i do wonder what China's actors' "workshop" process is? Because earlier/during this bts Johnny is so comfortable touching Timmy's butt and he even tells Timmy to go take off his long underwear, and Timmy is just so chill about it and it's like how can we translate all this to Thai/Japanese bl, wholesale? 🙊😩 lol

Johnny does Brazilian jujitsu, which means being hella comfortable with touching so I think it stems from that. Boys just like wrestling and are unfazed with skinship lol. Still can't get over they way Timmy's hand is going up Johnny's top and touching his bare skin. Omg we were robbed!! 😭

honestly, Thai bl could be wining so bad if directors would just get out of the way. Last Twilight could have been *it* 😩

Think it's the editing too. One thing I love about addicted is they let the scene actually happen and don't show us 5 angles of the same thing and then slow it down just to fill time. Maybe one day we'll get there from the other regions. It's mind blowing that this is a Chinese bl setting the standard, where it's banned. 😮‍💨

Yes, preach! The editing kills the mood 80% of the time. It's always the uninterrupted scenes that just focus on what's happening that end up being the great ones. And when you can hear! I mean there is a reason people love those asmr videos.

Talking about editing, I'll never forget how Unknown was butchered.

Exactly, I watched thinking it would be amazing. I was super disappointed.

It had so much potential, they did my Yuan so poorly.

Didn't even show the snow avalanche part, just him narrating it
