u know what, even the Malaysian version of Mr. Hiragii's homeroom could be watch internationally with eng sub i believe (i don't use subtitle since Indonesian is my native language) while this Thai platform TrueID really acts like how Japan region-lock their contents while being khia platform but having some of the goat-est shows that mainstream thai contents dont have. whattapain
it's actually my opinion based on my own experience, i don't think "High School Love" could reunite in Adulthood in real life, that's why i call it Propaganda. I do know that Propaganda is meant to give wrong thoughts though.. ✌
if you're in Indonesia, currently this is on the cinemas, specifically at CGV. but CGV is a korean-based company and it's a worldwide brand so kindly check your local CGV
sometimes i wonder, what if i dont get a lover by the time i reach middle-aged and will anybody fancy me? this is pretty much basically okumi's back story
People in the comments deadass calling a Taiwanese drama a Chinese drama is killing me-Also, holy switch up in…
i feel like Taiwanese BLs quality has dropped unlike the prime era 2017-2019 and 2021 (2020 is the exception). sure every year there are a lot of new Taiwanese BL being released (so that we won't feel dry unlike during the 2024 Japanese BL era) but those whose has decent quality only a few of them. For this year, personally i think Wishing Upon Shooting Stars still hold the title as the best produced 2026 Taiwanese BLs.
got me rewatching this series after the disappointing ending of the season 3 branch. at least the season 1 only focus on 1 couple and developed the story with better paced and writing compare to the season 3. the side couple chemistry of the season 3 carried the show tho
i feel like im in an enemy's territory for liking this series. this was soo beautiful. it's light and i did not feel burdened while watching, unlike Battle of the Writers.
Wait I'm curious, what is happening between this drama and tokyo in april?
im just sharing my thought on the similar key/core of the story of both shows that would eventually shaped how the characters developed their love. In 'Tokyo in April is...' , even though both main leads in the story were wrong for having sex without protection (which i believe that led to Kazuma went sick, he got pneumonia), Kazuma's mom is weird af for banning Ren upon existing in Kazuma's life. at first i thought she was just typical asian mom homophobic and holds a very strong "traditional family values" they say. but when Kazuma and Ren met again in their adulthood, Kazuma's mom revealed that she wasn't opposing their love, she was opposing they were having sex when they were still underage (final year at middle school). however, that doesn't justify the rights of not allowing Ren meeting Kazuma again upon the incident back in middle school.
the same thing goes for this movie, [Love Song]. the reason Kai kept running away from Shouta is because he was afraid to confess his love to shouta which the root cause is Shouta's mom herself. sorry for spoiler, in one of the scene in the movie, Shouta's mom blatantly said "could you avoid Shouta for now? because Shouta is our one and only son". she directly implying that their son cannot be gay, their son is their only hope of maintaining traditional family values. she could feel that Kai had a feeling for Shouta that's why she told Kai to stay away. that's why he was always afraid of telling Shouta of how he feels towards him.
other than that, the child actor who play Young Kai and Young Ren in both shows is the same. which roots back to my main thought.
now imagine if both moms in both shows do not oppose their son's sexuality, do not oppose their son's love to a boy. would that makes any difference? of course! they would have in love with zero hesitant and that would be beautiful :')
