The amount of noise that Love in the big city is making is so profound 😮and just goes to show how much a show like this is needed😭😭it’s one of those shows that through it being the main conversation, it can actually lead to some major positive changes 🙏🏾
Its just crazy to me that if you don't like something then don't support it. Don't watch or pay attention to it. This is not from them. They are not trying to understand the meaning/story reason for this. I'm sad a country is so backwards but happy that the world is supporting this! I just don't understand how hateful people can be and traumatizing this is for them. Its work yet people are mad, say horrible things and then if someone were to end it all, people would then say how sad they are to lose someone.. Korean has the most issues with celebrities doing things to themselves, yet the country still does stupid things like this.
I never believed that Boss and Noeul were in a relationship, for me it’s always been just fan service. I’m glad Noeul is finally saying after 3 years that they’re only good friends. I’ve always thought Boss was straight & wasn’t sure about Noeul but good for him that he feels confident enough to speak about his sexuality.
I never thought Boss and Noeul were in a relationship either, but I did think they were good friends. As for Boss being straight, unless Boss himself says that he is, I don't believe that either. Boss can be straight, gay, bi or whatever he wants to be, hopefully people don't try and push that he's straight if he doesn't want to be classified as such...
The drama of "Love in the Big City" is just weird in this time and age! I grew up with hetero romances all around me and I'm still not hetero, so a gay show wouldn't make anyone queer. It is simple like that. On the other hand, Thailand is getting more open and I'm glad that more and more actors are comfortable to talk about their personal matters like Noeull and Supanut. It just shows that it is perfectly normal to not limit yourself to the "social norm" and choose the way that makes you happy. We only have one life and everybody should live it as happy as possible.
@luunara7065 you're right. And I don't know why they are targeting love in the big city when in fact there are a lot of other korean bl series airing before it.
@@BoysLoveNerd I think it's because it's a lot more ambitious, has a well-known main lead actor, and got funding from the government. It also has realistic themes like HIV and multiple partners, and is arguably more of an LGBTQ drama than a BL (insofar as the distinction is meaningful). This would not have mattered much in, say, Thailand, but Korea is still much more conservative than many other countries in the region in this respect. We know that Korean BL producers often have problems finding sponsorship, which is why we often see short, low budget BLs out of Korea. But I love how Nam Yoonsu is being very outspoken, confident and proud of the project, just laughing off the haters. He really has taken a firm stand and doesn't care about how this might affect him. King!
I’m glad you mentioned the distinction between a BL and LBTQIA drama. They are different. I just vacationed in S. Korea (2 weeks) and it’s a beautiful country. I saw a few gay men holding hands, which surprised me. I was with my son and his husband!
@@cathystussi7165 If its anything like China (never been, just going on what people have told me), there's strong opposition because families expect their children to get married and have kids, especially the boys, to carry on the family name, so it can be very hard for families to accept it. But there's also less hate crime than in the west because unless people are Muslim or Christian (which are a minority), there's no religiously based condemnation of homosexuality as "sinful" or "evil", just a cultural view on it as "unnatural" or "unmanly". (AFAIK, buddhism doesn't have anything to say about homosexuality.) People might be very prejudiced, but gay people are less likely to be attacked in the street, at least in the big cities. (Chinese government repression is a different matter.) Again, this is just what I've heard others say, and I don't know how true it is or if Korea is similar.
@@aprillen I believe that’s true. About 20% of South Koreans identify as Christians, according to a 2023 survey. SK has no majority religious group, with the majority of the population being non-religious. So it’s cultural. I believe it is very slowly changing. Parents of LGBTQI persons need to realize that their children can still create families, even biological ones.
Some of the people protesting Fuaiz's photos are raging hypocrites. Some of the people being the loudest, about how inappropriate the photos were, were the same people screaming in joy online about Fuaiz's sexy dance act with Bas, just a day later. Many of the protesters just wanted to attack BoC and/or Apo, whilst still lusting at their BasFuaiz ship. Ironic how they don't mind their ship, but set a limit at two photos.
Congrats to Apo for organizing such a successful fundraiser! I have no delusions that the actors are in an offscreen relationship. I think we need to support them as individuals as well as couples.
In perspective I would accept the age of consent over legal age....a person may be of legal age but not giving consent. But yet again to each of its own.
