Midweek Updates

The Origins of BL
Thai Boys’ Love TV series have achieved global success over the past few years, with pioneers such as 2gether, a romance between two male students that was broadcast with English subtitles on the official YouTube channel, reaching the top of worldwide trends on X (formerly known as Twitter), especially due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

“Two Worlds” Series Review (Ep.1 to 10)
Frankly, it is irrelevant how many worlds this series had; even a half a dozen more would not have helped. It is just awful. I am sorry to say that as I so wanted to like this drama. However, this is again going to be one of those series that if you are a fan of the two leads (which I really am), you will perhaps enjoy this series.
