Both shows have in common:
- are BL
- about actors, film industry and filmmaking
- falling in love within the industry and it's difficulties
- damn beautiful and clever cinematography and visual storytelling
- explicit NC scenes
- some kink here and there
differences:
Deep In is about well seasoned actors and the characters they play in a gay movie. How they get closer on cam, off cam and on set while reality and fiction melts into each other. Which they both, as assumed straight guys, struggle with a lot. It feels really like watching RPF where BL actors fall in love for real.
Payback is about a guy who wants to take revenge on his evil ex who ruined his life, who is now a popular actor. So he wants to dethrone him no matter what he has to do for it but starts with 0 knowledge about acting. It's less about acting but more about the film industries dark and ugly sides. But still has a lot of beauty and love in it. The main gets involved (and falls in love) with someone powerful and influential within the media company who helps with his revenge.
