I will ALWAYS support Zhang Johnny, and Xu Timmy, after the way they were both victimised and blacklisted for so long by their own government and the censors just for starring in Addicted (AKA Heroin).
There won't be a Part 3 now - ALL LGBT projects have been banned in China now. the only hope they have is to go…
I think the dictatorship - because that's what being made 'president for life' by your own order and doing away with all democratic votes means - is such that anyone dissenting 'disappears'.
I've had Chinese nationals, especially those not living there or who are pro the president, berate me for putting down their leadership and supporting LGBT+. Most say there's 'no problem' for the Chinese LGBT+ community and it's Western media being anti Chinese - but that's just the government propaganda talking.
The Chinese LGBT+ people I know that were, or are, living in the country would certainly beg to differ with such a 'sweet' view of the deranged leadership. Apparently Ji Yie Ping would give Chairman Mao a run for his money on the 'ruthless grip on power and people' title.
Hopefully things will change for the better again - but I'm not holding my breath.......I'm liable to suffocate. It's a shame because it's a beautiful country, with a wonderful population of people....but it's not somewhere I'd go now.

Sadly, no. I think you can kiss LGBT+projects goodbye in China right now. Certainly everything that had a release date is now looking at TBA and projects to be filmed appear to be slowly cancelled one after the other.
China is now a dictatorship again, albeit with this one smiling and meeting other world leaders. It's also veryanti LGBT+. Sufficed to say a gay couple I know have now left the country and moved to Thailand and they tell me that others are trying to get out now.
Others are going to the extremes of meeting opposite gender gay couples and marrying and then living together 'to cut costs' as far as they're families are concerned. Even then they have to be extremely careful when in public - and at home if they're parents are homophobic and suspicious.
Most openly gay couples still in the country are now underground and others are either in hiding or already out of the country. In that kind of climate of fear I can't see the government allowing the making of pro LGBT+ entertainment any time soon. My friends are keeping touch with their other gay friends, just to reassure themselves they're okay more than anything else.
Single meaning not married instead of not seeing anyone. I stopped by wondering if this was a new Season Themed…
Sadly, no. I've checked everywhere - there's no where with a subbed version. There's only the raw version on Dramacool. Even YouTube hasn't got it. I remember I watched it raw.
So was Mirae really meeting with JaeHe at the end or was it just her pretending to her friends so she could go back to gaming and not hang out with them? Basically had he come back or not? I was bit confused at the end......o.0
Ah, thank you so much! (*^▽^*) It'll be nice to see the real end instead of the one I THOUGHT was the real end (and cried over! (ლ‸-) )
EDIT: I've just watched it and realised the version I saw missed the very last scene and went into the movie again......so it always stopped at Chen Zi Hao telling his 'Queen' that he would make his wish come true......but as Han Man Yi was bleeding from his mouth I think I can be forgiven for thinking he definitely died. I can't believe how much that last scene changes the end of the movie! (ლ‸-)
how asian drama disgusted relationship in the name of soul switched or not blood related
NOT blood related is not a problem - they are NOT family in ANY way in those cases....perhaps just in name or similar at most. But soul switches, or cases where there ARE blood relations, then that is definitely a very big NO for me.
I watched it on YouTube and it stopped when he was dying. Did he not die then? I assumed when I found the bit with him with the king it was the king imagining him there with him.....is that not what happened?
I think Shin Sung Rok's character is an ally of Lee Seung Gi's character, Shin Sung Rok does look like he can…
@SuperDrama101ohyea - oh definitely he was, I did love him in that. In fact all his villain roles are on point too....but I first saw him in Trot Lovers (which coincidentally got me listening to Trot music as well as BTS with my ARMY daughter), and he was just adorable in that. So I would love tosee him playing another good guy role, or at least anti hero with a happy ending. :)
As a recovering self harmer and someone who suffered depression severe enough try to do something I shouldn't, I am intrigued as to how they will handle such tough subject matter. Certainly the Japanese are not one to shy away, but I just hope they don't get it wrong.
I really hope this has a happy ending......I'm hoping......but......Chinese drama these days just seems very sad all the time. Still, I am rooting for a happy ever after!

Have you seen him in Man to Man? He literally had my friend swooning and now she's another Kdrama junkie like me. Lol!
