BJ Alex Reviews
-
I am not ready to say goodbye yet.
-
"Alex"(Jiwon) may have been a bit of a dic* at start, but in the end he showed his true self and caring nature, and he was also jealous and protective af. DG deserved to be cared for and they were a good couple.

Menos mal que DG ha sacado un par de webs, ya era hora #StopUkesFelpudo
-
esto no era hearstopper 😳
JAJAJAJAJAJAJ -
This is going to be long and might feel like a rant, so I'd really like to apologize beforehand...
Broadcast Jockeys, or BJs, are Koreans who stream games, music, singing, live talk sessions and sometimes sexually suggestive acts, albeit without nudity. Websites like afreecaTV allow BJs to earn through their streams by giving viewers the ability to pay for certain services.
/ thank you, Urban Dictionary!! / .
Therefore, the title of the webtoon.
Oh, and this is Alex, by the way:
No comment on the way he looks.
He is not the nicest person in the world, OK.
But I liked that he gives the image of someone who knows what they want.
And what he specifically has made clear is that the only relationship he wants is with himself .
And up to this point he’s quite consistent.
DG is the other main character. Alex’s super- biggest-most devoted fan ever. His greatest dream is to meet the eternal object of his desires.
Ta-da-da- guess what happens!!
To some strange plans of fate, they meet in real life and start having a sexual relationship.
Right.
Now, I know this is romance, and most likely those two main characters are going to end up together, but in real life sexually compatible people don’t necessarily fall in love with each other…And a relationship like that often remains only physical.
DG is BEYOND plain as a character and I often thought- why would Alex fall for him anyway?...
Fan-raging /not sure if there’s even such a word, that’s how annoyed I am, I make up words :D / and not respecting someone’s decision is not attractive…
While this started as an awesome and original story, there came a point where I felt beyond annoyed.
It’s still an on-going webtoon and things might change, but I definitely don’t like where this “relationship” is going….
The artwork is one of the most beautiful ones I have ever seen,
but I really expected more from the characters… -
This was actually entertaining. I was fed so I can't really complain. I need recs!
-
God. I just hate all those people who rated this masterpiece so low when it's not even finished. Anyway, it's been a rollercoaster of a ride. Glad I stuck with this manhwa until the very end. *tears of joy*
-
It not only is funny, it is entertaining and cute for the big romance that I suppose is going to happen

"BJ ALEX ha finalizado su transición."
Ok, lo mucho que me dolió leer esa frase y terminar la historia 😩
Vine buscando cobre y encontré oro!!
NO PUEDO CREER LO MUCHO QUE ME GUSTÓ. La historia es tan adictiva y tan buena. Me gustó como se desarrolló absolutamente todo, y bueno puede que la relación suele ser muy tóxica a veces pero me gustó como evoluciono su relación, al final se convierte en una relación tan buena y sana *llora*. Dong-gyun es uno de los personajes más tierno que me ha tocado leer, LO AMO, cada que aparecía quería llorar de ternura, y Alex pues a veces se comportaba como un completo imbécil y entiendo el porqué lo hacía pero no justifica la manera en la que se comportaba con DG, sin embargo me encantó que reconociera su error y tratara de remediarlo. Y las historias secundarias LAS AMÉ, amé ver un poco de su vida después de que se acabara la historia. En fin, me encantó!
Recomiendo este manhwa porque a pesar de tener una historia sencilla atrae fácilmente al público, las personalidades de los personajes atraen demasiado a la hora estar leyendo. LÉANLO YA! BYE *llora al recordar que terminó* -
WOW!!! ❤❤❤❤
I've followed this manhwa now for more than a year and now it's completed.
I can't describe how much I loved it! The characters, the storyline, THE FREAKING ENDING!
If you like Boys Love you HAVE TO READ THIS MASTERPIECE! -
I read all 83 chapters. It took way too long for the characters, specifically Alex, to develop and grow as a character. DG was an uninteresting character because he was written very one dimensional. I liked seeing Alex's growth by the end, but as I said before, it took too long to get there.
-
the way i don’t want it to be over
-
*whispers* Guys... me reading this is between us... okay?
OLD REVIEW:
My friend send me a photo of the main character and I think it’s a calling... -
My first BL webcomic/webtoon, so it has a place in my heart no matter what!
I have read this three times and every time I look at it I want to read it again!! Yes there were some issues here and there like with character development BUT I somehow looked past that and enjoyed it more each time!!
I didn't want this to end, but....*sigh* look at them...
-
3,5 stars*
Read up to ch. 69/ On-going
This is way smuttier than I expected (like way way waaaay smuttier.... there issomea lot of R18 stuff here) but I can't give up reading it!! Read the whole 69 chapters nearly in one sitting. I'm so incredibly impressed with the way the artist has matured both boys along the way.Oh my sweet child DG. I want to hold you in my arms and cherish you as a son. You deserve so much happiness (つ ♥ ͜ʖ ♥)つ
* I gave this one 3 stars because it took TOO MUCH TIME to Alex develop as a character and stop being an asshole. Too much time as in like...50 chapters? Phew. I wanted to slap him so bad but at the end (or should I say towards the middle of the story), his arc works really well because Sensei makes it work. After learning his backstory and the reason why he was the way he was I can't help but feel sorry for him. I just wish it happened way sooner. -
When I hated Alex, I hated him passionately. And when I finally fell in love with him. I fell very hard too. The redemption arc was really good. What could have I done?
