So many BL movies and dramas have rape or relationships that seem started off on some rape-type situation. I feel…
It’s true that many have this kind of scenario, but it doesn’t mean we have to accept it. There have been many BL in the last few years that portray healthy relationships and I like to support those. By this I don’t mean that I only watch fluffy stuff, I like dark themes too, but it can be done without sexual abuse between the couple. It’s not that I can’t handle it, it’s just wrong from my point of view. I don’t get how people can support such things.
I finally started this and I’m impressed! I had high expectations and it didn’t disappoint, at least for now. I like how different it is and it’s also well made. Baifern is fantastic as expected <3
I’ll give this a chance and then decide if I’ll keep watching it or not. I haven’t read the novel, but judging from people’s comments this doesn’t look like it involves consent... I think it’s ok when they show how bad of a thing r**** is, but as the start of a romantic relationship? no, thank you.
episode 1 had such a somber atmosphere to it, when it's able to leave you with such cold feelings in only the…
I completely agree. I’m a bit “scared” to keep watching it, the first episode was already hard to watch in a way. I thought the same about the bullying sigh.. I think this is going to be a long ride.
I started watching this because of Ong, the plot seems interesting and I can relate to some of Jun Woo and other characters’ aspects, so it’s a nice surprise. I don’t usually like this type of drama, but I’ll give it a chance. Since I never watch this type of drama I don’t know how cliché or not it is, so it doesn’t bother me.
Who uses a person and hurts them on purpose knowing they have feelings for you to make them “forget” about you, so that you can go back to being friends, how did Khai expect that to happen?!! it was a pretty stupid thing to do...
I hope you’re right! Even though I wouldn’t call unrealistic a gay man marrying a woman to “fit into” a society which would judge them otherwise. I think it was and it still is a sad reality in many places.
It didn’t happen (yet), I just watched the first episode, but by a conversation they had (Jun and the man he’s seeing) and by how Jun behaves it seems that they think that, at the end, the logic thing to do is to find a girl, in fact it looks like it’s what Jun is doing, he’s trying to find a girl who would understand him, probably just as a friend, but since the girl likes him I hope they don’t end up together just because “it’s the right thing to do”, so that he can have all the “normal” things all the other men can have, like a family with kids .-. I hope it goes into a different direction.
One of the best dramas I’ve watched! It covered so many different themes and it’s just beautiful the way it’s been made! Loved it!! It’s been so much fun!! I’m so happy we got subs, I’m so thankful to the person who subbed this, we would have missed out on an amazing drama otherwise :D
Define "bl scenes." People always expect nudity, intimacy, and hot scenes when it comes to gay dramas, but are…
sorry for being too vague, but by bl scenes I didn’t mean anything sexual, I just meant that everything is implied and it’s still understandable that they like each other, but maybe from my comment people would misunderstand and think that there was a confession of their feelings or something along those lines and have expectations for things that are not there. I don’t know how to explain it very well, but a relationship can be portrayed explicitly even without sexual things, even a kiss, but maybe saying that they are together or something like that, but this movie is different, it doesn’t have any of that. I just didn’t want to mislead people with my comment, someone could think that there’s actually nothing between the two after watching the movie because it’s not explicitly confirmed by the two. Also, I think many heterosexual dramas are very unrealistic with how they portray relationships, especially women in love/ a relationship, or maybe I just can’t relate, so... The last thing I wanna do is fetishize gay people, I condemn that myself. I really enjoy BL dramas, but I always try to point out “what is wrong with it” when it comes to portraying a relationship between two guys. I enjoy the ones which show more intimate scenes and the ones which don’t at all, if I like the plot and the characters have good chemistry nothing else matters. (and by good chemistry I mean just the way they interact, if it’s natural or not, the way they look or smile at each other, simple stuff). I really enjoyed this movie, it’s still one of my favorites, the only thing is that it would have been nice see what happens afterwards. I hope my point of view is clearer now.
2Moons has always had a special spot in my heart, so even with a different cast I still like it a lot and I can’t wait for the next episodes! I feel like I’m as excited as I was when I watched the first version :3 I can’t wait to watch the continuation of the story! I like all the new actors so far even if I still have to get used to them.
One last thing, it's very sad that gay men feel they must find a woman in the end to have the family they dream of because of how society perceives them. Like, if they were allowed to be together freely without being judged and mistreated they wouldn't feel the need to fool women...
