Emmy's Cool BL Recommendations

Of course....this is my list and you don't have to agree with me. I'm very very particular with the media I consume but these shows in particular make me feel some type of way...in an attempt to be fair I'll try to say WHY I like  them instead of just telling you they're worth the watch. To be fair...none of these are explicit shows. I don't watch explicit romance so...don't expect me to recommend anything crazy cause that's just not my type of show to begin with.

    1. Semantic Error

    Korean Drama - 2022, 8 episodes

    9.5

    My go-to rewatch show. It's not too short, but not too long. I like the enemies to lovers trope and I found both characters to be enjoyable despite their flaws.

  • The Time of Fever

    2. The Time of Fever

    Korean Drama - 2024, 6 episodes

    9.0

    I will preface this by saying you should watch Unintentional Love Story before you watch this. As Time of Fever is a prequel. BUT this show felt so comfy...knowing the characters from ULS made my initial watch much more complete and fulfilling since you're learning more about them.

  • Jack o' Frost

    3. Jack o' Frost

    Japanese Drama - 2023, 6 episodes

    8.5

    I will not stop telling people how much I love this show. From the acting to the characters...it's one I tend to rewatch because I find it so compelling. Though...I am a sucker for angst.

  • Utsukushii Kare

    4. Utsukushii Kare

    Japanese Drama - 2021, 6 episodes

    8.5

    This show and it's sequel have such a grip on me....the characters hurt me so much but I can't help but understand their struggles (seek therapy). 

  • A Shoulder to Cry On

    5. A Shoulder to Cry On

    Korean Drama - 2023, 7 episodes

    8.0

    I love this show. I love the visuals, the characters, the music, the story....I will recommend this to people for as long as I'm breathing.

  • Color Rush

    6. Color Rush

    Korean Drama - 2020, 8 episodes

    8.0

    My favorite red flag couple. They're kinda...awful to each other? Also very cliche tiktok aah premise but I don't care.

  • Bokura no Shokutaku

    7. Bokura no Shokutaku

    Japanese Drama - 2023, 10 episodes

    8.5

    Would watch again. Very simple, comforting show. I just like it. Nothing terribly angsty. Nothing giving major red flags. Just something nice.

  • Unintentional Love Story

    8. Unintentional Love Story

    Korean Drama - 2023, 10 episodes

    8.5

    I thought to myself "I won't put this on the list" but here I am. When people say the side characters are more compelling than the protags they're half right. I do like the side characters a LOT (see my ramble about Time of Fever) but I do like the protags as well...I'd watch it again.
