For me---I'm in my mid 30s and I'm still a virgin (not ashamed to admit), I don't crave sex or an urge to be with anyone, but when I do create a bond with someone, I do want that intimacy/hand holding etc. It's hard to explain...There are so many levels to being and ACE person. For me, i'm the type that is strictly against the sex, but like the idea of being in a relationship with someone, but since it's unfair to the other person not to have that intimacy, I chose not to be in a relationship. Either way, Ae is such a great character and I like the way that the directors are taking him. I do hope they don't make him into the stereotypical "I'm only gay for Pete" but rather make him into a character many young people can relate to. Also want to add that ACEs do have sex (well most, especially if they want to make their partners happy) So Ae could still be an ACE even if he and Pete have sex. It would be such a great surprise if his character was Bisexual or an ACE. I did mention above that his past experience (well, lack thereof) makes him seem a bit asexual. But the hints so far still all point to him being gay, according to me. I think no one ever did it for him before because he was looking in the wrong places (aka vaginas, haha, sorry to be crass). But he got a hard-on from touching Pete's chest. That doesn't seem to fit asexual (as I understand it, from reading about it on the internet and NO experience in real life, so just tell me to shut up if I'm wrong. ) No reason to be ashamed of voluntarily being a virgin because you don't feel like having sex. Do what you want, that's my life plan. The internet is a great way to connect people. Is there not yet any sort of dating site specifically for asexuals? I see asexuals all over online saying they would like to be in a sexless relationship. And hear hear! to your penultimate paragraph. Once again. I don't want him to be "gay for Pete, and Pete alone, he of the mesmerizing soft cheeks"! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only time I actually saw one was in MIR2...lol...so this director was involved in that too..so perhaps there is hope ! 20 minutes ago, Kim Soo-Lee said: You're right about the condoms, but i really can't see either of them going out and buying condoms. Unless Pond gives them one.... or more.... and shows them how to use them. Well, if we go back to the scene where Ae brought Pete to his room for the first time <pause> I don't think Pond is the best role model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought I had seen everything they'd released... In the newest music video, there is the scene when Ae seems to be naked, or at least shirtless, and Pete looks surprised and sort of flees (maybe to the bathroom?) but I don't think that's it. He was sitting on the bed, carrotless. Hahaha, let me know if you find the video again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really respect this director. There are. This director takes the time to craft the scenes and coach the actors in terms of what they should be feeling and most importantly how that feeling should look. Then the camera and editing takes over...LOL There were some great scenes in LS that you can see mimicked in LBC and no less powerful. Yes, i am in awe to director for his past and present work that enjoy me a lot. LBC is actually to my eyes what the BL production have made the best there is on this market! Right, lot of LS references (including music) reminds me this serie has to stick in people's mind! Error of the past have been rubbed raw for offer us the best serie of the year, if not the best of all time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Yes, they are. Help.) Since some years i live with my asian chinese lover, which are not at all into BL serie/movie (he have other interest). He is always teasing me, and have joke on me cause i'm into BL thing. He is not jealous i watch "other nice and handsome asians", he only think he doesn't understand what interest there is to watch BL! He is more into chinese "flying sword" movies! Fairy tale VS Love story! His last fav one is Tsui Hark "Di Renjie: The four heavenly kings". I am only into realistic affair! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't want him to be "gay for Pete, and Pete alone, he of the mesmerizing soft cheeks"! Thanks for your kind words. In NYC where I live, there is an official ACE group where like-minded people can meet and talk about living as an ACE. Sadly, it's hard dating as an ACE even within the same community. And yes some ACEs can get aroused-sometimes our bodies just do things on their own-but they may not act upon that. For some, they might even feel disgusted. Again, it's hard to explain, I only know about my experience or lack of. There are five categories of ACEs as far as I know--could be more with the ever changing non-conforming, non-binary people who are still not sure where they fall in the spectrum. I'm actually really glad that in this drama Pete is a character that already knew he was gay, instead of the BL dramas where the characters don't know and end up having drunken sex and suddenly go "oh I guess i'm gay now but only for this person"....As for Ae I'm still hopeful that the direction is that he has never experienced love so he never chose to be straight or gay and now it's when he is questioning his sexuality. As an ACE i enjoy it more when they (Pete and Ae) have subtle moments like staring at each other or holding hands. That type of intimacy is a lot more butterfly inducing than anything else in this world (to me LOL). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The carrot moment is super hilarious and so relateable to many people who get tongue twisted in front of their crush. Pete's face was priceless and then Ae's smirk just put the cherry on top in that scene. Ae seems to tease Pete without realizing it, then he smirks like "oh I did that to him" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
