I don't think there's a BL fan who can say that Gawin hasn't done a good job so far, has had good chemistry with his co-stars, has shown his versatility... But many times his talent has been left unexploited by having him as a supporting actor (one reason for this could be the fact that he doesn't have a partner), as in 'Perfect 10 Lines', in which, in fact, he only acted on a few occasions in its first 8 episodes, I repeat, wasting his talent.
I classify it as "experiments" (note that I always put it in quotation marks, with all that this entails) because they were "marrying" him with several partners, and evidently it didn't work with any of them. His case has been different from that of many others, such as Force and Boss, Fourth and Gemini, Earth and Mix, Tul and Max, just to name a few examples, in which the couples did work and that's why they were established for several series. And in these and other “successful” examples, the industry has cared little about how the fan base feels… because its coffers are full of profits and benefits.

Yes, this is another one to look forward to. Only Friends: Dream On will be a series with a luxury cast.
The vampire theme is not very to my liking, but I can't resist watching a series with these two.

How I would like Fluke to finally have his BL partner, after having been the victim of several "experiments" by GMMTV to "marry him."
How I would like Joss Way-ar Sangngern to be that partner for him and give us several good BL dramas.
Success to both of you.

You ask if Chinese and Taiwanese speak the same language or just sound similar. We are talking about the same country. Both speak the same language: Mandarin Chinese. In fact, the official language of Taiwan is Mandarin Chinese. Also locally you can hear a part of the population speaking Taiwanese, a Chinese dialect spoken in southern Fujian and by many in the Chinese diaspora, as a large part of the population comes from the Chinese province of Fujian. A small part of the Hakka people and the aborigines still preserve their native languages. For example, the Hakka use Hakka or Kejia (Chinese: 客家话; pinyin: ''kè jiā huà; Pha̍k-fa-sṳ: Hak-kâ-va / Hak-kâ-fa), one of the main languages ​​of the Sinitic languages ​​spoken mainly in southern China by the Hakka people.
There is a complicated issue that divides the international community, and it is the existence of the “one China” principle that recognizes Taiwan as an inalienable part of Chinese territory. That is, Taiwan cannot be considered a country, but rather a Chinese province. This principle, recognized by resolution 2758 of the United Nations General Assembly, and with the position of the overwhelming majority of the international community that officially recognizes the People's Republic of China as the sole and legitimate representative of all the Chinese people. That is, Taiwan is an inalienable part of Chinese territory.
This resolution was approved on October 25, 1971, during the 26th session of the UN General Assembly, and after the recognition of China as the only legitimate representative before the United Nations, Chiang Kai-shek's representatives were expelled from the position they illegally occupied in the United Nations.
In this way, the UN recognizes that there is only one China in the world, and that the Government of the People's Republic of China is the only legitimate Government representing all of China and Taiwan. This recognition is a widely recognized norm of international relations and a universal consensus of the international community, because on the basis of the one-China principle, 183 countries have established and developed diplomatic relations with China.
In this sense, China is making efforts to achieve national reunification in the face of attempts by secessionist forces and external actors (especially the US government and some Europeans) to take advantage of this issue to lacerate the territorial integrity and sovereignty of the People's Republic of China, intervene in its internal affairs and undermine regional and international peace and security.

Hello. Yes, I think you should first visualize the beginning of the relationship between Maki and Haruta, told in the first season, 'Ossan's Love: Ossan zu Rabu', from 2018, and in the film 'Gekijoban Ossan zu Rabu Love or Dead', from 2019.
However, to understand the series, I don't think you have to watch the series 'Ossan's Love: In The Sky (Ossanzu Rabu: In The Sky), from 2019, or 'Ossan's Love HK', it is considered the first BL drama from Hong Kong. But if you want to have fun, don't miss it. They are very attractive, digestible audiovisuals. You will surely enjoy seeing this entire universe, which is now taken up by ThaiBL.

The truth with the already close Oscars is that Donald Trump, busy with issues that many mydramalist users are not at all interested in (while manipulating the Chinese reality), such as eliminating with a stroke of the pen the DEI programs "diversity, equity, inclusion", deeply rooted in the United States, considering them to be "discriminatory" policies, the current North American government involved in wars, threats to other countries, reinforcement of economic, commercial and financial blockades that cause so much damage to people, deportations and tariff increases, I fear that he will not have time to disqualify, if he wins, Emilia Pérez, a film that has received almost hysterical rejection from haters, either because some object to the fact that it was directed by a Frenchman and his nationality makes him unable to talk about Mexico, because the cast is mostly foreign, or because, in addition, they consider that it trivializes and manipulates the theme of violence, without realizing that it is a consciously implausible plot and crazy. The rejection of the questioning crowd has gone so far that some specialists in France claim that it would have been much better to send as the French representative to the Oscar the stunning but conventional The Count of Monte Cristo, promoted by the national academy with 14 nominations for the César award, the French equivalent of the Oscars.
There are very few days left to know who ultimately wins the statuette, and then those excluded will be fodder for pre-Oscar anecdotes, and most of the scandals and controversies will quickly fall into oblivion, and we will only be left with the films, better or worse, with their greatness and smallness; Although I must confess that I am waiting for the moment when Trump has to give his opinion about Emilia Pérez and his displeasure pushes him to the usual display of chauvinism, misogyny, censorship and homophobia. That good movies also have use value to bring out all our demons.

