I’m not sorry. I said what I said. If you want to interpret it that way that is your choice but I’m not arguing with you.

This GL was almost near perfect until this episode when Lalin encouraged Arisa to forgive her abusive father and to hold on to the good memories. There were no good memories the moment that man abused her mum. He caused a lot of pain and suffering during his life and in death and I need this GL trope of forgiving abusers to stop. If you are a “good father” but abusing the mum of your child you are NOT a good father.

Exactly and we see this time and time again in GL. Like I know this is Asian culture and filial piety and GL is supposed to be a fantasy but part of the fantasy shouldn’t be forgiving abusers. I was out here rejoicing about the blood clot and folks were like let’s take care of him 🥴

I’m disappointed slightly in the ending (and this is my opinion if you want to argue do it else here). I can’t say if Lada and her mum forgave the dad but it’s implied and of course the message was be the bigger person. I feel by the end there was growth but she still has love and loyalty to a family and a man in particular that abused her and her mum physically and mentally. Her older brothers were no better even the nicer one who she invited to her wedding. He watched as a lot of things happened. My issue with GL is letting abusive family get away with their actions. Sure the dad ended up paralysed but still is getting the love he doesn’t deserve. Aside from that I enjoyed the GL.

Yea I tried my free VPN but it was so slow that I have up 😭 We tried at least to support.

When kiss gets banned finally like DramaCool don’t blame anyone but yourself because we’ve said time and time again to not publicly post comments like that. The spoiler tag is literally right there.

Yea I don’t prefer AI subs so I guess I won’t be watching and that’s fine.

Is it available anywhere with English subs?

And mascot or not it doesn’t change the fact that it is queerbaiting so you getting defensive when I actually like SkyNani is weird. You can like someone and also admit some things they are doing from a logical point. Also I respect their boundaries but they are still queerbaiting and that’s ok.

Yes I heard! My issue is the subs being uploaded are unpredictable so I tend to just prefer binging when I know they are all up from that company 😂 I will definitely watch it believe me cause the chemistry looks HOT!

What is?

Of course cis hetero actors are not marginalised and again these actors are not pretending to be gay. BL fans just can’t seperate the roles from the actor.

I like SkyNani and in particular Sky but it’s unfortunately to me queerbaiting especially with how SkyNani is doing everything BL GL pairs do like having mascots and whatnot. Yes their work is friendship centred but they follow the framework of an imaginary pair without being one and that’s where I believe the queerbait comes in.

It’s not queerbaiting and y’all ignoring the actual definition above of queerbaiting and the history of it I mentioned to fit your own narrative will not work with me. It will just get you blocked. Get out of your BL bubble and actually read. Actors also can’t pretend to be gay. You do know that an actor is paid to do a role and that role is not them in real life? Y’all stay living in a fantasy.

THAT IS ON MY LIST! I usually wait months later to watch lakorn because subs take forever 😭 I’m so happy for Perth and Film and Tate 😭

No. You’re actually wrong. They are in a pair or koojin so “fan service” is common. Moreover y’all BL fans know nothing about Thailand because if you did you’d know that koojin started with STRAIGHT pairs like NadechYaya and MarkKim who are by coincidence married now. BL later adapted koojin for BL so taking NadechYaya and MarkKim out of the equation and talking about other CLASSIC koojin of Thailand who aren’t married like MarioBaifern are they straight baiting? Because they were koojin as well BEFORE Thai BL was created in 2014 😂 An actor is going to act and they will market their series whether it’s a lakorn or BL. Also you assumed the academic I’m talking about is Thai. He is not 😂 Queerbaiting is clearly what I said above and y’all BL fans stay using it incorrectly and have no idea of Thai entertainment outside of BL and that is why Thai folks find interfans ignorant but keep telling me more misinformation I can correct you on.

And that is not queerbaiting. The definition is above. You’re just choosing to be ignorant when even academics who study BL says you’re wrong. Actors don’t pretend they are gay. BL actors give you a series you want because acting is a job which many of you forget. Also an actor will take any job they can get BL or not so this just shows how little you know about entertainment 😂 None of this is queerbaiting. Queerbaiting stemmed from American TV series like Supernatural and Teen Wolf where homosexuality was HINTED but the characters never actually got together. BL doesn’t hint at anything you actually get queer relationships so again BL actors can’t queerbait and y’all are using a definition incorrectly and what I say is backed by academia. It’s fun watching you be loud and wrong though 😂

I watch BL, GL, and lakorn so I’m well versed in Thai entertainment overall compared to a BL fan 😂

Oh definitely. And we’ve seen this in BL too which is what I was saying because there is a belief that BL are treated lesser when in general it depends on how popular a person is and the sponsors they can get.

No. This is the ACTUAL definition of queerbait which y’all like to ignore - “Queerbaiting is a marketing or narrative technique where creators hint at, tease, or insinuate LGBTQ+ relationships or characters in media (TV, film, books) to attract queer audiences, while never officially depicting them to avoid alienating mainstream viewers.” BL actors can’t queerbait if y’all are getting the BL and the NC. SkyNani is queerbaiting. So again when y’all say BL actors queerbait y’all are not using the right term. And this is backed by BL scholars in academia. They also say y’all use the term BL incorrectly the majority of the time. SkyNani is an example of queerbaiting but not BL actors so it’s best to use another term for BL actors which would be marketing which you’re going to see from every actor BL or not.
