Stepbrothers, but Make it Awkward: BL's Bizarre Obsession with Incest 😳

Great job , well in depth description 😊

The new series The On1y One has put me in a difficult position. The series itself with no doubt is a masterpiece since the director of Your Name Engraved Herein is on it my expectations were reached! However, with these tropes I’m always left with the thought of ‘how will it work out for them in the long run?’ since the characters are already put in such a difficult position of being in the same family whether they knew each other prior or after their parents got together… I think what I like most about The On1y One is that it approaches that sensitive part to the trope with a touch of reality and you get that sense throughout the whole series. They approach it so realistically that the bitter-sweetness through these tropes should be expectant and that’s what makes the series so watchable. My only problem is with some projects… like history4 which clearly glorifies/romanticizes abuse.

I haven't gotten to On1y One, I should start it, but I heard the ending was a bit disappointing, what do you think?

@@therottengirl7733 The ending is a cliffhanger but we are anticipating a second season since the novel doesn’t stop there. I think of it as a part one to how we get there with their developed feelings and the second part will be how they take on those feelings towards each other. Their bond and realization is captivating throughout the first part. You definitely won’t be disappointed because both the actors chemistry are on fire! The way the director decided to take this on… I mean wow. I don’t want to spoil too much but make your own judgement after you watch it I don’t think you’ll be disappointed :) Also afterwards you could check out the Sub-Red of the minor differences they changed from the novel to the live adaptation and those minor differences are just sooo… yeah amazing.

@@therottengirl7733 Oh! If you do end up looking at it I want to tell you to watch the episodes to the end of the after credits. I know some of them have an after credits scene showing the other person’s P.O.V. on moments. A lot of people missed them and had to go back lol. They’re important, shows you what the other one is thinking or going through from their interactions.

dude i've always noticed this and steered clear because if it was real life it would be so weird?? imagine growing up with someone, wether from birth or young age, you live with them or are like cousins who see each other often. and then they say they love you romantically... shudders. adopted/ blood related or not if you see them as family that line cannot be crossed. and this is where the "forbidden love" fascination comes in. bl itself often has themes of forbidden love and this is like a spinoff of that so i can see why it overlaps often. i've seen many incest adjacent premises like this become popular. i also think people are too quick to turn a blind eye as long as they are not literally related. this is also a conversation that could continue in so many different directions, straight romances, siblings, other countries, GUILTY GUILTY GUILTY LMAO

So, before I continue to watch this amazing video, I just want to say I have been longing for someone, anyone to talk about this. I'm very uncomfortable with this trope and I always stay clear from watching any drama that even insinuate the will have this. I don't like it, and I could not finish The Unknown after 2 episodes.

[@therottengirl7733]

It's definitely not everyone's cup of tea, it does give a few gems every now and then, it's also an easy fuel for drama

[@kadishabones2810]

@@therottengirl7733 So true, but I don't judge other for liking this trope because I do like other questionable tropes.

[@therottengirl7733]

Don't we all 😉

[@beomgyuarmpithair]

Before watching full video I would say that THANK YOU INFINITY TIMES for slandering this trope. Honestly I'm sick and tired of stepbrother romance. Like can taiwan stop already? If these were thai people wouldn't waste a SECOND to call out

[@therottengirl7733]

Well I don't think I Fully slander the trope, because between the two of us I'm fascinated by it (whisper) don't tell anyone, but I did call it for what it is, it is incest without calling it incest😅
