Unforgotten Night - One Dumpster Fire to Rule Them All
I expect a monster of steaming trash. I expect giggles of BDSM. I expect heaping tablespoons of deep friend dumpling wrapped sugar coated tripe. 
I will be extremely disappointed if this show exceeds my expectations. 
Let’s do this thing, not with a bang but with a 
squelch! 
Tumblr media
Let’s take that flying fuck at a rolling doughnut... together! (What would a doughnut gang bang be? A slam dunk? A double dipper?) 
ARE YOU WITH ME!?!?
Episode 1 - If Your Expectations Are Low, Limbo Under Them 
In case I wasn’t plain enough at the opening, let me make this clearer than a well-hydrated golden shower. The kink rep is gonna be poor in this show. The queer rep is gonna be absent. The business CEO rep is gonna be appalling. The acting is gonna be wooden. The script is gonna be abysmal. I expect scenery chewing so bad we are all farting wood chips out the other side. Your safeword is not reading this blog and not watching this show. Got it? Okay. 
Tumblr media
Dom introduction (Kamol). 
Excellent. We begin with the classic black limo, the classic black on black suit, and an actual rolled carpet. Also cameras from the late 80s. Top marks from complete lack of subtly. Also, it is just me who finds Thai accented Korean incredibly odd? 
Tumblr media
Sub introduction (Kim). 
Gurrl! Cosmos? Martinis? Srs? I am beginning to think this is a period piece. 
Right so we got: Bathroom drama breakup. Plus the lonely slide floor sit. Thailand, we have discussed this at length: no singing & no crying. 
For this drama and this drama alone, I will make one exception. Crying is allowed if you put him in eyeliner and those are pain tears. That’s the rule. 
Def no singing. I refused to allow guitars in my BDSM. Wait no, I’d allow them, but they’d always be just out of reach and anyone caught reaching for one would be immediately gagged and trussed. 
*nods in sadist*
Awe, it's really nice to see some of the old Wabi Sabi crew like Sammy and Title show up. Hi cuties!!! The band is back together again, isn't it?
OH NO I SAID BAND.
Do not take that as a hint.
Where was I? 
Right actually this a god opening sequence set up, nice plot movement, broken hearted (yet still desired & beloved by all) sub, unsatisfied dom. Clear characterizations and support cast. I’m satisfied. And now for the unforgotten night!
Tumblr media
50 Shades of BL let’s DO THIS THING! 
Okay so we see depicted and established consent, even if there’s no proper negotiation, considering we skipped straight to robes, Imma assume there was some ordered cleanliness and negotiation going on before the robing, and go from there. *nodes in plotonium* 
Those restraints are amusingly lose. That said I have had subs with fastening triggers and their binds were mostly for show, so *shrug*. Reminder for anyone out there interested in wax play (a personal fav of mine) you do need special candles. Finally, a light whipping. Nice tame little intro-level scene. It’s pretty good kink actually, for a BL. 
The aftercare bath scene was actually cute. 
Why is product placement in a BDSM BL SO FUNNY? 
So far this is DUMB and GREAT and I am ALL IN. This was exactly what I wanted. Did you know the B in BDSM stands for bouncy? No? Well it DOES now. 
Tumblr media
Kinky books corner: romances with great BDSM rep
I was asked in comments about this show for kinky books with good BDSM rep:
Alexis Hall's For Real is not only brilliant, hugely romantic, and incredibly well written, it’s age gap (younger dom, older sub). I have issues with no limits play, but given the reverse power differential in the D/s dynamic I’m okay with this one. This is also my hands down favorite Alexis Hall. 
If you’re interested in gay BDSM with a wide rep of different kinks and always done very well executed with established safewords, contracts, and protocols then the Collars & Cuffs series by K.C. Wells is probubly your best bet. Which one in the series is your favorite will depend on your kinks, I like Dom of the Ages. They can be read in any order but do feature lots of cross over characters and an overarching linear story about one dungeon in the UK. 
