Yaoi/shounen-ai is Japan.

But BL is the terms used most SEA countries to describe this genre of show and it's definitely not Japan specific. In fact, Japan is likely one of the countries that actually doesn't use the term BL as much because they have other terms for it.

But in Thailand, Korea, Vietnam, Taiwan, China... it's called BL. Like, literally the two English letters. Taiwan a little less because it's more queer media there and the Philippines varies between queer and BL as the term but no, it's not a Japan thing at all.

Now, it gets more questionable if you call things NOT out of SEA BL because that's a bigger question of terms, culture, intent... but that's a can of worms I've discussed enough to know that there is no answer for that.

Korea, Taiwan, China and Japan aren't part of SEA... They're just EA.

Yeah, I did shorthand that a bit. I was originally more focused on Thailand where the term BL really grew from and then added the others without going back and fully editing/auditing my thoughts. My bad!
