Well, if it keeps at this rate, maybe more, I'm quite sure there will be lots of comments about the episode where…
The girlfriend rumour will remain a rumour until Gulf honestly confirms it.
And as for Mew and Hither, you really know what part of the series in that episode that best exemplifies their probable chemistry. I actually thought Tum was Tharn's ex when the latter stared at the former in that episode.
Despite my stance of the possibility of real-life couples in BL, I recently think that that it might be better for these actors to have different male partners in different series in BL. It's up to the viewers to choose which of the partners have real, believable chemistry. It's about acting work anyways.
This pattern is what we see in hetero couples in mainstream series. Why not also apply it in BL.
Honestly, this is a big risk for producers. Whether we like it or not, the BL industry capitalizes on the shippers' demand.
This is why i'm telling again and again people don't watch those fan service, it's will break your heart at the…
Thanks for the recommendation. But I'd like to know if they are Korean couple. I would really watch that. Hope you can send me the link.
Anyways, I have to be honest here. The biggest indirect competitors of BL industry are those gay couple YouTubers. These YouTubers get sponsorships for being real and they almost get the proceeds 100 per cent. I mean mostly. Meanwhile, these BL actors may have to get the talent fee but it depends on their market value. The proceeds of their sponsorships they will receive might be less after the cut from their agents and managers.
If you really follow Both and New Year, they already live a good life from their sponsorship. Both is a dentist though.
Okay, about New Year in BL, I think he has to be paired with an actor compatible for him. The last pair he had on I am Your King was not really fit for him ,IMHO. They don't have chemistry. Honestly, pairing New Year with a girl in a series won't really do good things for him as a gay vlogger. Both and New Year already have huge following. Their fans may not be able to adjust easily if New Year is paired with an actor in BL. Hopefully, they can act together.
Thank goodness some videos were taken off, there's still a bunch of accounts illegally re-uploading episodes on…
I am actually surprised about those unofficial YT channels. There is one channel that got more views than one clip on LineTV within 24 hours from the series' release last Monday.
Why the 1st one?!?!? I mean, Mew has lighter skin than Gulf(there's no much difference but yeah), Tharn is supposed…
I sometimes find this odd though. I would agree with you though but considering Bangkok is the gay capital of Asia, I sometimes find it hard to believe.
Used to be part of a certain circle on my country and what I often wonder is that gay male models or even gay actors have been advised to stay in the closet so they can gain more female fans. But knowing the existence of shippers, it's time for these managers and producers to be less controlling.
There's what we call gay economy. The gay power is real though. But lately, I've observed the existence of 'shippers'' economy. It may not be recognized yet but eventually it will.
This is why i'm telling again and again people don't watch those fan service, it's will break your heart at the…
I actually follow them. But I sometimes hope that they have their own scripted BL series. But then, I have to consider that one of each couple is not fit to act or doesn't like to act.
And now, if we take a look at Western gay couples who are YouTubers, I would say Mark and Ethan should have their own scripted series. Lol. Their real lives are already full of dramas. lmao
Well, if it keeps at this rate, maybe more, I'm quite sure there will be lots of comments about the episode where…
I sometimes think that Tharn wanted to get back at San by persuading the latter to be the bottom. But I know it's not gonna happen because from the personality of Tharn, he will only have Type as his lover.
Well, if it keeps at this rate, maybe more, I'm quite sure there will be lots of comments about the episode where…
Ok, I will wait for that scene when Gulf gets jealous. San is bad-ass though. He's a real competition to Tharn's affection. Tar is okay but I know it's not bound to happen. But if the author decided that it would be Tum instead of the step-brother as Tharn's ex, then I wouldn't mind. The actor Hither was so Fiine. I really think that he is also perfect for Mew, err, Tharn. I am not sure if Hither was also present during Mew's graduation aside from Gulf. I thought it was him.
Honestly, I don't ship MewGulf though I find them to be perfect together. The spreading of the rumour was a turn off for me. That's why I understand a few who will sink that ship. It's their decision. And even if I shared that the two might be in a special relationship, I have no authority to say it. It's for the actors to confirm it or disprove it.
But if Mew and Hither would be a possibility, then I wouldn't really mind at all if they have a series together in the future. I couldn't wait to see their chemistry.
