About rarely shown kisses: Generally, people in Asia are conservative. This is not a subjective feeling, but a…
Thai lakorns are even more conservative than Japan and Korea. But you've got to give Taiwanese dramas credit for steamy kisses. They have the best kissing scenes in Asian dramas' perhaps. Thailand isn't exactly that conservative but their lakorns are. You can't be conservative when rape rate is over the top and rape punishment is so little compared to other countries and crimes.
There are good gems in lakorns, I only said it's rare to find great masterpieces.

I was fooled by Full House Thai version lol. I found it so great that I wanted to discover Thai dramas. The most…
For those seeking something like Full House, they really shouldn't take slap kiss lakorns as their next stop. There are plenty of romantic comedies to choose from.
@Panda-san: As I said, you can discover lakorns without running into dramas that contain rape; romantic comedies, family and periodic dramas are also a great substitute.
