Won't take you long to figure out why it's called My Mate Match and I think it's pretty clever lol
Anyway, so off the top of my experienced BL watching head, I can't think of a drama with a similar storyline so basically that means it's not too cliché/overused. It's pretty clear these boys are new to acting/BL but that's perfectly fine to me. The ending was pretty satisfying and even though it looks like they could try to squeeze a S2, I find it totally unnecessary so hopefully they leave the ending up to the viewers imagination. It got a little boring a few times and I saw a couple scenes coming from a mile away but overall it was decent. I'd recommend to a BL newbie.
Enjoy...
