Are you quite alright? Why would anyone happily boast about going out of their way to leave disparaging comments of a series on the positive comments of others?

I ended up encountered your unsolicited disparaging replies-- not merely stating your opinion, as you claimed, but you verbally ripping and ridiculing-- on multiple users' comment threads.

THESE ARE SOME OF YOUR "OPINIONS"-- ALL UNSOLICITED:
* "omegaverse is a fandom felony, and its fans trigger every alarm I have"
* "omegaverse is a cesspool of obscenity"
* "I’m the sunshine that melts your ice cream"
* "I work, relax, and spar with internet goblins for sport."
* In response to the query from another user as to why you're here, you wrote, "To balance out the positivity with a healthy dose of cynicism." I could almost taste your glee in your reply. It was disturbing.

AS FOR THIS REPLY:
* "Do you apply this "pissing" metaphor to all opinions, negative and positive, or just the ones that differ from your own?"

You traveled well and truly beyond the line of leaving an opinion. You crossed into badgering and harassment. If you wanted to share your opinion, whether negative or positive, you could easily have posted multiple comments of your own, instead of unloading them on the replies of others.

I'm not a big fan of omegaverse stories, but I can't imagine wasting my time verbally fencing with strangers to let them know this. Doing so reeks of such a desperate need for attention that even negative causes for it alleviate the need.

May I make a suggestion? You can take it or leave it. Get some good friends-- or even one-- who you can talk to, and share with them, from your heart, about what's going on with you. Go outside and take long walks, preferably out in the peace and quiet of nature. Find positive reasons to laugh and love. What you're currently doing with your time is incredibly unhealthy and a glaring neon sign that you're struggling mentally.

Someone politely writing that they're bored with a show and that the acting isn't for them isn't insulting. It's honest. If only the people who like something are allowed to share their opinions, then that's promoting a false narrative.

The show has an 8.7 overall rating. That's great! But, that also means there exists a small group of viewers who do not resonate with this type of work and guess what? That's fine.

You get to share your unsolicited opinion, not just about the show, but you're doing so under E_Maya's comment. In this instance, do you consider yourself more special and acceptable than them?

Yes! Lee Jae-wook also keeps being paired with older actresses. He also possesses a steady and mature presence.

ONE QUESTION: How does Wang Xing Yue project such maturity and emotional composure at his young age? He's currently 23, which means he was 21 while filming this series. Every series I've watched him in, he's been paired up with a female lead who is older than him, either by a little or a lot, yet he's never seemed overshadowed by them. Either he's a very gifted actor who's able to truly embody his characters-- regardless of their age-- or the female leads are very good at matching his energy, so the characters appear to be well-suited. Either way, I'm still left a bit baffled as to how he does it, as he usually feels like the most emotionally mature character in any room.

Lashing out at others is the a clear sign of emotional instability. It's OK to admit you're sad and filled with fear.

Reading your comments grew increasingly disturbing. Yikes!

Did you miss the implication that the king is impotent? Yes, he prefers males, but he also CAN'T have intercourse with his wife.

There is rarely true love present when one person has all the power and another is bound by duty to never say no. In that instance, it's irrelevant that they're both men. Hong Rim happened to be a heterosexual who was given to another before he ever had a chance to learn what his preferences were. He was essentially forced to fulfill the needs of another physically and emotionally and when he was presented with a taste of what his body-- not necessarily his heart-- craved, he was like a randy teenager acting on hormonal imperatives instead of good sense.

Sexuality is used as a means to tell the story, but it's basically irrelevant, just as it was in the story of King Arthur, Guinevere and Lancelot's love triangle that led to disaster for all 3, as well as the downfall of King Arthur's court.

By the bye, my take away from the movie is that while Hong Rim was strongly physically attracted to the Queen No Guk, he was also deeply in love with King Gong Min . That love, though, was problematic. due to their being an ever-present lopsided power dynamic. Hong Rim had never been allowed a real choice in the relationship. Yes, he did choose to join the king as a companion, but that occurred while he was a little boy and the king was a teenager. There's no way Hong Rim would have been cognizant of what that meant and by the time the relationship had shifted to something sexual, he would have been the king's companion for years and lacked an opportunity to learn what his real sexual preferences were. Despite how much he loved the King, it turned out his body preferred that of a woman's. This isn't an unusual dynamic, in any type of relationship. Husbands and wives cheat on each other all the time. Even as they genuinely love their partners, they can be drawn to others purely on an animalistic level and end up ruining their lives because they mistake strong sexual attraction for emotional and personality compatibility. The people they often destroy their happy marriages for rarely end up being good life partners for them.

