GL News from Mainland China (Sept-Nov. 12th)

Uncensored Chinese GL The Secret of Girls, previously streamed on WeChat, is now on GagaOOala.

Microdrama Be Her Resilience reportedly reads very well as either a sismance or a censored GL. Beware of triggers though: unserious treatment of sexual assault, implied rape.

Microdrama Two Empresses Dowager Reborn (两宫太后重生了,更改诏书换皇帝) appears to be a censored GL. It can be watched in full with machine translated subs here.

Douqi subs are up for Love in the Time of Artificial Intelligence and The Butch/Femme Equation. Don't forget to give some love to the original creators by watching the videos on Bilibili as well!  

GL News from Taiwan and Hong Kong (Aug. 30th-Nov. 12th)

After months of silence, Hong Kong film Red Kiss was confirmed to still be on the film festival circuit - making its international premiere 21st Osaka Asian Film Festival on August 30th. [Source].

At the Busan International Film Festival in September, Taiwan-Hong Kong-Macau-Thailand co-produced film Girlfriends and Hong Kong-Cambodia-India co-production Whisperings of the Moon were shown, confirming they are still on the film festival circuit as well, and garnering quite a bit more buzz as a result.

Also in September, 2 Taiwanese BLs ended their run. The notable aspect (to this club, mind you) is that both featured a GL second couple. The dramas? Secret Lover and The Promise of the Soul.

Taiwanese Movie: "The Substitute"

GL News from the Philippines (Aug. 17th - Nov. 12th)

Filipino GL studio GNDA Productions (of Project: Coffee) renamed/deleted their accounts, deleted social media posts, and privated Project: Coffee episodes on YouTube. This is seemingly for a rebrand that might be tied to the GL film A Quiet Bloom which was announced for 2026 on August 17th, 2025. However, these posts have also went missing as the production-specific socials have also been privated and renamed.

The film Open Endings has entered the film festival circuit as of October 3rd. They started out with Cinemalaya where it received an award for Best Ensemble Performance. Since then it has been at a few local screenings. And it will be at QCinema International Film Festival Main Competition (Asian Next Wave) which takes place Nov. 14-23rd.

yall... have yall seen the Anticipated GL poll? Theres like 71 titles on there. And Im pretty sure some are still missing. O.O

What a time to be alive, that's for sure.

Anyways, make sure to place and/or re-order your votes ;)

Some webdramas

"Xiao Xiang Yi Jiu" Can be watched here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hj0lnl73GYU
"When We Met" Can be watched here:  https://youtu.be/1dhP50krPzU
"The Secret of Girls" Can be watched here:  https://youtu.be/ffqzlMsToRE and https://youtu.be/NlBctmUR_vg (I'm unsure if this channel is official or just a fan channel)

The secret of girls youtube link is unofficial. After censorship took their stuff down, pretty sure gagaoolala is the only remaining official source

I love it when they release videos and photos from the recordings! Look at the moms taking care of the twins!  ❤✨😍
