They deal with the stories of lgbtq in a very real way. They are both heart touching. When i first watched I told sunset about you, i had started to hated gay thai dramas cos they were so cringe but this drama gave me a hope. Fujoshi gei ni kokuru was a surprise too but this is my favorite japanese drama till now. It made me a queen fan. Everything is so surreal that you cannot stop watching.
They both give off similer vibes and atmosphere, they are both about two high school boys that fall deeply for each other, In both dramas, the main characters have very strong chemistry and tension towards each other despite being very young. In both BLs the main characters did excellent performances for their roles
Miss Dao and Tewkao's chemistry? Then, "I told sunset about you" is definitely for you! A lot of fans were not happy with the ending Dao and Tewkao got so, after a lot of fan's request, Nadao made this series starring the same actors (Billkin who played as Dr. Dao and PP Krit who played as Tewkao in My Ambulance).
Both fantastic and heartfelt BL's. His is about two teenage lovers that broke up in college years and reunite in adulthood with completely different lives.
There is slice of life, there is pain of the past and there are lingering feelings. I feel like both dramas have a more mature side to it but still come across very soft with deeply rooted emotions.

They are both coming-of-age narratives that focus on two young people who have known each other all their lives and have a fraught relationship (are we friends, brothers, or competitors?) told in similar tones and with a similar level of simmering eroticism. Both have excellent camerawork and make interesting stylistic choices, both have convincing performances that showcase the actors' chemistry together, both are bittersweet, and both are continued in later installments of their respective franchises.
Both series:
-have male teens coming of age and falling in love.
-have leads that are working hard in school and is annoyed by the love interest, but also secretly like them.
-have one character that is confident in his sexuality and is supportive and understanding of another one that is struggling with his.
-show the emotional roller coaster that the characters go on, due to one of them not being able to accept themselves. They show realistic journeys to self acceptance.
-have complex characters that are likable but make mistakes.
-have really good acting and a couple with chemistry on screen.

In the series cut of ATOF, there's the added punch of emotion that comes from the epilogue scenes of each episode that additionally match well with the ITSAY-esque tone.

It could be the blue shorts, but ITSAY gave me Love Sick vibes from the very beginning. Both have that raw, vulnerable, and uncertain feeling that accompanies young love and discovering one’s self. The filter used in ITSAY also imparted a retro feeling that took me back to the early days of Thai BL.
Both are stories of teens coming of age and falling in love, set in beautiful seaside towns. ITSAY is a bit more dramatic and has a lot more going on in the background, but it is also much longer. His is simple, short, sweet and very genuine. Both are very well written and have great conversations about what it is like to fall in love and grow up as a young adult.
