Not a Robot

I think because Ryan and Jane isn't as messy. Ryan doesn't have a boyfriend at the company to bring drama to the workplace. I kind of frown upon direct supervisor and intern relationships due to the power imbalance, but Ryan isn't cheating or testing his sexuality out on Pah, so it's less messy. I'm actually enjoying Off playing Jane. Off has such an open face and demeanor, so it is refreshing to he him play a character who is not a popular ladies man.

I did like The Eighth Sense, Love for Love's Sake and Jazz for Two, but have never watched Gray Shelter and Breeze of Love. My biggest complaint is the poor acting in almost every series, despite big budgets, which means they can afford to hire good actors and acting coaches. I meant more of a connection as far as intimacy. Some of the actors have revulsion on their faces when having to hold hands or hug. In Cherry Magic, Kurosawa and Adachi do not kiss (rather have that than Ken doll or camera angle kisses) but due to acting skill, I could believe they were in love, and showed real intimacy between the characters. I am going to watch the two series you recommended. Sorry that I did't explain myself clearly but I understand where you're coming from.

I enjoyed this series immensely. All of the couples had great chemistry. My favorite was the first time between Almond and Latte. The strawberry underwear just topped off that whole scenario.

It's a slow burn, but I really like it. The dream aspect is very interesting. The MC hasn't figured out that he has feelings for the ML and we are on episode 4. I would be confused too about someone I have known since childhood and had a girlfriend.

It's because some viewers have no critical thinking skills, and are also powerless against the government. So being midwits, they take it out on the victims.

I partly agree with you, but I dislike most Korean BL despite the high budgets. Before the ban, China produced the best BL content. Not all had good cinematography and they were low budget, but the actors went with the emotion of the characters, which showed in their intimate (not just sex) scenes. Even in 2024, Korea and Japan have the worst intimacy with disgusted looks, dead fish kisses, or fake camera shot kisses. Old Chinese BL did not shy away from lovers being in love and that was 10 years ago. I hate to think of where they would be today, had the ban not taken place because it makes me sad.

I finally watched all four episodes and I'm not sure where the complaints are coming from. Hetero Chinese dramas are way worse than this one, as far as violence, sexuality and bad moral behavior.

Yes, the book makes it easier to understand the how the Xue, Jin, and royal family history works, but there is SA and although the MC is 19, the ML is still 15. From what I read on MDL, people get freaked out by these types of age gaps.

After watching the trailer, I did not have high expectations for this drama, but I really like it so far. Although I don't like the old school Myer-Briggs personality test results flashing everywhere, I like that God and Diew are really listening to each other.

I enjoyed this series very much, especially San realizing that he loves Wee, and not Wad as Wee, or even Wad. I just want to know where the location of San's house is. I wonder if it is a museum or an office building.

Thank you for letting me know because if I like it, I would have missed out because of pas shows I've watched.

I just found out that the Thai actor, Achi was actually speaking Thai during his lines in the cave. Maybe his voice was not dubbed in the Thai voice track.

Read at your own risk. They had to make changes for the series.

I'm even more impressed by this cast! Production uploaded a video of Li Le reacting to the cave scene and he said that Achi only spoke Thai, so they had to use a certain word cue to let the Chinese actors know the line had ended. These guys are great.

I can't stand the Bachelor, Bachelorette. I also do not like reality TV with all of the drama and bickering. From the synopsis, this looks like the Real World from back in the day, and I'm not sure that I can handle dumb drama. Maybe I'll try one episode in the future.

I'm glad people are enjoying this. I don't watch dating shows so I won't watch this, but I clicked here because I thought it was a drama. Have fun!

Having read the manga, I was wondering how they would bring it to life since the age gap is huge, but they have done a fantastic job so far. The manga is more slice of life, not sexual, so they have something to work with, but this cast is fantastic so far. The actor who plays the ex seems really good too. Frito is doing fantastic too.

One of the more disturbing scenes was, a husband took his mistress to his home, and the young daughter (young elementary school) confronted her by stairs. The little girl lost her balance and grabbed the arm of the mistress. The mistress shook off the girl's hand and the girl fell down the stairs, and was unconscious for many days. This same mistress and the husband later took the unconscious little girl out of the hospital, while they plotted a murder for hire of the child's mother. And I only watch clips. In most shows there is usually a miscarriage and they show blood running down legs of the woman. But gay is bad.

What puzzles me about the law is, almost every Chinese drama I've seen involves adultery, cheating, side babies, and physical abuse, but two men falling in love is more harmful?

I'm sad, but I'm not as sad about Addicted because it ended at the end of Volume 1, but I'm still hurt over Love is More than a Word having the whole middle part missing. I also want to see Volume 2 of Addicted, but because the plot involves the military, I do not think it will ever happen out of China.
