BL Dramas, Specials, & Short Films I've Watched

These are all the BL dramas (plus some special episodes and short films) I've watched since 2017. I excluded 1) Censored BL dramas like The Untamed, 2) Dramas where the gay couple is just a side couple like Kiss Me Again, and 3) Dramas with gender swaps such as Great Men Academy.

Sorry if some of my comments are too mean but I'm genuinely tired of BLs having crappy stories and annoying characters.