The picture of the people protesting are all old people. Your time has passed now leave the world to use to shape the way we want it and what makes us feel safe
@Anelta_Rant that's what people are saying as well, that most of them were old people and if my memory is right, some of the protesters were from churches.
It's funny to me that Korea is like this.. they had a Bl in which they made it het and it was a HUGE flop. Protest and all. The hets did nothing to support it and you see how it turned out. Now they are big mad, something like this to be protested for sexuality.. I haven't seen them protest about DV or other related things to other dramas this hard. Hypocrites
@@exoislife9807 high school return of a gangster. It was originally BL but they changed it to straight because they thought it would do better mainstream. LOL the backlash was swift. The hetros were happy but it flopped because no one supported it. It came out that they didn't even have enough money to pay the actors. No one liked it. Took me awhile to find because it was around last year.
Fuiaz is 18 but in Canada and many other countries, that is considered an adult. I understand that its different in different countries but he is consenting. I don't get it.
It's easy to understand. As you said, it's another country. They're all in Thailand so they should do things according to the law of said country. And knowing that grooming exists(not saying that's what happened here), people are not comfortable even if he consented. That's why.
True it's there laws and it's a good thing you know why because in the entertainment industry world wide sick people work and illegal predatory things happen to people who work in the industry he was too young in Thailand to be placed in that situation too young and consent or not no it's not going to happen I hope they learn but they won't
@@anitalake1 It's the fact that what had happened in the company previously really gives people bad impression when another young actor was placed in the position where they're required to do multiple NC with nudity involved. Eventhough he is old enough to give consent, as long as he wasn't legally an adult in that country then most fans would be uncomfortable with it.

I can't be the only one thinking it's weird to auction off explicit pictures of actors. Like we surely don't live in such an optimistic world where people buying those photos are just fans supporting their favs with no underlying motivs?? Not even gonna talk about the Fuaiz situation cause whenever I point out his involvement in this project let alone the series itself doing all those scenes when the pre-production/workshops must have started when he was a minor I am called an anti. Let this anti ask for an investigation on boc for child exploitation for dff and 4min.
I will probably get into trouble for saying this, but I thought the blind item was Zee and NuNew, but I could be wrong. Through fan clips, I've been hearing Zee talk to NN about raising his voice at him, and there are clips of NN slapping Zee's hand away. I am in the minority where l do not think they are a real couple and with the age difference and NN's singing career on the rise, I can see them doing solo projects. I do think they owe it to their fans to be honest and concrete. Take an example from Noeul, Mew, Tul, Neo. As far as underage, to me, if Fuaiz can go to adult jail, enlist in the military, and is above the age of consent at the age of 18, I don't see the problem.
@blureader1164 Don't worry dear😊 It's your own opinion so it's totally acceptable. I also read some comments about it that it can be zee and nunew, so you're not the only one thinking about it. Plus I'm also skeptical about adding zee and nunew to the list of real life bl lovers because I don't want to mislead people if ever they were not. It's really hard to figure out if it's just fanservice or real especially after the mewgulf issue plus some bl couple break ups happening lately😮💨 I'm just happy to see them working together, if they're lovers than its fine with me cuz that's their life and if not, than fans just need to accept it.
@@BoysLoveNerdSince they have openly stated that there dating irl and are doing projects together, I don't think it's them. Although they were the first I thought of 😅
@@kpe02but just recently Zee did an interview & he was very ‘ambiguous’ about his relationship with Nunew. Saying something along the lines of ‘it may not be forever but we’ll make the most of it while we can’ which was very telling. Zee has never said that he’s in love with Nunew and wants to be with him forever instead it’s more about being there for him. He also talked about being apart more due to different commitments. Zee plays with his words in regard to Nunew, it’s never straightforward, he leaves it open ended. I’ve always thought Zee was rather calculating, he knew being with NuNew would bring him a lot of attention & now that he’s got what he wanted publicity wise he’ll move on in the future.
I won't believe Zee and NuNew are a real couple unless they come out and officially state those words clearly to make sure there is no doubt afterward. If they do, I will believe them. Or if they actually propose to eachother like MewTul did. Otherwise, I'll assume they are just really good friends in real life who are very comfortable with eachother. I mean they could be platonic soulmates too that aren't into eachother in a romantic/sexual sense. But yeah, they def are good friends in real life though, I do get that vibe from them.

Thanks for the the updates atlist you are one of the few who don't come on social media to bash bl actors
They need to do counter protest for support for Big City
