I know that if you’re asleep in a car it’s impossible to just get hard and be ridden, so that intimate scene felt completely unrealistic. What bothered me more was how, when Odajima woke up, they brushed it off like nothing happened. If someone SA’d me while I was asleep, I’d demand answers regardless of whether they were my boss or not.
Then there’s the dead bird scene, which made no sense. Kataoka is shown as violent, killing and beating people up just for bumping into him, yet suddenly gentle enough to hold a dead bird all night for a child.
I want to stay positive and keep watching because this is my first Japanese mafia BL, and I was honestly happy that this series was even made. But at the end of the day, criticism is necessary so that future series can improve.
Overall, the show feels odd, but I’m trying to stay positive and keep watching since it’s only 6 episodes. That said, compared to KinnPorsche in terms of plot, scenery, and chemistry, this is nowhere near the same standard. For those expecting this to be KinnPorsche Japan, you will definitely be disappointed.
I see it differently. I do not think it was misunderstood at all. Sasin was right from the very beginning.
Before Pin’s mother passed away, she entrusted her only daughter to Sasin’s care. At the party, when Prince’s uncle created a scene, Sasin’s protective instinct only grew stronger. Later, when he entered the room, Prince’s startled reaction revealed the weight of secrets he carried.
Sasin’s suspicion was not without reason. Inside that book lay the key to a hidden treasure box, filled with assets meant to be quietly transferred. This marriage was never truly about love but about protecting the family’s legacy.
What Sasin could not have known was that the book was Prince’s final gift from his dying mother. She had once read it to him in the quiet of his childhood, and in its worn pages her voice still lingered. To Prince, it was not paper and ink but a fragile thread tying him to the memory of her love.
And so, when Sasin gathered the broken fragments and shaped them into a small rabbit, offering his apology, it became more than a gesture. It was a sorrowful attempt to heal what had been broken. A perfect act of mending, tender and aching, as if the story itself was written in tears.
But in this series, the main lead Win isn’t doing any of that. History is simply repeating itself. He briefly admitted he liked Nut, but then brushed it aside as if it meant nothing. For twenty years he regretted not confessing, and when fate gave him the chance to go back in time, he still didn’t take it. So what’s the point?
I really enjoyed the first few episodes, but now we’re at episode 8 and nothing meaningful has happened. It’s getting hard to defend this show, and honestly, my rating might drop by one or two points if things don’t change.
On the bright side, that fight scene was heartbreaking. Watching Chai shield Ek, choosing to take the blows himself rather than let Ek be harmed, was pure agony. The pain in his eyes said it all, he would rather suffer a thousand wounds than see Ek hurt even once.
But love, in its cruel beauty, always blooms in forbidden places. And so Sasin is left torn between a promise carved in sorrow and a love that feels like both salvation and sin, a quiet tragedy he must bear alone.
And now, with that wound still bleeding, his father forces him into a marriage. It’s as if his life has been written in tragedy, a boy bound in chains of grief, drowning in shadows of guilt he never deserved to bear. He is a son denied, a soul silenced.
Yet, I cannot help but believe that Sasin will be the one to heal him. The one to step into his darkness, to cradle his broken heart, and to remind him that love can still exist even after a lifetime of suffering. Perhaps Sasin will be the light that finally frees him from this endless night.
He never really stood out to me in his past guest or minor roles, but as Prince in Love in the Moonlight he is absolutely stunning. Finally, he’s in a BL as a main lead, and he’s incredible. His acting is so good, and that smile of his is just gorgeous. What a perfect, fine young man.
It’s not just TharnType, a lot of BLs I’ve watched pull this kind of wild stuff. But hands down, the weirdest one has to be this Taiwanese BL I just finished called The Promise of the Soul.
Like… imagine this: a 70-year-old grandpa who’s been straight his whole life suddenly decides, “You know what? Forget women, let’s date a guy my grandson’s age.” Sir, please, seventy years of being straight and then boom...kissing someone who could be your grandson’s age. If that’s not awkward enough, I don’t even know what is. 😂
I agree with you that being Bi exists, but it feels unrealistic if all of them turn out Bi.
Take Natcha, for example, she spent the whole season after Kan, and then at the end, she turns out to be a lesbian. Can we say she’s bi too?
I know bi is real, but it’s unrealistic to assume all characters are bi.
The beauty of BL lies in the emotional journey, the chemistry, the slow burn, and the growth between characters. Add in a well-written plot, the right music to set the tone, and beautiful cinematography, and that’s what makes a BL truly memorable.
Some of the best BLs such as Cherry Magic, Old Fashion Cupcake, and Bad Buddy became iconic without any graphic scenes. If NC scenes are the only thing a viewer is looking for, then maybe BL is simply not the right genre for them.
