- high school setting
- the ml of both are "loners". In color rush, the ml is starting at a new school and he's different from everybody else/ isn't really interested in friends.
- are both shorter episodes/ miniseries
- the ml and second ml both kinda rely/ need each other
- They are fluffier or leave you happy but also both deal with very series topics and can get deep.
- both bl
- lots of flirty swoonworthy moments
- just give me very similar feelings

It is a cute romance of the two male leads... and them finding out their true feeling and accepting one another

They aren't really that similar, but the main characters of Light on Me did a Cameo on Best mistake, (Episode 4). Both are really cute short shows though, and worth the watch.
Recommended by Ilikebooks
Both are short BLs with a school settings in which the MLs meet by bumping into each other and dislike each other at first.

Also has 3 male characters interested in 1 guy; however, Light on Me is set in high school/gentler than Secret Relationships.
Recommended by BL Compilations
Not that these two shows are super similar but they take place in the same universe.

Although Light On Me first shows up in season 3 of Best Mistake, you need to have seen all the 2 prior seasons, of Best Mistake, to understand most season 3. Because of that, I recommend you start with Best Mistake season 1.

Also both
Takes place in a school
Are about young people finding their identities/themselves
Recommended by Fennisflame
The main leads banter with each other in the whole series in a similar way.
Rak Diao or One love is an amazing sitcom with love hate relationship