A personal favorite and for those of you loving Old Fashion Cupcake, there is Not Safe For Work by L.A. Witt which features an out bisexual, mature characters, and a secret office romance. It’s got great communication and all the tension is from work drama not miscommunication. 
For het, I think Natural Law by Joey Hill is pretty good. It's mixed up with a police investigation crime thriller aspect, though. I don’t read much het, so there probubly are better BDSM reps out there now. 
If you want something highly erotic and very queer and poly but mixed up with historical (follow me here), then I remember enjoying Bound to Be a Groom by Megan Mulry but I read that one a long time ago. It’s a quadruple 2 Doms, 2 subs, mixed M/m, F/f, M/f, F/m pairings (they are all with each other in various ways/kinks). 
I’ve linked to Zon because I lazy, some of these are only there, some are wide. Pay the author, don’t steal the books. Nash. 
I’m not claiming they have good kink rep but here’s: BLS with BDSM elements, and a lot of the dark BLs from Japan are very heavy into kink 
A brief list of shows featuring BDSM that I liked: Love & Leashes (Korea - Netflix), Bonding (UK - Netflix), The Secretary (USA). 
Everything kink comes with triggers attached. 
But why is this director so fascinated with faucets? Is it a metaphor? Seriously, that direct are we? OKAAAAYYYY 
Episode 2 - Kamol Repping for the U-Haul Gays
I would officially like to request doomy Thai mafia music be played every time I give a presentation to my Korean overlords, thank you very much. And also when I step out of my private plane? Sound good? 
Tumblr media
I’m of 2 minds over Kamol’s sunglasses. On the one hand, Yoon does look more badass in them. On the other hand, they are ALSO PATENTLY ABSURD.
(Honestly, I am seriously not joking about the presentations. Can you just imagine regression analysis, graphs, and charts only with THAT MUSIC playing the whole time? It would certainly add a bit of... oh I don’t know... je ne sais quoi?) 
Tumblr media
Do I think they think they are being subtle putting the Dom on his knees in this shot. Yes yes I do. Are they subtle? No, No they are not. 
THAI LINGUISTICS CORNER 
We pause your regularly scheduled snark, to point out that Kim uses pom/khun with Kamol (as we might expect, this is formal and distancing) while Kamol uses chan/nai with both Kim and his bodyguards. I don’t know what this means (chan as used by a man is somewhat informal but not rude, but also not super common), but I find it intersting. (In the research I could find nai as you was usually paired with rao for the I pronoun, not chan). Nai has been pretty rare in Thai BL, but as we move out of school settings I guess we are going to get more unfamiliar pronouns. Nai is technically the slightly less formal version of khun, gendered specifically for a man of equal social standing defined as: นาย • (naai) Cognate with Lao ນາຍ (nāi) a you pronoun “used to address a male friend.” The bodyguards seem to be using the archaic (semi frozen) from of nai back to Kamol (used to adress or refer to a superior male). 
moving on... 
Nothing much happened. We spent too much time with Kim’s ex. The director made Kim cry again (stop it, Thailand). Kim tried to kick out the mafia. The slightly sus stalker character is back with fruit, and the work ladies are all a flutter. 
Tumblr media
Why does this whole show feel like kiddies playing dress up?
We got a bite-size sample of side dishes: age gap + class gap AKA housekeeper’s baby boi meets sexy head bodyguard. ME LIKEY. 
Tumblr media
It’s a bit slow, but ya know what? I’m still not mad about it. 
Carry on.  
Episode 3 - If you’re confused as to whether I like this show, imagine how I feel. 
Tumblr media
Our leads continue to have a basic (and very gay) misunderstanding:
Gay Party The First - Kinky One Night Stand to Get Over My Ex
Gay Party The Second - MINE FOREVER
Been there. Run from that. 
