Favorite Japanese BL Dramas- Part II
Japanese BLs are swiftly becoming fan favorites because of their nuanced storytelling and phenomenal casting. Last year, we saw some excellent collaborative work which has raised the standards for BL content.

“Bus Stop” Movie Review
Perhaps merely a coincidence, but this short paragon of a production is the same name as a 1956 film starring the iconic Marilyn Monroe. (If you are unaware of who she is, Google her- I remember her vividly). While not necessarily the same plot, its underlying message is exactly the same. RESPECT. And respect is what gives this strikingly beautiful parable its own sense of worth and beauty.
“Coffee Shop” Series Review (Ep.1 to 8)
This short series revolves around the coffee barista Boy (Boy Nattapon) from Ghost Host, Ghost House, who will tell your future from the cup you choose. We also get to meet Boy’s ex Tod (Tod Techit) from Ghost Host, Ghost House, and Love Area 2. Each story is unique and very sweet. The camera frequently zooms in on the glass that is chosen, then Boy touches the glass, the resonating smile on his face is an indication that he has seen the future prospects of the person concerned. Boy then explains what he sees and you get to watch if it is true or not.

“Hit Bite Love” Series Review (Ep.3 to 6)
The first season of “Hit Bite Love The Series” seemed like a surprisingly fresh BL series. With the lack of the now aged format of Engineering and Medical students in favor of using High School teenagers, the show seemed to have an innovative edge. It was an interesting experience, to say the least. I myself found myself enraptured with the characters.
BoatNut: A New History Waiting to be Rewritten
There is a lot of speculation surrounding the upcoming adaptation- Hot Bamee and Yummy Gyoyung, the latest kid on the block. A gourmet romance with spicy flavors, the show is touted as the next big deal after author Jamie’s previous adaptation “My Secret Love The Series” was met with positive response and applause. As such, the excitement surrounding the lead couple is understandable, and fans are dying to catch a glimpse of their chemistry.
