Just plain weird. Honestly, there are not many instances that give me the ‘willies’, but watching this series frankly did. Everything about this story left me disquiet. And the way the narrative was fashioned felt like what the two protagonists were somehow involved in, between the two of them, was ‘dirty’. Therefore, the whole drama felt – unclean. Sadly, it did not need to go down that road.

Top 5 BL Dramas to Watch in 2025 (So Far)
We are halfway through 2025 and the stunning display of sensual yet high quality narratives has left most audiences satisfied. It could be attributed to the definitive pacing & better script writing skills which coupled with good acting talents have elevated the entire experience. The sudden downpour of shows is indeed questionable. Are they worth your time? Are we finally stepping out of the repetitive patterns? Is BL offering more than subpar content? Let’s figure out the answers to these questions with a quick glance at some of my favorites from this year!

“My Stubborn” Series Review (Ep.3 to 12)
Adapted from the novel “Nai Hia Bok Mai Chop Dek” (ไหนเฮียบอกไม่ชอบเด็ก) by MissPa_Ob (นางสาวผอบ), “My Stubborn” had a clear directive & motion. It was NOT to repeat M Flow Entertainment’s past mistakes. Most shows from the said agency have poor production value & highly enthusiastic sex scenes. But sex can only sell so far; doesn’t mean “My Stubborn” doesn’t delve on it. Almost 80% of the narrative includes unhindered & unapologetic sex scenes between the main leads. I’m yet to find an episode where they weren’t kissing or having a full-blown sex session. Sex plays an important role in most M Flow Entertainment’s dramas. And yet, “My Stubborn” was far better than the precedents set by the company with their prior productions. The high ratings could very well be attributed to the high class chemistry between the main leads, Boat Yongyut & Oat Pasakorn.

BL Week in Review
This is a special week. I am including two extra days of reviews because on Tuesday, July 8, I am flying to New York to spend ten days. While I’m there, I will be attending “The Heart Killers” Fan Meeting and “Timeless Thai Taste” 2025. I will be doing a special article when I come back about those events, since I will not have watched many (if any) BL series while I’m there.

Top 5 BL Dramas to Watch in 2025 (So Far)
Let’s be honest, trying to narrow down a list of favorite BL dramas for 2025 (thus far) is tough. Every series that’s aired (or is still airing) brings something different to the table and has an audience that enjoys what it’s offering. And with so many exciting dramas still to come this year, calling anything a definitive “best” feels a bit premature.
