    I'll never understand fans that forget that actors are just people living their own lives too, not their property or whatever parasocial delusions they might have 😢 Fanservice can be soo cringey and I hate when it feels like they're forced to have any intimate moments, even if just friendly. 'OMG, they touched shoulders!' Sheesh.... Anyway, love these q&a's and congrats on POT! 🎾😊

      The actors and film makers do it as well. You see them purposely hanging all over each other without fans asking for it. that's because they want their product to be successful. You can't just blame the fans when the film makers understand the actors getting shipped helps make their movies or TV shows more successful. So they "show off" when in public for exactly that reason.

      I think it might be one of those chicken and the egg things. Maybe fans spotted a real spontaneous 'moment', reacted to it and that made people want to do fan service to generate a similar response. Or maybe fan-service came first.

I also appreciated that you mentioned the s. harassment that the actors are constantly being putting through since it quite often, feels way too out of control (my guess is that sometimes, some people, forget that you guys are human being that will see that specific comment!).

    10:59 speaking as a bi person with some gender fluidity, at the core it is very simply a person loving another person. The differences are superficial and also come down to the individual. Gender is an aspect of a person but there are so many other factors. You don't love them because they're a girl or a guy, you love them for the person they are. When you describe the things about someone you love, many of those things won't be gender-specific, for some examples, a sense of humour, kindness, passion for art, dedication to their family or their business, shared values, adventurous, quiet... Anyone can be those things.

It's different for bi people since they are attracted to both genders but for straight or gay people it is the first thing, which is so basic that it doesn't need to be mentioned. You are just not gonna see any other characteristics in a romantic light otherwise. We form our first impressions of people in the first 10 seconds. We decide if we are attracted to them in that time too. So yeah, you notice a nice smile, a good sense of humor etc but it's always in regards to platonic or romantic feelings (friendships or sexual/romantic relationships).

      This is all of course true, but I think most people are more skeptical about straight people playing gay roles because straight people won't ever fully understand the nuances of homophobia and discrimination that gay and LGBTQ+ people in general face, as well as just the complex identities they formed growing up that straight people just didn't experience and thus would kind of only gain some sort of understanding by talking to queer friends. Thus, people think straight people may not completely get the character their playing, which is a fair concern. However, when the characters someone's playing don't really deal with the complexities of a queer identity in a drama, as Perth's really haven't, then I think the concern about straight people playing them can be soothed since a straight actor could understand them more easily.

    Whenever I think of fan-service, my mind just goes, “Why?, just why?” Personally for me, the couple starts and ends with the series. Shipping actor’s is weird. People need to be able to separate the actor’s from the character’s they play. I honestly do not get why they make something so simple, so complicated.

    I think Perth gave very thoughtful answers. I've been part of the BL community a while, and with my peer group, our entry was through manga or novels. Thailand had Love Sick in 2014, and back them bilingual Thai fans would sub the series. Even GMMTV's SOTUS and SOTUS S were not subbed upon release, it was fan subbed. I think this is why international fans always had a close relationship because we appreciated how fans would literally gave up their free time to subtitle shows, or translate manga to English, just for the love of BL. Chinese fans were also very dedicated until the law changed. It has taken years for China to produce the soft BL/bromance they are releasing now. China used to produce 18+ content in the past.
    I consider fan service as acting, and with the wages in Thailand, I do not condemn artists for doing ship work. I think the actors should be honest about their relationship, that they are just acting partners. By sending mixed signals or being ambiguous, it gives some fans hope that people are really in love, when they're not. I actually feel bad for the fans who really think that people are a real couple. Fans will fight in the comments over it, or go nuts if an actor has a girlfriend. Back in the day, poor Krist from SOTUS had to say he and his girlfriend of 5 years broke up. Whether they broke up for real, I don't know, but that's the boundary that I think should not be crossed by fans. Cut the overt sexual crap at fan meets and just have fun.

    Love that you pointed out the BL stories have become more complex. I think in the past the themes were quite repetitive and kind of one dimensional but now the stories have so much depth and character development and that’s been my favorite part of the evolution of BL. I’m also so so happy that GLs are becoming more of a thing because queer girls deserve representation too!! That being said regarding the comment about “mature content” I think it makes sense when it fits the story, but sometimes it does feel forced and when it’s forced it leaves a bad taste in my mouth. The great thing is that because there’s so many BLs you can really choose what fits your preferences, there’s plenty of soft and cute dramas and there’s plenty that have mature content as well (and by mature I mean not just sex but themes that include violence, trauma, etc).

    At the beginning I did not know of fan service, so I thought everything is genuine and they are together in real life. 😂 But honestly, I’d rather there would be no fan service pressure at all. Fans have gone too crazy because of fan service. Going to the extent of hating specific actors because they broke the “couple” and decided to act in straight dramas only or couple with someone else. Some fans forget that actors just do their jobs at the end of the day. Or fans hating on the actor’s real life partners because of the show “couple”. This is just wrong. If I like an actor I like him or her for their talent and for how they portray a role. Some fans just want to dictate everything that the actor is doing in his or her life.

    It's so interesting to hear about your perspective from a thai (bl) actor himself!
    I personally mostly dislike fanservice, especially when the actors are forced to do things they are not really comfortable with it, but do it bc they know the fans love it + their series get more recognition. Also, fake/pretend relationships are so awkward. I do love real life chemistry though, whether that's just because you are great friends, have a close bond, or in some cases, a more romantic connection. It's just nice seeing people work together and actually having fun together!

      I am rooting for natural chemistry only like you do but I think they've already got it that it's way much better and more successful that way so they created those workshops for actors to give them time to adjust and dig deeper in the connection they have. So it's happening. It's not so depressing if you think about it. Basically most actors have an intention of being really friendly, lovable and understanding of each other and it's not for the sake of money or fame, it's for genuine purposes. For us.

