C-HK-TW BL, Bromance, Censored Adaptations & Homo Subtext
This list comprises dramas and movies of Chinese origin in its ancient, broad and/or linguistic sense (China + Hong Kong + Taiwan) concerning boy love (BL), bromance, censored adaptations of male same-sex works, and whatever more comes close to that, which is, for instance, the case of homosexual subtext and gay male love.
The ones I've seen are ranked on top of the list, and, consequently, the ones I'm looking forward to see follow right below.
Feel free to recommend me any other that fits in here!! ;)
