GagaOOLala, the global LGBTQ+ and Boys’ Love -focused streamer, announced its latest original Taiwanese-Thai musical BL series, “First Note of Love,” a heartwarming and inspiring story where music becomes the universal language of love, healing, and eventually, the courage to face one’s biggest fears. “First Note of Love” is a 12-episode romantic series set to premiere on GagaOOLala and select streamers on Aug.
The two leads are joined by Star Hunter Entertainment Thailand’s rising BL protégé “Jame” Kasama Kranjanawattana as Orca, an indie Thai musician and a close friend of Neil’s and Taiwanese actor Tim Liu with his BL debut playing Reese, Neil’s agent who takes a liking to Orca. Lin stated, “The filming experience for this BL series has been nothing short of fantastic. With the support from the cast, the production team, the musicians, GagaOOLala and Warner Music Taiwan, I was able to fully convey a story of stunning beauty, tear-jerking laughter and heartwarming love without limits. 'First Note of Love' is pure and sincere, romantic and warm, just like all of the characters in it.
Kok-Siew Yeo, managing director of Warner Music Taiwan, said, “We are pleased to partner with GagaOOLala on this exciting project, as it aligns with our commitment to fostering diverse perspectives and artistic expression. We are confident that the series' timeless narratives, brought to life through compelling storytelling and curated music, will resonate strongly with audiences worldwide. This partnership also reflects our ambition to showcase our artists and music to global communities.
Once considered a niche, the BL genre has gained mainstream popularity, attracting a large audience and active fandom in Asia and beyond. In 2023 alone, a total of around 217 BL titles had aired, as per MyDramaList. Together, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, and Thailand make for the key BL content hubs in Asia, promoting pro-LGBTQ+ stories that are believed to bring visibility and contribute to real-world change for the community, such as Taiwan's historic legalization of same-sex marriage in 2019 and Thailand's similar milestone in June 2024.
