Yup I prefer Japanese and now Korean bl stories or low budget Thai bls by independent film makers, as generally they’re always beautifully told and acting always so good and natural .. I love that, unlike Thai bls made by the big studios using the big name Thai actors, the stories tend not to focus on gay stereotypes types and tropes .. like husband wife top bottom passive aggressive etc etc etc .. in most commercially led Thai Bls I feel the only purpose of the intimate scenes/NC scenes is to provide titillation to increase viewing numbers of predominantly straight audience .. I find it all a little forced and voyeuristic ..
