I Told Sunset About You (2020)

With one of the male lead is proudly gay and the other one is going through the journey of self-acceptance, the series doesn't shy away from sexual attraction towards a person of same-sex. These series stand apart from the contemporary Boy's Love series tend to ignore the sexual orientation of the characters, by using the "I am not gay, I am just in love with you".

Haven't watched this yet since it just came out in the theaters in Taiwan, but from what i've heard it's top notch and even topped the box office surpassing every other movie for 2020 (in Taiwan). Friends with feelings for each other that go beyond the friend line. This and I told sunset about are the highest rated bl/lgbtq/coming of age dramas, put this on your plan to watch list cause it won't disappoint + it might be the only one that can compete with I told sunset about you since it set the bar so high. Top bls/coming of age of the year don't miss out.

They aren’t exactly similar but the yearning ‘to be together but unable to’ is very similar in both shows, added with the natural chemistry and great acting. ITSAY is definitely a much more intense watch but I feel those who truly appreciated it will appreciate Bad Buddy as well!

- Both series are about two friends who knew each other from childhood and then fall in love
- It takes place at a unique location
- It has the same vibe and both have very sad scenes

It's more on the realistic side of homosexual relationship. Both great in giving tension and bringing the perfect atmosphere!!

Both take place in unique but beautiful locations, and they both have couples with a very authentic and passionate type of love.

Both are thai bl but more imprtantly they both are like beautiful slice of life , deep sad but still full of hope

It's all about the yearning. Yearning for your best friend but being unsure about your feelings, being scared to act on them.

If you love the cinematography of "I Told Sunset About You", then you will love the cinematography of "I Feel You Linger In The Air". The color-grading has similar vibes, except IFYLITA has that very light bokeh effect when Jom arrived in the 1926. Both series has exceptional acting and fantastic script. Both are worthy to be called a masterpiece.

Both deals with school friends who start having feelings for one another. There are also the mandatory set of friends who are pretty loving and supportive. But the sexual tension in ITSAY is beyond unbelievable!!

Another outstanding BL. I would recommend this to every BL lovers. You should give it a try. It has no awkward or forced kissing scenes. Everything that comes out of liking. In my opinion its perfect.

-Both are childhood acquaintances
- both have a hate-relationship because they started competing with each other as kids.
-main character is in love with someone else at first
-rivals to lovers

It's similar in it follow 2 boys who were friends as kids. They are also separated for a period of time albeit for a different reason.

Both have the main leads as students
Both have characters who are make reference to the Comm faculty for acting

Both are more slow burn BLs that dive deep into the emotional aspects and less on the physical.

Even though "I Told Sunset About You" and "Hello Stranger" are made in different countries, both BL series tackles the struggle of young boys to accept their own feelings. Because of Societal Norms, they are not accepting who they are.
