Weekly update
Feb. 23rd, 2025 08:21 amThis week I hardly used tiktok and instead focused on my own projects. I've been doing a lot of writing and researching. I feel like I'm getting my creative groove back slowly.
I also started watching a few series:
Call Me by No Name (GL)
Japanese, 7+ episodes (airing), Gagaoolala
I've liked every Japanese GL I've watched. Overall j-dramas usually have that delicate and angsty slice-of-life vibe I really like. So this was obviously my first on the watchlist when I heard there was a new Japanese GL. The relationship in this drama has the tropes of first love and moving in together immediately. It's obsessive, weird, mysterious. I really like it. I think I will post a full review once the season is finished.
XO, Kitty
American, 2 seasons, Netflix
Perfect series for a kpop fan. I didn't know this was part of the To All The Boys I've Loved Before - world.
I haven't watched an American teen show for a long time(I think Never have I ever is the last one), but nowadays they're more diverse and have more interesting concepts I can relive my teenage years while watching them :D I watch so much serious and dark stuff I had been looking for something fun to watch for a long time and this was a perfect series for it. I felt like a teengirl watching this series it's so cute. This was the first series I've bingewatched for a long time.
Ofc I have thousand other series on my watchlist. There's so many new Thai GLs, I haven't even checked the new Freenbecky series and film yet... or Petrichor. I think next I'm gonna finish the BL the Heart Killers since I've already watched half of it and it's really entertaining.
From Thai GL's i'm definitely gonna tune into the mafia(The Dragon House) and prison(Clairbell) ones. They are my favorite BL genres as well, and I loved Orange is the new black and mafia films. They are such masculine genres I'm really excited that there are women-centric versions as well.
Next I'm gonna start watching S2 of Fragrance of the First Flower (Taiwanese GL). I really liked the first season.

I also started watching another survival show: &AUDITION where &TEAM was formed. I'm so glad some people who were eliminated on i-land were able to debut on this team. The survival show is not as brutal and the style of it is a bit different, more like a documentary, I think it's primarly made for a Japanese audience. I've been listening to &team discography for the past few weeks and really enjoy their music. I still don't have a bias but at the moment I'm most drawn to Harua because he is so cute.
On Kpop news, I'm really excited for Le sserafim's and Seulgi's combacks next month!
The trailer for Le sserafim's HOT is amazing I got emotional watching it:
I'm so obsessed with Chaewon's outfit she looks so cool and sexy😳
Hyunjin was live on ig yesterday and showed his very aesthetic room.
This is the vibe I want in my life:
I only recently found out about Fandom Trumps Hate. I'm not participating as a writer (i can barely write my own fics), but there are many kpop ships i'm thinking about bidding on. The money goes to charities and i feel like this is something really important that is needed now.
