not trying to sound condescending so sorry if it comes off that way but have you ever watched a Chinese bl before?…
Yes, I’ve watched plenty of Chinese BLs, and that’s exactly why it feels so frustrating. We know censorship is strict, but when other couples in the same series are allowed multiple kisses while SWL and Gao Tu get nothing, it feels inconsistent. Fans aren’t questioning the actors’ comfort—we can see their chemistry in BTS—but the way their story was handled on screen came off as dry compared to others. That’s where the disappointment comes from, not from blaming the actors.
No one knows the real reason why kissing scenes wasn’t included, could be alot of other things but assuming…
I get your point, but at the same time fans are frustrated for a reason. We’ve seen plenty of affection given to other couples in the same series, so it’s natural to question why SWL and Gao Tu were left without even a kiss. People aren’t blaming the actors personally—we know it’s often about direction or production choices—but ignoring the gap feels unfair to the fans who are invested in this ship.
Seriously, what is wrong with ***** when it comes to making good BL dramas? Let international fans enjoy them—it would actually help your country gain more recognition. Why impose so much censorship? You are doing well in this genre, so why hurt the authors and actors? In many ways, it’s benefiting you, yet you’re still holding it back.

Wow, I honestly didn’t know that things were this strict in China. It’s really sad to hear that even BL authors can get arrested just for writing stories. No wonder the dramas end up so restricted. It’s disappointing for fans, but at the same time, it makes me appreciate even more the effort they put in to give us something despite the risks.
Tbh I also felt a discomfort in the actors when they need to get intimate. It really looks like somebody forced…
I don’t really see discomfort with the second couple—it’s more about how their dynamic is written. For a first series, Ocean Jiang Leng who is playing S level Alpha is doing great, and their chemistry fits the tone of their story. Both couples bring different flavors, which makes the series stronger.

What is the situation with China’s censorship of the BL genre? It feels like every series is either heavily edited or stripped of romance, which makes it hard for fans to enjoy the story as it was meant to be told.
It's really too bad that the only one giving us Omegaverse is the one who is censored.
True, it’s unfortunate that the only Omegaverse drama we have is heavily censored, but I still see it as a start. At least it opened the door for this genre on screen, and hopefully other countries like Thailand, Taiwan, or Japan will pick it up and give us the uncensored version we’ve all been waiting for. The future of Omegaverse BL can only get brighter from here. 🌈✨
Huang Xing tattooed a ‘K’ on his right hand, which stands for Kipuka (Qiu), and Qiu Qiu tattooed an ice cube…
That’s a sweet interpretation, but tattoos don’t always have to symbolize romantic love. Sometimes they represent friendship, shared memories, or even just personal meaning to the individual. While their bond is strong and long-lasting, it doesn’t necessarily mean every gesture has to be tied directly to romance. Respecting their connection without forcing it into one box makes it even more genuine.

They signed up for BL, not a friendship drama. Intimacy is part of the deal. Also, if every serious expression looked like discomfort, half the dramas we love wouldn’t exist.
This is not broadcast in China, but probably the producers did not want to create a hype in the Chinese platforms…
When there are so many restrictions on making BL in China, then why make it at all and raise our hopes? As fans, we want to see it without restrictions. Period.
Actors knew the genre before signing on. If they can’t handle a kiss, it’s unfair to the story and the fans. Plenty of actors in BL kiss without issue. If you don’t want to, maybe don’t take the role. A BL without kisses feels incomplete. Censorship is already hard enough, and now even kissing is being restricted too by actors. Ugh 😩
He loved it. There is nothing that SSY does that HY does not love.
Not really—Hua Yong doesn’t ‘love’ everything SSY does. Half the time he just endures it because he’s powerless against him. That’s not love, that’s control and manipulation.
They gave SSY and Hua Yong plenty of kiss scenes, but not a single one for SWL and Gao Tu. Oh, for God’s sake—Gao Tu even had two children with SWL, and yet we didn’t get a kiss? That’s simply torture. Just look at Gao Tu’s luscious lips—how could they not give us at least one kiss scene?
