BL philosophy:

BL is a guilty pleasure.
Know your kink. People who kink-shame can go hang.
BL rankings are obviously measured on a different scale
There are not many second seasons on the list, I am a foreplay sort of person ;)
A green flag is a red flag, no?
The important thing with GMMTV is knowing what not to watch.

BL facts:

Lipgloss in Thailand is no joke
Fashion in Taiwanese BLs is questionable
All lists must have 3 points XD

Thing to do while watching a BL:

Making up a job description for the guy who chooses the in-drama profile pictures for LINE / WeChat
Spotting IKEA knick-knacks in drama

Some great BLs came out 2023/2024 so there is some major rearrangement taking place.

I recently watched the VietnameseBL 'Teenager Judge' which was insanely strong: 20 eps with no lull, rich story, mean character depth and growth and the romance and acting were brilliant. The topic was not for the faint hearted and it was gut wrenchingly sad at times, but I was deeply impressed with the actors. Certainly, it was better than many GMMTV productions which often have the nutritional value of cream puffs. In any case, I could hardly believe the traction of the story throughout the 20 eps was consistent and had me on the edge of my seat. I shall check out more of 02 Productions, they seem to be struggeling financially, and they deserve more attention!

201. Be Loved in House: I Do

Taiwanese Drama - 2021, 12 episodes

3.5

It's cheap, and cringey. The story is ridiculous and the acting very stiff. Watch this if you want to be cheered up and smile at how bad this is.
202. My Stubborn

Thai Drama - 2025, 12 episodes

3.0

10 out of 10 for the intro and the STAIRCASE OF LOVE.
Top: hiring a porn movie director as an advisor.
Flop: literally everything else: Sorn's ego trip, Jun is obviously not able to consent to the kind of power dynamic Sorn's creating. we are told he likes Sorn, but other than the F*** it is not claer why. Then, on multiple (!) occasions we see Jun is not even enjoying that, so what is the point?
And the GL story is the worst I have seen todate (dead fish meets Barbie)
203. 609 Bedtime Story

Thai Drama - 2022, 11 episodes

3.0

dnf. Fluke is so typecast in his PJs, it made me sad. I usually like paradox timey-wimey plots, but I got hella confused here and wasn't invested enough to figure it out. Maybe if they'd given this more temporal room, now it's just instalove with a time-shift twist.
204. Therapy Game

Japanese Drama - 2025, 9 episodes

4.0

strong start. Then dnf.
205. Cutie Pie

Thai Drama - 2022, 12 episodes

dnf.
Should have been been Saint x Zee. Unfortunately script like a fanfic of a 12-year old, if you can't find a better cliffhanger than Zee looking at you like he will eat you right up, you really really really have nothing to say.
206. Secret Lover

Taiwanese Drama - 2025, 10 episodes

they just skipped the whole built up.
207. Sunset x Vibes: Uncut Version

Thai Drama - 2024, 12 episodes

dnf. this is definitely not a bingeable show.
High production but so far It's sadly going to lengthen my already overly long list of mediocre BLs which seems to be a specialty in Thaïland. Not great, not fun, but watchable when you have some time to waste.
The shy virgin trope with the vanilla plot is just too much. The novel it is based on is supposedly basically porn. Not sure that would have been better.
208. Baker Boys

Thai Drama - 2021, 12 episodes

dnf.
Remake of Japanese original. This role does not fit Singto to a t. He's just too teddy bear to pull off the irresistible gay conquerer. I wish I could give this a higher rating...
209. My Sweet Dear

Korean Drama - 2021, 8 episodes

2.5

dnf. Foody BL. Interesting dynamic. #AbsBeforeEp3

211. Bite Me

Thai Drama - 2021, 11 episodes

dnf. the speed of this is positively glacial and the chemisty is equally frosty. But the foodporn and music are nice
212. Happy of the End

Japanese Drama - 2024, 8 episodes

2.5

the japanese really have no filter.
child abuse galore. yes there are 2 men in a relationship but really that's not the point. this is not bl.
213. YYY

Thai Drama - 2020, 6 episodes

dnf. oh lord. I can't even. Sooo overacted.
214. Perfect 10 Liners

Thai Drama - 2024, 24 episodes

dnf. I barely managed 4minutes of this. I thought it might be watchable bc of Perth but really I cannot. Book&Force are a deal breaker for me.