The art style was gorgeous. Loved Dong-gyun. He was a cutie pie. Alex was a huge jerk. But he kind of grew on me. After the first 2/3 of the series, he actually became nice and soon turned into the perfect boyfriend material.
The side/ companion story about the other couple was entertaining too.
BJ Alex was hella fun and entertaining. Hot and steamy. I enjoyed every single second of reading the series. -
i def want to write reviews for these webtoons, but i can't seem to find the time to.
with school requirements being rushed before the semester ends and the holidays closing in 😫 it's just not possible for me. So, in the meantime...
All my books: RTC ❤️ -
Primera lectura: 26/Jun/2020 - 12/Ago/2020
Primera relectura: 24/Feb/2021 - 25/Feb/2021
Segunda relectura: 22/Jul/2021 - 23/Jul/2021
Empecé a leer BJ Alex cuando estaba en emisión la side story de Jiwon y DG porque mi inicio de Facebook estaba REPLETO de la side story de Chanwoo y MD, cómo quería saber a qué se debía tanto, decidí leerlo pero no lo terminé hasta que el episodio final de la side story se estrenó hace unos días.
Así que, la historia comienza con DG, un chico gay que se enamoró de un camboy homosexual llamado Alex, todas las noches a las 10pm ve su transmisión en vivo e incluso se consiguió un trabajo en una cafetería para poder darle castañas al camboy, hasta este momento, todo bien, un chico fantaseando con follarse a un camboy gay.
Entonces, Jiwon, el presidente del consejo estudiantil de la universidad en donde DG estudia, lo invita a ir a tomar con algunos chicos de la universidad, al pobre DG le toca sentarse a lado de un personaje que francamente ni recuerdo su nombre pero que en el fandom le dicen "Sangwoo gordo" (se parece bastante a Sangwoo de Killing Stalking pero gordito) el cual lo hace beber al punto en que se emborracha, Jiwon, siendo una "buena persona", se ofrece a llevarlo a su casa, y ahí es donde DG le vomita encima :D vaya forma de dar una buena primera impresión.
Jiwon entra al apartamento de DG y se quita la camiseta para limpiarse y le pide a DG una camiseta prestada, y ahí es donde DG se da cuenta de que Jiwon es, en realidad, el camboy que tanto admira y con el que tanto fantasea, Alex.
Justo después de eso, Jiwon tiene un cambio de actitud RADICAL, amenaza a DG para que no le diga a nadie de su identidad y DG le pide a cambio un abrazo, el cual termina en Jiwon masturbando a DG.
Desde ese momento Jiwon empieza a ser distante con DG, pero, al hacer sus transmisiones en vivo se enfrenta a dos problemas: Uno, se está quedando sin historias de folladas para contar y dos, el porno ya no le sirve para que su fifi se levante.
Jiwon usa la táctica de tratar de recordar lo más cachondo que haya vivido y en su mente lo único que aparece es DG, a partir de ahí Jiwon vive en constante frustración, DG es virgen y a él no le gusta acostarse con vírgenes, aparte que acostarse con un fan es peligroso, ¿y si le dice a los demás su identidad?
A pesar de todo esto, Jiwon tiene una obsesión sexual con DG muy fuerte y profunda, cada que está con él solamente lo imagina en distintas posturas sexuales y ahora para sus transmisiones solamente se le para teniendo fantasías sexuales con DG.
Es entonces cuando Jiwon se harta y decide proponerle a DG ser su compañero sexual, ¿DG aceptará tener exclusivamente una relación física?
Ahora sí, reseña con alerta de spoiler:
Bueno, la historia en sí, me gustó bastante, y hubo un desarrollo increíble en los personajes, más que nada en Jiwon, si bien al inicio él era extremadamente tóxico y maltratador, empieza a cambiar a raíz de que DG se aleja de él y lo supera.
La historia pone a los personajes en situaciones de peligro constantemente y también se toca bastante el tema de salir del clóset, traición por parte de personas cercanas, falta de apoyo y cariño parental y el cómo se embarga uno en su primera relación amorosa.
Claro que, por supuesto, también está el sexo a cada rato.
A pesar de que este manhwa definitivamente no es para un publico menor (por tanto tema sexual y aparte el sadomasoquismo) sí que cuenta una historia más allá de conejeo sin sentido, se ve una evolución de personajes y personajes bien construidos, no se romantizan los comportamientos tóxicos y tiene un buen mensaje para aquellos que buscan salir del clóset
Lo único que sí me brincó fue una escena en la side story de Jiwon y DG donde Jiwon despierta a DG masturbándose entre los muslos de DG, yo estaba leyendo y me quedé como: WHAT? ;-;
Fuera de eso, si se es lo suficientemente maduro para leer esto o si simplemente buscas una historia con mucho sexo homosexual, es una buena lectura.
