Only Friends

Friends with benefits.

Multiple couples, messy relationships, sex is a main theme. Only Friends is higher quality in production value, Playboyy feels like a B list movie compared to OF, it's still worth a watch if you want something just as messy. Don't expect to enjoy it as much though.

Both have drama and mess
Both have lgbtq love
Both have cheating (?)
Both have 3 main couples
Both have P'Jojo as director
Both have serious concept and high heat
Both mature
Both by GMMTV
Both have stunning lead actors / actresses

it is the non nc verson of it lol

Both are Thai BL series featuring multiple couples with different dynamics within each couple. The relationships of each couple can also get quite messy with shifting alliances between the characters. Both Deep Night and Only Friends involve a group of college friends, however, the focus is on their after school activites rather than their college life.

Both BL dramas have the type of plot of messy relationships, manipulation and backstabbing among a group of university school friends.

Se*ual content and aesthetics. Overall it is the same genre, modern BL with a lot NC scenes. There is a scene in Wandee Goodday where main leads are watching a scene on television that includes main characters form Only Friends. Even covers are similar aesthetics.

Friends with benefits.
Toxic reltionships.

Queer crew, queer story, queer characters who have messy lives. Aof and Jojo wrote Gay OK Bangkok and Jojo directed it. It's a realistic story while OF is more entertainment, but we can have both.

The dynamics of main leads r very similar and the character portrayal and psychology match heavily , ray drove me crazy when he tried to own sand but loved mew just like ming loves tong but considers joe as a replace.

Ps. Only friends is the harem of kissing everybody so avoide shipping any couple with too much craze.

Also the chemistry is just solid GOOD ( in Only friends ), they truelly deliver LUST during their fun time

Similar dark and messy BL drama with changing relationships and toxic traits. In Secret Relationship, the main character has romantic entanglements with 3 different guys while in Only Friends, there are 3 main set couples with entanglements between them.

similarities:
- thai bl
- secret crush trope
- produced by gmmtv
- characters in university
- same main leads (book plookphol and force srisang)
- many love interests which causes complications

differences:
- “only friends” depicts darker themes (drinking, drugs, nudity) that aren’t present in “enchantè,” which is fairly lighthearted
- though there are many love interests in both, those in “only friends” have more screen time
- one side couple in “only friends” has the friends-with-benefits trope
- in “enchantè,” one lead is rich
- in “only friends,” book’s character studies business while in “enchantè” he pursues english

similarities
- firstkhaotung

differences
- everything. both show has no similarities other than having fk as main leads.

tho its an ensemble, only friends is firstkhaotung's best work and the show is too good in general so HIGHLY recommended.

-Thai drama
-Produced by GMMTV
-Messy friends group concept
-You have no idea who will end up with whom
-Great cast [Ohm, Film, Nani, Piploy, Satang, Phuwin]
-Straight version of Only Friends
