this song doesn't really fit them, and actually... is more, in my mind, if shipping, for reincarnated/time-traveling but...

but also side-angled shots

I actually did enjoy watching Cutie Honey: Beloved Enemy, but I have to admit that even more enjoyable than the literal viewing was getting the opportunity to contemplate a Showa era magical girl in a completely new medium -- the vertical drama, hyper-short multi-episode series optimized for vertical smartphone viewing.

Cutie Honey: Beloved Enemy (キューティーハニー BELOVED ENEMY), Episodes 1-3

[guzhufuren]

Shui Qian Cheng, author of danmei novels that Meet You At The Blossom and My Stand In were adapted from revealed in a Douyin live that another one of her novels 'Beloved Enemy' got licensed to be adapted into thai series and is in progress right now.

This novel was already made into a censored chinese series in 2017.

Novel summary: "Gu Qing Pei, the new director who was poached with a high salary, his first challenge at his new post was to help his boss raise his son! A rich, hot-tempered, and arrogant second generation princeling best at causing trouble — Yuan Yang who had been cultured in the army for many years is rebellious and domineering but Gu Qing Pei has the confidence to make him bow down and submit. No one in this life has dared to make Yuan Yang feel so grievous and troubled! Facing Gu Qing Pei's treacherous smiles and oppressing advances step by step, forcing him to learn to take over the family business, Yuan Yang decides to give Gu Qing Pei a profound lesson. Instead, he loses control of the situation and they develop into another type of relationship! With Gu Qing Pei and Yuan Yang’s equally opposing and hostile attitude like enemies… will they look at each other with hatred or will it ignite into a different kind of spark?"

Oh my heart 💓

The bond between these two is so …

As a family outcast Chong Yi Biao thought his whole life was a sin but of all the memories that he reflects on - the leaps and jumps in his self-esteem, confidence, pragmatic optimism and sense of purpose are the true products given birth to by the relationship he has had with Prince E Shun and that he yearns to restore.

In the end all love really feels the same whether it is a parent or a romantic partner and it helps you to envisage and become your best self.

Speaking of love, can you really call yourself a Chinese BL and there isn’t a little Gong kidnaps or abducts Shou here and there - no, that’d be preposterous 😄

"Beloved Enemy" #针锋对决 is about to remake the story that was made into a series in 2017. Adapted from the Chinese novel Top IP of the author 水千丞 (Shui Qiancheng). This time, who will play the role of the director. Gu Qing revealed that Elite businessman is gentle but cold, intelligent, highly professional, who has to help the president of the company to teach the son of a bad guy, Mr. Yuan Yang. The former Special Forces soldier is stubborn and ruthless. Even his father can't defeat him. 😆

The location will be in Thailand at the end of April. The number of episodes is 16 (45 minutes each).

Thoughts on Beloved Enemy Getting a Thai Adaptation

Originally this was a response to another post but I think it deserves its own. To be honest I'm not confident about this project at all. This is (imo) not one of SQC's strongest works and is really really really not fitting for today's BL audience. To demonstrate what I mean, here's an alignment chart of 8 of the (current) eleven gongs/tops in the 188 series (courtesy of a moot of mine on X, link to the original thread in the description).

Ming is the guy highlighted in purple. Look at how high he is situated relative to the other guys (and this is his novel counterpart btw). Now I love (most of) my 188 blorbos so it is with true affection that I say Ming really is pretty mild for 188 standards but I remember everyone losing their collective shit over Ming and he was already sanitised in the show. Basically 99% of you can't handle Yuan Yang (or whatever his name will be in Thai). It's not even just the non-con. I'm not sure how familiar people are with the original plot of the Beloved Enemy novel but without spoiling too much, the main conflict is so vile that even I, a resident toxic yaoi enjoyer, was traumatised by it. The moot who made the chart even explained that they added the 人渣 scale specifically because of Yuan Yang. Is he uniquely bad, no, not really actually. He's just really bad in a boring basic way that I lost interest and couldn't even stand to read the extras.

Seriously, why THIS particular IP (I know why, it's for money) when Winner Takes All is right there. Look at him, Zhao Jinxin is the cutest red flag, he's not even a red flag, he's a pink flag. He will gaslight you, he gaslit me, he's the gaslighting king (actually no, that's probably Luo Yi or Shao Qun but Jinxin actually won me over so really who wins).
