Iām so excited to see charliebabe again i always love a non stereotypical couple but, the most Iām looking forward to is kentakim as kenta is my absolute favorite and canāt wait to see more of him.
People are unhappy everywhere tik tok, twitter x, instagram, tumblr and iām glad cuz korea keeps on taking the queer source material and changing them for their straight audience. Even china which have so many restrictions keeps on adding censored lgbt stories even in their straight dramas. Heesu in class 2 is one of the best manhwa where characters actually put label on things and sexuality is talked about now itās on its way of becoming generic kdrama. I was honestly loving the cute moments and enjoying the show but now i just feel sad.
how much was deleted i wanna know before watching there was 40/50 min episode so are you sure there was too many…
In episode 9, they removed the conversation between Tao ze and lwz about Pei su and how theyāre not fighting as much anymore, as well as the moment when Pei su puts the jacket on Lou Weizhou. In episode 10, cuts include the absence of cat scenes, Pei Su looking at lwz pitifully, and the car scene being abruptly cut and replaced with a voiceover. Instead of showing the scene where Pei Su holds Lou lwz hand and Lwz scolds him, the voiceover is used. These scenes were in the script, as well as in novel but unfortunately, they were cut in the new censored version, and the editing feels noticeably odd as a result.
Oh, I totally forgot about that released script. So we do have a way to check what was cut ...but maybe it's better…
Youāre right itās better not to know but the deleted scenes are becoming obvious without reading the script especially for someone who has read the novel.
Well i had a little hope that maybe they wonāt censor the remaining eps but it looks like thatās not the case, oh well iām gonna still watch cuz the casting is perfect, but gonna miss my boys being gay for each other. Also what was the reason for cutting the interrogation scene, it was the first time we see pei su working a SID. And Pei su putting jacket on lou zhao was obviously cut and the last car scene was cut mid conversationš pei su holding lou weizhou hand scene and him feeding the cat. All were there in the script released but got cut in new more censored version. And the cuts are too abvious.
There's a released script? Is it available somewhere in English or chinese only? I don't mind either way, only…
Hi, yes the director released it when it seemed like it wouldn't air again. I'm not sure where, but people on Tumblr have been posting the full script in english.
I feel it's cause some stuff from the webtoon was missing, but i can't be sure, cause i didn't read it. But The…
Actually the opposite happened, this season was actually stretched because the flashbacks itās based on is really short and beom seok was actually given more depth and suho character personality was combined with the actual second lead of whc ben park who will appear in season 2.
They've removed the car scene, and I don't understand the point if I wanted to watch a crime show with male characters, I could have picked from thousands out there. Modu/Silent Reading is my favorite novel by Priest, and I love her work because it's not focused on romance. The characters just happen to be queer, and those subtle, slow-burn moments bring me more satisfaction than typical romance novels. and considering the whole script was released by the director iāll be watching it with bittersweet feeling of what we couldāve have. Oh well, it seems like danmei fans will never get a win.
He is straight, not inlove. He is aware Heesu likes them tho.
But the thing is heesu in class two is actually a queer story, where Heesu is afraid of revealing his crush because itās a guy rather than a best friend. Until he sees seung won moms and finally realizes thatās it alright to like same sex. But they have already changed many things already but iām still enjoying it at the same time, i think itās ok to complain with how many lgbt stories have been straightwashed by korea.
He is straight, not inlove. He is aware Heesu likes them tho.
Because manhwa had a second gay couple and was removed. While there was no straight couple in manhwa and changyoung is actually bi and went on a date with another boy. Also the girl basically became irrelevant after a couple of chapters.
Well, iām ok with the first episode, Iām happy they didnāt focus on the straight couple, hopefully it remains that way. Just disappointed that all heesu sunshine personality was toned down.
there are some darker ones announced for this / next year
I donāt think youāre getting my point. I want to see queer romance in different genres. For example, Spare Your Mercy was a murder mystery with a romance that was well-balanced, where the story stayed the main focus. Most of the upcoming BLs you mentioned are still just romance. Shows like The Gifted, Midnight Museum, Peaceful Property, Homeschool, High School Frenemy, and Enigma from GMMTV have different plots with no or straight pairings. The only BL I remember from GMMTV with both romance and a strong plot is Not Me. And i also get you that majority of bl/gl viewers want is romance at the center. But once in a while i would really love if we have something like leap day where the genre is thriller and characters just happen to be queer
