Wait a minute... I’ve seen 'em before?

BL Actor Guest Cameos!

I’m choosing only leads or mains or icons showing up in other shows.

A Man Who Defies the Wold of BL 2 feat Izuka Kenta from the Pornographer (AKA the Novelist) series - I love this one because he’s an iconic character in the Novelist, a college kid seduced and gaslit by an older man, where as in ABL2 he plays the opposite, a seductive older man who messes around with the heart of a younger one. Japan is, as usual, being very trixy. (He ALSO shows up in Ameiro Paradox)

Kieta Hatsukoi AKA My Love Mix-Up! feat Shirasu Jin from Life Love On The Line - Japan being cheeky again by putting an actor who perviously played a character who could not come to terms with his sexuality, having a real hard time coming to terms with someone else’s sexuality this time around.

Secret Crush on You feat Saint from Love By Chance & Why R U? (Thailand) - yes he’s got a producer credit, it was still fun to see him pop in and smile.

Cutie Pie feat BounPrem from Until We Meet Again (+others) - they came, they shilled for marriage equality in Thailand, they conquered.

What’s Zabb Man feat Bas from 2 Moons (+others) - yes, Thailand’s Star Hunter studio does a lot of crossovers, but I found this one particularly amusing.

SOTUS S feat Gun (for OffGun) at the time from Puppy Honey (Thailand) - it was just amusing to see OffGun show up in their nascent form.

Plus and Minus feat Akihiro Kawai & Lance Chiu from See You After Quarantine? (Taiwan) - they even snuck in the name Haru (the fake name that started the romance in SYAQ) but they clearly aren’t playing the same characters.

Plus and Minus feat Arron Lai & Hank Wang from Be Loved in House I Do (Taiwan) - ostensibly playing different characters but only JUST.

Nobleman Ryu's Wedding feat Lee Sang from Wish You (Korea) - this was really cheeky since he was previously paired with the same lead, in other words this was a cameo of “the other man”.

Ocean Likes Me feat Park Bum Jun from Behind Cut (Korea) just looking gorgeous in the background of a crowd scene. I mean, I get it, why not?

Mark from Bite Me and Love By Chance popping in to play an actor member of the cat tribe in Meow Ears Up, he also showed up in love

Mechanics as the momentary love interest for Nuea we all actually wanted to see happen.

About Youth feat Wilson Liu from HIStory 3: MODC & HIStory 4 as a senior student speaking English.

Choco Milk Shake feat Yeon Seung Ho from Long Time No See (Wild Dog) as the one good ex-boyfriend.

I dithered over Mean and Prem in The Yearbook, but then decided not to bother. Kinda my general feelings about that show.

And...

BL Character Crossover Cameos!

Since characters are IP this is a much more dangerous territory. Often you’ll notice they aren’t called by name, or the name is spelled differently than the original. But we ALL KNOW what’s going on here.

Why R U? feat TeeFuse, the main characters from Make it Right (Thailand).

Why R U? feat TharnType, the main characters from TharnType (Thailand).

Korea also got in on the game and had MaxNat (whose couple originated in WRU?) appear in their remake of Why R U? as a background couple. Very clever.

Tan & Dr Bun the leads from Manner of Death (MaxTul) in Triage the series (Thailand) - this is a full on character couple cross over, named (and married) and authorized, and rare to see. It’s because the same author is responsible for both source y-novels.

HIStory 3 Make Our Days Count feat Cheng Qing from HIStory Stay Away From Me (Taiwan) - he’s not named, but he is referred to as an idol and he alludes to his secret relationship so I think we can assume he’s the same character.

The side dishes from HIStory 3 Make Our Days Count (they got engaged) show up and get married in HIStory 4 Close To You. Which was cute. It’s a bit more than a cameo spanning several episodes, but it was very fun to see. And they play the same characters.

Be Loved in House I Do feat Hao Ting from HIStory 3 Make Our Days Count (Taiwan) - I think we can assume from the advice he gives that this is the same character on the, shall we call it, Taiwanese timeline as opposed to...

My personal favorite, Hao Ting & Xi Gu (in an alternate timeline and billed only as Taiwanese tourists) from HIStory 3 Make Our Days Count (Taiwan) showing up at the end of Life Love On The Line (Japan) in the only known country cross over of BL characters. I love the irony of this, since apparently took Japan (NOTORIOUS for it’s unhappy and dark BL endings) to give these two an actual happy ever after.

For once, we all preferred the Japanese ending.

And then they did it AGAIN in Plus & Minus.

And AGAIN in Kisseki: Dear to Me!