For Hong Rim and King Gong Min, things spiraled WAY out of control. The King was heartbroken, as a man, and enraged as a king, so he went cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs, punishing them all, lying about the Queen's death and eventually participating in what was essentially a double murder-suicide. Hong Rim was also heartbroken and lied to the King that he'd never loved him, because that's the only thing he had left that would devastate the king. At the end, though, when the Queen was dragged away and Hong Rim laid there dying, notice that Hong Rim turns away from watching the Queen being taken away and he turned his eyes, lovingly, toward the King. Why was that? It's because the king was always his true love and once he learned that the Queen and the child she carried for him were still alive, he was finally able to let go of his anger and the last thing he wanted to see was the person he loved.

You watched the movie, yet missed very key details. Maybe your need to judge outweighs your willingness to empathize, learn and discern?

Ah! I wonder how many viewers had the same confusion I did. The first seconds of the video has a character speaking, but no English subs.

Filmed in Hong Kong. I'm guessing different censorship rules apply.

No subtitles available on the videos, though.

Ah. I see that you have been pestering others, though you're not necessarily being rude, you are being unnecessarily badgering with your overzealous need to put down the work of Boss and Noeul. The young men are doing good work. Instead of popping onto others' comments that enjoy their work, can you not just let others have their opinions? Every comment doesn't require your negating response. Just move along and allow others to express their joy, yes?

"If you are in support of all these, and choose to make me the bad guy, thenbyou fall under the toxic stan category I commented about in my first comment,"

You're looking for fights where there are none. Nowhere in my comments to you would you have been provided valid reason to believe this of me, yet here you are making accusations. This is a sign of something not being quite well with you, but I do hope you're well, otherwise,

Good day, child.

No, dear, I am not confused.

I haven't witnessed the bullying you're referring to, so I can't speak on it.

Regarding the "delusional shipper" accusation, yes, that was harsh, especially if it's legitimately not applicable to you; but, this is such a prevalent issue in the BL community that it's grown into a sickness that's eating the actors alive and will likely end up destroying the industry if it isn't brought under control. Outside of the Thai BL community, actors are encouraged to pair with multiple acting partners, as that's the best way to ensure their professional and personal growth. The way Thailand handles this is incredibly crippling to these young people and the fans who push for this continued practice are often emotionally unhealthy individuals who developed obsessive parasocial bonds with these pairings.

As for you claiming you haven't insulted anyone-- I suppose you're not able to discern that your manner of replying has crossed into the very type of discourse you're accusing KJTBOY of. Sometimes, I've fallen prey to this, myself. Whenever I begin to communicate in the same manner of those I dislike, that's when I know it's time for me to take a break from social media.

I agreed with most of what you wrote, except for "BossNoeul chemistry is not as strong as you described." They most definitely do have very strong chemistry, BUT if they're both good actors on their own, they can generate incredible chemistry with other actors, those who have the right intangibles traits that sync up well with them. Chemistry isn't something that is automatic. Two brilliant actors can have the chemistry of dry flour-- bland and awful to swallow. This is why chemistry screen tests are usually done as part of the final process to hiring actors for a projects. Each actor can do stellar auditions, but when paired together they're boring.

You're really going on tangents and insulting people, as though being nasty is in fashion. Are you alright?

My stubborn will to try and finish every book and series I begin led me to what was essentially self-induced torture. You were much better off tapping out at episode 5. 😅

Yes, superficial and intellectually lazy. Honestly, you can do better with your insults, can't you? Try again, child. I'm rooting for you.

I didn't respond merely to drop senseless words under your comment. My reply was in direct reference to what you wrote, offering a different perspective. Yes, it IS possible to get actors who look the part, but often those actors are rubbish at acting. Instead of focusing on superficial appearances, how about allowing the characters to be brought to life by the actors who are playing the parts?

Honestly, you're seemingly hyper-focused on humans matching cartoon appearances. Maybe nuance dialogs and perspectives don't interest you, which is fine.

Ciao.

Yes! Their drinking culture is absurd. I can't count how many series I've watched that depict the characters drinking until they can barely walk. It appears to be a national pastime to gorge on alcohol beyond the point of reason; yet, someone can lose their career for puffing on grass or treating depression with prescription drugs? What type of foolishness is that?
