If you enjoyed Paint with Love, check out Plus & Minus for a slightly more serious storyline with a narrow focus.
If you enjoyed Plus & Minus, check out Paint with Love for similar vibe but with way more laughs!

Both:
- "BL" gay romances between adult men
- Strong chemistry between the actors, without being overdone
- Somewhat opposites-attract, and one that is between characters who grew up together (in Paint with Love the latter is not romantic)
- Characters who are unsure of their feelings
- Slow burn
- Some amount of humor, without minimal over-the-top aspects (Paint with Love has more comedy)
- Set in the workplace
- Focused mostly on the main one or two couples (so not a lot of unresolved plot lines or characters you barely get to know but see a lot of)
