Between this series, My Stubborn and Heesu In Class2, it's like a battle between the pearl-clutchers ashamed that Jun isn't being portrayed as the typical Uke, who needs to be trained to like sex by his Seme Sorn (Jun's a horny cheating minx!!) vs. the folks who are mad that viewers are voicing their well placed anger about the travesty in the de-centering of Hee Su's love story with Seung Won over having Chan Young and Ji Yi's love story being focused on in that adaption. It's been a crazy couple of weeks here on MDL.

But that's never, ever going to change.

Stay on this page, select "Reviews" and then select "Most Recent".

You are telling some much need truths today!!

You have to check out Honglou Meng previous reviews. They are hilarious.

In all honesty. Why would you have a hard time recommending this series?

"Now, the greatness that is Mame showed us how low — I mean, how far — we can go. We now have to up our game. So, I have hired a consultant, Thunder Thighs, from the world of gay porn…"

YOU ARE BACK!!

Well, to me the entire plot for Sorn and Jun is them being in denial about their true feelings, but using their sexual desire for one another to be close to one another. Now, I don't know about the secondary possible male pairing of Thai and Champ. That's probably closer to what folks are comfortable with: longterm friends to lovers tale. We still have the third pairing featuring the lesbian coupling of Penny and June.

I don't think it's that difficult to figure out.

Jued is slowly realizing that this job really isn't something that she enjoys or likes to do. She's seeing these clients at their lowest point in their lives and she feels like she's contributing towards their pain. This episode was sad, because Mon only used their service to give her kind, loving, and supportive boyfriend Mai a "fresh start" with having the freedom to move on from her. She didn't want to keep him from being able to live his life, while being placed in the role of also having to take care of her parents. She didn't want that future for him.

So Shun didn't destroy the world I gather?

"Also, I don’t see any malicious intent on Sorn’s side. He’s clearly attracted to Jun and acts on it with Jun’s consent. I don’t think liking someone and wanting to be close to them automatically means you owe them a full confession about your feelings right away. Honestly, Sorn probably hasn’t even fully realized what he feels yet himself."

Isn't Sorn behaving just like the usual Tsundredre (sp??) in these BLs? Why are folks having fits over Sorn's behavior? Sorn is either not aware of his true emotions/feelings for Jun, because he isn't ready to accept that 1) he's already fallen for this "kid", 2) this "kid" already has a boyfiend, and 3) this "kid" continues to tell him to not say anything about what they're doing, yet continues to come back to him from more.

Had to take a drink to this post. Sigh.

😃 😀 😄 😁 🤣

Your Jun "letter" is hysterical and true. There are folks, who think that Jun is some naive, innocent young "boy" being gaslit by Sorn.

Jun continues to allow himself to be "taught" these "unique kissing and physical touching games" by a guy who isn't his current boyfriend. Jun also continues to tell Sorn to "not tell anyone" about what they both are doing.

Jun is totally complicit in his ravishing by Sorn.

"Why were Chan Yeong and Ji Yu shoved together? To fulfill those heteronormative expectations and fetishes. When we long for same-sex affection, hand-holding, picnic dates, hearts fluttering, we're met with accusations of fetishization from the people who fetishize the "straight" lifestyle. They're projecting onto us."

The telling point about TPTB being so hesitant in allowing the audience to see Hee Su and Seung Won's relationship to develop in the same exact way as Chan Young and Ji Yi was that I don't even recall seeing any kisses between those two characters. We got to see them get to know one another, spend time together exploring their interests (outside of their studies), get to know their friends (Hee Su and Seung Won). Those two were able and allowed to develop in the way that we have seen in other KBLs, JBLs, Taiwanese BLs, and yes, even Thai BLs. The hand holding, the shy and nervous looks, the "possessive" moments that drive everyone with glee.

All of those moments were given to Chan Young and Ji Yi.

IMO, yes.

Literally every single chance and opportunity to show Seung Won and Hee Su spend anytime together that would have shown any sort of development of them as a potential couple, the series would shift towards to Chan Young and Ji Yi or towards one of Hee Su's female siblings and their personal lives and even to Ho Sik and his unknown female crush.

It kept happening way too many times for it to not be intentional.

Just to be able to see little moments of Hee Su not be so centered all the time on how Chan Young was existing would have been helpful in seeing his growth in the first half of the series.

This is the most obvious BL that will provide the most tropes as possibly.

So Sorn let Jun get punched, because his "kisses" aren't "right", yet he's not attracted towards him at all. A BL trope used in an extreme way, but STILL a recognizable trope

Sorn considers what he and Jun are doing as "training", but he doesn't want Jun to do "this" with anyone else. Another BL trope.

It feels like this adaption didn't want to focus at all on the internal/external issues of two gay boys falling in love, and being able to explore/share their love between one another, while believing that the same audience would somehow embrace just how truly easy it is for the opposite straight pairings to go through their relationships. Even with the other sister of Hee Su having to accept the end of her relationship. That was shown as something that may happen to a couple. You fall out of love.

Why were all the confessions of Hee Su's crushes on Chan Young AND Seung Won done in darkness?! The acceptance of love between Seung Won and Hee Su shown at the abandoned school at night?!

I tried to give some benefit of the doubt, but TPTB literally couldn't give more than 5 minutes of Hee Su and Seung Won being together without including Chan Young and Ji Yi. We even got Ho Sik with his girl.

Chan Young isn't a good friend at all. I'm sorry to all the viewers that called out the clear lack of focus on Hee Su and Seung Won throughout the entire airing of this series.

Praise all of the performances from the actors, especially Ahn Ji Ho & Lee Sang Jun.

I think that Akin not being entirely focused on pressing charges against Johnny makes sense to me, and not just because nothing was resolved in the manga.

Just imagine what would happen if Akin actually tried to bring attempted assault charges against Johnny? The media/press and the lawyers represent Johnny would attempt to smear Akin's name, his reputation, destroy his professional career, and bring his personal life (including his true relationship with Jun) to the public eye.

Very many victims can't and don't want to put themselves through another aspect of assault, in order to get some semblance of peace and control back into their lives.

I am glad that Jun apologized to Akin for what he experienced, that it wasn't his fault, and that he did nothing wrong. That's all that Akin truly needed to hear, and the support he received from the man that he loves and trusts.

Or that there wasn't enough tongue! 😝

"You know what’s actually offensive?
Watching a straight couple on TV kiss with all the passion of two cardboard boxes trying to check off a checklist—and no one bats an eye. But two men? One forehead touch and suddenly the pearl clutchers are tweeting “SMUT!” from their fainting couches.
Honey, if your only frame of reference for gay intimacy is filtered through discomfort, that’s a you problem. Not the show’s."

Thank you. It saddens me that certain pearl-clutchers are losing their minds over two adult consenting male characters being shown and portrayed as thoroughly enjoying their sexual and physical attraction towards one another.

Neither Sorn nor Jun want to fully admit that they are still drawn towards one another, but they cannot keep their desires from erupting. Be it in the club, outside of a friend's backyard garden, nor their workplace.

Grey's Anatomy has been on air for almost 22 years and the entire premise of that series was based on a med student have random one night stand with someone who ended up being her boss.

We only have 10 episodes of My Stubborn. Not all BLs have to be some sort of innocent quaint stroll down a romantic garden pathway, with no sexual touches until the 11th episode.

And there was no sexual assault of Jun by Sorn.

Those pearl clutchers knickers are also very wet as they continue to complain AND watch at the same time.
