Taiwan is gearing up to launch two highly anticipated BL dramas this August, with ‘First Note of Love’ and ‘The On1y One’ set to premiere soon!
On August 8, GagaOOLala, the global LGBTQ+ media platform, announced that ‘The On1y One’ will be available for streaming starting August 22. This twelve-episode series, featuring Liu Dong Qin and Benjamin Tsang, is adapted from Mu Su Li’s popular novel, which has garnered over a billion views. The drama is helmed by Patrick Liu, the acclaimed director of Taiwan’s highest-grossing LGBTQ film, “Your Name Engraved Herein.”
Later that same day, a brief teaser was released, showcasing the budding romance between two stepbrothers. The teaser has generated a range of fan reactions, with many drawing parallels to the “stepbrother to lover” theme seen in dramas like “Addicted/Heroin” and “Stay With Me.” You can watch the 30-second teaser here:
SYNOPSIS: Jiang Tian, a bright but introverted student, lives with his mother until his world is upended by the arrival of Sheng Wang, a charismatic and wealthy new student. Their rivalry takes a surprising turn when Sheng Wang’s father decides to marry Jiang Tian’s mother, making them stepbrothers. As they navigate their new relationship, their growing respect for each other slowly evolves into a forbidden attraction.
‘The On1y One’ is set to premiere on August 22 with a double-episode release and will continue with one new episode every Wednesday and Thursday at 8 PM GMT+8 on GagaOOLala worldwide, excluding Japan and South Korea.
