Agree like I wish they’d clarify that the character is 100% hetero…. Prior to meeting their lover. Now they’re bisexual. Even if it means their lover is the only same sex relationship they’d ever consider. Still bisexual.
Exactly or at least include that into the story as one of the mc's internal thoughts, and then have him come to the realization that he's actually bisexual later on, that could've been nice and refreshing to see but nope this is coming directly from the author and it just seems like they genuinely believe you can be straight and gay at the same time but only for one person of course otherwise you're just gay I suppose, because there's no in between right? To each their own be it sounds more like a closeted bisexual man to me lmao
Exactly but I think you’re right, I don’t believe that they believe in the concept of bisexuality very heavily in Korea. Probs just a cultural thing.
God I can't with this "oh but he's gay but only for his lover" thing , yes there is a reason behind the way he's acting towards the guy he kinda likes, it's called bisexuality lmao and it's not some big mystery .Also I've read all of that author's previous works and between this one and unintentional love story, I'm starting to think they genuinely don't understand that there is no such thing as being 100% straight if you're attracted to other men even if you only have strong feelings for just one of them in particular at the moment, but oh well I've been reading Korean BLs for a while now guess I shouldn't be surprised with how conservative they are when it comes to that stuff, but come one it's 2025 they should know and do better
