Well, the first thing I want to say, is that, if you want to know whether you are a gay, watch this movie. If you get "sexually excited", you are. It's because there is a lot of explicit male sex scenes. Too explicit that I don't want to describe.
Secondly, a lot of viewers felt like it was too uncomfortable. But if you think further. It's not just about a gay whose name is Ke Yang, trying to living in a homosexual life. In some scenes, we can see the dilemma of being a gay. I think a lot of people may have a similar feeling that when they identify themselves as a gay/lesbian, do they need to reject the feeling of being a homosexual, or happily accept it, just like Ke. The ending scene where Ke gets dismembered then gets consumed may be annoying and illogical but it goes to superstition. If you believe in it, it makes sense, but if you don't, then you will think it doesn't. In a lot of oriental cultures, when you do sth that is evil in your precious incarnation, you will pay for the action in this life.
