Spare Me Your Mercy

It’s a Thai BL drama adapted from the novel "Euthanasia" by Sammon. The same Sammon, who wrote Manner of Death novel. It’s about a police officer and a doctor who team up to solve the case of suspicious deaths of elderly patients (a police officer’s mother was one of the victims). A doctor is played by Tor Thanapob, whom I loved a lot as Khatha in Midnight Museum.

The official teaser is here on Youtube.

There are no English subs in the official vid, but someone on boyslove subreddit linked to the version subbed by a fan here.


Amidst a Snowstorm of Love

It’s a new cdrama with Wu Lei. It looks good and I plan to watch it, but I’m waiting for all the episodes to be available on VIKI.


As for music I have an eclectic mix of Thai, Japanese and Korean songs to rec.

Two new songs by Jeff Satur:

Ghost

Yellow Leaf

I have no idea what’s going on in those vids (especially in Ghost, it’s so weird 😊), but the songs are very good.


I'll Be There by GENIC

GENIC is a 7 member Japanese co-ed group, and I’ve been listening to them lately, because one of its members is Mashiko Atsuki aka Yoh from My Personal Weatherman, which I lately re-watched for the second, and probably not the last, time.


dOpamine by OnlyOneOf

I re-watched Bump Up Business last week, and somehow liked it so much more this time than when I watched it for the first time a few months ago. I was pretty meh on it then. It’s pretty low budget and feels rather rushed in the second half, since it has only 8 episodes, and each episode is only 15 minutes long.

But this re-watch made me fall into the rabbit hole of OnlyOneOf music (Nine is my bias, as the kids these days say 😊). dOpamine is their latest song.

Bump Up Business is a Korean BL about idol trainee Eden, who is paired with his older colleague Jihoon to form a duo. Managers decide that this duo will use Business Gay Performance as the concept to attract fans’ attention, but Eden and Jihoon fall in love for real, of course. Two main characters and four supporting characters are played by the members of OnlyOneOf.

I don’t know why I fell so hard after watching it for the 2nd time, but this time something clicked for me and I did. I want to write fanfic (I might have started writing already, whoops). Of course it’s another super tiny fandom, there are only 8 fics on AO3. But what can I do, the heart wants what it wants. 😊
