Yesss! I would love to see N'Gun in an action genre again xD Have you ever seen him with a GUN in his hand? He…
Haha yes!! He has such amazing range as an actor and can go from sweet and innocent to edgey in the blink of an eye (and I love that he does so many BL roles). I think he would play a detective quite well ^^
Not sure if a date (yet) but Lazy Subber posted about this on Facebook today. They said the author said this will premier in theaters but isn’t sure if it will come to an online platform. Sorry—that didn’t really answer your question but maybe it’s interesting to know? Lol
I like your pick of Bright for the lead of Dao Ming Si. He's definitely got the look for the character and from…
Oh nice! I didn’t know they said that too! Yes I absolutely adore Mean and would love to see him return to the BL genre at some point. Maybe they’ll consider LGBT work instead of BL since it tends to be more complex (at least the Thai ones I’ve seen).
I’ve got The Stranded on my Netflix watch list so I should check it out soon haha

Ohh ok now I know what you mean! I do remember when they said they wanted to do other things and (I think) if they did BL again, they only wanted to be paired with their ship. I’m sure that was very frustrating and disheartening for them, especially when they meant exactly what you said about exploring more challenging and diverse roles (because BL is typically limited by its own stereotypes), which is totally valid and understandable!

Ahh I see! I’m not familiar with the article, but that is unfortunate that a misinterpretation led to some people attacking actors :( It is good to hear from all sides though, especially since I think my comment may have oversimplified things a bit too much haha

Totally agree. And there are certainly several BL actors who continue to do BL roles as other characters, which is great to see. I’ve also just heard that for many, it’s a stepping stone into their acting career because it gives them so much popularity, so that’s where o was coming from. It does seem to be changing though as BL gains more international popularity and new waves of actors are coming in. ^^
(Also, I didn’t mean to imply that the actors look down on the genre. I can only think of a few who could be categorized that way, so apologies if my comment came off as such.).
Just gotta say SOS is one of THE BEST Thai dramas I’ve seen to address mental health issues so accurately. It’s a great one and glad to see it included here! Also saw a few that peaked my interest. Thanks!
You’re welcome! I know infidelity storylines aren’t everyone’s cup of tea, and it’s not that I’m particularly…
Yay I’m glad you’re enjoying it! And yes, I’m watching The World of the Married too. I think it’s okay but for me it seems way too over dramatic. It doesn’t have that controlled suspense that a good thriller/revenge Kdrama has. There’s too much sensationalism and everything and it’s missing something.
Thank you for the objective review. I was conflicted and having a hard time deciding whether I should watch this…
You’re welcome! I know infidelity storylines aren’t everyone’s cup of tea, and it’s not that I’m particularly fond of them, but I think the writers and producers tries to give us something different and I hate that it got so much negative feedback because of the subject matter. I hope you enjoy it if you do end up watching it (but of course, no worries if you don’t haha)! ^^
They did. I saw somewhere that filming on this was postponed (I think until June or after June but I can’t remember…
Same! This was there one I was most interested in. But don’t worry—I think they will film it, they’ll just have to wait until after the coronavirus calms down. ^^
Watched almost all high-rated C-dramas but still haven’t watched The Untamed since I am not very fond of BL.…
I promise, it’s not super heavy on the BL. It’s very subtle, and can even be interpreted as deep friendship/comrades in arms if you prefer. I thought there was more romance in Guardian than this, and I loved both equally. Plus, there is so, so much more here than just BL. I don’t even call this a BL drama because that theme pales in comparison to the other themes running throughout the show. Overall, it’s wonderful, but it does have a confusing (and some have said slow) start, so I recommend giving it a good ten episodes if you aren’t convinced at first.
Yeahhh tbh the widespread RamKing adoration baffles me (no offense to anyone—I just don’t get the appeal.…
Hmmm I don't know, I still don't see it lol. To me, Ram's eyes are just blank pools. Sometimes he gives something, but for the most part I just see vapid stares. I don't dislike him or the couple at all, but I'm just really surprised at how much enthusiasm there is towards them. But that's the beauty of individual preference and taste haha.
I too enjoy all the couples and am never bored (thankfully!). I am a bit disappointed in MekBoss, though. I was really interested in their dynamic/backstory but it's not being developed the way I thought it would. Maybe because of the issues on set, the writers changed it as the story progressed (or maybe that's how it was going to be all along), but anyhoo. I am happy that each couple has their own story line and progression different from each other!
