BL fans never decline the internalized mysoginy allegation bc wtf he’s acting like a princess and not. prince?…
Misogyny?! I don't see anything misogynistic about my comment. Also accusing me and other BL fans of misogyny whether internalised or otherwise is harsh and inconsiderate. Princess Ava is strong, competitive and beautiful. She's an absolute diva and I thought Khanin would be too. However, his character took a different path after arriving to Emmaly, in which he was behaving like a spoiled princess chasing his royal guard instead of proving himself as the next prince. This has nothing to do with the depiction of feminine men in BL world or any other type of art.
well I suppose there's absolutely no point in talking about the utterly stupid decision made by Alan just to avoid surgery and save Dean 🤦🏻♀️. I'm absolutely done with this story
The character khanin was always a cunty character. He was one in the novel and he is one on the series. Im a little…
Of course Khanin gave me the impression that he's a diva and I liked that at the beginning! I was getting ready to follow the story and see where it'll take me but all of the sudden he turned into a school girl in fancy dresses, literally, who sees nothing but Charan and does nothing but chase him around! Charan, mind you, sounded a bit irritated at first. and it's not like we got the chance to see how their relationship develop into a romance just like you described. Personally I can't make any references to the novel because I haven't read it and I'm not planning to. I'm only expressing my opinion about the show and why I'm disappointed after that long wait.
His assistant did tell him to force himself on Wei if Wei wouldn't sleep with him and Chi Cheng refused and has…
Gosh! This type of writing really gives me the creeps 😵💫.. I'm not a "dark romance" reader nor do I accept it in a fictional form of any kind! But that's just me, I don't know how others perceive this concept!
Everyone under the sun thinking Chi cheng is the greatest gift to BL world these days and here i am making heart…
Girl, I'm over here making googly eyes whenever Shuai shows up on my screen 🫠... like sir! where did you get them kissable lips 💋.... I'm so head over heels in love with that cutie patotie and I'm not sorry. I only want more screen time of him and ChengYu .. I feel like their first kiss is gon be fire and I'll be screaming like a banshee 🤣🤣
With that been said, I'd like to address something that's been heavy on my mind since episode 10. Pretty sure I read the subtitles and Chi was saying he doesn't want to "force" himself on Wei 😳! ... Oh I'm sorry! Is that really an option! I don't normally watch CDramas but.. WTF! Is that what he was doing with ChengYu's previous lovers?! kidnap them and force them?! And what's that talk about him taking Shuai instead 🤯?! could somebody please tell me I'm stupid and I misunderstood, because the alternative is not sitting right with me at all 🤨!!! what are we watching here?! OZ! 😮
Imma need y'all to spit behind your left shoulder, knock on wood, throw some salt or something so you won't jinx this series with y'all comments about banning, alright?! I hope I made myself clear 🤨
I didn't read the book but plan to as soon as the series is over. But from the way it was promoted it's the story…
trust me I'm not disputing any of that. I just don't find consistency in the way Tharin's character is marginalised in the series. It doesn't make sense to me how a father is not taking interest in his son's life especially that he didn't know he was alive! Moreover his future as a king is dependent on him. Also how did Khanin move on from the loss of the man who raised him to completely forgetting about his death!? Pretty sure he told Charan he wanted to find out who murdered him, that is if he was actually dead. The story is a bit weak in my opinion 😕

From what I've seen the series so far has been more focused on Khanin's pursuit of Charan. But since the bane of Khanin's existence is the Royal Competition you'd except his father to be more interested in him! instead he hardly ever interacts with him! If I was a father who'd just been reunited with my long lost son, whom I thought was dead all his life, I wouldn't leave the task of teaching him about Emmaly's history to Chakri, his servant! I would take every opportunity I have to prepare him for the competition and supervise his training. Just a thought I guess 🤷🏻♀️
I agree with you. That's why: Dropped. The story of the main roles is so unnecessary that you say, 'why am I watching…
exactly 💯 I dropped it too. I'd rather be watching something that actually make sense. I hardly have time for myself these days and I'd rather watch something that's not boring. I only wanted to share my disappointment here because of the long wait and the hype this series received before it finally aired 🫤
The character khanin was always a cunty character. He was one in the novel and he is one on the series. Im a little…
I honestly don't think I'm the one who'd built an image in my head of what Khanin's character should have been like especially that I've never read the novel. Khanin was indeed presented to us through the first few episodes exactly how I described him. He was passionate about fencing. He got offended when Charan criticised his technique! And I got really excited thinking I'm about to see some push and pull between them two before they actually fall in love! something that might have resembled what we saw in Never Let me Go. Instead, that's what we got 🤷🏻♀️

Exactly my point! Thank you so much 💓 The hype this series received was so strong. I went from being excited and intrigued about the show, to fast forwarding here and there 😒
TBH, the worst bit was the long wait! It is literally a big budget series with a story that goes absolutely nowhere 😒. The first few episodes were so misleading as well as the trailer! We saw Khanin competing fiercely in fencing, very weary of Charan and how he just appeared in his life! I'd expected a bit more push and pull in their relationship because of that. Imagine someone shows up out of nowhere, tells you you're a prince in some magical land somewhere in the world. He then proceeds to kidnap you while armed and dangerous men shoot your father 🤯! I would've expected Khanin to be hell bent on finding out who was behind all that and what happened to the man he used to call "father" since he was a baby! Instead, all of the sudden, he starts behaving like a spoiled little princess! the only thing that mattered to him was to get Charan! Of course he gets jealous and competitive here and there when he meets with Ramil .. but that's about it! Also Khanins biological father had the most lukewarm reaction I've ever seen in a Drama when he found out his ONLY FREAKING SON! was alive after he thought he was dead since he was a baby! you'd think he'd want to spend every waking moment with his him! you'd think he'd want to make up for all the time he'd lost and try to get to know Khanin and who he is! Instead we hardly ever see him with Khanin. their time together was extremely short and wasn't even implied in this series! Someone just tried to murder your long lost son before he arrived to the kingdom! you'd think he'd investigate or go after the culprits! But no... invisible powers are still trying to assassinate the next prince and yet the entire focus of the series is the romance between Khanin and Charan! Tell you what, no amount of chemistry or NC scenes can make up for a good story and a reasonable narrative in my book 😒.
I'm so disappointed with The series after that long wait 🫤 First of all, I dont know about y'all but when watching a BL series I like to see two men fall in love! In this one, however, I feel like Nunew is playing the character as if he was a princess and not a prince! The shift in his character from when he moved from the UK to Emmaly was quite abrupt and unrealistic. All of the sudden, he turned from this confident young London boy to a spoiled princess whose main purpose in life is to chase after Charan! And when he doesn't get what he wants he throws tantrums complaining to his grandfather and uses his title to force Charan to babysit him! We no longer see him passionate about fencing the way he was before, he's not chasing the truth about what happened to his father. Imo, I don't feel like I'm watching two men falling in love, I'm watching a royal guard and a spoiled princess and I'm not enjoying this 😕
What was the point of Wi Hajoon making it into the complex and then just leaving? What a waste of his character…
Tenacity pays off.. At the end, the authorities (and I use that term loosely) were alerted to the existence of those games. Before that everyone thought he was hallucinating after his near death experience. Detective Hwang was your typical good cop who also didn't even suspect that shady captain for all those years believing he'd truly saved his life! it took a thug like Yo Seok to sus him out and start digging. It took him 3 days to realise what detective Hwang didn't realise in 3 years.. why? because it takes one to figure out one.
