I went into My Sweetheart Jom expecting a light, slightly chaotic romantic comedy with a countryside twist. What I found instead was a slow burn gem with a gentle heartbeat, one that’s surprisingly grounded, deeply charming, and quietly thoughtful in how it builds character and community.

This is it! This is the time for the verdict.
I’ve been waiting for “My Golden Blood” since it was announced in 2023. The pilot trailer was chef’s kiss, and as a die-hard vampire lore enthusiast, I was buzzing. Now that I’ve devoured all twelve episodes (more than once, mind you), here’s my final, fang-filled verdict.

The level of spice this week was off the charts. The number of shows I had to pause and truly consider how to write my reaction was almost comical. Stand-out episodes include The Next Prince, The Bangkok Boy, and I Promise I Will Comeback. So, go forth and enjoy all of the fun scenes these actors gave us this week. 😘
We had a hard time trying to cope with the overload of excessive updates in the BL/GL world last week. There is steady stream of exclusives making its way to the upfront. We aren’t surprised because the BL phenomenon is taking over the world. Let’s check the latest buzz on the circuit!
June is the month of Pride, people flocking the streets, expressing their love and support for the LGBTQ community. So, how could the BL world be left behind? We have some flavorful romances in stock that are literally riveting audiences. Since we are in BL heaven, I’m desperate to share my current favorites.
I love me a good go-back-in-time-to fix-your-mistake BL!!
Amongst my chaotic week between “Pit Babe Season 2” and “The Next Prince” came another BL into my life. Honestly I had seen the pilot and kept it in my ‘binge watch when the entire show is finished’ list but seeing all the clips of it all over the internet thought maybe starting it now wouldn’t be a bad idea either.

The title of this movie is aptly named. Aichaku literally means in Japanese ‘attachment’. But an attachment to an object that is more like a feeling of affinity- what the object means. It takes on an emotional attachment. And this movie is certainly that. It is a movie filled with a lot of emotional bonds.
It doesn’t always take much to find yourself drawn to another person, especially when the one seeing you sees past the persona the rest of the world assumes is all there is.

I had hoped to enjoy this series. I really did. But the plain truth is, it is awful. It had so much going for it but it ended up being a semi-hot mess. It had its moments to be sure but there were not enough of them to save it from itself. Too bad because the subject matter was one that was unique and interesting. It was about the world of male pageantry. If it had only focused on that, this could have been a really great series. Instead, it went into the sensationalism and sleaziness of the industry. While I do not doubt that some of that does exist, the world of male pageantry would have been quite entertaining in and of itself to see. The world around the pageant became secondary to individual stories of some of the contestants, which for the most part was either dull and boring or titillating. The plots to these sub-stories were insipid and vapid and/or the surrounding characters became caricatures rather than examples of real people.
