I also added movies because i'm a nerd
-
1. Love Is a Poison
Japanese Drama - 2024, 12 episodes
LAWYER YAOIIIIIIIIII (well, it's lawyer x criminal)
this is basically what started it all for me. it's SO silly but also very fun!!!
-
2. Love in the Big City
Korean Drama - 2024, 8 episodes
this is like. the korean bl-drama magnum-opus to me. just...holy fuck!!!! it's so good and sooo bittersweet! but you definitely shouldn't watch this as your first k-bl because it would set your standards too high LOL i'm also somewhat hesistant to call it a bl-drama because this wasn't born out of a fujoshi's wet dream (says the fujoshi), it's a queer piece of art.

3. The End of the World with You
Japanese Drama - 2023, 8 episodes
I feel like you could really enjoy this!!! If you like romance that's a little complicated...it's messy, it's the end of the world after all
-
4. Love Is Better the Second Time Around
Japanese Drama - 2024, 6 episodes
I love how mature this love story is, I think that's why you would like it too!
-
5. Happy of the End
Japanese Drama - 2024, 8 episodes
this is a HEAVY watch. like I'm not kidding this has a lot of messed up things in it and the romance isn't the healthiest either but it's really good....but I won't rewatch it soon LOL (because of said reasons)
-
6. Let Me Hear It Barefoot
Japanese Movie - 2021
this movie took my breath away, like here's what I said about it in the comments...
"this is an absolute masterpiece, so so beautiful and unconventionally intimate. I loved every second of it. It's definitely my new favorite film on here. "

7. Double Mints
Japanese Movie - 2017
oh my god this movie. TOXIC YAOI....until it's not :,) the acting is so fucking good man and it looks stunningÂ
-
8. Secret Relationships
Korean Drama - 2025, 8 episodes
this one is REALLY entertaining, it's a "little" dramatic HAHA I watched it fully knowing whats going to happen between these characters and still fully enjoyed it, so I can only imagine how fun it'd be to go in blind lol
-
9. Let Free the Curse of Taekwondo
Korean Drama - 2024, 8 episodes
ohh...this one's got a little kick. this is so good, some parts are SO bittersweet. It's like dark chocolate! it's also beautifully filmed and one of the longest watches on this list! but it's definitely worth it :)
-
10. A Balloon's Landing
Taiwanese Movie - 2024
if you see people claiming that this is "bromance"....it's gay. it's very obviously gay. And it's really good! it also has a supernatural aspect to it, very exciting
-
11. Our Youth
Japanese Drama - 2024, 10 episodes
this is my absolute favourite bl-drama ever, it's beautiful and gut-wrenching and sweet and the cinematography is amazing. So on one side, I urge you to watch it and on the other it's just so frustrating because one of the lead actors is a sex offender. This drama is a work of art and it's the product of multiple, talented people so I think it would be a shame to just ignore it because of that but it would also be a valid reason regardless!
-
12. Blueming
Korean Drama - 2022, 11 episodes
oh this one is beautiful!!!!!!!!! the build-up of their relationship and the intimacy is so well-done, I love the setting, I love the characters, I love the cinematography....
-
13. Love Begins in the World of If
Japanese Drama - 2025, 6 episodes
if only this was a liiiiiittle bit longer >.< but I loved it! one of my favourite 2025 j-bl dramas
-
14. Roommates of Poongduck 304
Korean Drama - 2022, 8 episodes
this is more on the silly side but if you're up for it? a little office romance and power-abuse never did no harm!!!! (the power-abuse is mutual...how does that work? heh. come find out in the next episode of Roommates of Poongduck 304 )
-
15. Gelboys
Thai Drama - 2025, 7 episodes
I need to get my ass up and finish watching this omg. This might be one of thailands BEST bl-dramas and that's a really. REALLY crazy thing to say because thailand's bl-drama market is absolutely oversaturated.
-
16. His
Japanese Movie - 2020
a single-father and his daughter living in the countryside. enter: his ex-boyfriend. enter: the girls's mother.
this one is a sequel to the drama but you can totally watch it on its own!! it's heartwarming but also bittersweet!Â
-
17. His: I Didn't Think I Would Fall in Love
Japanese Drama - 2019, 5 episodes
this came out before the movie and it's about how the boys first met, it didn't really speak that much to me but it might be nice to watch it before or after the movie? (I watched it before)Â
I just added it so that you know about it :)
-
18. Candy Color Paradox
Japanese Drama - 2022, 8 episodes
you can definitely tell that the manga this one is based off is a little older...it's a little cringe and Kaburagi's wig is distracting but....it's peak. It's peak to ME! also I love the settingÂ
-
19. Smells Like Green Spirit
Japanese Drama - 2024, 8 episodes
it's not a bl-drama per se, it's more about queerness in general. refreshing to see a drama like that and it's really good too!
-
20. Ossan no Pants ga Nandatte Ii Janai ka!
Japanese Drama - 2024, 11 episodes
"[...] a prejudiced man in his fifties makes a gay friend more than two decades younger than him, and his "common sense" begins to change!" again, this is not a bl-drama but it's very good watch!
-
21. Weak Hero Class 1
Korean Drama - 2022, 8 episodes
sorry but I can't just NOT add it...Â
