Color Rush (컬러 러쉬 遇見你之後／與你的顔色) is a new 8-episode BL drama from South Korea. It began airing on December 30, 2020 with each episode of about 15 minutes. Below are 2 songs from the OST, I have also included 2 BTS videos on the making-of the OST songs…
We, Best Love is a new series of BL dramas from Taiwan. The naming of this new series is quite similar to that of HIStory series… We stands for WeTV who created the series and is the broadcaster, while the initials of Best Love is BL which, well you guess it, LOL… The first season is called No. 1 For You 永遠的第一名 (a.k.a. Forever The First) and it started airing on January 8, 2021. This is the opening theme song sang by Kelly Cheng…
(more…)After more than a year, the airdate for the Thai BL series, 1000 Stars (a.k.a. A Tale of Thousand Stars 千星記／千星傳說), has finally been announced. It will premiere on January 29, 2021. The song, Longer than Ever, was used as the BGM song for the mock trailer in 2019, so now I’m not sure if it is still the main theme song for the TV series because in the official new trailer just released yesterday, the BGM is a different song. If or until the new official theme song is released, here’s the MV for Longer than Ever which I really like and has been listening to it since last year…
(more…)Reading the 188 series of BL novels at the moment and they are a torture to read but also very addicting, LOL… You just want to punch one of the main protagonists on the nose in the first half of the novels! I have read 2 of these novels in a row the past couple of weeks, currently reading another one, The Years of Intoxication 一醉經年. In the latter part of this novel, Song Juhan 宋居寒 sang a song he wrote to He Gu 何故 and at the same time came out of the closet in the final performance of his concert and, boy, it was a touching moment especially the speech he gave after he sang the song! The song, Ai He Gu 愛何辜 (translated as Is It a Crime to Love?) is actually a play of words to 愛何故 (Loving He Gu). The song actually exists! It is from the audio drama of the novel. I have also included two other songs from the audio drama…

Currently I am in the midst of reading the 188 series of BL novels by Shui Qian Cheng 水千丞. The first time I came across this author was after watching the 2017 bromance TV series, Beloved Enemy 決對爭鋒 at the beginning of this year, later I started to read the BL novel the TV series was adapted from, 針鋒對決. Of course at the time I did not realise it was part of the 188 series, but I did notice that Yuan Yang 原煬 was really a badass in the novel compared to his watered down behaviour in the TV series.
(more…)Part 4 is getting too long, so I’m moving all the trailers for BL dramas scheduled for 2021 into this post.
Update June 30, 2021: There will be no more updates of trailers in this post for new BL dramas premiering in the second half of 2021 because there are just too many BL series that I have trouble keeping up with. Instead I may do new posts occasionally for teasers or trailers of shows from July, 2021 onwards that look interesting.

A few days ago, news came through that another Chinese BL novel by Priest (the same author who wrote “Guardian 鎮魂“) is being made into a 35-episode TV series, Light the Darkness (tentative English title), for 2021. The novel is Modu 默讀, and has been translated into English as The Light in the Night (original Chinese novel published from June 2016 until January 2017), but expect the TV series to be bromance and not BL since it is being made in China. Shooting of the series is scheduled to begin in February, 2021.

Wish You: Your Melody in My Heart 나의 마음속 너의 멜로디 (祝願你：我心中你的旋律) is a new 8-episode BL drama from South Korea that has just premiered on December 4, 2020. Funny that, South Korean always makes short BL episodes with just about 10 minutes per episode… Below are two OST songs I have found from the series, but they are just audio versions at the moment…
(more…)Manner of Death is a new Thai BL series that will start November 30, 2020. Finally a Thai BL drama series that is not centred around University! I have been looking forwards to this new series which will reunite Max Nattapol and Tul Pakorn, who both starred in the 2017’s BL series Together with Me. The theme song to Manner of Death is called Secret Love and it is sung by Tul Pakorn.
(more…)Wow, GMMTV has finally uploaded all episodes of the 2019’s Thai BL drama series, He’s Coming to Me เขามาเชงเม้งข้างๆหลุมผมครับ (清明時節愛上我), onto YouTube today! What a pleasant surprise, and thank you, thank you, thank you… I watched the series on facebook earlier this year since there were no official episodes online and I had to find each episode one-by-one which was very annoying. Now they are all here on GMMTV official YouTube channel, so happy, as I want to watch the series again in the future once the current rush of numerous new BL dramas finish their runs! Anyway here is the theme song from the series, Let Love Appear (also translated as Make Love Appear) and I have also included a cover version sung by one of the lead actors in the drama, Singto Prachaya…