Nothing happened in this episode except the stalker/Dom still wants the sub and the sub still wants his ex. But hey, I remain engaged. That’s something I suppose. Now move aside UN, I got Triage to catch up on! 
Tumblr media
Also, so far, def not enough BDSM. I am disappointed, but then I expected that. 
Episode 4 - The Background Music is Okay, I guess? 
Recent discussions over the craptastic nature of Thai BL credit sequence tunes has made me appreciate this one aspect of this show, if nothing else. The music is fine. 
Look, it’s crystal clear, while Yoon can (attempt) to be in every Thai BL he can’t play every role. CEO mafia Dom does not suit him - I keep wanting to pich his cute little cheeks and ask, “What so serious?"  
What is it with Kamol climbing on beds with his shoes on? First of all: SHOES inside the bedroom at all? Ugh disgusting. Then on the bed? Yech. 
Also, can we talk about how impractically dumb this wee mirror is? 
Tumblr media
"I have a tiny mirror but have you seen the size of my... tattoo?” 
The dinner table “you should speak in a nicer tone” conversation was actually pretty funny. Kamol is a fun character when others are mocking him like I want to. 
I adore the “assistant” and his baby boy ( @heretherebedork​ you are with me, right?) Please make them happen. I know this isn’t Japan (who loves an age gap), but isn’t this MEANT to be a kinky drama? There are more than a thousand ways to be kinky, you know? 
Give Assistant Daddy his baby boy, okay? 
Okay. 
Tumblr media
Look at the little face. He wants P’Daddy so bad. 
Oh wait.
Is that?
Do I feel... 
Expectations happening?
CAN’T HAVE THAT! 
Bad expectations! No BL for you. 
Tumblr media
I can’t believe I have to explain this. But D’Kamol, Kim wants you to TAKE form him SO he can get angry about it SO you push him around and punish him. I cannot believe I have to explain your business to you like this. Your sub is being a brat that means one thing and one thing only: he’s asking for it. Sheesh. Is this BDSM 101? For goodness sake. 
Ah, now that is the annoyed frustration I was expecting from this show. 
Carry on dumpster fire, do. 
And it will burn-baby-burn, for it looks like next week we continue with the Unnecessary Femme Fetalle! Thailand - the only nation where more UFFs are spotted in one year than UFOs in a decade. 
Oh, I am on a roll tonight.
Next week....
Tumblr media
See you then!
Should we be calling this show Forgotten Kink rather than Unforgotten Night? 
Episode 5 - The First Rule of Body-guarding, Don’t Get in the Middle of a Bitch Fight 
Poor Lop stuck in the middle of an A1 class bitch fight.
I do like that Kamol is direct and open about romantic communication, it’s a very Dom thing to do, at least it should be.
The tiger was dumb. Don’t keep tigers as pets you moron.
So I guess they’re boyfriends now?
Tumblr media
Episode 6 - Sucker for Side Dishes Manifests  
There is a terrible party, and a terrible fight sequence, and some terrible dialogue. 
Tumblr media
About what I expected, actually. 
This is a crappy dumb show.
We got the tiniest of scraps of a side dish, but they are so unbelievably cute together. They have both mine and, of course, @heretherebedork​ ’s hearts. 
Tumblr media
Sometimes I think I should rename this blog 
“sucker for side dishes and second lead syndrome.” 
Or is that just a poem I’m writing about myself?
In case you’re keeping track:
Faucets not turned off - 2
Shoes on bed - 6 (3x) 
I’d say “make it stop” but can’t stop the dumpster fire! 
Episode 7 - They’re Separated, What a Relief 
Tumblr media
I do love it when Thailand tries on domesticity for size. 
I have no idea why they insist on leaving that one for Taiwan and Vietnam 90% of the time, tiny gay families are THE BEST. And you know Thailand can handle it.
Ah, now I’m getting all misty eyed over My Ride... 
Tumblr media
I was going to say that the promise of this show is being squandered, and then I realized that it had no promise.
