Makapoy man sa dughan ang maglantaw ka mga zombies kag survival horror games, gani giya kita anay mapaliwa-liwa sa waay nagakarawigit ang parte ka lawas kun magdalagan... a feel-good bromance. Ang bromance, according kay Wiki, "is a very close and non-sexual relationship between two or more men." Angay lang dya sa mga pareho ko nga gapamiriphi pa angud sa mga BL kag yaoi genre.
Editor Dave Carnie coined the term in the skateboard magazine Big Brother in the 1990s to refer specifically to the sort of relationships that develop between skaters who spent a great deal of time together. The term did not attain broad currency until approximately 2005 when the theme became more prominent in the motion picture industry. Ben Affleck and Matt Damon were described as "perhaps the pioneering bromance in showbiz history".
Gani kun gusto mo magpahuway anay sa mga fluffy romcoms hay bitter pa ikaw kang nagligad nga Valentines, dyang mga bromances could be good for you.
Bad and Crazy
Ang dya nga mystery series depicts the story of 'bad and crazy' detectives who fight against police corruption. It features OG oppa Lee Dong Wook as the competent "bad boy" cop Ryu Soo-yeol who regains his humanity after meeting the "crazy" K, played by Squid Game hottie detective Wi Ha Joon. Action-packed ang kdrama nga dya but not without moments of drama and hilarity. Makalilingaw ang bromance nanday LDW and WHJ kapin pa kun maman-an mo nga may split personality gali si Soo-yeol. Pay ang gusto ko pa gid maman-an kun ano nga adhesive ang gingamit nanda sa towel ni LDW nga bisan amo dun to ang lampos kana, waay gid naluslos.
You can watch this series on iQIYI and Loklok.
F4 Thailand: Boys Over Flowers
Ah the iconic F4. Amo dya ang pinaka bag-o nga live-action adaptation kang classic Japanese shōjo manga series Boys Over Flowers (花より男子, Hana Yori Dango) written by Yoko Kamio. Sanda gid ka dya ang pasimuno ka Asianobela craze sa Pinas with Meteor Garden kang 2001. Tulad twenty years after, gapamayagpag man angud ang F4 urihing-tubo. Sa tanan nga BoF/HYD nga mga live-actions, ang Korean kag ang 2018 Chinese adaptation lang ang waay ko nalantawan, bisan anime na kato anay nakabakal pa ako ka dibidi. So far, I'm liking this Thai version with Bright (as Thyme), Win (as Kavin), Dew (as Ren) and Nani (as MJ). Dugang pa hay ang duha sa F4 nanda may sikat nga BL series kauna. It's a fun campus romance with a distinct lakorn flavor. I'm actually shipping Kavin and Kaning in this version.
You can watch this series on GMMTV's official YouTube channel, Loklok and the Tagalog-dubbed version on Kapamilya Channel and A2Z Channel.
Ghost Doctor
Ang here's a bromance we didn't think we need but definitely deserve our fangirling. Ghost doctor is a fantasy kdrama that revolves around two doctors from extreme backgrounds, who have complete opposite personalities and medical skills: Cha Young Min (Rain) is a genius doctor with excellent surgical skills but he is arrogant and selfish, and Seung-tak (Kim-Bum), who possesses excellent medical knowledge but has a fear of blood. An accident puts Young Min in a coma and his spirit possesses Seung Tak's body. Bukon dun dya bag-o nga premise but ang nami lang hay gintaw-an da gid importancya ang bromance. Hambal gani ka iban ang bromance lang kuno ang gabuhi ka estorya. And we're here for that bromance. Makalilingaw ang banter nanda.
You can watch this series on iQIYI, Viu and Loklok.
