Reading this again after 8 years because it’s October and I need some psychological-thriller media in my life. Unlike what I thought 8 years ago in my youthful stupidity, it’s definitely not yaoi
For the people saying it is, it’s not. A horror movie where s-xual cr-mes take place isn’t hentai/porn, it’s a type of depiction and a common reality of Stockholm Syndrome. Just because two men have sex DOESNT make it yaoi, this is a psychological thriller and there are scenes of two men having very disturbing sexual interactions that are brought on by abuse, manipulation, threats, etc.
not to mention Sangwoo is straight, he stays straight, and literally couldn’t even get it up when Yoonbum wasn’t wearing female clothes. He’s not gay, he’s a psycho who used him as a toy, not as a lover or even sex partner
This is not meant to even focus on a relationship, on sex, or on gay men or a mlm relationship. THATS what makes this NOT yaoi. Its explicit, yes, it’s a story that features two men, yes, but those are the only connections made here to Yaoi.
Hopefully that clarifies why this is NOT yaoi and I’m hoping no one sees this as anything more than a psychological situation. Anyways, happy spooky season everyone! Stay safe!
