TPD - main dynamic (first few episodes) | ADltTL - secondary dynamic
- Scholar turned minister ML
- Princess royal FL (SFL in ADltTL)
- Princess abducts ML and keeps him as her slave/plaything
- Black Flag FL/SFL
- Vengeful and crazy FL/SFL
- Short-length and beautifully shot historical cdramas

Main differences lie in the fact that ML and FL in TPD have beef while in ADltTL, SFL is just infatuated with ML. Because of this, ML in TPD is far more submissive than ML in ADltTL. ADltTL's main romance is very healthy.

Plots are very different, with LaL being a workplace romcom and QYBDHYG being a rich people melodrama, but the dynamic between the leads was similar in the role-reversed BDSM aspect. FL is the dominant one while ML is the submissive one, and their BDSM dynamic is explored 'platonically' first and then develops into romance later.

In QYBDHYG the dynamic is more master/pet and naturally more dubious with its consent, which was handled very well in LaL, but since there's so little RR BDSM dynamics, I thought of recommending this one here.

Both stories also featured a lot of role reversal aside of the BDSM aspect.

- Femdom x malesub
- FL tames ML but he likes it
- Bold, flirty and protective FL
- Shy and submissive ML (more aloof in BbS)
- FL is a rich heiress
- Fight for inheritance
- Both are melodramatic and not very good plot-wise
- Gender role reversal in both
- Master FL x Plaything ML (pet in QYBDHYG, bodyguard in BbS)

QYBDHYG did the role reversal a lot better than BbS but in BbS the dynamic is more *intimate* than in QYBDHYG. QYBDHYG has the fantasy element that BbS does not. BbS is more 'realistic' and plot-focused while QYBDHYG is just pure entertainment.

Couldn't help but keep thinking of "Run On" while watching this special. Both deal with a main character who moves on from a previous field (idol in DSS15:FH, pro athlete in RO) onto a new stage in life. Both are mature and heartfelt.
The ML also reminds me a lot of Yim Si Wan which definitely helped.

- Matriarchy setting
- Gender role reversal
- Flirty FL x Tsundere ML
- FL chases ML first

Plots are quite different, but the vibes are similar.

- Matriarchy setting
- Thorough gender role reversal
- Cool, supportive FL x Quirky, cute ML
- Both FLs are gentlewoman types
- Both MLs are atypical and have to become coquettish to seduce FL

Though the settings are different, I couldn't help but think of TOHoMaY while watching FMMTDXHL because the role reversal and matriarchy aspects are so well done in both.

- Arranged/forced marriages where the MLs marry into FL's family (matriarchy in FMMTDXHL, patriarchy in MLG)
- Both MLs are quirky and coquettish (in MLG he's more scheming while in FMMTDXHL he isn't)
- Both FLs are strong, tough warriors
- Gender role reversal in both

- FL is a criminal (assassin in A,tFW, swindler in BL)
- FL is being persecuted by a psycho
- Both leads have a crazy/crazier dynamic
- FL is cold and aloof, while ML is more animated
- ML has a crush on FL (mutual in A,tFW, one-sided in BL)
- Both stories are dark and gritty
- Bittersweet stories

Both leads crossdress and marry each other in disguise. In SL, FL doesn't crossdress for long while in YLYXG, it seems that they're both crossdressing consistently.

- Older man/younger woman
- ML is the emperor's brother
- Both MLs seem cold and aloof but are actually gentle and sweet
- ML has a chronic illness that FL helps cure
- Resourceful and cunning FL
- Power

Plots are different.

- FL tortured and killed by her husband and sister
- FL is reborn and seeks revenge
- Both FLs are strong, reserved, and cunning
- ML seems cold and aloof but he's actually gentle and sweet
- ML is older than FL
- Somewhat taboo romance (in TFFStF he's her ex-fiance's uncle while in RFTA he's pretending to be her uncle)
- Smart and cunning power couple

Both are Japanese movies focused on romance with a disabled ML. Both movies are well-made with an intimate, raw feel and a tender and wholesome romance. If you wanted Blind Mind to be longer, I strongly recommend giving See Hear Love a try!

In SHL:MmKmA, FL is disabled too, while in BM, she's not.
