BL for beginners

Released at the start of 2020, for a lot of people this was their first BL. I believe it's also the most streamed BL series to date.

It's a great introduction to the genre because it's mild and fluffy. There aren't any serious kisses and at times it's more bromancy, so if you're not used to the genre this is a great start

A legacy BL. Like 2gether it's fun and light BL to watch

Really innocent short story about a boy developing a crush on another boy

The 5-special-episode continuation of 2gether. Still somewhat innocent but a graduation from the high five

Chinese fantasy BL. It's censored but still amazing

Despite the body-switching technicalities, it is a BL imo. The story is also really interesting and original and the production/ actors are good

The best KBL for many. Fluffy. Shinwoo supremacy

Currently airing - softest series ever

Mixes BL with fantasy in a really nice way. 

If you're looking for a more emotional plot though, this is a great start. It has really valid lgbt+ representation for coming out, but also the plot is just touching in general

This was originally meant to be a short cooking promotional show, but people liked it so much they expanded it into a miniseries. It's really fluffy and also a good place to find recipes too

A must see. Very sweet, funny, awkward and interesting

The first proper Korean BL webseries. Very angsty with great chemistry

The second Korean BL webseries. More soft and funny than the first

Cool concept but very tame

Multiple unique couples with adorable moments. Also a really funny series

A popular Tawianese BL. The chemistry, acting and production are amazing (even though they all wear like the same two outfits the entire season)

A filipino BL on Youtube. Takes place during the pandemic through mostly video call, but it is really well made.

The same as Gameboys but because Netflix decided to release it, a few of the beginning episode scenes were reshot to make them better. 

Very angsty and more skinship than the previous ones

Out of all the GMMTV BL's I think this is the most mature. It has a lot of angst as well but more romantic moments and kisses. 

[if you don't want to be lost I suggest watching Kiss Me Again, the prequal where the main couple first get together, or the KMA cut that GMMTV released on Youtube, which has most of the couple's scenes together.]

No we're getting more emotional. If you're looking for great LGBT+ representation, symbolism, and a real story, this is it. Also the cinematography is really pretty

Another emotional one

A great and emotional story with a ton of romance and chemistry between the three couples. A bit more mature as well

A lot of people's favourite Thai BL. The story and production is beautiful and realistic. A must watch (which is why it's so low because not much compares after watching this)

Short but sweet popular Korean bl

A classic with one of the legendary BL actor ships. It has a few bed scenes

Another popular series. There are a couple bed scenes and also a storyline some may find upsetting

Calls out the toxicity of the bl industry, and is really interesting. They also don't shy away from skinship

An action mystery series, with the same actors as Together With Me but more mature roles and scenes

Cute and varied couples.

[2moons is the prequal of the same story with different actors. Its whole season is recapped in the first four episodes of this one so it isn't mandatory to watch. Imo it isn't as good, but if you want more of an idea about the characters you can watch it before this one.]

Controversial especially because of the beginning of the relationship and the way the writer handled some topics, but it is really intimate and intense

A Taiwanese action BL with great acting and romantic scenes

Covid disrupted the filming of many scenes but its still a good series with great actors. Some of the scenes are wild though

Oh the discourse. Imo, it's genuinely a great series despite you know what. The chemistry is amazing and its funny, sweet and deep. 

All I'm going to say is episode 6 is especially intense, like nothing has ever topped this intensity intense

A miss for me, but a hit for some. Also controversial because of the storyline. It contains quite a bit of mature content as well
