About the speakers

The Fu Court

A specialty BL shop in Hong Kong serving the needs of the fujoshi and fudanshi community. They also run a BL YouTube Channel and Patreon, with the mission of brightening the lives BL-enthusiasts in the city.

 

Diane

Co-runs The Fu Court, and occasional hypestress at Jengs Records. She majored in politics and business administration (and double-minored in Japanese Cultural Studies and Japanese out of boredom). She planned on becoming an ordinary Central PR OL, but couldn’t help but become a ‘rotten girl’ anyways and is trying to carve out a path in the arts and erotica. She enjoys music, writing, and critique (intermittently), and nourishes her intellect with whisky and BL.

 

Maron

Co-runs The Fu Court and is its mascot. AKA Crystal Ball, Octopus, among others. She is the founder of the Hong Kong-based oendan Dark Wings. A faithful follower of Ranmaru Zariya, she falls asleep every night listening to the sound of moaning men (BL drama CDs). She enjoys event management and organising fan rallies, and subsists on adrenaline and BL.

 

Konnie

Co-runs The Fu Court, is a BL author and full-time fujoshi. With an over-stimulated imagination and phantom limb, she began drawing at a young age. She intervenes in society with her art and imagination as a way of carving out her own space in Hong Kong. She’s into younger tops; kinks include bondage.
