Gay shit I watched - everything under 100 minutes
I wanted to declutter the other list, so all of the really short stuff goes here. If multiple seasons add up to more than 100 minutes, it stays in the main list, which is here: https://mydramalist.com/list/4KoOvgE4
>9 means it's brilliant
>8 I'd def recommend.
7 means it's fun enough, might recommend, but there are no masterpieces here
6 means it's watchable but nothing special, standard fare.
5 means it's got some amount of redeeming qualities, but also issues.
<4 means I kinda hated it
mlm = gay or bi guys in here
wlw = lesbian or bi women in here
T = trans people in here. I don't count standard comedic relief trans women in Thai shows. They have to actually be a character.
A = ace and/or aro people in here
GNC = gendernonconforming people in here

105. Top Girls
Chinese Movie - 2016
wlw, GNC. ~70 minutes
I do recommend this one, but only because there's not enough GL to go around, especially with butches in it.
Dance school students. Badass lesbian does streetfighting.
cw: I think this one had consent issues. And it does have violence and toxicity.

112. You Are the Cream in My Coffee
Thai Special - 2023, 7 episodes

Low quality indie. Girl pressures barista into teaching her how to make coffee. This one was pretty watchable.
-
113. Youths in the Breeze: Cat Boyfriend
Chinese Special - 2020, 8 episodes
mlm. 56 minutes
Low budget silly little show about a cat who turns human. Enemies to lovers. There are better things to watch, but you could watch this I guess.

-
119. Gray Shelter
Korean Drama - 2024, 5 episodes
mlm. ~95 minutes
It's sure gray. Their lives suck, one is a douche and the other is a grey blob. Nobody in this series appears capable of talking to people in their life without sounding like they hate them. Production quality is low but acceptable. I'd need more scenes and less abrupt time skips and flashbacks to feel like this is complete. As of now the plot feels confusing.
cw: parental abuse.
-
120. I Broke Up Because of You
Korean Movie - 2023
wlw. ~6 minutes
She broke up with boyfriend to go flirt with bartender bestie. It's just kinda low quality. Meh.
-
121. I Still Remember the Feeling
Thai Drama - 2023, 6 episodes

It's not terrible. Low quality indie. If you really crave GL, you could watch this.
-
122. Inverse Identity
Chinese Drama - 2024, 9 episodes
mlm. ~14 minutes
He kidnaps powerful guy, powerful guy kidnaps him back. Then they turn out to be related and then more wild plot twists.
This is wild and dramatic, and that's definitely fun, but the production quality is abysmal. From China though, which is a miracle.
-
123. Little Bit

dropped
wlw
Very short. Unfinished.
-
124. Little Cupid
Thai Drama - 2024, 6 episodes
wlw. ~48 minutes
H'our channel indie miniseries. Not very impressive. Two babysitters live in same house and fall for each other.
-
125. Legend of Yun Qian
Chinese Drama - 2020, 15 episodes
dropped
wlw. ~60 minutes
Dumbass uses magic fan to travel to wuxia times and takes the place of her look alike. Exaggerated top/bottom relationship dynamic.
-
126. Marry Go Round
Thai Special - 2023, 2 episodes
mlm. ~90 minutes
Secret gay wedding, oh no parents show up and they perform several unfortunate switcheroos. Over the top attempt at comedy.

-
128. My Dear Friend

129. Our First Time

Indie low budget. Just tropes. Not really worth watching.
-

133. Sipjangsaeng
Korean Movie - 2021
wlw
Confusing. Non-linear
-
134. The Star
Thai Drama - 2024, 2 episodes
mlm. ~45 minutes
This should be a horror story, but is presented as a BL.
Dickbag actor doesn't want a BL partner, but does it for the money, hates his partner for classism reasons, but comes around by the end.
I watched the censored version because this would be way too much for me otherwise.
The dynamic between the guys feels wrong, and the way they essentially do sex work because otherwise they'd die also feels wrong. Maybe the discomfort with this is the point of this miniseries, but idk then why do they appear to get a 'happily ever after' while still stuck in this shitshow? How come their reservations about doing this are suddenly gone? Are we supposed to think this is okay, or not?
-
135. Two Hearts

137. Xiao Xiang Yi Jiu
