This might be the worst BL ever produced...
Not only is drama actually unbelievably homophobic, playing into heteronormative stereotypes and portraying gay people as inherently predatory unless they are basically just straight people who "happen to be gay just for this one particular guy," it also normalizes and makes light of themes such as rape, sexual assault, emotional and physical abuse, and gaslighting. Not to mention that the author of the original novel, who was also involved in the writing and production of this drama to the best of my knowledge, loves to fetishize the LGBTQ+ community while simultaneously exploiting them for shock value in her own works.
This drama was neither created by gay people nor was it created with gay people in mind. It is obviously catering to fujoshis/fundanshis who simply view queer people as material for their sexual fantasies and get off to the borderline pornographic sex scenes in this drama. It's absolutely sick how viewers enjoy and support this and its many sequels and spin-offs when it's so blatantly harmful to not only the LGBTQ+ community but also survivors of rape and abuse.
