Still, Now I'm not so bothered that the series is not a bl. I would have felt so uncomfortable due to the age…
Bécause it is a fantasy and the guy isn't human. Same with twilight or any other drama with Supernatural love interest. It's not real and it will never happen.
Unlike a romance between a 47yr old adult human and a "19" (this is in Korean age, so the guy really is 17) yr old human minor which very much possible and illegal to boot.
Korea is not as progressive as they appear to be. They held anti LGBT protest recently too
People forgot the just because they make a few gay web dramas, doesn't mean they are progressive about same sex issues..hell, this is the same country where female celebs are cancelled just for holding a "feminist" book.
Also, K-bl is a very new infant industry. Where You Eyes Linger is literally the first kbl (which wasnt a depressing indie art-film with unhappy ending). And it came out in 2020.
they'll say the author didn't know that they would adapt this into a friendship drama as if they know her personally…
It's not a creators job to do jack. Artists make stories they want, that's their artistic freedom. If someone wants yo consume that art, great. If not, great.
Also, wtf are u talking about? It would be a legal discourse if the author sent a C&D to every person who spoke against the adaptation. She didn't. I don't think even knows or cares about your existence or this thread. As an author, who owns the IP, is her legal right to sell work to whoever she pleases. U don't have a LEGAL right to speak against it any more than she does to stop you.
That said, if u saying that artists and creators should cater to special snowflakes then that's on you, because nobody owes you anything.

It's HER story, HER IP. She can so whatever with it. As much I hate JKR for heroifying that child groomer Dumbledore or hate the fact Ron-Hermonine ended up together, I have no say in HER story or she chooses to do with them. Even that stupidass Eigth Scroll or whatever the sequel play was called (which hurt my sentiments) again, it's her right to fuck with her own characters in whatever way SHE pleases.
Just because an artist releases their book, music, art into the world doesn't mean they stop having rights on it.
If the author wanted to sell her story to a homophobic producer and adapt a bromance from it, that's entirely her business.
That "kpop quiz" in ep 5 was more forced than Oishi product placements in GMMTV bls. Shame the leads couldn't plug their own groups/companies as well.
That said, I kinda like Yeonji. I like how she just accepts the new Yiheon as some rustic transfer student who took 2 years to settle into his new environment.
Same. I think because we what the two fl and guessing sml be together. Doing so the ML disappears..since he the…
U cant say let things run course when she died young and left her son to live a hard life. The decision he made, was not just for her but also for himself. He deserves a loving family/parents, as much as she deserves a good husband.
I couldn't remember the name, so I had to search it up.
