I'm not sure if characterizing Kao as "not caring" is valid. He was there for the filming of the cooking video…
I am well aware that they try to portray Kao as supportive. I even wrote that in my comment. I have an issue with New's acting. He has such a bland expression on his face all the time, so that I "feel" he doesn't care. I saw that New will have a new series coming up and I was surprised. I honestly thought he will not be any longer in the entertainment industry. He just lacks any enthusiasm lately.

I don't think not wanting to come out/being scared of coming out is cowardly. Speaking as a queer person.... You…
How is it not a cowardly thing to do? People only think about themselves. I'm so afraid how others react etc. If Pete is the right one for him and we are supposed to believe this is true love, then what is Kao waiting for? Hiding this relationship is clearly hurting the one you love and you do it for selfish reasons, because you are afraid of the reaction of others. And don't tell me he doesn't want to hurt his mother etc. He IS gay and together with a man. Lying is not the solution. Also, he is 20 something years old. If he would be much younger, the situation would be completely different. Coming out when you're young, confused, afraid, insecure is something else than coming out when you are older, have a stable friendship circle, a stable relationship for years and a stable career in front of you. He is just ... waiting, thinking it gets easier with time. That's exactly how I would describe a "coward". And this is not necessarily only about coming out. I know many people who just can't make a decisions because they are afraid of what will happen. So they drag it out. Not a fan of that behavior.
On Dark Blue Kiss Nov 23, 2019
Title Dark Blue Kiss Spoiler
I wasn't expecting that kiss. I really enjoyed the beginning of the scene when Kao put his arms around Pete, but it also reminded me about how great this series could have been, but they decided not to make it great for whatever stupid reason. No need for heavy make out sessions, just show us the chemistry with some cute and soft scenes like this. On a side note: if this series has such a high budget, why is there inconsistency between scenes? Pete is holding Kao's face while kissing him, then they zoom out and he is suddenly touching Kao's arm. I'm normally not that attentive, so if I have seen this, I would assume they should have seen it too.

I wonder if they will show them to us somehow. It would be a shame if nobody sees it. There goes a lot of effort…
Haha! But seriously ... I hate it, when people make such a big deal out of two (apparently straight) guys kissing like they deserve some special award. It's just kissing. Straight or not – it's acting. But if you have to do such a realistic and explicit sex scene – Jesus Christ! I wouldn't be able to pull that off. That's some dedication as an actor!

I'm so tired of reading people were "uncomfortable" by the scene. Unless you're asexual, which I get, the reality…
Btw: Asexuality mostly means that you don't desire doing it with another person, that you don't feel any sexual attraction towards another person. It doesn't necessarily means that you're not interested int those scenes.

Honestly this is rather complicated to explain. There are many people out there who live in their "romance bubble". Everything has to be cute, romantic and emotional. Their idea of romance and love is very childish and immature. I know a lot of people who still blush when they talk about sex or don't enjoy "explicit" scenes or are even shocked by them, but then they have three children. I guess they are doing it in the dark, in the missionary position and blushing all the time. I'm mostly talking about women here, because I assume some girls have problems with those scenes and not gay men. I know women who also like to talk about love and have a very romantic mindset, but then they are grossed out by their own private parts and are shocked when I'm talking about masturbation.

Y’all apparently there were more rated 18 scenes that were deleted to make the series more age appropriate.…
I wonder if they will show them to us somehow. It would be a shame if nobody sees it. There goes a lot of effort in those scenes after all.

Stating our opinions, maybe?
What opinion when a series isn’t finished? I‘m talking about the reviews not the comments.
On Dark Blue Kiss Nov 20, 2019
They did New dirty with that kind of script. He was terrible in his hetero role in Love Beyond Frontier and he is terrible in this role. He comes across as very superficial and whiny. At this point I wonder why Pete is even in love with him. There are so many rather childish and annoying conflicts, but one conflict is pretty serious and they just brush it off like it's nothing. I'm talking about the fact that Pete isn't smart enough. He is bad at academics/studying and he is bad at public speaking. Not being able to get that internship in this famous company, not being as smart as your friends is a pretty shitty feeling. I get depressed just by watching those scenes. I wonder how they will handle it. I'm a bad public speaker too and I "practiced" throughout my university years. It's not getting better. You have it or you don't. Kao comes across as supportive, but in fact he is not. I strongly feel that he doesn't care. Maybe because most of the time he has this naive/stupid look on his face for whatever reason. If they have a more serious scene with good dialogue it's mostly Pete who is delivering some wisdom. Hiding this relationship is also such a cowardly thing to do and disrespectful towards Pete. They are trying to portray Kao as "poor" with many responsibilities towards his mother and his sister – but it's not working. He is smart, successful in his studies, has a tutoring job, the mother has a good job too, their house is nice etc. Try harder next time, really.

