Boys love stories with an unpopular, insecure, assertive × popular guy pairing
Relationship is a kept a secret

Short, low budget korean boys love dramas that are absolute hot messes with lots of (unintended) incoherence and ridiculousness. Maybe worth a laugh, to watch with your friends

* Actor Ryan Ren plays the primary love interest in both shows
* The female lead hides who she truly is from Ryan Ren's character. She gets to know the MML under a fake name/alias (marry him in her place) and while working right under his nose (love on the edge of divorce)

If you liked one you might like the other as well since they share those themes of falling in love under the guise of something else, yk the fake love turns real and hidden identity love. Or if you liked the MML

"The world average age for the first sexual experience... 17.3". Is that early? Late? Seino Sakura has a serious personality. Hara Tsumugi has never liked a member of the opposite sex before. Minagawa Yuna is experienced and is currently dating a company employee. At the age of 17, the girl's "sexual values" begin to fluctuate.

Both series share the exact same vibe: a perfect mix of laugh-out-loud comedy, heartwarming romance, and some incredibly hot, high-chemistry scenes. The dynamic between the main leads is top-tier in both!

The main characters in Born to Run and My Mr. Ostrich both face life changing disabilities one loses both legs, while the other loses an arm. Both dramas explore their struggles, growth, and how they learn to adapt and move forward.

Both are about a group of guys running a grocery-type store although the type of challenges they face are different.

Trust me, LOL.
They actually have quite a few similarities:
The main couple has really good chemistry.
Their relationship starts off rocky, but they gradually build a much stronger bond.
There are some more similarities, but you should watch to find out.

Both The Bangkok Boy and Ash have a similar dark, gritty vibe. Both mix BL romance with crime, violence, revenge, secrets, and dangerous relationships. The couples come from very different worlds, and their romance develops while they are surrounded by criminals and conflict.

The main difference is that The Bangkok Boy focuses more on gangs and revenge, while Ash focuses on an undercover police officer and organized crime.

True Beauty also deals with issues of low self-image and learning to love yourself despite society's standards. It's also top-notch comedy which is always a win!

If you enjoyed Pull Strings, I highly recommend The Immortal Ascension. I’m only three episodes into Pull Strings, so I can’t say they are exactly the same, but they are already giving me a very similar feeling. Both main characters seem to be on a journey of gradual progression, even when the drama doesn’t always show every step of their development directly. They also have a habit of getting involved in situations they never actually asked for, yet somehow they always end up caught in the middle of things. Along the way, they meet women who become interested in them, adding another layer to their journey. The biggest similarity for me is watching an ordinary-looking man slowly become more capable while navigating unexpected situations. If you enjoyed that kind of progression and adventure in Pull Strings, The Immortal Ascension is definitely worth trying.

However, I do want to give a warning: The Immortal Ascension is not exactly a high-quality production. If you are expecting huge CGI, beautiful costumes, or extremely polished visuals, you probably won’t get that here. It also doesn’t have the usual time-travel or space-travel elements you might expect from some fantasy dramas. Instead, it has its own unique style and story, and that is actually part of what makes it interesting to me. So don’t go into it expecting a visually spectacular production; go into it for the journey, the progression, the situations the main character gets dragged into, and the uniqueness of the story.
