Damn. Is it just me or does Bright has a resemblance to the actor Park Sung Hoon?? who played the psychotic serial killer in the Kdrama Diary of a Psychopath
Are you referring to my comment? The issue is not that serious. It's fiction after all. Complaining about the…
Nah man. I'm not making your comment a huge deal. It's true though, that people love stereotypes and you can't change their desires. They will always look for it in every media. But I'm taking your comment as an example to link and connect it to the people I have encountered on other socmeds, especially on FB which are extremely problematic. When they start to trash this series, and I mean in a very aggressive way without basing it on the plot, you know there's real real problem. Especially if it's gay. Especially, if those comments are from the straights. As you can see in that comment, I keep talking about other people's (problematic) comments about this show rather than you. It is because I want to point out that their actions are going to the extreme, and it still contributes to real life issues. No matter how fictional it is, they can somehow project those behaviors to reality. (You can name already those people doing it, based from their real life stories they shared online). That itself becomes invasive soon. That's why even if no one listens to your rant, it's still not futile to educate. You might not know you can change others. You might be deemed as serious and too strict in here but since we have freedom of speech, why not stop restraining ourselves on what we want to share to others. They are not even harmful but rather informative. A population might agree lol.
Finally, don't worry, I already edited my comment. I'm taking another reference. You can delete this comment if you want, and I'll delete this too.
Tbh, I don't care mostly about their position. Sure, it's nice to see more representation when it comes to receivers not just always being feminine, weak, dumb, a damsel in distress or perhaps submissive. They are usually cause by writers' lack of knowledge since most mlm content are not even written by mlms themselves. They don't know the real gay culture since they are not even gay. Those are the results of their fetishistic imaginations only. But the problem about those comments on FB (god! I hate them so much) is that it still gives a stereotypical narrative. When people categorize Ayan and Akk, they instantly still follow the "height matters" rule, even though it doesn't contribute to their intimacy at all. Some people on twitter cannot believe it's AyanAkk. Because when you are shorter than your partner, apparently you can only be identified as two ways: either you are a feminine bottom or the aggressive; more manly bottom. What if he's aggressive, manly and short. He can still be a top too duh. I have even seen on FB which is a comment from a guy; he said that this was the worst BL ever created since Ayan looks like he's the top. I was so mad furious about it lol. I actually fought with him too hahaha, since it shows that they don't really care about the plot. They just want to see two guys eating each others' souls out added with the stereotypical appearances. Not to mention, it's actually confirmed in the novel, and it's nice to have this kind of representation too. In BLs, short guys are usually partnered with the taller ones for easier "identification" 🤮 Still a stereotypical matter itself. Some people can accept tall guys as a top even if he is feminine and soft. Moreover, if aggressive, and manly, and cold while being tall and as top can be a bonus for fujoshits. Yet if we discuss this matter to short guys, most people will be shock and often disappointed that they're the top; can't accept how they're written. Even some people on soc-med wishes that they don't follow the novel as AyanAkk.
Edit: In conclusion, FB people are the most infuriating community I have ever seen in my life. Proven and tested lol
Wat was so right when he said that adults don't let their face lose when it comes to arguments. Even if they're wrong, they will still find ways to prove that those words matter and that they should be reinforced by everyone. This is where gaslighting comes. And when you dictate to them that those statements are completely unjust, they will start to use the "I'm an adult! If you have respect/morals you shouldn't be talking to old people like that" card. Imo, Ack's solution was kind of justifiable when he took the side of the teacher just to avoid further chaos. Though, we should change this behavior, so that these adults can be educated. They need to be humbled!
Edit: The way Ack confides with Teacher Waree's opinion can be somewhat interpreted in two ways. It's either he genuinely wants to dispel the tension between Ayan, Wat, and Waree. Save them from getting more sermons. Or it could also be that he just wants to overthrow Ayan's disposition and humiliate him by taking the side of the teacher, thinking that numbers can outweigh facts and meanings, and the truth. But then, he fuck-up so bad when Khan got mad, so he disguise what he did as some sort of "protecting friends too"
Why did I even started this while it's airing ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ The amount of suspense and unanswered questions I have for this show is killing meee. I did not expect to eagerly watch a Thai BL show again in a long time. Though, they were the roots why I started to like BLs, they just gave me lots of second-hand embarrassment ngl. Not to mention, those many plotlines that are poorly executed, as well as series that seems very fetishey/heteronormative. But, here I am and I'm happy to be back lol. I hope they'll make more coming-of-age BL series or this type of shit since they usually put realistic representation of queer people (reducing how turned-off I sometimes get for their BL shows). Character wise, I love Ayan (my favorite), and Khaotung really nailed it. Saw him in other shows before and he never disappoints. When he can tear-up easily, you just gotta know that he's a good actor lol. First is amazing. His expressions are onpoint. Never seen him in other dramas, yet I already love this man hahah. On the note of sound effects, indeed it was very annoying, and obnoxiously too loud; I can't seem to hear them talking anymore lol. And yep, sound-mixing needs to be fixed asap. Overall, I'm in love. There may be issues, but this will be my new therapy aid every Friday since my school will resume again. HELP ðŸ˜
Scroll down and you’ll have your answer -including loud announcements who people are ‘shipping’ and stalkerish…
fr fr Can't agree with you more. I've actually never seen such overfixation to a dating show before. Like I'm shock! I mean it's eye-opening to SK but the amount of times that this is more trending, talk-about, and popular than the reality show "Merry Queer" which showcases queer diversity tells very much how "these" people sees our community. Mostly just fetishizes MLM; drools over gay men interaction, or the other way around. And since the men here are actually gay than those BL shows, where the actors' orientations are not specifically laid-out, they thought they'll actually be one step close to their "Ultimate Real BL Fantasy Ship" to come into real life which is f***king disgusting.

lol I have seen them here already. A lot actually. They just don't know that they're doing it. They're also on twitter. I really don't understand how they're so obssessed with them, like stalking on their instas. I would understand if they're the casts for a series but it's a reality show bruh. Not to mentioned, the shipping that fits what a cishet straight girl would ship for their BL fantasies - e.g. a very stereotypical manly guy x feminine guy which are showing on these watchers. They're real people, they're on the dating show to find true love!! Honestly, some users here masked their comments to look like they're supporting these contestants for who'll they choose, but in reality they're just so obssesed and craving with these gay guys interactions. You know "real BL" entertainment is what they'll say.
