Waiting 168 hours for a 17 minute episode should be illegal 😭 At least give us two episodes a week! At this…
Producing series is incredibly expensive! They must be dying to do better; they have the skills to make 30-minute series, but certainly not the capital. I’m sure they’re really struggling. The production team behind *Sammy's Children Day* faced the same issues and was forced to cut the series short. And ratings of 7.5 aren't going to help them much. The Chinese BL scene is waking up—let's support them all we can. Another production company is trying to get started with *Sleet Therapist* (though there's still a lot of room for improvement)—it has four 12-minute episodes, but only 43 watchers on MDL.
But you're mistaken; they'll be playing the secondary couple. It is indeed Hou Ming (Ji Ming Xuan), but he'll…
It’s absolutely nothing against Thailand; right now, I’m happily watching *Unlucky Bae* and *Mr. Fanboy*. I’m just reacting to the lack of objectivity among many fans who place a bit too much importance on the "couples" at the expense of production quality. I feel that quality CBLs are underrated compared to TBLs. But hey, to each their own—it’s entertainment, after all.
Well, well, well—we hadn't seen a zombie around here for three days, and now here's one back again. 😉 The homophobic type who rates practically every series a 1.0—so, a real authority on the subject.
congrats to Zihao and Mingxuan for landing their second drama (together)they'll starr in Moral Decay as secondary…
But you're mistaken; they'll be playing the secondary couple. It is indeed Hou Ming (Ji Ming Xuan), but he'll be paired with Zhou Ningjia (Bei Lüqing) from *Bittersweet Love*. Lead roles (To My Shore): Lu Zhen and Hu Bowen (his first BL).

Synopsis Xinsheng is a Chinese BL drama adapted from Kunzai's web novel Jiu You Zi Qu, centered on Qin Zhan and Zhou Liao, two young men whose relationship begins in resentment and develops into a dangerous struggle over power, punishment and control.
Zhou Liao grows up wealthy, attractive and accustomed to getting what he wants. Surrounded by privilege and friends who rarely challenge him, he has little reason to think about the consequences of his behavior. At school, his attention is eventually drawn to Qin Zhan, a withdrawn student from a very different background. Qin Zhan is poor, isolated and difficult to read, and his refusal to react to Zhou Liao with either admiration or fear quickly becomes a source of irritation.
What begins as hostility turns into sustained bullying. Zhou Liao repeatedly targets Qin Zhan, while Qin Zhan appears to endure the abuse without giving him the emotional response he is looking for. Their conflict is intensified by their unequal social positions. Zhou Liao has money, influence and people around him, while Qin Zhan has learned to survive with very little support. The imbalance allows Zhou Liao to treat their encounters as another game he can control, but Qin Zhan does not forget what is being done to him.
Years of humiliation leave Qin Zhan with a deep resentment that he keeps hidden behind his quiet exterior. Instead of confronting Zhou Liao impulsively, he prepares his revenge with patience. When the balance between them finally changes, Zhou Liao finds himself drawn into a situation designed by the person he once considered powerless. Qin Zhan intends to make him experience the fear, helplessness and loss of control that he himself was forced to endure.
Their confrontation places them in close proximity under extreme circumstances. The old roles of aggressor and victim no longer function as they once did, and the psychological battle between them becomes increasingly difficult to define. Qin Zhan is determined to carry out the punishment he has imagined for years, while Zhou Liao is forced to face someone whose anger is far deeper than he understood. At the same time, neither man fits comfortably into a simple moral position. Their histories, family wounds and destructive ways of dealing with attachment complicate the hatred connecting them.
sis...oh sis,...i did just the same ahahaha (but i missed the fingering...)
Yeah, it's incredible how many people had such vivid imaginations after watching that—even though the shot was strictly from the waist up. But hey, it feels good to dream. Maybe until their next "NC," lol.
For me, Thailand (with exceptions like *Payback* or *ITSAY*) isn't exactly a benchmark for quality.Everything…
If I didn't love BL and bromances written by women, I wouldn't have been a devoted fan since 2016—which is exactly 20 years. As for China, I don't distinguish between BL and bromance, since they all originate from homoerotic novels that were cleverly adapted to bypass censorship. I really ought to do a better job of distinguishing between *fujoshi* and *sasaeng* fans so I don't cause hurt unnecessarily.
