The Last Wish is the Chinese remake of the original Korean film The Last Ride. Both tell the exact same story.

- Jung So Min is the main girl in both of them
- Both main guys are somehow related to real estate (In MMH he's a real estate mogul, while in BTIMFL he just owns a home)
- Main girl is jealous they own a home in both dramas, and ends up renting from them
- Both main guys are stingy (MMH because he worked hard to get his money and in BTIMFL because he owes money on the mortgage of the house)
- Both main guys have more standoff-ish personalities
- Both are lighthearted romance dramas

BL dramas from Taiwan. One of the leads has a eccentric/strict personality while the other is on the carefree/cheerful side. Both leads have to colaborate and work together despite not liking each other very much at first. 2 couples.

BL dramas. Be Loved in House: I Do (Taiwan) / Top Secret Together (Thailand). In both the main characters work in an art/design company, one of the leads has a cold/eccentric personality because a trauma of the past while the other tries to make him open up. Multiple couples. All the characters usually hang out at the coffee shop/restaurant owned by one of the side characters.

its similar to hidden love because of the spiritual factor and connection of characters in both dramas.

The female lead in "About Time" has the ability to see people's time clock and how long they have left to live.

Hey YOU! Yes YOU! Are you seeking unconventional transgender (mtf) representation? Look no futher than these two shows! Both deal with family struggles and transphobia. Are they the best representation? Ehh that's hard to find these days. However, if you're looking for interesting stories that also include trans people, these are some dramas that are both! Imai no Kuni no Alice's character is not a lead though.

*SPOILERS*
Both follow the leads from high school to adulthood. They struggle with issues in their relationship, seperate, and then come back together. I will say, that if you watch 1 in 10,000, you should watch all three acts. The first and second act aren't very good, but I cried by the third act. Both are also queer shows, though 1 in 10,000 is intentionaly a romance that happens to be gay (between two women), and not a gay romance.

Both stories are a bizarre with extreme characters. They also deal with difficult subjects and feature complicated love triangles.

Both are dark stories that take unexpected turns! Though I will say that The Handmaiden's story is easier to follow than Old Boy.

Both stories have asshole leads who struggle with their sexuality, and helplessly in love co-leads who aren't sure if they want the protagonist. If you continue watching the I Told Sunset About You series (Last Twilight in Phuket special and I Promised You the Moon), then you also get to watch the main leads from both series age and grow over time. They also both involve homophobia, and both include bisexual characters.

Both dramas follow the lives of children and end when they are older. They're also LGBT stories that deal with being closeted and internalized homophobia.

Both stories have protagonists who are sex workers. They have a grungy and romantic element to their stories as well.

Both are queer webseries, specifically in the BL/GL genre. Meaning they're lighthearted, have shallow stories, and each has a slightly more serious element to it. I recommend them if you don't want to think too hard. They're similar in that both of them feel like they are based on webcomics. While Legend of Yun Qian is magical, Nobleman Ryu is not, though both take place in the past as a costume drama. Are either of these the best thing out there? Not really. But that doesn't matter to everyone. If you know you are easily pleased by BL/GL web series with a light hearted feel, then go for it.

These two works are queer, as in they take a look at issues within the queer community. Gay bars, and issues that are uniquely queer are explored in both works. If you're looking for something to feel a bit more connected to struggles within the community, these are good places to look. They're not masterpieces, but they are full of various queer people, making us feel seen through many different voices and experiences.

Bilitis Club in praticular focuses on women who love women, while i STORIES tells four different stories from the perspective of a trans, bisexual, gay, and lesbian perspective.
