An actor’s caliber rests on his ability to command the audience’s attention. 2025 saw a sudden rise in BL dramas and as such, the focus has shifted to intelligent storytelling and smart casting. Gone are the days, when popular actors could drive the ratings for a show. These days, audiences focus more on quality than quantity. If the show is mediocre, not even the most popular actor’s inclusion could save it!

Happy New Year, everyone, and with the new year, big changes are afoot. Next week will be my last article and live for The BL Xpress. It’s been a joy writing for them this year, and I wish them well in all their future endeavors.
While BL as a genre evolves, so do the consistent pairings. Fan service remains an inevitable choice, there are multiple fandoms with their own favorites (even I belong to one such fandom). As such, we have our personal biases, and they form reckoning forces, through their acting talents and charming chemistry. For this feature, let me describe what chemistry means to them!

It has been excruciating year, in terms of BL production. The Asian subcontinent is churning shows & movies at a speed that is incomprehensible. It could be attributed to the fact that Thailand as the largest producer of queer content has found the liberty to legalize same-sex marriage. It was difficult to choose a select few for this list; I had to let go of quite a few shows to compile this feature. But here we are, so enjoy the feast!

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.
In a genre littered with stereotypical stories that have either school settings or are programmed into engineering colleges, storylines with horror or supernatural elements are just a few. You can name them on your fingers and even that doesn’t include those with commendable performances. Scripting a horror thriller or supernatural suspense requires twice the effort & initiative than the norm. Here’s our script of recent releases that left a deep impression on our psyche!

Adding another to the list of horror BLs.
The name of this show sounds scary enough. ‘Goddess Bless You From Death’. It shows there will be black magic, death, blood and hopefully, gore. And it’s releasing on 31st October. Perfect!

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.
