- thai bl

- “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

My Secret Boyfriend looks just as messy as Only Friends. Multiple relationships and lying to each other. But the mess is so so good.

this drama also revolves around 4 friends and their linked love life. the drama has many things to connect as it makes us understand the difference between a friend and a lover

Both series show flawed characters and include toxic relationships where one party wants something else than the other party (usually friendship X love X sex), so there is a lot of jealousy and suffering.

Both series are bl and from the same company (GMMTV). Also they have the same main characters First Kanaphan, Khaotung Tanawat and Neo Trai.

Both are thai dramas with multiple main characters who become involved in a messy entanglement of relationships. Unrequited crushes, leading each other on, toxicity, sexual tension.

similar plot
same director

both are very messy and also sad (the main characters love stories) too much os happening but its still addicting but revenged love has a sad+happy ending. sad for the viewers but happy for the characters

The same director. The Characters have similar problems and toxic traits.