Look, the safety precautions and sending Kim away makes absolutely no sense in any universe even a Thai mafia one. 
OMG! It’s the house again! 
You know, that house. That one house that all the gay boys live in. The only house that exists in all of Thailand. 
That House.
Tumblr media
FEAR THE STAIRS!
Look here Thailand. I demand that either:
Someone dies and artistically bleeds all over these floating stairs in a lovely splash of red or
Someone falls off these stairs or (better) is pushed at some point
If you insist on option 2 I will, under sufferance, accept that it be a pratfall crash into the seme. 
It’s only fair, you keep taunting us with these stair. USE THEM as all the gods of BL intended, for murder or comedy.
Those are your only option.  
Honestly, I really kind of liked this episode. The fact that the lead couple is apart for most of it was all to the better. I don’t know what that says about this show (nothing good) but there it is.
Tumblr media
Meanwhile, that secondary couple hug was too much. Age gap gets me every time.
The tentative nature of it and the way P’Daddy really wants to hug back but can’t. These two have more chemistry in one glance than the leads do in chains.  
And NOW A kidnaping. How exciting. 
Tumblr media
Episode 8 - WAIT, no kidnapping? how disappointing 
Is it just me, or did the fight scene improve this time around? That’s nice. 
Still no blood on the floating stairs, but you can’t have everything. Especially not in a Thai BL. 
Tumblr media
I like the fact that they highlighted the flawed reasoning and the weird plot point from the last episode (sending Kim away from the safety of a fortress and a  million bodyguards “for his own good”.) 
But there still wasn’t a good explanation for Kamol’s decision. 
Shrimp trope! 
Thai Language Corner:
At one point I reminded you all that gin กิน (the Thai verb) for “eat” is a double entendre, well here it is being a single entendre. 
Tumblr media
Ooh, and an arse slap! 
A rare and remarkably unusual trope. I shall treasure these moment’s between us, Unforgotten Night, for the rare gems in the cess pit that they are. 
I got to say, a true Dom would make that slap sting a hell of a lot more. The point would be to be remembered for the entire day, every time your sub sat down. 
I’m stuck teaching this BL its kinky business,
Me to Unforgotten Night: 
Tumblr media
Apparently next week we have Jake from Enhyphen* in the role of Kamol’s ex-mafia-boytoy.
* just a little joke don’t coem after me engines
Episode 9 - I keep yawning, is it the gummy or this show? 
Honestly I don’t have very much to say about this episode. I guess they are cute boyfriends? But do we want cute boyfriends from our mafia daddy? I ask you?
Rise up BL fandom, because NO WE DO NOT. 
Eh, don’t bother to rise up. Have a gummy to gnaw on instead. It’s not like Kamol’s gonna gnaw on anything soft and sweet. Even when it’s showering RIGHT THERE.
Speaking of which: obligatory gratuitous shower scene. Everyone say: Thank you Thailand! 
Tumblr media
And some hair drying in a WAFFLE ROBE! Haven’t seen one of those in a while. Hello my old friend.
The side dishes just just got crumby again. 
Very soft crumbs. 
Tumblr media
Meanwhile, plot.
Wait... was there plot? 
Enter Danil former fuck-buddy also the boss/adopted dad’s younger brother. Well done there, Kamol, stepbrothers trope! Sort of. Look he’s as half-arsed about his tropes as he is about his kinks. 
I do like that Kim & Kamol had an adult mature communicating conversation about the situation. That’s unexpected.
Tumblr media
Episode 10 - WHOAH THERE BOYS
Okay, I made myself a boozy affogato of chocolate vanilla peanut butter ice cream with creme de cacao and chambord on top (DON’T JUDGE). 
The handhold thing in the plane was very cute, I like those little Dommy insights. But the whole vacation house thing was weird. A forced found family dynamic or something? 
Tumblr media
WHY IS EVERYONE SUDDENLY WEARING NAVY? It’s like the mafia does Ralph Lauren. 
