My Grandpa Is a BL Writer คุณปู่วุ่น Y หลานชาย Y วุ่น is a 10-episode Thai family drama series which will premiere on May 16, 2026. This is not strictly a BL drama, more of a lakorn series with LGBTQ themed storyline… I am really looking forward to watching this series, but since the drama is airing on Thai PBS, it is very unlikely there will be English subtitles which is a shame!
As times change, so must Grandpa… Somsak, a renowned 75-year-old author of rugged, wilderness-exploring novels, with an ego that soars and a deeply conservative spirit, is facing a major crisis as the bank is about to seize “Saeng Karun House”, the family’s orphanage!
Saeng Karun House was founded by Luang Prasit Phithaya, Somsak’s grandfather. He was a compassionate man who wanted to give orphaned children a better life. Somsak is determined to carry on his grandfather’s great ideals. In the past, he managed the foundation with money from writing adventure novels, but recently his novels have stopped being published because they aren’t selling well. The only quickest way to make money is to write “BL (Boys’ Love) novels”, because younger generations are more interested in this genre than the novels he used to write.
Sar (Gen X), the eldest son, disagrees with his father forcing himself to write BL (Boys’ Love) novels. He and his wife, Mas, try to earn income elsewhere by selling traditional Thai desserts using recipes his great-grandmother, Saengiam, learned in the palace. Meanwhile, San (Gen Y), the youngest son, suggests selling the house to avoid the financial burden. Snow (Gen Alpha), the youngest granddaughter, asks AI for help finding a solution because she doesn’t want to lose her friends from the orphanage, amidst the opposition from different generations within the household.
His grandson, Safe (Gen Z), lends a helping hand. When this Baby Boomer grandfather and Gen Z grandson join forces, things get even more chaotic, because they come from different generations and have completely opposite personalities!
Somsak is struggling to adapt to the digital age daily, feeling like he’s going crazy. Meanwhile, Safe is finding his own way out. He knows that you can’t catch a tiger cub without entering the lion’s den. Safe decides to try dating Guy, a male friend who confessed his love to him, in order to gather factual information about gay relationships to use as material for his grandfather’s novel.
A chaotic adventure unfolds between a grandfather and his grandson, spanning two generations. This mission is immense. Will Somsak’s adaptation to modern times allow him to successfully write a Boys’ Love (BL) novel? And will the money from selling the novel help save the Saeng Karun House? Find out in… Grandpa’s Chaos, Grandson’s Chaos!
