Well, the actor who plays as a mother in both of the series is the same and you'll probably feel the same energy she had with MHIL ahaha. And of course this has the same genre which is forced marriage/pregnancy so you might want to give it a try.

Similar vibes, slow and "sad". In "chocolate" characters were not a couple before as in "BOL" but there are also time gaps. Both are melodrama. Both have flashbacks.

Basically, it's similar story. Start with school time, know each other, and then the story begins. If you want to find more easy to watch, just go with Hanamizuki first.

Though secret seven is not BL, it's also about the main character finding out who is the real guy?
In secret seven I think the female lead gets gifts from a male. She feels it's one among the seven guys.

Both dramas have the same vibe and rythm. Even though Red Sky has a more dynamic conflict, those dramas are still considered light and the romance vibe are kinda similar.

Set during the Joseon dynasty, Red Sleeve tells the story about the life of a court lady and the impact to the palace. There's some background of story that's based on the actual case.

Even though Red Sky is based on mythological background, it's still a light warming drama and is easy to swallow.

It tells the love story about a blind astrologer and a painter in the middle of chaos happened in the Kingdom caused be the devil spirit.

If you're into slow burn historical romance, Red Sleeve is definitely the perfect fit to watch along with Red Sky. As I watched these two, I felt that the vibe was connected perfectly.

long historical dramas with very similar romance part and dynamic between 2 men and 1 woman. Of course Empress Ki is more complex drama, though it has issues too.

spoilers:
in both FL is strong (of course Ki is much badass woman) girl who has lover (there's more similarities in this relationship but too much spoilers) nice brave guy, but then not so likable emperor who had long time crush on FL (from the time she didn't treated him as emperor) takes her in his harem, loves her very much and because of that she is target of other wives. She hates emperor but slowly develops feelings.
though endings are different (similar in some details but different in overall feel to Emperor).
Also Emperor in "Ki" is more nice but weak, though I think more likable character after all.

I personally loved Emperor in "Ki" and other guy (though he is less main lead then King of Korea in "Ki") in King's Woman.

Overall, two wonderful stories that are different in substance, but follow a love story between two boys who meet for the first time under unlikely circumstances.
