Thanks for setting up this community!

I started reading yuri manga and watching yuri anime back when I was a a teenager. Then I discovered JJWXC, probably through a Chinese forum called Yamibo. I don't remember which was my first baihe novel, but Ming Ye's She Who Is Willing Will Take the Bait (愿者上钩) and The Collapsing Palace (宫倾) were definitely among them. My first GL manhua was SQ / Their Story.

I enjoy translating as a hobby sometimes, and subtitled The Message after watching it in 2021 and loving the subtext between the 2 female leads. There's another older drama I'd like to subtitle, Love's Lone Flower (孤恋花) from 2005, mainly because of how much it affected me the first time I watched it. I'll get around to it one of these days!

Thank you so much for subtitling The Message! I know loads of people are excited to finally be able to watch it while understanding what's going on. There's a ton of dialogue too so that's lots of work!

Please feel free to post reviews of anything baihe/Chinese GL-related if you'd like! Also, please feel free to ask for help here once you get round to subtitling Love's Lone Flower (Yuen Wing Yee and Lee Sinje?? Takes me back!), if you need support on timing, QC-ing, etc.

Thanks! I could definitely use some help with QC-ing when the time comes.

I would also like to take this opportunity to thank you for subtitling The Message. Would not have been able to watch it otherwise. Cannot imagine how long it took you. :o

Would love to watch Love's Lone Flower if you (or anyone else) get around to subtitling that show.

Thank you and much appreciation!