Honestly it feels like, sometimes, Taiwan is constantly trying to apologize for HIStory 3 Make Our Days Count with all these cameos, WHICH THEY SHOULD.

In Thailand it’s director Cheewin who likes to do this a lot. He’s also very cheeky in Y-Destiny doing a love triangle (sort of) between YoonLay (YYY’s KnottPunn) and PerthLay (My Engineer’s RamKing) as one of the story arcs - making his pair (from YYY) the “winners.”

He got ahead of himself by featuring the main couples for Middleman’s Love in Cutie Pie but then JimmyTommy pulled out. So this is a very brief look at a series that never was (in this form?) crossing over.

Like faux crossover.

However, TutorYim, also from Cutie Pie, show up very briefly in Jun & Jun as friends of Simon for no apparent reason.

When Korea goes all on of a trope they really, the same year all their crossover couples started to appear (2023) they also had Love Class original couple show up in Love Class 2.

Honorable mention to Ae’s Tote from Thai BL Love By Chance getting a cameo appearance in Taiwanese BL About Youth.

Okay, this could either go the amazing route or the cringe route, we’ll see, but: that there is Raiku, who played beloved Yuuki in Life: Love on the Line. This is a preview for Don’t Stop My Beautification/Ore no bijoka ga tomaranai!? -- Raiku’s character moves into an apartment where, long story short, in order to live there, he needs to cross-dress and work at a cafe.

It’s a TV Tokyo late-night show, so I’m hoping they do good by this premise, because seeing Raiku in this role excites me, but I’ll be waiting with trepidation. (I feel like I have a high standard for shows that may not differentiate between gender expression and gender identity, which Life as a Girl on NHK did really well.)

Anyway -- Raiku in a starring role. At least I’m happy about that!

This guy literally playing with other people feelings and only care about his own. Like wtf dude leave his long term bf and married with his co-worker cause he said "we will never have a future if we together" and after 3 years of marriage he said that he still in love with his ex like dude breaking people feelings. Honestly the longest 4 eps that I've ever seen.

Don't Stop My Beautification (2023)

The drama, starring Raiku from Life Love On The Line, depicts a coming-of-age story about jumping into a new world with the theme of transgenders and cross-dressing.

OFFFICIAL SYNOPSIS: Haruomi Saito (Raiku) is a young man who moves from his hometown to Tokyo to attend a university. He begins to live in a lodging place that charges a low price of 10,000 yen per month. On his first day there, he meets a beautiful girl named Kokono. While making conversation with her, Haruomi Saito’s face blushes. He suffers from erythromania, which causes him to blush often. Haruomi Saito is excited to live with a such beautiful girl, but he soon discovers that Kokono is actually a man.

Hopefully it'll be available somewhere with official english subs soon.

ohhh the ask game is so fun, i couldn't pick just one question 👀 here are my favs qs i would love to hear your answer to

4 9 20 21 24

thanks for the game, meta, analyses, reactions, screenshots and so on, i have a lot of fun reading you. have a nuce and calm weekend.

4. most ridiculous plot

I picked twice before but since I got this again I’m picking a third one! This is where being a BL completest helps.

TharnType 2. Like WHAT was going on? Here is the trash watch with me slowing going mad trying to follow the plot.

9. name a BL and I’ll pick my fav character

You didn't name one *pouts*

20. drama I thought I’d never watch but did (and liked it?)

I already picked for this, Great Men Academy. But that was kinda a cheat because I didn’t think I had to watch it because maybe not really BL. I try to watch ALL BL so I guess this is more, BL I thought I’d DNF but didn’t.

My Esports Genius Brother - China (2021) Gaga

A strangely cute somewhat incomprehensible censored magical realism BL micro series about fated mates who balance each other out and must find the courage to stay together. Way more gay than I thought they could get these days.

21. if I could pick one thing to fix about BL dramas, what and which country

HOW SHORT KOREAN BLS ARE.

I was hoping to get this question!

I was okay with their shorter runs to start, but I also love regular Kdramas, and I'd really like to start seeing some proper 16 ep KBL!

24. I’ll tell you some dumb fact or stat I know about BL that surprises me when people don’t know it

As much as I slag off H3:MODC it’s an open secret that Wayne Song (at least) also hated the ending. Or maybe he hated how many fans whined at him about it (and he’s apparently dragged Huang Chun Chih into his madness). He, or both of them, have to date cameo appeared (as their characters or an alt reality version) in

Be Loved in House I Do

Life Love On The Line (form Japan - ironic)

Plus & Minus (Taiwan)

There’s an informal pool going amongst BL super fans as to which BL he (or they) will show up in next.
