Time for my first overall review here! I hope I am doing this right lol I've not done one before, so bear with me.

Well done - but one technical issue: For the majority of us with screen set to default white, the white text is invisible until we highlight it. ETA: Subsequently fixed!

I've not yet watched "Goddess" but hope to when I have capacity. (I likewise loved "Khemjira", my favourite BL of 2025, even though I'm not a horror person.)

It's curious that Change2561 is further investing into Pavel & Pooh (upcoming "Grim Lover") but seems to be neglecting Supanut, Ping, Garfield and Benz, while at the same time entering the school BL segment with an all-new cast in "Class Crush Crisis". (There's also "Crow Club" in the production queue, along with some GL projects.)

oh my god thank you! I didn't think of that, I edited the post so hopefully that fixes that. I will keep it in mind. I really hope this works, cause I default dark mode and if I have to change the text colour every time, Imma be annoyed.

Khemjira is a very very high standard, its going to take a insane BL to be able to topple it from being the best horror bl out there, thai bl anyway. It was enjoyable, if you're not a horror person there was a few jump scares, but for the most part I saw them coming and I'm not that good with horror either haha

I miss Garfield/Benz! I am so sad they parted ways, but I really hope I get to see more of their work in other shows. Supanut/Ping haven't had a main show after I'm the Most Beautiful Count right? I didn't keep track of any. And I know that a few of the boys are going to be in The Crow Club like? next year? I think? I mainly know that because of SailubPon my beloveds. lol

Angel:

Yes, it's fine now. Yay!

Angel:

Yes, Sailub and Pon have roles in "Crow Club", but it seems to be ensemble cast (two of many), so they're clearly not getting the same priority as Pavel and Pooh.

As to Supanut, Ping, Garfield and Benz, there's talk that at least some of them are just waiting out their contracts before they leave Change2561.

i might be one of the few who have dark mode on and i had to highlight to read lol. but no worries, i also do that in the photos of the day with saygo lol. cant complain, i'm the one being weird with the love for dark mode =D


i think it was tina who was complaining abt cherry blossoms after winter and i just finished it. i loved it! i'm thinking it might even fall on mhy 11/10 list. will also start reading the manhwa as i can't get enough of it =D i also hope ok jin uk will lead more series, be it bl or not. his role in cherry blossoms and his bully role in teach you a lesson is night and day and i love it!

I watched it long long ago but I remember that I also loved it. Of course, we all have different tastes and preferences, which is fine. I often like relationship-focused stories that others might find slow.

I need to rewatch this because for the life of me I can't remember but I rated it a 7.5 so I liked it.

If you want to know if it's a happy or sad ending without details I can tell you.

RE: Lost to You

Yes, please and thank you!

It's happy but open. But I'm too late ๐Ÿ˜†

I'm also using dark mode ๐Ÿ˜

I enjoyed Cherry Blossoms After Winter even if it has flaws I even rewatched it. But I didn't rated it high 7.5 which is for me something to pass time so I was a bit harsh, I should rewatch it again to see if I want to upgrade my rating.

I think Pavel and Pooh are really popular, so maybe they see it as less risky to focus on them and continue investing in a pairing that's already proven to be successful. But I also think they should invest in their other artists. PoohPavel probably bring in enough money to support both themselves and the rest of the company.


My binge-watch of the day is The Lie We Lived In !

Oh man, I finished this one just now. Was able to watch the last two episodes without speeding them up. I gave it an 8 out of 10 eventually. Cherry Blossoms After Winter, signing off as watcher.

It's on my fav BL list!

So is Secret Crush on You, lol.

The Lie We Lived In : It was a really nice watch. Sometimes I already have a rating in mind as I watch a drama episode by episode. For the first half, it was sitting at an 8/10. The fact that I kept writing down Korean vocabulary while watching meant I wasn't invested enough to stop what I was doing.

But the second half completely changed that. I really enjoyed it and ended up putting everything else aside to focus on the drama. Even though the episodes were short, I never felt like the story was rushed.

8.5/10

It's really rare for me to rate a drama this highly without crying, but it was well made.

jazme:

I will probably rewatch it tomorrow since it's more easy to write down Korean vocabulary while watching a Korean BL than a Thai one.

jazme:

Same rating !


Today is Peach and Me day !!!

๐Ÿ˜† No worries! I'm prob not going to watch it.

Tina:

That's not bad!


Some of my early BLs, like Cherry Blossoms, Mr. Heart and others were rated fairly high. Not sure how they stand the test of time if I were to rewatch though. I finished Mr. Heart just now and rated the series an 8 instead of the 9 I have for the movie. I think it's natural as time goes on to get a little picky after watching a thousand titles, lol.

dark mode lover too ๐Ÿ™‹๐Ÿปโ€โ™‚๏ธevery app i use is in black ,if there is a dark theme option i change it i find it relaxing for my eyes

interesting fact: many mdl users use black mode, based on a game i posted before๐Ÿ•บ๐Ÿป

LueurArcane:

Hmm. I'm puzzled.

Normally it's not a problem: The posted text adjusts automatically, so that default (white screen) users like me see it in black, while dark mode users like you see it in white.

What did Angel do differently so that this didn't happen?
