Next Thai-Filipino BL Series? γ°οΈ
Okay, y'all... I am officially in shock! π€―
I woke up this morning to see my notifications absolutely exploding. What started as a simple 26-second clip of a heartwarming moment between two pole vaultersβEJ Obiena from the Philippines and Patsapong Amsam-ang from Thailandβhas become a massive viral sensation across every platform.
As an independent filmmaker, Iβm used to working hard for every view, but this? This was something else. Letβs look at the "insane" numbers you guys helped me reach:
The Viral Breakdown π
TikTok (3.3M Views)
With 336K likes, nearly all the reach (98.4%) came from the 'For You' page.
X/Twitter (1.4M Views)
My post reached over 1.4 million people, and the engagement was so high that I couldn't help but tease: "I've got the plot for a new series now!".
Instagram & Facebook:
Even on Instagram, the reels reached over 100,000 views, proving that this energy is universal.
Beyond the Competition:
Respect for the Game πΉππ΅π
The SEA Games 2025 aren't just a place where we compete or complain about which country "cheated" or which officiating was "unfair". Behind the intensity of the competition, there is so much love and a positive vibe that the cameras don't always capture.
Seeing EJ Obiena (who won gold and set a new record) and Patsapong Amsam-ang (who took silver and celebrated with a backflip) embracing on the mat shows the true heart of professional athletes. These people work their asses off. I have so much respect for those who do it for their own country. Whether you win or lose, doing it for your nation is a huge dealβitβs the most precious thing a person can do.
Losing is Learning to Grow π±
As an audience, I know we feel upset when our own country loses. But one thing we need to remember is that we need to lose sometimes so we can learn to grow. No one is born a winner from the beginning. Take this viral moment as a reminder for the next time you face a competition.
And trust me, no one paid me to write this! If people actually paid me to write positive articles like this, Iβd be rich by now π. I know thereβs been a lot of drama this year, but thereβs also a lot of love too.
The Best Fans in the World π³οΈβπ
This video doesn't just show the impact of BL fansβwho are the best fan group in my opinionβbut it shows we donβt have to be enemies when it comes to competition. We are friends, and sometimes that relationship can develop into something more... maybe even "boyfriends" π₯°π.
The Sign Iβve Been Waiting For? π¬
When I posted, "I've got the plot for a new series," I wasn't just joking. The chemistry, the sportsmanship, and the international vibe between Thailand and the Philippines have sparked a massive creative flame for me at Commetive By Aam.
I want to know what YOU think. If I were to turn this "Thai-Pinoy" sportsmanship vibe into a full-length BL series:
What should the title be?
Which tropes do we absolutely need to include?
Stay tuned... because the next big project from Commetive By Aam might just be inspired by these 26 seconds.
