1. Just how much of a flop do you have to be to start accepting BL scriptsㅋㅋㅋ

2. Ahㅠㅠ Even 'Oh! My Assistant' is receiving a drama adaptationㅠㅠ I feel like all BL romcoms will start getting adaptedㅠ..ㅠ I'll just avoid all of those... I hope the writers can make a lot of money though ㅠ.ㅠ

3. Can they just stick to original works for BL dramas? They keep adapting works that I've already read and I won't be able to bring myself to watch them

4. I'm so relieved that my bias is doing well enough that he doesn't need to resort to things like that. Flop-dols-ah, find strength

5. Nowadays, I feel like people saw how big Semantic Error blew and think that they can all achieve it.

It's nice to see that Semantic Error hit big so we're broadening the genres in the industry with BL, but I don't like the fact that idols view this as a last resort for hitting big. It has the image of being the last choice a flop-dol can make to gain recognition... I feel like it can't be helped, but it'll probably get resolved by itself gradually

6. Yeah, that's only for flop-dols, those kids who think that their bias can hit big after shooting a BL drama, I hope you get hit by the biggest boomerang♥ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

7. I like reading BL but I hate this so much... It's not because they like the works, ather, they just see it as plain money and as a way to go viral... People who are planning these probably think the audience is disgusting

8. I don't want that, I hope my bias doesn't do it

9. I welcome originalsㅋㅋㅋ But I'm not sure about live adaptationㅋㅋㅋ I feel like everyone hates live action adaptations.. As someone who has been fangirling a long time on BLs, this is tough for me

10. I don't really care, but I just hope they stop picking existing works... It makes searching for them and fangirling on the original work so hard