Speaking of censorship: The British film 'Conclave' has eight nominations for the Oscars in its 97th edition, to be awarded on March 10. However, its director, the German Edward Berger, has been excluded from the Best Director category, perhaps because in 2022 he was widely recognized, including at the Oscar for that anti-war manifesto called 'All Quiet on the Western Front' ('Im Westen nichts Neues', its title in German).
As for the actors: there are three candidates with greater possibilities: Adrian Brody for 'The Brutalist'; the overrated Timothée Chalamet for 'A Complete Stranger', the biography of Bob Dylan, and if one of the two wins, the always extraordinary Ralph Fiennes for 'Conclave' will be in the field once again. Has the time come for the British actor, after his performances in 'Schindler's List' and 'The English Patient' have been scorned?
And in this section, I mean, that of the actors, there are other exclusions: the most notable is that of also British Daniel Craig for 'Queer', by the Italian Luca Guadagnino. This film has been completely excluded from the Oscar but won an award at the Venice Festival. It is set in post-war Mexico where the actor who plays Agent 007 plays a writer, a drug addict, in love with an elusive young man. Cause of exclusion: It is stated behind the scenes that the sex scenes and surreal moments were too “strong” for the Academy.
The entire universe has its eyes set on the controversial 'Emilia Pérez', a musical written and directed by Jacques Audiard, filmed in France and set in Mexico, with the story of a transsexual trafficker and his predestination to violence and disintegration. The French film competes in no less than 13 categories, a triumph that makes it not only the most nominated of the year, but also the non-English speaking production with the most nominations in the history of the Oscar, as it surpassed the Chinese 'Tiger and Dragon', by Ang Lee, in 2000, and the Mexican 'Roma', by Alfonso Cuarón, in 2018 (both held the previous record of ten mentions each).
Emilia Pérez has been involved in endless controversies about the issues of representation of Mexican reality (which some consider frivolous and even offensive) and about the character of a drug trafficker who transitions into a woman. Social networks are filled with the excesses of the excellent Spanish trans actress Karla Sofía Gascón, who in her search, perhaps understandable but unbridled, for visibility and notoriety, has provoked the anger and insane hatred of a legion of homophobes, sexists and chauvinists interested in taking advantage of the slightest opportunity, including nominations for any award, to verify the lynching not only of the trans actress, but, by extension, of this daring and singular film that reconciles the undeniable trivialities of a multicultural musical with the codes of a thriller marked by predestination to darkness.

Hanna's behavior is strange, since everything indicates that she knows the mother-son relationship, and yet she takes the mother's side. The mother, who has never cared about Sangmin, even traveled to take him home. There are many dark elements in the series.

Thank you for your comment, it led me to update the series. There are some items at the end of the original review already updated. If you want you can read them.

How many points would you give it? Is it well executed, interpreted? Do you have a good script? What stands out do you find in the series? In fact, I initially gave it an 8, until this Sunday's episode, which ended up disappointing me.

Firstkhao has been “sold” to us as a seme or versatile, the first, and Khao as an uke.
We talk about stereotypes, but the first ones in charge of “selling” these stereotypes to us are the producers of the series, with the image of the stereotypical seme and uke, one muscular, sporty, party-goer, athletic, generally introverted, the other the artist (a often a painter), the one who plays the role of “cheerleader” in Western films and series cheering on athletes. They show him to us as the scholar, the studious...
The trailer for “My Sweetheart Jom” itself is full of clichés and stereotypes, with Yothim and his parents going around the village looking for the “village chief.” They only ask older, virile adults with beards, clothes and faces that denote seriousness: “Are you the head of the village?”, and then they are amazed when the character played by Saint, who from his Pete in “Love by Chance” has been “sold” to us as uke, and Poom Nuttapart Tuntistinchai, who since The Sign (I have not seen him in any other previous role) has also “sold” us his image as uke, all based on of safe money for the pockets of the producers and business owners who have taken over the Thai BL entertainment industry, to modify discourses of the LGBT+ community and empty content, in many cases, of the struggle of these people for their rights. I am not saying this is the case since the series has not yet been released, but everything points in this direction.

The American journalist Tucker Carlson assured that the Administration of former President Joe Biden, in particular former Secretary of State Antony Blinken, tried to assassinate Russian President Vladimir Putin, and neither Biden nor Blinken have denied the statements. For this reason, Russia has requested a thorough investigation by international organizations.
It is significant how the preparation of an assassination attempt against the leader of a nation, whoever it may be, or the mere discussion about how to carry out the crime or about the supposed benefits of eliminating a person, which automatically becomes a crime , in addition to representing the most serious threat to world security as it becomes a direct path to the start of a nuclear war, has not been a subject of concern and occupation by the supposed “democratic” organizations and countries of the West, the UN or the United States itself. United States Congress.