WHAT IS GOING ON WITH THIS SHOW? What’s its purpose in life? What is it trying to do? How am I supposed to feel about it? What the point of anything anymore? What’s the point of life? What’s... ooo... 
*distracted by boozy affogato*
And now Kim has gone off sex? Why a sudden blushing maiden moment? 
OH WAIT, RIGHT.... bratty sub. 
He’s asking for it.
NOTE: This is why you should never top drunk. 
In other (not new) news Khom is a strict but gentle Daddy & Baiboon LOVES it and him so much. 
Tumblr media
Meanwhile rando bodyguard sex, what? Three way. Okay. Well isn’t everyone just hella gay allasudden?
My stars. 
Tumblr media
I am not that drunk, right? It really happened. And in the shower.
I guess everyone is getting laid but Kamol tonight? 
Also Unforgotten Night is clearly vested in going where KinnPorsche elected not to, aren’t they? (KP, to my understanding, originally had a throuple in the y-novel.) 
Well, this show is indeed total trash. I mean it takes a lot to make me feel dirty, and this random bodyguard 3 way did it. Not because I’m opposed to group sex, but because with no character development at all, it came entirely out of nowhere. 
One hopes they did too. 
Moving on to Kamol getting some. 
Tumblr media
WAIT.
No.
Gear in the shower is one thing (shudder) but fastened to THE SHOWER HEAD? What what what?
Have I taught you nothing?
Well, no obviously not.
Hay you, tumblr kinksters, don’t fucking fasten your sub to a shower head, you unmitigated morons. It’s one thing to be a monster and quite another to be stupid about it. 
*grumbles about safety precautions and slippery surfaces*  
Where was I?
Bodyguards doing actual bodyguarding? Claps hands, goodie! Dead people in pools! Fun times. 
And then these two fuckers are SO GODDMAN SOFT.
Tumblr media
The torture of it all. 
I lose my tiny mind over the weirdest is shit. 
And the affogato has worn off.
Sadness. 
Tumblr media
Alright, ya navy clad slackers, what have we learned from this episode?
No navy.
No chaining people to shower heads.
Got it? 
Good. 
Goodnight. 
Episode 11 - Plumbing 
I am three glasses of wine in the sink, so it’s time to start. And also, just let’s get this out front first, no chaining people to plumbing in this episode. No shower arbitrary threesomes. No faucets left on.
In fact, just stay out of bathrooms entirely.
You can’t be trusted. 
What I saw: 
Tumblr media
What I thought of: 
Tumblr media
Right off the plumbing and back to the, erm, plot.
Evil ex is evil in a way that is so one note and awful it’s almost as if he were written by MAME. 
OMG I can not drink enough booze to get through this episode. 
There was this time at this one industry event where there were strawberry daiquiri on tap and it think I stayed up until 4 am drinking them. 
Maybe that would do it? 
Thank the BL gods this ends next week. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I’m sorry I just.... could NOT resist. 
Episode 12 - Let’s Flush This Thing
Look I am boozed up for my last Thursday lush day, and we have to finish this show. Somehow. 
Kim is the biggest most immature whiney baby and honestly they just need a Daddy/boy dynamic butt cause (Imma leave that typo for good reason) who else would put up with his nonsense? 
Worst bodyguards in the world? Likely. 
First mention of gay poly marriage in BL? Unquestionably. 
Bummer these two things had to be combined? Oh yeah. 
Tumblr media
There is a moral to this “story” but I’m not sure what it is.
Don’t combine your BDSM-but-not-really BL pulp with plumbing issues? 
 That’s it, that’s what I got.
You should have heard the disgusted snort noise I made over the white suit handcuff. 
Look, in the end, this dumpster fire got extinguished with a garden hose and all we’re left with is leaky pipes and the smell of damp trash. 
And the only kinks were in the hose. 
Could be worse, I suppose.
