Seoul LGBT Film Festival

I visit Seoul LGBT Film Festival almost annually. This year I visited for a film on the first openly gay bishop, Gene Robinson, Love Free or Die . I found him very familiar not knowing why. Couples of days later, I watched another documentary on Christianity and sexual minorities, For the Bible Tells Me So , to find that Robinson is one of the main characters.  I watched the latter years ago, which is why I found Robinson familiar but didn't remember where I had seen him. 

Queer Toon by Byunchun

Another queer comics by Byunchun(Angel Crazy). I bought at Seoul LGBT Film Festival(selff) booth the other day.  This is comic anthology of comic strips and gay-themed parodies of famous paintings. Some of them are hilarious. 

She is Wow - Another gay-themed Korean Soap

During recent years, many cock-and-bull soaps were big success in Korea. The writers seem to focus on the most absurd and extreme stories ever and the ratings are better as the stories are more extreme and more absurd. Many people say that they watch even though they dislike the stories. Anyway, this is another cock-and-bull soap, people say. The husband's being gay may only serve one of many obstacles the heroine(wife) has to deal with. But it is what matters that the show is gay-themed anyway. I have never had the chance to watch the show. Maybe I will catch up with the previous episodes soon. Or not?

Maguma Taishi, Japanese bara artist

(c) 真熊太志 Recently  I put my eyes on some bara artists who regularly upload their art through Pixiv (very similar to deviantArt ). One of them is Maguma Taishi . As you can tell from his works above, he's very very talented. I don't know how to purchase any of his works but I'm trying now. Below is the site where you can get info of his doujinshi( self-published work ) works. http://doujinshi.mugimugi.org/browse/author/73838/Maguma-Taishi/
