Well what my friends told me is that TianXuNing who I has watched before in other series, had a reputation for being a womeniser. With Ziyu, he cheated on girlfriend and he has publicly apologised for this. Cheating is taking very serious in China, so his reputation is not very good at the moment. Zhan Xuan has also has a little bit of a shake at that level. They are adults they do what they want to do, particularly XuMing and Xuan they are gorgeous and naughty. What is funny is that of course they are throwing candies to the shippers in order to keep the audience captive. and the shippers now they said the are together for real!?, so pathetic, they all have proved being very straight if you ask me. BL is an easy way to gather international fans very quickly, we know this has been the main motivation of these less known actors in the Asian countries producing BLs.

I think it is crazy fans everywhere. Ziyu was already a well known idol, so people recognise him quite easily. He running in the airport....we have seen this in China from other celebrities trying to exaggerate the event. Any kind of publicity is good publicity, so don't believe everything that you read. The Revenged Love actors have such a bad reputation at present, but this is their own making. My Chinese friends living in China have told me.

I think the central point is that since its creation, a significant Yaoi/Damnei writers and consumers are homophobic and misogynistic (as the "bottom" are a "enhance" representation of women via the male body) in such way that rape is glorified in this kind of literature. This is a fundamental contradiction of all and I do believe it should be challenged. I could quote and I am sure you too, serious studies on these, mainly from Asian academics. When I mention bloggers in social media I am thinking of Asian bloggers who I followed.

I will!

People down vote from the beginning of a series. For not reason except they don't like that particular actor or their favorites series is also airing so they don't want audience to watch a "competing" series. Here there has been big quarrels between Revenged Love fans and people watching ABO what??? since when watching various series is incompatible?

Exactly no official information. We don't know who is the producer, normally producers would have a channel where they promote the series.

I am afraid there are too many stupid people in these forums. Some post below people were complaining of downvoting this series, this is nothing. Passing from 8.7 to 8.2 is irrelevant here. I have seen the rate of k dramas drop from 9 to 7 in a couple of hours! (literally). This is example of just how negative people can be here.

Business reasons, as it was sold to too many platforms and the audience is basically the same. I think it is good that they are less platforms involved in this way it is a more realistic view of how many people are watching the series.

Exactly, also my comment below. It is mainly happening in the Fujoshi world and with people that we could even called homophobic. LGBTQ+ bloggers in social media often comment that this terms objectify their experiences as gay men. Additionally, such wrong presumption in the Omegaverse genre, as Alpha are versatile. It has been part of the narrative of this particular kind of fiction since the beginning.

For international audience. Hopefully it would be distribute to the most well known platforms such as Iqiyi, Gagaoola, Rakuten Viki. I find the video was just a sequence of scenes without much of a sense what is the plot. Let's see.

So lets not bring that drama here. At this point the strategy of "filling" the week between episodes with "fan service" is backfiiring. So they should stop and release two ep per week.!

I would recommend to read the novel before watching the series

It was sold to too many platforms and the audience is basically the same!

I don't know why people are going on with Chinese censorship taking down series. The recent Chinese BLs have not passed through the Chinese gov agency because they are outside China. They are geared for international audience in international streaming platforms. If WeTV has decided to stop ABO it is very likely because the audience is too spread among Iqiyi, Gagaoola, Rakuten Viki. Business decision. By the way, I would like to mention that Elliot and K know each other for 8 years and for all of us who watch a lot of c dramas, we recognised them for the 15 minutes episodes productions. They have not been "discovered" by the ABO team. Li Pei even more he has a long career as secondary actor. ABO is not an agency, is a production company who has hired them. After this, hopefully they will resume their activities as regular actors.

For international audiences.

Doubt it! They are not allowed in China

We know! you have overpopulated this forum with your links

Unsolicited LGBTQ+ awareness rant: people are here so fascinated about beautiful Enigma being a "different" top, additionally if your read the novel, he is a "top" to a very powerful "bottom" who never stop being forceful. Yet, why is this obsession of most people with these categories? There's no scientific basis for "top/bottom". These are social constructs, reinforced by culture, media, and sometimes by internalised expectations of some people. Fujoshi/BL narratives exploit and oversimplify gay experiences for entertainment. Many queer theorists and creators are actively challenging this. Are there any activists/allies in this forum? And if we are going to come back to the fantasy realm, in the Omegaverse genre, Alphas are versatile!

Meaning? He would love her spirituality first 😂so she became her first "true love"??? if they come with this narrative I would feel so aggravate!!!

What a hideous narrative, so now, the womeniser detective is interested in the virgin teacher...what do we expect from a k drama. If the storyline is for them to finish in a romantic relationship, it is an insult. Apart that he has more on screen chemistry with the highschooler but that would be worse of course. This series had the potential to be something really interesting, but the stories every week are not strong enough. It needed a better scriptwriter.