Hard to imagine how, tho. 
5/10 
WATCH IT IF YOU HAVE NOTHING BETTER TO DO, BUT I WARNED YOU
Tumblr media
I, on the other hand, do have something better to do since I have a nice new little subscription to WeTV and am going to binge We Best Love for the millionth time. I recommend you do the same.

Yoon Phusanu my beloved never disappoints and has indeed hired a gaggle of lawyers to go up against Y.Entertainment.
youtube
You can watch his whole press conference (with English subs) here.
It includes highlights such as:
Yoon would like to be fairly compensated because he has to provide for his family. His family are seven cats. He's brought pictures.
He's now officially gone freelance and Y.Ent are no longer allowed to use his name.
Yoon hasn't been paid in a very long time, even though he's tried to negotiate and reach an agreement. He's tired of having to run after his money.
He's "only" owed about 100.000 baht (~2.555€ / 2772$ / £2,192) but Yoon's lawyer states that this is a systematic problem and lots of actors in Series Y (Thai BL) aren't fairly compensated. Several actors have reached out to him personally. He also says that he doesn't put blame on the companies because Series Y is a very competitive field. Still, young actors should be careful about who they work with and stand up for themselves if they aren't treated fairly.
They're showing pictures of Yoon's cats again. Yoon has to provide for them, after all:
Tumblr media
Yoon doesn't have acting work lined up right now but he's actively looking for new projects and is in talks to join a new agency.
I'm not sure if this only affects Yoon or the other actors who are owed money by Y.Ent as well but apparently the cut-off date for payment was 11 March. He was offered money after that date but didn't take it because he already knew that he wanted to terminate the contract. Apparently, he had been with Y.Ent for over 4 years and the contract was supposed to be a six year contract (I'm not too sure about this one since the subs are terrible and so is my Thai lmao). Because he's been with them for so long, the whole thing pretty much blindsided him.
Yoon's mother is supportive of him acting in Y Series.
Many other Thai BL actors have talked to Yoon about being treated unfairly and he wants to spread awareness about that.
Apparently, Y.Ent never stated a reason for not paying him. They only told him that he'd be paid at a later date.
Yoon's lawyer says that he has every right to sue but for now he only wants to negotiate. He again urges young actors to thoroughly check who they're working with.
Yoon is asked if this disagreement will cause him problems with other companies down the line but he says that he doesn't believe it will negatively affect him as he's trying to solve the issue peacefully.
Yoon's lawyer again says that actors should read their contracts very carefully. Some contracts don't give the actors any rights but only duties. They might then have to hire a laywer to be able to break contract.
Yoon then says that sometimes he wasn't sent the script before filming and when arrived on set all he'd be given was an old brief that he'd already read. He was then asked (by other crew etc) if he'd practiced his lines which of course he couldn't. This embarrassed him.
The lawyer also adds that there is often a discrepancy between the number of episodes in a series and queues for a shoot. I'm guessing that he means that the actors won't realise that they actually have to work more hours for less money (since compensation seems to be based on episodes rather than hours worked?). This is very difficult to renegotiate and almost no actor in their 20s can afford to settle this in court.
This isn't the first time Yoon has spoken up against the mistreatment of himself and other Thai BL actors in the industry and I'm so glad he has the means to stand up for himself when so many other actors obviously can't.
Fans are so quick to blame bad shows and weird behind-the-scenes stuff on the actors themselves when in reality it's so often due to mismanagement and mistreatment. Imagine not even having a script on shooting day (yes, I'm aware this is common practice in soap entertainment but these are rookie actors without the experience and support that seasoned soap actors have - also in this case it seems to have surprised even the crew on set). No wonder things were akward in Unforgotten Night. Do you really think actors who don't have a script get to practice and negotiate their intimate scenes together?
And judging by what Tor Atagorn has spoken up about recently (and many other actors have alluded to in the past) this is only the very tip of the iceberg, with young and inexperienced actors deliberately trapped in contracts that they have no way of getting out of on their own.