This is the reason that destroy my enjoyement of love by chance last year. All the drama surrounding it was just…
LBC was really good but I actually didn't watch the last part. I hope we can insulate TharnType.
My concern is on the spreading of rumours of Gulf having gf. It will still remain a rumour until the actor confirms it and there's the concern of other Mew fans being overprotective. I might be wrong with my assessment though but some people will go to certain lengths to spoil the fun for others. I sometimes think some fans do the sleuthing and fabricate stories so the MewGulf pairing won't be successful. But I also think it's the competition and that they use bad PR.
Before, bad PR was still good PR. But in today's social media sphere, bad PR is a factor for the death of one's career. It's that BAD now. There are many actors trying for auditions to get the main roles in BL series. And sadly, these actors have higher chances of becoming dispensable considering the changing preferences of audience. Many already want something authentic and I won't be surprised if they drop the series because of a likely reason that it gives them feels but it feels fraud at the end.
Again, it's competition. These actors, managers and producers vie for the sponsors' contribution for them to keep afloat or to attain financial success.
But again, authenticity is the key now, whether we like it or not.
At the last week the drama gain a lot of popularity and also more imature fans came to this " community", unfortunatly…
Firstly, you can take Diana's advise here and that is to ignore the comments.
The thing is I find it understandable for these people to react that way. We have a right to information. And based from the information, we can make decisions. They ask because they want to know so they won't really invest much in the couple. We have to understand that they do this stuff--watching the series-- because there is something believable in them but at the end, they might end up disappointed when they know the reality, immediately crushing their expectations. I was at that point once but it's not in Thai BL.
Anyways, that's the thing I am afraid of when they promote this series. The fanservice is bordering on reality. There's queer-baiting or that's what I perceive. But I understand that because of one certain factor that you can consider an agenda. One of the things that producers have used is that they want these actors' lives remain a mystery. There's no openness and I agree on one commenter here and that it is important for these actors to open a part of their private lives-- their sexuality. At least, in this case fans especially shippers can control their desire to ship the pair.
I know some of you would say that we should ship the characters, not the actors. But knowing the competition in BL with so many series coming out, I think many people already want something authentic.
Even in the gay community, many gay people choose gay films with happy endings because they don't want to experience the negative vibe considering the present stigma faced by lgbtq people even today. They want something that will put smiles on their faces to give them hope and faith at the end of watching the film. This translates to the fact that lgbtqia+ lives can have happy endings or experiences and that things will get better. Yes, it will get better.
I get that people should watch it because of their acting. But it is hard. I used to really love Titanic and even wanted Leonardo di Caprio and Kate Winslet to be real-life couple. But though they didn't end up together, they admitted to have a special relationship. At least, there's that feeling of satisfaction, albeit temporarily. And that's a hetero pairing. Lol. I was in high school at that time.
Why the 1st one?!?!? I mean, Mew has lighter skin than Gulf(there's no much difference but yeah), Tharn is supposed…
I know many are crazy about OffGun and even Lovesick. But I wasn't really into them simply because I see the actors as straight just by scanning them. So I never invested my time watching their series. Sorry, if it sounds rude but after watching many gay films being played by straight actors, I think, really think that gay films should have the main roles given to gay actors. That's just me.Anyways, lol about 'don't overthink'. It's not cool. If you ever have an idea behind the entertainment industry, you will get some ideas about the actors and their being human. I won't divulge much though but these actors are capable of attraction and giving in to attraction. And It's not just about work for them. :)
Btw, you know what clairvoyance is? Anyways, just a hint. Dr. Strange stuff. Lol

If you watch one of the reaction vids of Revil, you can see there that he even mentioned how perfect Mew and Gulf are together. And that they're a Power Couple.
And as for Mew and Hither, you really know what part of the series in that episode that best exemplifies their probable chemistry. I actually thought Tum was Tharn's ex when the latter stared at the former in that episode.

And if I were Mew, knowing the existence of Gulf's lover, I would try to be less intimate and not overly do any skinship with my co-star.
But seeing those vids though... it's up to you on how you think about it. ;)
Can you see any awkwardness in their actions?
I see none so far.