    I agree that recently actors have calmed down with the fanservice and I appreciate it a lot. As you've said some like it and some don't, I personally just like to see the cast getting along, including the lead couple but putting on an act for fans usually feels weird to me, especially because it creates such a problematic interaction between fans who do and the ones who don't like it meaning especially the ones that do like it also always "fall" for it in the sense that they throw big words like homophobia around whenever people tell them that it's in fact just fan service and that said actors have neither confirmed nor denied dating or even being into people of the same sex. As you've said, it's cool just taking it with a pinch of salt and having fun with it but unfortunately there will always be people reading way too much into it and genuinely believing these interactions to be true without there being any form of confirmation. But I feel like recently it has calmed down, everyone is just promoting their shows, having fun and getting along in a friendly way which is so fun to watch.

Anyway for recent BL, it’s not just saturated, it’s over saturated so for me, it’s simple, any trailer than doesn’t catch my attention automatically gets pushed down and I wait and watch for stories which trailers catches me. Mature content or not, for me it’s the story. Yeah I can consume mature content for the sake of it but it’s kinda like fast food, people can get bored easily even though it’s yummy, fast and convenient. Great job Perth with the Q&A.

      Actually, it's more about the age of the fans. Not all Thai fans want fan service, I mean, they do enjoy it at some certain levels but not all wants it. And like I said, it's about the age of the fans, younger fans seems less aware of fan service being part of the actor's job. The older fans are very aware of it, they can differentiate whether the pairing's relationship is real or fan service. They enjoy it at certain levels of fan service and some likes to joke with actors about the actors being in a relationship, it's a way of their joking and dream, that's all. Yes, they want their pairings to date for real but they also know the limits too. Younger fans are less aware.

    The thing about the sex sells (I know you covered it with "mature content" but let's call it what it is), it's true that having intimate scenes in a series makes people talk and even watch it. We've seen it with some series going viral beyong the BL community. Personally, I don't mind intimate scenes but sometimes it's quite obvious they're added just to "satisfy" a certain audience. I wish BL producers would focus more on writing complex characters and leave out these scenes that are just there to make people scream at their screens. Or rather implement them better into the story. There's a series currently airing that perfectly does that, it's a fun watch while also offering great plot and drama. It's all about being authentic while still making something fun or exciting.
    We've come a long way since those early BLs and at this point there's some really great stuff out there. I hope we'll continue to make good content and not add scenes without context just for one sole purpose

      @TheNychthemeronThing Only Friends. While they have a lot of 18+ scenes in the beginning they later on focus on the characters and make it emotionally dramatic

I've been a fan of Prince of Tennis for several years, musicals included and hearing you say you'll be part of the musical literally made my day! I'm going to take a shot in the dark and guess which character you'll be portraying if you'll be in Seigaku and that's Oishi Shuichiro.

    I also love what you said about people loving people, I don't think I've heard from a lot...or from any Japanese 2.5D actors talk about their thoughts like that but it would be great if you could be open about that in Japanese too. Unless you're somehow not allowed to be (in Japanese(??))
    Anyway!! Good luck at Osaka and see you at the end of your Tokyo run!! Can't wait to see you sing and dance about tennis!

    I really enjoyed listening to your thoughts in this. For me, and maybe many others, My Engineer was one of the first BLs I ever watched, and while it was an enjoyable series because it was one of the first BLs I'd watched, it will always be a memorable thing for me. It's funny, when I was just starting out watching BLs -- only last year -- I didn't intend to get as deeply invested in the genre as I did. But watching My Engineer, I discovered you as an actor, and because I enjoyed your performance, I actually used MyDramaList to kind of guide my journey as I trusted you from an acting perspective if that makes sense! So I'd argue that if I hadn't seen you in My Engineer, I might not have discovered and enjoyed other BLs that I ended up enjoying, and I may not have gotten as invested in the genre as I have! So thank you! Good luck in your musical by the way! I hope it's an amazing experience, and does really well! I appreciate your work ethic! It's a "Yes or yes," kind of thing. Was THAT a Twice reference? Love it if so! I completely agree as well about your thoughts on 'mature' BL content, as being an adult as well, I don't want all the stories to be Engineering students in University -- and there are more stories and themes to explore outside of that! Thank you for this video!

    I started watching bl in 2018, back then I watched basically anything I could get my hands on 😅, but for the last couple of years the quality of a lot of shows has dropped because there are now so many being produced. But the quality of the good ones has definitely improved since 2018, there is now a large variety of storylines and characters.
    I don’t really mind fan service but I don’t pay much attention to it, I prefer just to watch the drama, I do watch a lot of kpop fan service though so my views are a bit conflicted. I don’t like forced fan service, I am also not a fan of fan service that is portrayed as being real or ambiguous.

    Hi Perth. I usually see your videos but never comment on them. Just wanted to know that I enjoy these kind of videos where you tell us the behind the scene as an actor, super casual and chill.
    I wanna make a small appreciation on the "Life choices" part of the video, mostly because it shows you have auto-critic (a must do for an actor if you ask me). And you don't only think of the "what if..." (which we do not have any kind of control over of what hasn't happened) but also focus on the good experiences of life that got you here.
    This is toootally subjecting but, I do think you do like acting and It's really great you are having all of this cool opportunities. Congrats on Prince of Tennis! ♥

    Great video Perth. Thanks for answering the questions! I liked how you answered truthfully how you cant turn down roles. There are actors out there that are just trying to survive. They don't have all of the likes & fame as the popular actors do. What do you think actors in general need to do to become more popular in the acting community?