Yoon's lawyer urged young actors to be more aware of who they're working for in order to better protect themselves. In a similar vein, BL watchers should ideally be more aware of whose shows they're watching and what companies have a shady track record.
If nothing else, do it for the cats! These actors have children they need to provide for, after all!

Ok but how is Thailand about to bestow upon us the fourth (that I know of) mafia-themed BL meanwhile Japan hasn't deemed to put out any yakuza-themed shows since the one they de-yaoi-fied into bromance? How is this the world we live in? Travesty. Fucking Travesty. Get your shit together, Japan. :(

Tattoos in BLs
Dean [Until We Meet Again & Between Us] - I do not remember seeing this, but I have the picture, so it must've happened. It’s a compass on his hip because he was lost without Phram and always looking for direction.
Tumblr media
Win [Until We Meet Again & Between Us] – We will hopefully find out something next month when the series begins, but even if we don’t, we can still appreciate that these are henna including those angel wings.
Tumblr media
Jang JaeYoung [Semantic Error] - Does it have meaning? As he stated in the series, “Not really. I just liked it” but I'm seeing an eclipse thanks to Ayan's hoodie.
Tumblr media
Chu SangWoo [Semantic Error] – Hand drawn by JaeYoung, and it is the first image JaeYoung ever drew for him when they first met in the episode one.  
Tumblr media
Black/White [Not Me] – White had to get it because Black had it, and Black had it because..no idea, but it could symbolize death or strength.
Tumblr media
Yok [Not Me] – Mandarin on the flank means mom, but the birds and the forearm one, no idea.
Tumblr media
Tonhon [Tonhon Chonlatee] – “An anchor is what a navigator or sailor uses to hold his vessel to the ocean. Tonhon means a navigator. That’s why I had this anchor tattooed on my left chest to remind me that my heart will not drift away. It will be with the ocean and that is your name, Chonlatee, forever. Every time I look at it, it reminds me that I have you in my heart all the time.”
Tumblr media
Kamol [Unforgotten Night] – I didn’t watch this, so I’m guessing that it was because he had pet tigers, and I'm fine believing that.
Tumblr media
Mangkorn [Big Dragon] – Mangkorn means dragon, and he is the dragon (Yang) to Yai’s tiger (Yin).
Tumblr media
Porsche [KinnPorsche] – A phoenix because that was his underground fighting alias, fire is his friend (he gets the fire started in the woods, he starts a fire in his first week on the job, he smokes), his mom used to tell him stories about the phoenix rising from the ashes, his color in the series is yellow, and he is the phoenix/fire (Yang) to Kinn’s tortoise/water personality (Yin - he's like his mom).
Tumblr media
Pete [KinnPorsche] – “No legacy is so rich as honesty” is from Shakespeare’s comedy All’s Well That Ends Well, which is about a woman of lower rank trying to marry the man she loves who is of a higher rank. The quote shows not only to live an honest life (in a play full of dishonesty), but to be honest with oneself, something that Pete does in the end when…you know.
Tumblr media
Ram [My Engineer] – Has a dream catcher on his neck to chase away bad dreams, a wolf on his arm, a tribal turtle on his shoulder, and a few others.
Tumblr media
Forth [2 Moons 2] – Actor’s actual tattoo. Might be a Sak Yant tattoo for good fortune.
Tumblr media
Sarawat [2gether] – Actor’s actual tattoo. I think it was something about remembering who you are.
Tumblr media
Gene [Lovely Writer] - Actor's actual tattoo. A family portrait. Thanks @calipigio
Tumblr media
Phupha [A Tale of Thousand Stars] - Actor's actual tattoo. It now has a quote above it. He also has two thigh tattoos ("Be somebody nobody thought you could be" and "Every sunset is an opportunity to reset"), "PEACE" on his bicep, and an upper back tattoo. *whispers "I love him"* Thanks @veemark
Tumblr media
Ai [Ai Long Nhai] – Actor's actual tattoo. A crescent moon. Thanks @mushiemadarame for letting me know it's his.
