Fish Upon the Sky (2021)

Both of these fluffy BL series takes place in a university. They also both involve some light-hearted mysteries and plot twists. If you enjoy youthful and cute BL stories, then try out Fish Upon the Sky.

Both deal with people changing their outer appearance to fit in with what society deems as acceptable.

The two main leads constantly fail to recognize the one who has truly loved and appreciated the. For who they are, both on the inside and on the outside.

Both are set in universities, while together with me deals with a more heavier storyline such as enternal homophobia, fish soon a sky is more light hearted, fluffy and cute... But definitely both are worth the watch.... And both are BLs, soooo

If you love your dramas set in a university, here is another one for you - dark blue kiss, this is a continuation of Pete and Kao's story from the show 'kiss me again' ... Also enemy to lovers just like fish upon a sky,

Both Fish Upon the Sky and Gen Y are both series wherein some characters are also studying medicine and engineering in college.

Though Fish Upon The Sky is not about time travel, the protagonist of Be My Favorite, in pursuit of his crush, ends up with the person he thought to be his love rival.

Both have a university setting. One of the MLs is socially awkward, the other very popular. Both dramas have a supportive circle of friends which includes a secondary BL pairing. In both, the other students post on social media about the main couple with some shipping them and others bullying the awkward ML, and a girl who has a crush on the popular ML posts things online to try to hurt the other ML.

-A socially awkward ML who decides to change himself for the better at the beginning of the story and ends up meeting his love interest in the process....check

- A love triangle with 3 of the softest cinnamon rolls in existence where you can't help but want everyone to be happy.....check

- Adorable and super funny side character....check

- A whole lot of cheese and good cringe....check

Thai BL dramas. In both, one of the leads has a mysterious chat friend (Guy from faculty nearby/Frog prince) who he confides his day to day life throughout the episodes and that is later revealed with a bit of a plot twist.

If you liked Cutie Pie then you might like Fish Upon the Sky.

Both dramas featured the following:

- Affectionate couples with good chemistry and the best kissing scenes.

- A MC (Kuea/Pi) with an adorable, immature, and sometimes petty personality. I just love both MCs sense of humor and petty sides, they give me the drama I crave.

- A ML (Hia Lian/Mork) that is elegant, mature, and totally head-over heels in love with the MC. Both MLs have neverending patience when dealing with their Drama King MCs.

- Side couples made up of polar opposites. Seriously, in both dramas the second MLs (Hia Yi/Duean) are abrasive, domineering, yet funny. They come across as somewhat mean towards their love interests but still are protective of them. The love interests (Khondiao/Meen) also have similar personalities of gentle and needing to be handled with care, yet hidden strength.

- The side characters in both dramas are hilarious! In Cutie Pie, Kuea's classmates are hysterical and always down to help him hide his secrets from Hia Lian. In Fish Upon the Sky, Pi has the help of his brother's classmates to help him as well. I guess the running trope is that the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering are really fun and cool people. ;-) Oh yeah, can't forget our fave personal secretaries from CP and Ship Captains from FUTS (they are hilarious!). :-D

- I also want to mention that both dramas featured very supportive parents/families that were accepting of their children's relationships.

By far these two are my fave Thai BL dramas, with Kinnporsche close behind :-)

Similarities:

- Secret crushes
- Both school-related plots
- The "nerd" ML gets a makeover
- Each ML helps the other ML in some way (secretly)
• Tries to become their friend too
- The ML's friend helps the ML get their crush

Differences:

- FUTS ("Fish Upon the Sky") is university-based while MSP ("My School President") is high school-based
- MSP is more about music than school, while FUTS is more about dentistry and health sciences (medicine)

Both male leads played by PondPhuwin.

Similarities:
- Phuwin playing a character who is seen as a 'loner' with little to no friends
- Pond befriending said above character and trying to help them
- Sweet/wholesome romance scenes
- Love triangles
- Cute side couple (different actors in each series)

Same cute couple and cute but not overly cheesy vibe. Even the side couple in fish are just as cute! Naturally there are some scenes that can be too sweet but overall its a good, wholesome bl
