BL for youth

First of its kind Filipino BL story set during Covid-19 pandemic. First 10 episodes recorded by the cast in their own homes to their phones. Charming and very talented young actors (just the fact that they played off of each other without even seeing the other person) Very current and important topics. I cried so much... NETFLIX and Idea First Company's YouTube channel. Philippines

 Wow! It was one of my favorites! Very symbolic (each line, each set up has a meaning), with one of the best OST. YouTube; From Philippines

Thailand's biggest hit of last year. Very cute rom com, with very good looking main leads. GMMTV 

YouTube channel. Thailand

Even better continuation of 2gether. YouTube. Thailand

META-BL; all couples are great, especially one side couple (you will know right away which one); light rom-com; first three episodes very over the top, but it gets better and better as the season progresses.  Main couple looses steam half way in to the series, but other couples pick it up. YouTube. Thailand

Chinese bromance based on BL novel. Completely above rankings of any kind. One year after watching it and still occupying most of my heart. I don't even know how many times I've watched it, discovering new things. So much crying. Netflix, WeTv, or WeTv channel on YouTube. China

Still ongoing. Somewhat similar category as The Untamed, but less censored. Totally amazing! Fabulous chemistry, acting, story (based on a BL novel, but expanded). There is so much content online connected to the show. When watching either The Untamed or The Word of Honor, you need to watch correlating videos (behind the scenes, queer symbolism that escaped censorship, lip reading videos - shows are overdubbed). Youku channel on YouTube. China

Great chemistry, right amount of fluff, cuteness, angst, and drama. VIKI. South Korea

Ach... Too short. Movie version better than series. No cut scenes, everything made so much more sense. Great chemistry but the music sealed the deal. 2 leads singing the OST??? YES!!!!

NETFLIX and VIKI. South Korea

AWWWWWW..... Too cute, too short. VIKI. South Korea

My first K-BL. Forever my favorite. Coming of age story with great chemistry and amazing 

OST. VIKI. South Korea

I am sucker for a red thread myth. Full of cuteness and fluff. Amazing chemistry and visuals. 

One action towards the end was so out of character that it made me "eeh??" Maybe it will be   resolved in the movie version. VIKI. South Korea

Such a unique concept!! Visual treat! VIKI (both series and movie versions). South Korea

Taiwanese BL. Volley ball players! Super cute and short. On VIKI. There are more HiStory series on VIKI (each season has few stories; right now, it's on a first story of season 4, but that season is for mature audience)

Great story, acting, interesting couples (but not the third couple!). Great start to Asian BL. On YouTube and Viki. Thailand

Very unusual plot. I cried on a every single episode. Second couple is totally amazing! They are about to start making their series. YouTube, TV Line. Thailand

AMAZING; breaks your heart, but puts it back together. VIKI. Japan

Similar concept to GameBoys (social distancing). Just as cute. Black Sheep YouTube channel. 

Philippines

One of the classic Thai BL's. Interesting plot, cute. (There is also 2nd season: SOTUS S; also good). NETFLIX and YouTube. Thailand

Very recent. Great plot, acting, and chemistry. GMMTV YouTube channel. Thailand

It's been one of my favorites bl dramas of this year. Lovely acting, chemistry out of this world, 

simple but very gripping story. Taiwan. On WeTv