Tumblr media
Ayan [The Eclipse] – Actor’s actual tattoos. The thigh one is a G-Dragon lyric telling his mother not to worry about him. Hip tattoo is "beautiful" (seen in Only Friends) *A little salty about the hip one*

This was so sweet, and Tew's honesty about his feelings continues to be lovely. Guy's face in the third picture is so full of awe, he's never pictured himself as the one to get the big confession. Tew is desperate for Guy to accept him and his plans to quit (even though it's been stated several times now that he didn't know how to go back to a normal life. So. Idk how that's gonna work, or what I actually want to happen).
But my first thought was so, so silly:
Tew, here's what you gotta do: Call Kamol. He did the whole "leaving the Mafia for the man I love" thing. He will help you. Kim will adopt Guy, because he already quasi-parents another college student. His bodyguards that are in a throuple will protect you.
Call. Kamol.

First off I really appreciate the insight that you share with our little corner of Tumblr.
And I was wondering; you have mentioned on multiple occasions who your favorite BL leads are but do you have a favorite BL character actor? So often character actors are just as talented as the leads so I was wondering who sticks out for you.
Fun question!!! Thank you. 
Favorite Thai BL Character Actors!!! 
The only industry I have good consistent familiarity with enough to pay attention to character characters is Thailand... so I am picking from them. 
Tumblr media
Gunsmile Chanagun  
Probubly my favorite Thai character actor. He’s with the GMMTV stable and everything he does for them from serious like SOTUS or 3 Will Be Free to comedic like 2gether or He’s Coming to Me is truly brilliant. He is one of the few Thai actors who consistently makes me laugh with his physicality alone (on and off screen). The drunk sequence and the stretching sequence in the 2gether series alone will live on in infamy. I can tell that this talent is all coming directly from Gunsmile. In other words he’s naturally comedic and the directors who handle him best just give him the role and let him run with it, quietly stealing every seen whether in the background or not. He is a JOY to watch.  
Tumblr media
Sing Harit 
I am old school Sing fan, I loved him from his Love Sick days, before he join the GMMTV stable. (Was there even a GMMTV stable at all in 2014?) I LOVE seeing him turn up, from comedic to sinister (like in Not Me), he is always a pleasure on screen, his face is so mobile and expressive. 
Tumblr media
Samantha Coates (AKA Sammy) 
AKA everyones BL girlfriend. Although I object to her recent plastic surgery work (evident in Unforgotten Nights, honeychild NO) I always love seeing her turn up. She’s been a favorite of mine since UWMA and I think she’d be wonderful anchoring a full length well written GL, should Thailand ever bless us with such a thing. (She was great in the short Seven Project one.) 
Tumblr media
Poppy Ratchapong 
The least well known on this list, he first popped onto my radar in YYY as Porpla, I loved him all soft in Why R U?, and I can understand Cheewin’s addiction to continuously casting him. You probubly know him best as Foei in Cutie Pie. I have seen ever single show he’s been in and enjoyed him every single time. I should note that he has an older brother, Park Parnupat, who has also shown up in lots of BLs. They look very alike, but Park is less flashy in his performances. Poppy is super hot too, and I think he could anchor his own BL, it’s just he hasn’t found the right pairing or vehicle yet. Fingers crossed. 
I would put Jenny in here but I don’t always actually like the roles she is given, with the exception of 3 Will Be Free. 
That’s all I can think up off the top of my head. Who did I forget?

I love the violent reverse-gatekeeping that the Thai BL fandom is doing right now.
Like "Oh, you found us because of the first live action omegaverse show?
TWUNKS BE UPON YE!!!"

I'm sorry for going crazy over Thai BLs calling out same sex marriage legalization. As if that's my fault.
