OK. I'm liking this series. So, I choose to overlook a few "flubs" in the storyline. LOL! For instance, how does Thap know how to get to In's house? I guess doctors just know where we live, even if it's in the mountains! HaHa! Also, they've only met a couple of times and In is letting Thap drive him around in "his" vehicle like he's a "passenger princess!" LMFAO! I guess Thap just has it going on! HaHaHa!

(P.S. This is just humorous sarcasm!)

It's looking that way. But we don't know why yet.

I stand by my original thought. Mild's brother should be stomping Knight into the ground and the "so-called friends" should just shut the f*ck up!

Wow!

Yeah, I remember that was an extremely debated topic, when it came out.

I stand corrected. It was SA between Tharn/Type, but it was gang rape on Tar, orchestrated by Llong. Since, Tharn/Type and Love by Chance were kind of linked (same characters) Tar's rape was kind of glossed over.

No it doesn't. But another poster, who read the novel said that Knight SA'd Mild, but didn't rape him. 🤔 Still confused on that one. I wonder what the series will do.

Agreed!

Right! Any other brother would be stomping Knight into the ground and kicking his teeth in. Instead, most of them are still buddy-buddy. That's bull sh*t!

OK. Now I'm confused. Mild was SA, but not raped? Without getting graphic, what exactly did Knight do to Mild in the novel?

OK. Even if you were to say this series is ok, here's the question I pose. If Mild's brother and many of their friends "believed" that Knight raped his younger brother (we still don't know for sure), WHY THE HELL DIDN'T ANY OF THEM DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT!!! Worse than that, THEY'RE STILL F*CKING FRIENDS WITH HIM!! WTF! I realize this is just a story -- but it sends ALL the wrong messages. In many ways, this story plot is just as bad or even worse than the rape plot in Tharn/Type.

Let me see. In BLs, we have rapists glamorized, victims falling in love with their rapists, and now friends and family kind of ignoring the rape happened and keeps being friends with the rapist. Wow! Thai BLs (especially Thai BL mangas, novels, etc.) are really pushing the boundaries of kinky, cringy sh*t for entertainment purposes.

Like I said, given the period, unfortunately, that would make sense. However, during that time, France was much more tolerant of lgbtq+ relationships than was Siam (Thailand). Maybe they all move to France. 😊

Really? Darn!

Has anyone read the novel? If so, how do things turn out in the novel. Because, given the period and attitudes during the period, WWI, how could either couple have a happy ending?

Agree regarding Mon/Pak and porn statement, However, PrEP doesn't cover other possible STDs. Raincoat on is always a good practice.

P.S. Don't ever worry about how folks will respond. Everyone on this site has the right to their opinion. Remember, a lot of folks are into a lot of freaky , kinky, even cringy stuff for entertainment. Don't let it get to you.

Any type of sexual assault, sexual abuse, sexual exploitation etc. in dramas, especially bls, is not something I think is cool. But, as I said, to each his own.

Interesting analysis.

You don't have to agree with me. Never really been a fan of SA in dramas. But I realize it's in the novel and that it's just fiction and fantasy.

This drama was more than something else! I'm not sure why so many were OK with all the SA, stereotypes and tropes. I guess to each his own! But it was an interesting story. At least it wasn't banned by the Chinese government, like other previous BLs have been.
