Looking for recommendations for a BL to watch next! A happy ending is a must. Ideally with at least one or two good kiss scenes or generally intimate scenes, but this isn’t mandatory if the chemistry is good.

My favorites are KinnPorsche, HIStory 3: Trapped, Not Me and Manner of Death (I’m also a big fan of TharnType because I love garbage drama with good acting and that show is loaded with both.)

I’ve also seen Don’t Say No, Why R U?, LITA, Love Mechanics (bored me to death), Bad Buddy (also bored me to death), Cherry Blossoms After Winter, Pornographer/Mood Indigo, Semantic Error, Together With Me, Cutie Pie and The Eclipse! Anything else I haven’t seen. Any recommendations would be super appreciated, I want to start a new series tonight or tomorrow night!

Action BLs:

Long Time No see - I love it!!!

Unforgotten night - you said you like trash, this is very good trash, funny although not intended to be.

Triage- its a time loop BL with some action

3 will be free- read reviews, it's not a usual story... Not everyones cup of tea...

Those sound perfect, thank you so much! I will start with Long Time No See tonight and then jump into Triage before going down the rest of your rec list. I’ve never even heard of Triage but I just looked it up, seems like it’s gonna be amazing.

I hope it will be interesting for you because it is a bit slow but almost every episode has a new surprise/reveal.

It has 8.6 score in MDL which is very high and I am surprised by this score- this wasn't a very hyped series (and this is probably why u never heard of it...)
