Re: Asian dramas with gay characters (preferably not BL)
(Anonymous) 2017-04-22 09:22 pm (UTC)(link)I watch more films than TV shows, so I'd also be interested in recs, but I know I've seen quite a few gay films. From Korea, too - I don't think there's censorship there of gay stuff there? Not sure what you mean by that. Anyway, a Japanese one I watched recently was, warning, based off a BL manga - but it's not fetishy, one of the characters explicitly identifies as gay, there's no rape, and the characters are working adults. It's called Doushitemo Furetakunai, I really enjoyed it. The actors are really good, too, which is also a rarity among BL-adaptations.
Re: Asian dramas with gay characters (preferably not BL)
(Anonymous) 2017-04-22 10:09 pm (UTC)(link)And yes, non-BL as in "not a BL manga adaption" - there are quite a few, especially from Japan, and maybe I just found the wrong ones but the ones I tried looked pretty cringey. I'd mostly love something that wasn't a romance/relationship centered show, but that might be a bit too much to ask...
Oh, but Korea is pretty iffy on censorship when it comes to gay content (especially m/m gay content). At least for TV shows. Koreans dramas with gay characters can be counted on one hand, I think. And with movies, it's pretty telling that the few gay characters that are there tend to die in more or less gruesome ways.
I think I have seen the one you mentioned around, I'll give it a try! Thanks!
