And in this case no one should invalidate someone’s criticism because this story caters to their preference and they are “okay” with this. I have seen so many korean bl’s having straight side couple and not one infuriated me. Because those stories were marketed as bl’s and lived upto it. None of them had straight romance in our faces when it was about a queer story. I will spell it out in case someone still cannot see the problem, this story is about two guys falling in love and i want to embrace their love story. I will appreciate a SIDE love story too, but not when it is in my face for 30 minutes, all i want to see is the actual main couple and how their relationship progresses. I wouldn’t be this mad, if they had given them equal screen time in SIX EPISODES OUT OF TEN EPISODES.

And also most of the straight romance kdramas has SIXTEEN 1 hour long episodes, so thats why they cannot focus solely on the main couple. Comparing that to bl, when we have been getting TEN 40 minute episodes is pointless. I would have tolerated it, if we got to see development between actual main couple first and in last few episodes, the side couple’s story. I wish you just take a step back and see why “a bunch of fujoshis” are bothered by this.

This isn’t about tolerance for straight pairing—it’s about narrative priorities and representation. No one said we wanted 40 minutes of hand-holding and longing stares—we’re asking for equal emotional investment and screentime. Newsflash: nobody is mad that straight people exist—we’re mad that in a QUEER story, the queer couple is being sidelined for yet another copy-paste hetero romance that we’ve seen in 300 dramas already. Y’all act like asking for actual development and depth for the main couple is equivalent to wanting 40 minutes of fanservice and forehead kisses. It’s not.

This show is getting or should be getting the criticism it deserves. Just because you as a non bl fan or whatever you like to call yourself is okay with straight couple overshadowing THE MAIN QUEER COUPLE IN A QUEER STORY, doesn’t mean everyone should be. Don’t be like “Im a bl fan but i like straight couple” I don’t care. This is not about you liking the straight couple. This is about them overshadowing queer couple in a queer story. This wouldn’t be happening in a straight series. Its a queer story, bl fan or not, people have the right to criticise because it is sad how we are more than half way into the series and all im seeing is basic ass couple with same straight kdrama romance plot taking more than half of the screen time. I want to learn more about the queer couple, their back stories, their interests, their dynamics and not some side character’s tennis sob story. People have appreciated the manhwa and waited for the adaptation to come see this disappointment. This is such a simple perspective, idk why y’all are having a hard time seeing it. We are NOT saying straight couple is bad or we hate them, we are saying they are overshadowing the main couple in a queer story which is truly disappointing. THERE ARE SO MANY STRAIGHT ROMANCE DRAMAS, and now when we are getting queer dramas, this happens. I would have no issue with this if the original plot was Mr tennis boy and Miss nonchalant famous girl’s love story and the queer couple were a side characters. But its not, and that infuriates me. The recent bl manhwa adaptation without the bl aspect also made me furious. Like why is everyone so scared of showing love between two people.

well said.

Glad I’m not the only one who is noticing the straight couple getting more screen time. The story literally revolves around the queer couple but why am i seeing 1 minute of them and 39 minutes of SIDE COUPLE. This wouldn’t happen in straight dramas.

Its getting harder for me to not ship Daon with Suhyeon. Their trope has me weak. (also the way he wrote his name at the end of the episode…I can’t -

This is too good!!! The actors did so well. Im eating this up. But idk what unhealed part of me likes the way suhyeon is acting rn. Like he is so protective and ……

its a chinese bl? (tysm for responding!!)

when? amd whats the official name? I can’t find any info

This series is absurd. I’ll get cavities from watching this until the end. Its too sweet, i keep giggling and kicking my feet. They keep flirting with each other any chance they get….ugh I cannot-

lmao this is so accurate

“the depth of faith bla bla bullshit” bro you can’t use that card just because your dad said it. He isn’t an auditor you are. Keep your personal life and your work life separate or just don’t do the damn job that requires you to do that. Imagine a lawyer saying your honor he is innocent because I believe him. These characters do everything but their jobs.

yet. nit terrible yet, the way he looks up to his father, I can’t be sure.

i noticed the women on both sides gathered to discuss about their son and daughter’s future, while fathers are absent. Im speechless because the meaning resonates to reality too

all three generations of non renewable toxic trashy males. I am furious.

atp im rooting for the death of that man by the witch. That would save humanity.

not one slap in this drama so far, disappointed. I have assigned 4745755574 slaps to the so called husband father aka loser and 48894888888999999999999 slaps to the diabolical pyscho witch

The table is not even empty, it is filled with rotten decaying things with maggots

Why is this sewer rat being praised FOR ABSOLUTELY NOTHING when he cheated on his WIFE, decieved his own son and mother, FAKED HIS own DEATH (isn’t that illegal?!!!!!!!). This loser gets god treatment while everyone is busy gaslighting his biggest victim. AND HE IS UGLY AND UNATTRACTIVE (his actions and his character makes him look that way). Like the dots are not connecting. Why is everyone kissing his unsuccessful, ugly, cheating ass when he brings absolutely nothing to the table? Is it because he is an XY chromosome?
