Improvement Required
Shows where the chemistry is good but not amazing. A mix of cringe and butterflies but I can see the vision.
-
1. 180 Graus de Longitude Entre Nós
Thai Drama - 2022, 8 episodes
This one is hard to classify. the pairing had good chemistry and the show was overall amazing but I wouldn't qualify it primarily as a romance or a BL.
-
2. A Shoulder to Cry On
Korean Drama - 2023, 7 episodes
the chemistry was ok but not great, I do blame the fact that the actors are both idols from the same group. I did see the potential and vision but the execution was lacking,
-
3. Um Conto de Mil Estrelas
Thai Drama - 2021, 10 episodes
Dont get me wrong, I love Mix and Earth as a pairing but I do think that they hadn't hit their peak when this show was filmed. the chemistry was really good and I enjoyed their moments but they didn't make me feel butterflies or giddy.
-
4. Sobre Juventude
Taiwanese Drama - 2022, 8 episodes
This ranking is for the main couple only. their chemistry was cute and I liked them together but they didn't make me feel much. I did get the awkwardness of falling in love for the first time and they portrayed it very nicely. I do hope to see more of them in the futur.

5. Liquor
Korean Drama - 2023, 8 episodes
They were cute and had good chemistry until they kissed and held that kiss for 20 sec without moving while the camera panned out.
-
6. Seja Amado em Casa: Eu Aceito
Taiwanese Drama - 2021, 12 episodes
I dont have much to say about this pairing, I enjoyed the show and their romance, it wasn't earth shattering but it was still cute.
-
7. Big Dragon
Thai Drama - 2022, 8 episodes
Mos and Banks chemistry offscreen is out of this world but in this show it was ok.... I felt myself cringing a lot and their NC scenes felt like two people trying too hard. Im excited to see what's next and hoping star hunter gives them better plot that isn't completely about sex.
-
8. Check Out
Thai Drama - 2022, 12 episodes
the plot was really bad but I can't say that the chemistry between the leads was bad I think it was the only thing that made me continue watching it.
-
9. Love is Dang Nyang Dang Nyang
Korean Drama - 2022, 11 episodes
This rating is only for the first lead couple, Jungwoo and Choco.
the chemistry between them was really cute and they both delivered in term of acting, I just think that there's a lot of room for improvement.
-
10. Não Diga Não
Thai Drama - 2021, 12 episodes
On my first watch I thought this pairing was amazing but when I rewatched it, I caught myself cringing a lot during their NC scenes. I felt like they were trying too hard and I sometimes struggled to feel any kind of tension. I still believe that Ja and First have great overall chemistry.
-
11. Sr. Azarado Não Tem Escolha Senão Beijar!
Japanese Drama - 2022, 8 episodes
It was ok... but I do struggle sometimes with Japanese BL and how awkward some of their characters are. this show is one of the times were I thought the shyness and awkwardness of the ML was too much at times. I still think they had cute moments and that the actors did a good job, it just wasn't amazing.
-
12. HIStory4: Perto de Ti
Taiwanese Drama - 2021, 20 episodes
I think that the second lead couple had more chemistry than our leads (if you forget about the whole stepbrother thing)
both couple were nice together and I enjoyed their scenes.
also QOTD: you're my lover and my brother
-
13. Jack Frost
Japanese Drama - 2023, 6 episodes
I remember them being cute and having nice tension especially in the last episode but it won't be something ill remember for years.
-
14. Minha confusão de amor!
Japanese Drama - 2021, 10 episodes
cute pairing, the actors did an amazing job. I will remember this series for a Long time since it was one of my first Japanese BL.
-
15. Lábios Adoráveis
Korean Drama - 2022, 8 episodes
Jiwoong and Seobin were really good in this show but were a lot better in roommates of poongdunk 304.
-
16. Luz em Mim
Korean Drama - 2021, 16 episodes
nice chemistry, one of my favourite KBL of all time because of how loveable and funny the characters were. in terms of romance it didn't completely deliver for me but it was still a lot better than other kbl.
-
17. Love Class
Korean Drama - 2022, 6 episodes
I dont remember much about this pairing. I remember that the plot wasn't great but that I enjoyed watching it weekly.
-
18. A Tractor Loaded with Love
Korean Drama - 2023, 8 episodes
The actor who played Yechan carried the entire show to be honest. the leads had nice chemistry but it wasn't phenomenal.
-
19. Minato Shouji Coin Laundry
Japanese Drama - 2022, 12 episodes
this show was cute but could be really cringe at time.
-
20. My Only 12%
Thai Drama - 2022, 14 episodes
the development of the characters was amazing and their chemistry was ok. I think that the only reason why this didn't rank in the sizzling tier is because of that one scene were Cake declares his love in English, I was cringing so hard.
-
21. Admirador Secreto
Thai Drama - 2022, 12 episodes
this rating Is only for the lead couple and Bomb and Bear.
Kim and Mek were the couple I disliked the most out of the 4, I couldn't wait for their scene to be over just so we could see all the other couples. I dont think it was because they were bad but because they were overshined by Park and Lee and Tim and Mai.
Bear and Bomb were really cute and almost landed in the sizzling category. I just loved them together and the actors complimented each other well.
-
22. Oh My Assistant
Korean Drama - 2022, 8 episodes
I can't remember much about this show, it wasn't super bad or amazing which is why It landed here.
-
23. Coming Back Again
Korean Drama - 2022, 8 episodes
The plot of this show made up for the romance part of It. I think it would have been amazing even without the romance/BL aspect of it. since it was only 8 ep, the pacing of their relationship felt off and it was hard for me to really believe in them.
-
24. Shigatsu no Tokyo wa...
Japanese Drama - 2023, 8 episodes
Good show with good chemistry. the kisses were really nice and didn't feel awkward.
-
25. Star and Sky: Sky in Your Heart
Thai Drama - 2022, 8 episodes
the chemistry was ok, it wasn't cringe but wasn't great which would explain why it didn't do as well as star in my mind.
-
26. Star and Sky: Star in My Mind
Thai Drama - 2022, 8 episodes
a good start to the Joong Dunk pairing but felt really cringe at time, especially on a rewatch. Dunks acting is questionable and made me cringe a lot. I think that there's room for improvement which was proven to me when I watched hidden agenda
-
27. Takara-kun to Amagi-kun
Japanese Drama - 2022, 8 episodes
this show was cute and fluffy but the chemistry wasn't amazing.
-
28. TharnType: A série
Thai Drama - 2019, 12 episodes
The pairing has good chemistry but sometimes it felt so problematic that I couldn't enjoy the scene at all.
-
29. TharnType 2
Thai Drama - 2020, 12 episodes
same thing as season 1, it was hard to watch some scenes because of how problematic it was or because of my annoyance.
-
30. The New Employee
Korean Drama - 2022, 7 episodes
The chemistry was ok but I really cringed at times. it was a fun and short watch.
-
31. Khun Chaai
Thai Drama - 2022, 17 episodes
look I love jam and film as a pairing, they're both amazing actors and very underrated. they did a much better job in laws of attractions.
-
32. Triagem
Thai Drama - 2022, 13 episodes
I didn't watch this show because of the romance which is why I ranked it here. the plot was amazing though.
-
33. Wedding Plan
Thai Drama - 2023, 7 episodes
the plot almost ruined the characters for me because of how problematic their actions were. the chemistry was good but knowing what MAME can do, I know it could have been better.
