sweetseptember 251 Posted October 1, 2018 9 minutes ago, Harunacamelia said: Hide contents I REALLY DISLIKED ADDICTED due to EVERYTHING that was done to Luo Yin. How anyone thought any of that was sexy or cute or sweet is beyond me. I always side-eye people recommending that drama to newbies in the BL sphere. Ugg... Spoiler After reading your comment my desire to watch Addicted hasn't exactly increased thank u, i should stay away.. I heard Luo Yin could be very "difficult" , a tsundere who would always protest against Gu Hai whenever Gu Hai wanted to touch him etc... but Gu Hai, its still no excuse to kidnap/sexually assault him ! and people keep saying how sexy , manly and amazing Gu Hai is, that he is the number 1 seme in dramaland, etc. Hmm.. ok.. well people are allowed to think whatevr they want of him, as long as they realize what Gu Hai has done is completely unacceptable IRL. Hide contents since I work with defendants from all walks of life, I have had to work with those accused of rape, ranging from young people to the very old...like in their 70s old. And I try not to see them as just these bad actors, but as people with many complexities to them. It's hard due to my moral compass, however, not everyone has the same moral values/meters, we all take our cues from our societies and families. There are cases where throwing the person in prison is the way to go, but there are other cases where it isn't that simple. So, I totally feel for the victims in these types of crimes, but with my years of experience in the Criminal Justice field, I can also say that there are always more layers to those doing the bad actions. That is why for the Kengkla/No relationship, depending on the context of the scene, I will reserve my judgement until it plays out. WOW seems we opened up a big debate here today, great seeing everyone's different opinions Someone mentioned Pete's hands on Ae in the preview OMG I LOVE YOU whoever YOU ARE!!

I'm forcing them to watch it, my mom being such a drama lover, will probably like it (she watches Mexican novelas, but she also liked Diary of a Toosie when I put it on for her). 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The episodes are absolutely awesome on a large screen. I get the official You Tube episodes on to our media system and then play it through our TV in the living room. Dim the lights, lay back and enjoy. 2 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted October 2, 2018 Quote But wasn't money invested in Addicted too? (that's a real question, I actually don't know the background of this show). To be fair, in the show, Gu Hai never sexually assaulted Lin. He just kinda tied him up and kissed him. But he was kinda assertive. Idk he definitely stopped pretty quickly. kissing someone isn' rape, just stupid. Obviously not cool irl but idk creative licenses man. you gotta watch it to see why i excuse it. also idk if they had sponsors cause I definitely didn't notice any.

Jin_mi 2,532 Posted October 2, 2018 Hey everyone. I think I am posting for the first time on this thread. I have been following this show since the start and enjoying every moment of it. Ai and Pete are absolutely adorable. I am also a big fan of Techno and Kengkla couple. They are unlike any couple I have seen so far in BL and I can't wait for their arc to start. For Tin/Can, I still have to feel anything for them. Right now, I am lukewarm but hopefully they will grow on me. Also, kudos to Perth. Despite being quite young, his acting is so on point. I can't wait to see his future works. 18 minutes ago, checkmatey said: To be fair, in the show, Gu Hai never sexually assaulted Lin. He just kinda tied him up and kissed him.

To be fair, had Addicted not been banned, we would have seen Gu Hai actually rape Lin out of spite so I wouldn't necessarily cite him. Sorry for butting in though! 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kidnapping, tiying up and forcely kissing someone is more than being stupid. And it is originally rape and would have been clear on screen without ban. As for creative license, it's a cheap excuse when it comes to BL imho. I mean, let's be serious, Addicted is not exactly a piece of art and artistic license is made to skip mundane details from real life situations to make them look more exciting, not to condone rape cause everyone knows it makes the lead character so manly and attractive. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Obviously not cool irl but idk creative licenses man. you gotta watch it to see why i excuse it. also idk if they had sponsors cause I definitely didn't notice any. If I remember correctly-and please excuse this aging woman-Gu Hai forced himself on Lin. He even went as far as grabbing Lin''s privates when they were sharing the bed even when Lin told him to stop. That is sexual harassing/assault because he was forcing an unwilling Lin into doing sexual things. Also kidnapping Lin trying to rape him to make him stay etc just plain wrong. Again this drama tried to normalize such behavior and many people who still fetishistice or fantasize about it are always raving abut how good it is, when in reality they are perpetuating the idea that those types of behaviors are okay when it's boys. Imagine if Lin was a girl, would the discussion be the same or would people be really upset about it? It's sad that we have to envision a woman in that role to see just HOW fu68Ed up Gu Hai really was. He was an unhealthy character that was glorified by fans because they found the actor sexy/good looking. Imagine him being an "ugly" person...all of the fans would have been calling him a rapist from the get go. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
