TextField default text not populate to MySQL data when migrate — at Version 1

Description (last modified by Edgenius)

When adding 2 new fields, one is CharField and another is TextField, they both nullable with default value: 

subject2 = models.CharField(max_length=512, blank=True, null=True, default="Some text")
body2 = models.TextField(blank=True, null=True, default="Some text")

After migration in MySQL 8.0.19, for existing data, new CharField column populate that default "Some text" value. However, TextField is just null. This inconsistent behaviour is very confusing.

Django version is 3.2.5.
