Boys’ Love as a genre is expanding and undertaking several tropes. But there are still very few storylines each year, that lucidly explore the themes of maturity. Today’s feature includes such far-fetched shows that made a mark with their thought-provoking stories!

BL Week in Review
This week was crazy with a capital C. I started my yearly countdown, and let me tell you, it has been a bit intense on the social media front. The two hashtags are #BLFavs2025 and #BL2025Wrapped. Both are super fun, and I’m so glad I can contribute something to the community. That being said, this article is shorter than usual.

Christmas came early for me last week with the reveal of the 2026 and beyond lineup for GMMTV. They gave us thirty queer stories. Twenty-two were BL, eight were GL, and one was a stage musical. Having that many series revealed also came with a certain amount of controversy.

My favorite Thai company, GMMTV, announced two highly anticipated series that are going to premiere soon. “Burnout Syndrome” and “Melody of Secrets” have been on my must-watch list since I saw their mock trailers at previous lineup events, and I’m so curious to see how they play out. “Burnout Syndrome” starts on Wednesday, and “Melody of Secrets” begins on December 5. I have a good feeling about these two.

This week, I had to make some hard decisions. There are so many fun things airing on Fridays and Saturdays, but I’ve vowed that until my novel is done, I can only watch two series per day. Hard decisions were made. I am putting Goddess Bless You From Death and Interminable Thailand briefly on hold while That Summer and The Wicked Game finish. I decided not to watch the three toxic series that began on Saturday. They included: To My Shore, Tide of Love, and Gu Jin Nan Qiu.

This week, there were two lineup events. One was from WeTV Thailand, and one was from IQIYI Thailand.
One series I’m excited for is “Be My Player Two”. This was one of WeTV’s announcements. It is from studio Wabi Sabi and has Maxky Ratchata and Bas Hatsanet, who last played together in “Fourever You”. It is apparently a prequel to “A Boss and a Babe”. I like the esports theme, and the preview felt fresh. It’ll be fun.

Halloween was last week, and the Thai BL actors were out in full force, sharing their photo shoots. I was excited to see both KristSingto and EarthMix doing a full set. EarthMix costumes were very memorable. Look to Instagram, TikTok, and X for all the fun pictures of your favorites.
BL Week in Review
This week, so many series began and ended that it almost gave me whiplash. Still, there were some highlights.
“Chosen Home” is a queer drama from Japan that made me smile through the entire episode. I wouldn’t call it BL. Still, it had a strong found-family element that I adored.
BL Week in Review
Of the thirty-four currently airing BL dramas, I am only watching thirteen. Even so, it feels like a lot to watch. Perhaps it’s because the buzz on social media keeps increasing. More and more people have something to say about these series, which is amazing but also time-consuming.

The big news on the street this week in Thai BL was the drop of the teaser for “Knot”, which is the new project from MFlow Entertainment. It is an omegaverse series that will star Boat and Oat, who recently did “My Stubborn”. Honestly, I think they are perfectly suited for the kind of tension needed for an omegaverse, and I’m excited to see what they do with it.
