If anyone wants a strong bromance / BL drama with friendship, now I want to recommend The Spirealm! I just finished this drama recently, and wow, it was incredible! I don't rate dramas a 10 often, but this one I couldn't help to. I was hooked from the very first episode!
There is a virtual reality game where the main characters enter and go through 12 doors (we don't see all 12, but every door seen is worth it). As they go thru each level, each level gets harder. All doors have door ghosts that have a back story, which makes it even more fun. The main characters go thru the doors (but one for MC's experience) together. They grow a lot as they try to pass each door. The friends they made outside the door will also come with them to pass doors. It's so much fun. It's also really scary bc you don't know what could happen! There are also some crazy plot twists that I still can't believe it! If anyone decides to watch this, have fun! It'll be a rollercoaster of emotions!!
Would like to add that one of the main characters is Xia Zhiguang. He starred with Neo Hou in Dashing Youth and they shared a cute bromance in this drama too. Now that the two have strong bromance (or should I say their own BL 😆) dramas of their own, it makes me wanna see them two in one together but as the main main characters this time.
Anyways, I highly recommend! Will say this drama was adapted from a BL novel and actually did well with what they had to make this drama! We're lucky to have this as even censored BLs are not allowed in China.
(Sorry, that was so long again! My apologies as I tend to write a lot!)