Editado: lol terminé releyendo esto otra vez este año jsjs -
Alex is a jerk. DG can do so much better.
-
It hurts so much to say goodbye 🥺

4.5/5
Did I read this all night knowing that I have to wake up at 8 in the morning for my ZOOM class? YES
Do I regret it? HELL NO
One word to describe this story:EXCELLENT! The 10-12 chapters weren't that great but man after that the story took a turn. BJ Alex does not give you any of the BS you'd expect in a typical BL story. There's no unnecessary drama, or a jealous friend, or any of the usual cliches. The guys are portrayed like they should be: normal human beings, who just happen to love the same gender. It touches on very real topics like homophobia, acceptance of self, and struggling to find people who accept you as well.
I loved everything about this story. The characters and their motivations were fleshed out so well. Their relationships feel natural and like they make sense. There's no weird Stockholm syndrome ripeness going on here. Also, the emphasis on using contracts and consent with the BDSM couple was amazing. Usage of lubes and condoms is something most BL skip out on, but BJ ALEX doesn't disappoint. There are many steamy scenes, done right.
The art was phenomenal! I really like how the characters were drawn and realistic, having moles and birthmarks. I really like how it was black and white because it was very keen on the eye and how at some moments the author includes color and it really sets that the scene is an important moment even if only a few parts are colored. Definitely a great read for BL lovers! -
I never thought finishing a book would hurt this much.
This was just amazing and the character development is just beautiful. I fell in love with the main characters in the first chapter and just kept falling deeper with each chapter i read. Bj Alex and DG have a beautiful relationship I have ever read about and I will forever love this book.
Let's not forget about the side characters they too added spice to the book and I wanted more of them.
P.s (Dear Lord I'm waiting for you to bless me with a guy as sweet as DG thank you🙇🏾♀️)
I wanna go back in time so that I read it for the first time again😭😍 -
Amaze balls 😍👌🏼👌🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Highly problematic but I still ate it up. Was a good time.

Read until Ch. 75. On going. Lezhin.
I've been following this series for some times now, and thought this webtoon got little under rated here, and some of the review, I think, was not even passed ch. 40-ish yet. I know, why, bcoz that's when Alex became really-really-reallllly a JERK and even I wanted to kick and stab and punch him. But then, it was also a turning point for DG. He realize that what he had with Alex was a toxic relationship and said NO, enough is enough. I love his bravery there.
This was when the story became more interesting and sweet. DG wasn't just Alex' fans and foot warmer, he was a full character. Then a new characters came in and spice thing up. The side characters, MD and Chansoo, get more and more time in center stage, and so on.
For now, chapter 75, beginning of a new arc, dealing with Alex coming out (maybe) and his past (might be). Promising. By and by, this still one of my fav yaoi webtoon.
Btw, yes, the artwork is beautiful.
Updated 20 July 2019
================
It's ended. Ch 83 is the last chapter.
Well, it was a mixed feeling seeing it finalized, I still want to meet both Jiwon and DG's parents and their back stories, I want to meet Jaejin's girlfriend, I want MORE Chansoo and MD *blushing*, but the thing is, it had ended properly. No loose ends. It began with bj alex, it ended with bj alex, hence the title BJ Alex. Jiwon ang DG had a solid story, sad and happy. Jiwon had bad and sweet time, DG came from timid personality into a fine brave man. They have nice true friends and some horrible ugly ones too. Life goes on. Sooo.. yeah, no complain here. Like I said before, one of my fav yaoi webtoon. -
UPDATE: It's over and it has a happy ending. I literally cried while reading the last chapter. I'm gonna miss them so much.
---
4 stars because I think it deserves it but I also have several notes. Spoilers ahead. Tread lightly.
I have a lot of thoughts on this book. In general, a lot of yaoi manga are drawn by straight people who don't know what the fuck they're doing. They'd use the-straight-man-is-now-gay trope a lot (because as I've stated: drawn by clueless straight people) so when I saw this, I didn't have high hopes for it.
But it turns out that the main characters are really gay, bi, and pan. The artwork is amazing. The plot is not mediocre and I really loved the main and supporting characters. Chanwoo is my favorite. He's like a ball of sunshine. Although Alex was such. A. Jerk. That's another thing I don't like. Just because you've had an unfair life and a traumatic experience, it doesn't mean you can treat other people like shit, Alex. Alex was on my nerves for the uh... the whole story. Yep. I even considered dnf-ing it but I was already invested in the story so I was like whatever.
After a very very very long time, the plot and the characters started to change. Thank god. The story is still on-going. It probably won't end in tears. (It might.) Preferably, a happy ending. I have my fingers crossed and I hate being disappointed. Mingwa better not break my heart again. (On another note, my heart has already broken several times throughout the story so what's the point?) -
i would like to formally apologize to my eyes for making them look at this filthy disgrace. i would also like to express my heartfelt condolences to my sanity, which has been shattered and hasn't recovered ever since. my heart goes out to them. i am truly, deeply sorry.
