In both of these BL short films, two guys come together on a hot day for a study session - that proves short-lived.

Both of these short BL stories center around moments of studying - with one ML being more studious, and the other being more distracted. They both appear to be friends-to-lovers dynamics, but Skip School takes place after the leads have already started a relationship together.

Both Thai queer romances feature a budding romance between 2 newfound college roommates - one of which expresses a lot of homophobia and animosity towards the other in the beginning and seeks to switch rooms. Their relationship consists of a lot of back-and-forwards and playing coy with each other. The homophobic lead's family is also relevant in both of these franchises. And jealousy plays an integral role in the leads' relationship development.

One lead is from humble rural origins. One lead likes to play music. There's a prominent plot point of one taking care of the other. One of the leads also apparently lacks the ability to read a room (which plays more into TharnType 2 as a source of conflict, but still very reminiscent of each other).

They differ in that homophobia in Yes or No is largely restrained to microaggressions, while TharnType is much more aggressive. Tharntype also has more triggery and problematic content, while Yes or No tends to focus more on cute moments.

These are two workplace BLs that feature a romance between the team manager and a younger subordinate. Both of these character-driven dramas focus on a male lead who's become quite depressed with life and has settled for a monotonous routine of work, home, and sleep. That is until the other male lead comes in and re-introduces him to the "colorfulness" of the world.

Both stories feature a trio of close friends, a minor/relatively un-angsty love triangle, and the concerns of the MCs as they return, years later, to their friends (and first love) after ftm sexually transitioning upon realizing they were intersex.

Both dramas feature one lead who has been in love with the other for years, but after taking a certain amount of abuse from the him, have decided to give up on their love and move on. It is at this point that the other lead realizes their own love and tries to win them back.

Both series have a happy ever after ending that may make viewers wondering if the ML deserves it.

Both of these dramas feature a couple who starts off in a marriage not born of love that quickly turns dysfunctional (or abusive in the case of MMLY) due to misunderstandings/assumptions. The Female lead falls first in both of these shows. Both dramas feature a dysfunctional family on the FL's side.

MAJOR SPOILERS:
Both dramas feature the leads having a child that the ML does not know about due to circumstances that led to divorce. As well as a male best friend that is presumed by the ML to be the father.

And despite all, the both end in complete happy ever afters for the leads.

Both dramas center on the development of romance between a cold-attitude, warm-hearted ML and a dedicated, passionate FL who sees the best in everybody and is given the chance to explore another path in her career thanks to a project from the ML/her boss.

Both feature a prominent ex storyline, brief professional blunders, a foggy ML backstory that gets cleared up later in the story, a loving family, and a side romances featuring the ML's brother.

Neither of these BL, starring Yoon, are meant to be taken seriously. But where Unforgotten Night reminds of an amateur Wattpad novel with adult themes, YYY goes about it on a wacky manner that’s not unlike old kids shows. Regardless though, if you like Yoon or want a show to turn your brain off to, either of these dramas would be a good fit.

These are both Blued advertisements/short productions that tell a story of two men connecting through the Blued gay social app and finding out that their paths have crossed in reality as well.

Both of these korean BL miniseries focus on a grounded romance story between a young reserved chef and a disillusioned celebrity/celebrity-hopeful seeking respite. In these stories, the romance presents inspiration to both leads as well a conflict originating from the leads' different personalities.

While quite different story and vibe wise, episode 4 of One Night Morning tackles a relationship with a FL with a stutter and the perceived lack of control and misunderstandings that the stutter and social fear may have inspired with the ML (who tends to give off a very intimidating/cold delinquent-like vibe to others). These elements remind of the two male leads in My Beautiful Man.