Why doesn’t he tell his mum? Was there a scene that gave us a good reason? Did I miss it?
He is 20 something and has found his partner for life (at least we as viewers are supposed to believe Pete&Kao is endgame, true love whatever). There is really no reason to NOT tell her. It will not be easier in two or five years. It just makes him look insecure and not confident that this relationship will last which apparently he his for whatever reason.

i'm really enjoying sun and morks relationship i think they have a very subtle but real chemistry that makes it…

Replying to Pincolino Nov 17, 2019
They changed the storyline/characters. As far as I remember in KMA Pete was unsure about being gay and afraid…
The movie I mentioned did not have a bad end. I don't want a bad/sad ending, I want the real struggle that pulls on your heart strings. What DBK did until now was showing us problems on a very shallow level like they aren't willing to go deeper for obvious reason. The typical BL has to be a bit superficial and overly positive so most people can enjoy it with a smile and don't get depressed. I'm waiting for a scientific study that shows us how this kind of entertainment has a long-term (positive) effect on every day life, because I seriously doubt it. The entertainment industry always sells you fairy tales, but then reality hits you hard.

It seems some people are loving the second couple, some don't like them. I'm normally more into the first couple and I don't like relationships with age-gaps, but those two (the second couple) are really believable. I like their conversations and I like how Sun Bo Xiang matured in this short amount of time. He as a character seems to be more serious than Hao Ting, even though both have this silly and immature attitude and behave a bit crazy, because they are in love. I honestly can see how this couple works out very well. The older guy seems to be responsible and smart. Not to mention that kiss at the end of the episode. It was nicely done and pretty hot, yeah. But what really blew my mind: for a tiny second I could 100% imagine those two having sex. NOW. On the floor. Wherever. I normally don't feel like that. Even if two actors deliver passionate kissing, even if there are after-sex-scenes, most of the times I just think "Nah, you guys never had sex and never will." It's so obvious there are two actors (in most BL series two "straight" actors) who will never have sex together (or with another man). So this really took me by surprise how believable they delivered that kiss. It gives me some Korn&Knock vibes for sure.

I watched my fair share of coming out stories. I remember watching a gay series (I think it was Spanish) where the mother said something like "I don't care about you being gay. I'm disappointed that you didn't tell me." This was a terrible line. NO parent out there doesn't care about their child being gay. NO parent wishes for their child to be gay. Being gay doesn't make your life easy. Most parents wish for grandchildren etc. If the coming-out-plot is done well, I'm all in for it. I lately watched a movie where the father (he was raising the son alone) had to deal with him being gay and it was hard for him. He was a good guy, he supported his son, but it was difficult. You could see the struggle (not the struggle to accept his son, the struggle to help him and support him and do your best job as a parent). So I personally don't see the point in showing us how it's no big deal. It is done for more acceptance I know, but for me it feels empty if you know it will be all rainbows and flowers anyways. I remember in Together With Me they did a rather good job, because Knock was honestly afraid of telling them (it was a very touching scene), but still: rainbows and flowers at the end. In KMA was a scene with Pete's father that again showed us, it's no big deal being gay. In DBK it will be the same. That mother knows about them and she will support her son with that soft voice of hers. So what's the whole drama for? Pointless, really. This story lacks any depths. And even though the parents wouldn't be accepting, I'm sure they would be portrayed as some bad and choleric people (like Non's father). They just don't want to show us the "real" struggle in those kind of series.

What really impresses me the most about the series is how natural the acting is. It all feels so sincere ecspecially…
I think the second couple is doing a very good job too. I normally don't like relationships with big age gaps, but they make it work and look so natural.

There will be intimate scenes. They said that several times in interviews.
Where did you get that info from? It says +15 on this site. A mistake?

Dark Blue Kiss has a rating of +15. Don't know what they're thinking ... Maybe it's just a mistake or maybe it's an Asian thing. I have seen a lot of Asian series that were +15 and I could show them my 7 years old niece without a problem.
