Lk to YouTube Playlist: #3Featur a Gay si uple wh one of the brothers, Joo Won S, and a universy stunt, Choi Ho Dol, along wh havg many parts of the story take place the Gay bar Joo Won S ns/bartends.

One of the brothers beg Gay and workg at a Gay bar was jt another part of the story, the Gay characters' stori were handled rpectfully and not for the sake of lghs bee of who they were but rather jt the silly thgs they said/did, they showed the different reali for them, and g out was also treated wh re and the ia of outg someone was judged by the characters as beg horrible, as should be. We had an Asexual character they even clarified wasn't Aromantic (FL's iend May), a Gay character (Young Hwa's iend Ye Joon), a background Gay uple (an Amerin actor and his boyiend), a love tert not assumg the woman was Straight, and acknowledgement of wrongly g the muny for one's own benef when one is not a part of and so do not experience the hardships associated wh Joon's story was the longt and I thk they did jtice.

The ML, though, do appear to exprs some unfortablens wh them, but he don't say anythg outright Homophobic.

I will probably be checkg out at some pot the future and will update my thoughts on the qualy of the rep be found on iQiyi #17Featur a Gay SML, Chul Soo, who is the bt iend and bs partner of one of the ma girls, Hye Joo (FL).

Ep 11 and 12 are maly where his story tak place as we learn not only about his sexualy but also about Hye Joo havg unrequed feelgs for him spe knowg he's Gay. That beg said, the drama self was fairly good and I would say if you like healg and female-centric dramas, then you will probably enjoy this be found on ee webs or Rakuten Viki (wh a VPN) #18Note: Fd specific episo where backstory is toldFeatur a Gay SML, Seon Ho, wh unrequed feelgs for his iend, Ju Hyeok.

This tells , the dience, that the wrers really wanted to clu this joke about his disgt/horror at pretendg to be summary, we got a Gay SML here. I wouldn't remend this and I won't be watchg be found on Rakuten Viki #22Briefly featur some Gay characters.

Joseph embodied seemgly every stereotype associated wh Gay men: Sensive, overdramatic, etc., etc.,, this is aga another ocsn which you will need to take what I'm sayg wh a few gras of salt as I have not seen the drama myself. I wouldn't remend watchg this for the rep be found on Rakuten Viki #25Gay, but also not actually the creators had followed through on their Bromance-that-go-beyond-Bromance and ma Kang Yo Han and Kim Ga On a uple this drama would have borred on fuckg amazg. Can be found on Netflix #26Don't actually feature a nfirmed ma or supportg LGBT+ character, but Ep 2 there is tense speculatn by several characters as to whether Jo Eun is a Lbian (based almost entirely on her appearance), which clud Ye Eun and Eun Jae makg Homophobic ments.

There is phback by J Myung but, my opn, the Homophobia really should have been addrsed more directly than jt "Don't discrimate. At that time, I will update this be found on Netflix #27Don't feature an LGBT+ uple or even a proment ma/si LGBT+ character but do ment on the effects of Love Alarm on LGBT+ people as well as Homophobia wh an teractn between one of the MLs and a guy who has feelgs for him, as well as another separate teractn where a guy is gettg bullied by his classmate bee he found out through Love Alarm that he lik be found on Netflix #28Don't actually feature a proment ma or si LGBT+ character/romance but Ep 13 ML Park Moo J, after seeg a popular director announce her Lbian relatnship, realiz that South Korea has not passed the Discrimatn Act Bill and cis to try to ph through.
