After breaking up from a 5-year relationship, I got cast for a dating show...
About
[BL] Dating Show After five long years of dating, we finally said our goodbyes. One day, while repeating a life without you—crying all day and drinking myself to sleep—I received a message. "..A BL dating show..? Bullshit." Drinking that day was a mistake. In my drunken state, I accepted the production team's offer... and now, that day has finally come.
