My Stand-In (2024)

Both are BLs based around the film industry .both have leads who are actors .
In both one of the lead is very sure of their feelings while the other is kinda confused

Diff is that "my stand in" has a very toxic lead and Doormat of another lead.
In 25 ji ,both the characters r nice .but overall it's kinda boring .

both has:
- same yyds production house
- same director
- same cinematographer
- love story involving soul, body and memory transfer
- story where parents are against main pair
- ml's of both are total opposites of each other. one is the reddest flag and other one is reddest flag.

-Thai Bls
-Debt
-Kidnapping/being held captive
-Stunt doubles/actor fields
-One main lead struggling financially

Meet You at the Blossom is an upcoming drama adapted from a novel by Shui Qian Cheng, the same author as My Stand In.

The dynamics of main leads r very similar and the character portrayal and psychology match heavily , ray drove me crazy when he tried to own sand but loved mew just like ming loves tong but considers joe as a replace.

Ps. Only friends is the harem of kissing everybody so avoide shipping any couple with too much craze.

The similarity between My Stand-In and Love Mechanics lied in the sexual relationship between two men in which one of them love another person that caused the MC sad and tormented. Both MC were quick at recognizing affection and rejection, while both ML were not willing to choose between MC and their love interests and confused about their own feeling for quite long. The difference was in My Stand-In the MC was not in love with anyone when starting a relationship with ML, while in Love Mechanics the drunk MC thought he slept with his love interest at that moment after being broken-hearted by his love interest's confession to another person. The ML in My Stand-In was selfish and obsessed, while in Love Mechanics the ML was kind and soft-hearted.

You want another toxic/abusive/gaslighting relationship, Skip a Beat is for you. The ML and FL were both toxic, maybe the ML was physical, but the FL played so many mind games and was WRONG about everything. The twist had me in a tizzy! ENJOY

The angst of feeling like someone who is a "stand-in" and is just a replacement was prominent in both the shows

Even though it's not a BL the plot is similar
-the FL enter a new body
-she came back with the idea to reconnect with her loved one's
- there's revenge against her lover
- she goes back to her previous workplace

Both Thai BL's about an incident that causes a Main Character to wake up in someone else's body. Vice Versa is a bit more Vanilla as it is 13+, whereas My Stand-In is 18+ and shows many more toxic situations and explicit content.

First of all they have the same crew such as director, cinematographer etc... and therefore the colour grading, and the cinematography is similar. Second of all both the series are exciting in the same way I have not seen in any other BLS. I think Kinnporsche is the closest recommendation you can give to someone who've loved My Stand in...

Both has LGBTQ characters and body swapping plots .
Difference is that in kamisama the body swapped character comes back as a female.

- MC gets into an accident and gets transmigrated into the body of another person
- MC was betrayed by 'their lover' before accident but is forced to meet them again after transmigration
- Different is that in My Stand-In is not a revenge story but Game Rak Patihan will be about MC making a revenge

Wellll how do I put this.. If you like the red flag in a ML then watch this one..
Both have a red flag ML who uses the other. In BGMB, he hurts him on purpose due to "jealousy" I guess... we don't know a whole lot about him yet (this is ongoing as I'm writing this..) and in "My Stand In" the ML uses him to satisfy his own needs.

Either way.. if you like that red flag romance where your heart hurts for the other, and later get to watch them make up for their mistakes..... I'd recommend watching the other.