In the “land of the free and home of the braveliberties,” Trump last Monday annulled with an order titled 'Prioritize excellence and military readiness' the 2021 decree of then-President Joe Biden, which allowed trans people to enlist and serve openly according to their gender identity. gender. Trump's new policy states that a false 'gender identity' that differs from a person's sex cannot meet the rigorous standards necessary for military service."
The executive order further requires the Department of Defense to update its medical standards within 60 days to "end the use of invented and identification-based pronouns," and highlights that the "pursuit of military excellence cannot be diluted to accommodate political agendas or other ideologies detrimental to the cohesion of the unit."
And organizations that defend LGBT* rights immediately respond, filing a federal lawsuit the next day to challenge Trump's executive order, which prohibits transgender people from serving and enlisting in the Military.
GLBTQ Legal Advocates & Defenders (GLAD Law) and the National Center for Lesbian Rights filed a lawsuit on behalf of six active-duty transgender military personnel and two trans people seeking to enlist.
The plaintiffs challenge the constitutionality of the executive order, arguing that it "violates the Equal Protection component of the Fifth Amendment." Additionally, they ask the court to overturn the ban and issue a "preliminary and permanent injunction prohibiting the categorical exclusion of transgender people from military service."
"Rather than being based on any legitimate government purpose, the ban reflects animosity toward transgender people because of their status," the document reads.

Tik Tok's virtual "refugees" have discovered that China is not the terrible place they had been sold; Meanwhile, many Chinese who still idealized Western life have discovered that they live much better than Western citizens.
How did this happen?
Last Monday morning in China, millions of users of Xiaohongshu (XHS), translated as "little red book", an application that has starred in one of the most important Western cultural exchanges of modern times, woke up to the surprise of that their usual social network had been filled with new American users who called themselves "TikTok refugees."
In response to the almost inevitable censorship, millions of "tiktokers" began to look for alternatives to migrate as a sign of protest, and chose as an ideal candidate another Chinese social network that many thought was the "Chinese TikTok."
The logic used by the "Tik Tok refugees" was that if the US government took away their social network due to a supposed security threat, they would move to another, even more Chinese network. Unlike TikTok, XHS is based in the Chinese city of Shanghai, and is not designed specifically for a foreign audience. The app competes with “Chinese TikTok,” whose name is Douyin, and is available in Western app stores.
Until last week, XHS was a Chinese social network with 300 million users that had not shown any interest in internationalization. It doesn't even have a translator yet. If we make a parallel with Western networks, it is a mix of Pinterest, TikTok, Instagram, Reddit and Alibaba.
The Americans' discoveries were shared by them on Western social networks, and many have gone viral, reaching millions of people. This has amplified the reach of XHS content and encouraged more and more people to try it.
As a result, XHS became the most downloaded app in 87 countries and is probably growing. Given the commotion, many in China who did not use it have also started to do so.

The attacks against the teaching of the history of racism in the United States continue with possible fines for educational centers, uncertainty among teachers, approval of laws that restrict teaching on topics related to history and race relations.
The CRT argues that racism in the United States goes beyond personal prejudices as it is incorporated into laws and institutions. It is a way of seeing the world that Americans have inherited after a legacy of segregation, slavery, manifest destiny, genocide. Essentially, it links contemporary issues around racial inequality to the laws and policies that produced those same inequalities in the past.

"Long May it continue til Americans get the determination to fight for a more humane existence". OK.

In addition to diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) services and program offices, the fascists in power in the United States liquidate the progressivism of the military, and everything related to CRT, feminism and what they call climate hysteria, genderism, securitism…
Trump's agenda includes cutting federal funding for schools that promote "gender radicalism" or critical race theory, and banning transgender women from competing in women's sports. It is still unknown what he will do with abortion, a right that was restricted in several states after the repeal of Roe versus Wade.

Thank you for your words. Equally memorable is another 2024 Thai film: Lahn mah (How to Make Millions Before Grandma Dies), directed by Pat Boonnitipat and starring Putthipong Assaratanakul, one of the protagonists of I Told Sunset About You.

I agree with your words about the new directions of BL and the control of the message exercised by the corporate capital that has taken over the Thai entertainment industry. On the other hand, the measures taken by Trump in the United States against diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) initiatives are harsh. Federal agencies comply with Trump's executive order and remove resources for underrepresented Americans from their websites, cancel training and service contracts, dismantle diversity programs across the federal government. Trump has called for all DEI staff to be placed on paid leave and eventually fired. It is incredible to see that documents on DEI have been removed from the websites of federal agencies, such as the Office of Personnel Management, the Department of State and the Department of Homeland Security, and web addresses that once led to DEI pages now display “Error 404 — Page not found” messages or notes on archived material explaining the change.

I didn't like I Promised You the Moon. However, I did like I Told Sunset about You and The Paradise of Thorns. It switches to a black comedy in the second half of the film, as the rivalry between Thonkarm and Mo increases. What I liked was exploring how not recognizing the right to equal marriage affects the LGBT+ community.
I wrote a review. If you can read it and give me your opinion.
