Not sure how I feel about this series so far. It's uneven and there are more "bad" things than "good" so far.…
I personally think Kao has quite good expressive eyes. His acting doesn't bother me and I find it quite natural ? And it's the first time I've seen him acting. I guess it is a matter of preference.
As for the BL tropes, well it is a BL romcom more than a BL parody. If people watch this expecting more, they will be disappointed...Still it is a very nice and enjoyable series....However, this series has many layers which are very interesting to see and analyze :
I find it a little sad that people are always talking about Gene and Nubsib relationships but not other themes mentioned in the show (and there are a lot more!).
You have other subjects mentioned and not only the usual BL tropes : ambition, masks, dream and desire vs the wish to succeed, etc. So I disagree when you seem to think this series is not that original...It is not revolutionary for sure but you have themes and some kind of irony you don't find in other BLs....that doesn't mean other BLS cannot be interesting too though.
Also it is one the rarest series where one male lead always asks the other if he's ok with what he's doing...You don't see this often in other BLs shows...Does that mean Nubsib is free of flaws ? Of course not. He's still a little manipulative...but all of the characters are flawed so...
Besides, I've seen in your drama list you've watched Tharn Type the series. So...
What do you think about the tropes in Tharn Type ?
The postings regarding the use of the word "trash" are still there. I also tried to provide an example of the…
Not really....That's not the point of my previous comment....How is this so complicated for some of you to understand ? WHEN YOU SAY : ""Respectfully, you can have any opinion on the show you like, but I'd offer that it's not your place to tell people who have critiques of the series what they should or should not personally do. "
You're doing the same thing as those people telling other people what to do or not ?
Gosh I wasn't even talking about if someone is entitled to their opinion or not ??????!!!!
I was talking about the kind of argument he uses ????!!!!
IS IT THAT HARD TO UNDERSTAND ?!!!
You are not credible when you criticize those people when you basically do the same thing as those people ?!!!
But I'll stop here replying to my initial comment....it wasn't even the point I was trying to make and all of you are talking about another subject I didn't even mention...
I'll wait before watching this. I've quite loved the first season but...2nd season seems really...disturbing. Even if I know Sam and Yu are quite good actors, I'm not sure their "relationship" they portray on screen can be salvable if they really go that destructive way.

And...that's not the point I was making in my previous comment...so basically you're talking about another thing and/or distorting my words because you cannot admit your argument was null....I see...
Really. I'm not surprised. Since the beginning of this series, you can literally feel that some of those commentators…
Thank you for the free psy consultation...lol I don't know how to take this...Such a nice way to say I'm not right in my head. lol You seem quite the nice person....

So why writing this ?
"Respectfully, you can have any opinion on the show you like, but I'd offer that it's not your place to tell people who have critiques of the series what they should or should not personally do. (It would be no different if someone who doesn't like the show to tell people who do like it that they should have their heads examined. Either way suggests that people are overly-personalising the show.)"
You're basically saying to people they shouldn't tell other people what to do...whether they like the show or not....
But you're doing the same thing when you write this : ordering those people to react a certain way ?
So you contradict yourself....I mean it seems pretty clear to me you have the same attitude as those people...so...it is quite ironic and makes your argument null.
The postings regarding the use of the word "trash" are still there. I also tried to provide an example of the…
No I disagree....otherwise why are you saying "it is not your place ?". You sugarcoat your words (not that much though) but you're basically doing the same thing...

"but I'd offer that it's not your place to tell people who have critiques of the series what they should or should not personally do. " You contradict yourself. Because basically you're also saying to people defending the series to shut up....
someone deleted his comment stating that this series was a piece of trash. i didn't get the chance to reply, so…
Really. I'm not surprised. Since the beginning of this series, you can literally feel that some of those commentators have already made their own (preconceived) idea about the series. They were already prepared to not like it. I wonder why they seem SO disturbed ....There are WAY worse series around here....I don't understand really....And why bother watching something you don't like and comment here...I'm sure they will be here until the end of the series...They are not even aware they are as toxic as shippers....
That's why I call them a bunch of hypocrits...I can't stand unfair criticism...And I absolutely don't believe in their sincerity...
I think the show has made its point about NC scenes in BL. lol If this joke carries into ep. 4, it’ll lose its…
They literally point out the product placements, the producer firing who she wants, the bad engineer series parody...but of course the satire is only limited to smut and sexual harassment....
As for the BL tropes, well it is a BL romcom more than a BL parody. If people watch this expecting more, they will be disappointed...Still it is a very nice and enjoyable series....However, this series has many layers which are very interesting to see and analyze :

That's not very honest...
So...
Since...
...You're ok with yourself (and that's great) and....
...Considering the number of comments you post here for a series.... you don't even like...
Isn't this called some kind of....
over-investment.... ?
(You're full of contradiction, aren't you lol ?)
PS : Not everyone is fluent in english...so you'll forgive me if I didn't catch the subtlety of your words. Sorry lol
PS2: My fluency in English is so bad I didn't know "miss" was meant for a "male".
PS3 : Nice try.
You seem quite the nice person....
