Very recommended (if you know what fantasy means)

This drama is very enjoyable and there’s nothing wrong in it.
The notorious “second couple” that seems so shocking to some people, is what I liked the most. Reason is simple: it is the most unrealistic part of the plot and, of course, it plays in a super-sweet way with dark kinks.
Fu Yong Jie is my favorite character and I love him exactly because he is an unreal, romantic, unselfish and vanilla tasted manipulative sociopath. A kind of character that has been part of romance and erotic literature for ages and by now should have worn out his ability to shock people. Sadly it hasn’t so let’s review an old true fact about human race...

In their fantasies, many human beings like to imagine bad guys doing various degrees of bad things to them. Even take them as slaves and then fall in love with them, or other horrible, “toxic” kind of situations. I’m sorry if people who don’t share this kind of taste feel offended by it but… it’s their problem. Not this story’s problem, nor a problem of the people who like this kind of FANTASY. And here comes the most shocking news: this is not school. You don’t learn from dramas how to behave in the real world, same as you don’t learn how to fly watching Superman. This is pure imagination created to please emotional and illogic parts of you, being them about a couple of heterosexual guys falling in love with each other or two siblings, who already love each other, developing a morbid sexual relationship.

Guys, please, read Shakespeare. It’s filled with “toxic” parts of plot (same goes for the holy bible you know?). I’m astonished to see here, again, the old bigoted hypocritical habit of blaming fantasy because it doesn’t respect rules and boundaries of reality. Of course it doesn’t! It’s exactly what makes if funny! You don’t drive a bumper car same as you drive a real car because it’s made to give you fun! Let’s try to make it clear again…

Reality and fantasy are different things. Rules of the first don’t apply to the second.
Nobody is entitled to judge other people fantasies. You can judge actions of other people not what they like to imagine.
If you don’t like something it doesn’t mean that thing is evil, disgusting, or ugly. It only means that you need to watch something else.

I started watching and reading BL in 1999 and I’m astonished to see how bigoted this fandom has become. If this is the result of us, old fans, fighting for the chance and the freedom of reading and watching whatever we liked in a world that considered a girl liking BL as a freak, well, I’m sorry to say new generations wasted our efforts entirely.
You can watch, read, talk about BL because people like me believed that fantasy in all it’s shapes was a sacred world. A world to be defended against any kind of prejudice and any attempt to make it a sad branch of reality. Please don’t forget it because the next “toxic” fantasy to become a target may be yours, for a million reasons none of us can even imagine. This is why we stand for a principle not a personal taste.
