Why is it so dragged out and boring and childish? And why do we need a part 2 if it has 16 episodes? Does it mean the last two couples from the poster will be in a second season?
Too realistic. Again... because of "Happy of the End", "Love in the Big City" and "Let Free of the Curse of Taekwando" where the first is too dark for a BL, the second is a gay drama and the thrid is also more a gay drama than a BL. Imho.
It's not a BL, it's a gay drama ... very big difference imho.
disagree... 1.happens in real life. 2.direction is not a reason as well 3.does not feel like a replacement 4.happens also in real life 5.also happens in real life, besides it was not in the bitchiest way possible and was resolved fast

That point has nothing to do with the discussion. And "Queer as Folk" from Channel 4 in UK released the first gay drama in 1999 before BL was a word in the western world. The same series got an remake for the US a year later but with an extended story (83 Episdes in 5 seasons). And they were created by men. Just saying.

The discussion is not about the genre of the "normal" romances. It's a discussion what the difference between a BL and gay drama is. BLs are unrealistic, a fantasy for fangirls. It does not mean they are bad, they are just different.

BL = fantasy written by women for women gay drama = realistic written from anyone for everyone I see no fantasy-like story elements in this amazing series. "Love in the Big City" is also not a BL, it's also a gay drama written (omg!) by a gay man... Of course there are nowadays shows which are a blend of BL and gay drama but this is not one of them.

The first couple also did take too long to get together... Poor Earth & Pond wasting their time with such roles....
They would have done both in 16 episodes imho....

?SYNtAX ERROR a computer would say.
For me it's a gay drama and has nothing to do with a typical BL.
1.happens in real life.
2.direction is not a reason as well
3.does not feel like a replacement
4.happens also in real life
5.also happens in real life, besides it was not in the bitchiest way possible and was resolved fast
