Part sincere appreciation and part tongue-in-cheek spoof, Haikus With Hotties is a calendar series that highlights attractive and talented Asian men in media that often don’t get as much attention as they deserve. After the series launched in 2013 with Godfrey Gao, Haikus With Hotties released its first calendar in 2016 after a successful Kickstarter campaign featuring Yoshi and Peter Sudarso.

The following year brought a second calendar with a new twist: “From the makers of Haikus With Hotties now comes Haikus on Hotties.” And in 2018, the fans are invited to participate in the fun and write Haikus for Hotties. What started out as a joke has become a nice excuse to feature a variety of Asian American men doing interesting things in the media.
