Define mature  you mean script or explicit  

Both but it doesn't have to be explicit. 

 

That's why i wrote less childish and mature. 

 

I dont want a Disney type of show if it makes sense  

 

[Nebur]

I see how everyone voted for actors who haven't released anything in recent years... in their top

 

[Nebur]

 

 

Jang Eui Soo He is my favorite visual actor from Korea and Max my favorite visual actor from Thai, but I didn't vote for either because he hasn't released anything recent

but if you think about it, BL king has no date limit, I should have gone for the nostalgia of my top of all time, however my top 3 would be the same this year we had excellent competition

Despite him being a fool for allowing his friend to stop his BL bag, we can’t deny that he held down the K-BL scene for a couple of years

look at u predicting his stardom

He was the best thing about Tonhon Chonlatee and Fish upon the sky. 

 

So I've always seen his potential.

I think I might have forgotten to tag or PM you to collect last-minute votes. Your guaranteed Neo vote would have been helpful.

 

He's also the best thing in My Tee, The Eclipse and of course Only Friends.

When I watched it, I was going "Oh my, this looks good!" Then of course, I was once again going WTF because Chimon had to step into the bathtub fully clothed. 

 

I think PerthChimon will get at least one more shot next year, but I hope the two will be bulking up so that at least we can some skin next year.

[elevate]

This show was so cozy and sweet

I think Jojo could get them something interesting cause this script was messy but in fun tbh. I still don’t think Kang atoned for his horrible bullying tho

If I am not mistaken, Nat is probably the first quadragenarian to ever debut on BL King. He was born 40 years ago, the year marking the official beginning of the Internet and the first cellphone call. He was born even before Steve Jobs launched the Mac.

 

He last played a queer character in Friend Zone 2 (alongside the #46 ranked Singto), but has appeared in other BLs like the panned Never Let Me Go and the queerbaiting hit series Mama Gogo.

He needs to be cast in the eventual GMMTV remake of "Old Fashion Cupcake".

This may be the 1st time ever that a host introduces Metawin in positive terms.

 

 

 

 

Despite 2Bros' reputation, Win's acting in his debut series has managed to earn some plaudits, much to the chagrin of certain haters. Post-2Bros, Win has gone on to snag an Outstanding Support Actor award at the Manee Mekhala awards show last year (for F4 Thailand). His new show this year, Enigma, has gone on to become a critically acclaimed limited series, and a follow-up series is now confirmed to be in the works. With his former ship partner Bright departing from GMMTV, Win now assumes top dog status in the company.

 

Will BrightWin ever re-unite? Well, Enigma 2 may be that reunion that some of us seek.

The perpetual #25-er has unfortunately been pushed out of the top 40, but is still one of 5 or 6 actors to have placed in the top 40 for each of the last 4 years. Despite his smoking hot body and gorgeous looks, Earth tends to get the short end of the stick, by being cast in a role where he may inexplicably sprout homophobic remarks despite being homosexual, or simply not being prioritized by his own company. He also seems to have the knack for getting into strangely compromising positions with his fellow actor colleagues.

Genius1111 - 31

 

Bright is the only former #1 holder to remain in the top 30 (or top 50 for that matter). He is also, interestingly enough, the only actor to star in 3 of 4 GMMTV-produced movies that are also / will also be released theatrically, namely 2gether The Movie, Congrats My Ex! (2023) and The Interest (2024). Now of course, we all know that he has officially left GMMTV to become an independent actor in his own company,Cloud9 Entertainment, but unlike his former colleagues, we can expect him to still appear in GMMTV on a somewhat regular basis.

 

Growing up, Bright's family were far from being financially well-off like his colleagues, so it's very heartening to see that he managed to gain admission into prestigious schools and universities, and enjoying the fruits of his labor. Bright's work ethic has been praised by his former colleagues (Mek Jirakit and Joss I think) and some of his colleagues seem to have a crush on him too (*ahem ahem* Neo *coughcough*)

It's easy to forget that Bright is quite academically inclined.

The critically acclaimed Old Fashion Cupcake, despite its mere 5 episodes and 1 mini-epilogue, has captivated audiences and propelled one of its leads into the top 30. Tatsunari is also one of 3 JBL actors to have received at least 1 #1 mention.

[Genius1111]

Also, I would like to apologize for a tabulation error that I have just realized. Takeda Kouhei, also from Old Fashion Cupcake, should actually be placed at #69 (28 points). This means that Nanon, Meguro and Krist are pushed down to #70, Kang Min is now at #73, Hio is at #74 and Satang is now at #75. Won Tae Min is now out of the Bubbling Under.
