I seriously don’t understand Wabi Sabi. Earth is a pretty decent actor (from what I’ve seen in UWMA) yet they’re so insistent on giving him the same unbearable character every series. The man is 28. He can be cute while ALSO protraying a complex character that doesn’t pout every episode. This type of “confused cutie” role with no nuance was okay in early 2019 when BL standards weren’t that high but now it just doesn’t work anymore.
This series is basically just a visual example of how Wabi Sabi hasn’t grown with the times and is stuck in the same mindset of what worked for BLs years ago. The series isn’t the worst I’ve ever seen, but it’s definitely not the best.
should i watch? i haven’t watched a gmmtv bl in a hot minute. probably since msp ngl lol
From what I remember it was okay. Not GMMTV’s worst but not their best. What I did like about Dangerous Romance is how they actually put effort into developing the characters and not just the romance which made the show interesting compared to other BLs. However I would say the acting between the main leads could definitely improve. I would say give it a try!
there probably won’t be a season 4 because of how demanding and toxic the fans of His Man are. I mean multiple contestants from this season alone had to apologize over stupid things so I doubt anyone else will want to go through that… sad because I really enjoyed the His Man series but of course fans had to ruin it.
Deserved more attention and promotion. I didn’t even hear about this show until 2022. It’s disappointing because 2020 was the year when BLs really started taking off internationally so this could’ve been huge. The plot was amazing!
