Middleman's Love and Cutie Pie are both adorable romantic comedies that revolve around the theme of unexpected connections and budding relationships. In Middleman's Love, the main characters find themselves unexpectedly falling in love while navigating the challenges of their professional lives. Similarly, in Cutie Pie, the main characters also experience unexpected encounters that lead to romantic entanglements, filled with light-hearted moments and sweet relationships. Both series offer heartwarming stories that explore the complexities of love and the power of human connections. Also Tutor and Yim played the side couple in Cutie Pie
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 :-)

Cutie Pie is basically the Thai bl version of My Little Bride w/ some side stories. I wouldn't be surprised if My Little Bride was an inspiration since My Little Bride was super popular during its time.
Basically, Grandparents promised kids promised their firstborns to each other at birth. However, they were both boys. Korea wasn't down w/ that back that. So it went down to the grandkids.
So Grandparents say the kids have to get married - at birth & there is a huge age gap. I think it's about 10 or 11 yrs.
In My Little Bride, they do get married & so their love is built through proximity & understanding. Same as in Cutie Pie.
