'BJ Alex' Comic review
BJ Alex, a comic by the talented and dynamic Mingwa, began releasing its first chapters in November of 2017, and finished up mid 2020. With a total of 89 chapters including all the trimmings, I would consider it a medium to long webcomic series, with plenty of extras for anyone wanting just that little bit more. The comic starts by introducing us to the sweet and shy Nam Dong-gyun, a university student that has completed his military service and works part-time in a nearby cafe. Dong-gyun, despite being seemingly innocent, has an obsession unmatched by any BL bottom I've seen before-he's totally in love with a cam boy. 'BJ', or 'broadcasting jokey' is a title given to those in Korea who stream live on online broadcasting platforms for hundreds to millions of viewers. Alex, the most popular BJ on 'NutworkTV', produces a live show where he enagages viewers with racy stories and explicit solo content. Famed for being the sexiest BJ on the site, Alex collects donations in the thousands from his committed viewership, one of which happens to be the not-so-innocent Dong-gyun.

Vocal Book Club: Trust by Hernan Diaz . Top Story - February 2024.
In Yuval Noah Harari’s Sapiens (published in English in 2014) we are reminded of how much fiction underpins our lives. Fiction, Harari argues, is one of the great engines of culture. Religion is a story many choose, collectively, to believe: it is the story that creates culture and cohesion. He uses the example of a brand — Peugeot — to enquire how we imbue fictions with significance. What connection can anyone now make between a company founded in the early 19th century with the car manufacturer of today? What does the “Peugeot” symbol on the front of an automobile signify? There’s one answer: a story. Perhaps you buy the car because, at some level, you believe the story.
