Regarding Stay With Me

My dumbarse’s official statement on Stay With Me

Upcoming BL censored bromance:

Stay With Me

(2023)

This is the only time I'll be talking about this. You know my policy, censor the censors.

Yes it's a "Censored Adaptation Of Same-sex Original Work" as MDL puts it.

Yes that original work is 哥哥你别跑 or Addicted Heroin.

Yes I think it is actually disgusting they are doing this. ESPECIALLY to this property.

I’m aware Taiwan is somehow involved (and I’m scared about that) but I still think it will be a censored bromance, and if not it will be sad. (See 2022's In Your Heart. Or don't 'cause... sad.)

It will be 24 eps, air Friday & Saturday 30 min each.

I will not be watching it.

I will not list the source. You are permitted to watch it if you do so grey (waves hand in dictatorial manner). This is the one circumstance where I will say this.

I will not talk about it further.

I will not be blogging or reposting anything about it after this.

It will not show up in my weekly round ups.

Censor. The. Censors. Do not give them power. In the entertainment industry: power = attention. My policy = VOID. I too can practice the brutalistic art of censorship.

I discus Chinese censorship of gay content here.

And I have a History of Chinese BL here.

I remember 2016-2017.

I remember gay Chinese vloggers I considered friends being taken down and disappeared off YouTube

I remember danmei authors being thrown into prison.

You can make your own life choices. This is my blog you've strayed into. Guess what? I too have a ban hammer. Don't tempt me.

LOOK

It’s REAL FUCKING SIMPLE

If this show were het = they kiss. But they don’t kiss because they not het. I not watch it.

Mmmm’kay?

I told myself I wouldn't watch Stay With Me because it's a bromance and I wasn't gonna go down that dark road again. I proved to myself that I am not just a clown ; I am the whole circus.

sigh

My friend describing me: If you give a dork a pandemic, he'll work from home. If you let a dork work from home, he'll find a new obsession to wile away the empty hours. If you give a dork a new obsession, he'll become an expert on Asian BL.

Trailer: Stay With Me

Su Yu, a high school student who lives a simple life with his father, faces a major change when his mother remarries a wealthy man, introducing him to his step-brother Wu Bi. Despite their initial differences-Wu Bi being a cold and arrogant top student, while Su Yu is an unreasonable underachiever-their relationship takes an unexpected turn after an accident. As they gradually warm up to each other, their bond grows stronger. However, when a heated fight arises, their true identities are revealed...

After A League of Nobleman, this Justice in the Dark is the second chinese bromance(?) drama from my watchlist ^^ airing in 2023.

i wasn’t expecting this one AT ALL but i’ll take it xD and i’m starting to get hopeful for other bro dramas that we are dying to see..

i never read the novel for this or anything really, so i am quite confused while watching this drama (ep 1 done) and the vibe is pretty unique? is noir the right word? i don’t really know but something like that? ^^’

Hi!!! I love your blog so much, especially your weekly summaries-- they are just so helpful! I was wondering if you know of any Bls with the military/policemen/fire fighters? I know military service is mandatory in thailand and south korea so I was wondering if there were any Bls that have one the main characters in the military (or police, firefighters etc.) Thanks so so much!

Hi!!! Thank you!

BL BADGE BUNNIES ACTIVATED!

Sure thing. There are a few, not many. Countries with conscription policies (e.g. Korea & Thailand) usually have a defacto ban on realistic/non-positive representation of military service in their media. In other words, BL by its nature (gay in military) stays away from this setting.

BLs in uniform (featuring military/policemen/fire fighter romances)

A Tale of Thousand Stars Thai 2021 YouTube (ranger) - With great casting and cinematography this drama nods at BL tropes but manages to elevate them (and itself) with a strong mature story concept about a spoiled rich kid who gets a heart transplant and becomes a teacher it order to pay out survivor’s guilt. On the way he falls in love with a local park ranger and contends with his own classism and escapist tendencies. Everyone seemed to perfectly suit their roles and GMMTV made the most out of its stable. Combined with excellent production (and post production) values, 1000 Stars is without question GMMTV’s most mature, charming, and smart BL series. I think it should go down as one of the top BLs of all time. I feel safe recommending this one to friends and non BL watchers. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

HIStory 3: Trapped Taiwan 2019 Viki (cop) - Basically the definition of enemies to lovers from Lin Pei Yu. This is a cop + the mafia man he is chasing but WAIT, they fall in love. Added bonus side couple: assassin and nerd cop ALSO falling in love. It’s great. All the leads are stellar. Its high heat, fun action, and a bit of a mystery drama but pretty about all of it. My only warning is that the main couple doesn’t entirely end up together, it’s implied, but… amorphous ending. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

Your Name Engraved Herein Taiwan 2020 Netflix? (army, recent history) - This movie is fantastic but it is also seriously depressing, it’s a self acceptance journey, but if you wanna wallow in high quality acting and serious gay drama, this’ll do it. MIXED REC, NOT FOR SPECIFICALLY BL FANS

S.C.I. AKA SCI Mysteries China/Hong Kong 2018 YouTube? (censored bromance, cops) - This is a police procedural with a censored main couple of police investigators who live together basically as husbands, it’s just not talked about. This is one of the first BLs I ever saw (I found their relationship very confusing). RECOMMENDED

Guardian China 2018 grey (censored bromance, cop) - Episodic urban fantasy meets police procedural, one of the most epic long term pinings in the history of long term pinings. RECOMMENDED

Light Taiwan 2021 Gaga (cop) - Ironically titled movie about a street hustler (incest, rape, abuse survivor - all depicted on screen) who falls in (and in love with) an undercover cop. TRIGGERS

Shorts & Sides

A First Love Story Korea 2021 YouTube & Gaga (military service) - Strongberry are true masters of their craft and yet A First Love Story is still one of the best things they have ever produced. It’s the only microfilm ever to make one of my year end top ten list. It’s two episodes of about 8 minutes each that manage to perfectly portray the sweetest friends-to-lovers confession ever. It’s joyful, and gentle with its characters, and a little hot. How on earth do they manage to leave us yearning for more yet completely satisfied at the same time? It’s like the perfect amuse-bouche, that one finger food at that one cocktail party that you will never forget. You are a ridiculous human if you haven’t spent 16 minutes with these two boys. Go watch it now. Or go watch it again. It’s time VERY well spent. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

Just Friends? Korea 2009 Gaga (military service) - Boyfriends, one of whom is on military leave, trying to decide on coming out and the future. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

(also one of Korea's first BLs, they would NOT stick to this style, it's way more Taiwan feeling.)

The Immeasurable Taiwan 2021 Gaga (cop) - Police officer falls in love with a student who turns out to be an anti-establishment activist. MIXED REC

DanYok side couple in Not Me (cop)

I've left out bodyguards and historicals (or both).

I've left out the super dark, unhappy, violent, rapey, and pinks, because... I don't like 'em, and you asked me... so...

Now you know why the BL adaptation I want more than ANYTHING is Decedents of the Sun, soldier+healer but GAY? Come on, it writes itself!
