2 Weddings and 1 funeral (2012, Korea)

Another movie by Korean "out" director, Gwang-su Kim-jo.
He is a renowned movie producer but this movie is his first feature film of his own directing.

Hyo-jin(the one with long hair) wants to adopt a boy in the orphanage. She asks Min-su who works at the same hospital to get married hoping that the marriage will make it much easier for her to adopt the boy. Hyo-jin is lesbian and Min-su is gay. Both of them are under much pressure for marriage.

Min-su agrees to marry Hyo-jin but as you guess it is more complicated than they think to lead a fake marriage.

Other main characters are gay friends of Min-su, who are also members of gay choir, G-Voice(which is real name of the Korean gay choir organized by Chingusai).

The lines are very straightforward and the accident which leads to 'the' funeral is so shocking (at least, to Me).

Kim-jo directed two movies before(Boy meets boy and Just friends). But 2W1F(2 Weddings and 1 funeral) is the most thought-provoking and realistic one.

(Map updated!!!) Japanese Gay Beach 釣師海岸(Tsurishi-kaigan/Tsurushi-kaigan)

I came across two sites introducing gay beaches in Japan. Of course there are not enough infomations, but both of them mentioned "Tsurishi-kaigan" or "Tsurushi-kaigan" which means "angler's beach" literally. It is a secret beach in Chiba, surrounded by sea and cliffs. There's no other way to reach but through a small cave made for local anglers. So it's not safe and not easy to go to this place. And the place is not close to the nearest railroad station, Namihana(浪花) station. This place is not an official gay beach nor nude beach. But the surroundings around this area make it almost perfect place for gays. So if you're ready for all the troubles, read on. :) First, you can get to Namihana (浪花) station http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Namihana_Station via JR. If you start from Tokyo, you can go to Chiba station via JR Sobu Line. And then you can reach Namihana station via JR Sotobo Line(the next station from Ohara s...

Korean Bara artist, Unspoken

Another Korean bara arist that I came across at X (former Twitter), Unspoken . As you can see, he's very skilled in drawing and using colors and such. He seems to upload his steamy comics in Patreon from time to time. When I first found his artwork at Twitter, I thought he and Huntersmell are the same person. ( Click "Huntersmell" above to read my previous posting on Huntersmell. ) I detected some similarities in their drawing styles. But who can be sure? Thank that I have found another talented bara artist. That's what matters.

Newest comic by Jiraiya

I did not know till today that Jiraiya released his newest comic, Two Hoses, a story about two firemen, through Big Gym (in Japan) and Massive (in US). The picture above is from Big Gym (a gay store chain in Japan) twitter. As you can see, this comic seemed to be based on his previous artwork, which was used for several items. (I really love this artwork, even though I generally love his artwork. Actually I love all of his artworks.) The 2nd image seems to be a promotional postcard. And the 3rd image is the US version of the comic. The image is from Massive.
