My Favorite Asian BLs So Far (2024)- Part II
Admittedly, my second-tier favorite Asian BLs for this year (so far) is as equally eclectic as my first list was and is again not of a ‘mainstream’ conformity. It bears repeating that I am an individual who does not follow any set of established social norms in what I find to be favorites.

“Fourever You” First Impressions (Ep.1 to 6)
Easter (Earth Katsamonnat) intentionally attends a university in the north of Thailand. He hopes to find a new place to erase the memories of his relationship with his ex, which didn’t end clearly. But he doesn’t think that he would meet with Hill (Pond Ponlawit), his ex again at this university. And it is the beginning of a relationship that will not end in the same way ever. At the same time, his roommate, North (Bas Hatsanat), also faces chaos because he was drunk and caused a quarrel, then woke up with the debt. But it could be more chaotic because the god just sent him a flirtatious and very spoiled creditor, Johan (Maxky Ratchata). The stories of these roommates will be followed by their friends from the Art club, Typhoon (Tonliew Methaphat) and Daotok (Oat Tharathon) with the senior medical students Tonfah (Bever Patsapon) and Arthit (Ngern Anupart). Their friendship in this university and love stories will be memorable notes for a long time.

Heart Fluttering Bromances That Aired in 2024
Bromances probably came into existence and became popular because of China’s rigid censorship on queer representation. Even though their popularity stems from heart fluttering moments that spur imaginary romance between the fictional characters, Bromances are fast becoming a stable part of the BL genre!

“Club Friday Season 16: Domestic Incident” Series Review (Ep.1 to 4)
I was thunderstruck by the theme of this series. It is a story in an anthology labeled “Club Friday”. Its content is one I have never seen before and certainly involves a very controversial topic. If they had been more adult about its fruition and handled it like a ruminative production, this would and could have been up there as the Best BL for 2024.

“Bad Guy My Boss” First Impressions (Ep.1 to 3)
“Bad Guy My Boss” is your run-of-the-mill office BL romance between a pouty boss and a hardworking, eager-to-please assistant. Despite the questionable acting and over the top airbrushing, the story is interesting enough to keep one tuned in. The time-tested appeal of office romance seems to always hold up for me, because the formula is quite straightforward, and “Bad Guy My Boss” does not shy away from following that formula, therefore giving us a good enough story that is easy to follow along with and interesting enough that you will not be bored, regardless of how overdone the trope may seem. After all, there is a reason why it became popular to begin with.
