Completed in 2021
This year I'm excluding Kpop variety show stuff and stuff I re-watched. So this list will just be movies and shows I watched for the first time in 2021.
Not on MyDramaList:
- You Are Ma Boy (Vietnamese - 6 episodes) 7/10 - The plot was kinda shit and it was pretty cheesy. Kind of cute in some spots tho.
- Follow My Sunshine (Vietnamese - 5 episodes) 8.5/10 - The perfect plot for mee. Friends to lovers. Could have been way better though.

Ohh look I have another group I'm stanning. I wonder how many more groups I'll end up stanning before the year is over. Anyways, stan P1H, I love my boys. Keeho, Theo, Jiung, Soul, Jongseob and Intak <3

4. Pearl na Porta ao Lado
Filipino Drama - 2020, 8 episodes
This was a wild ride from beginning to end omg. Happy to finally get some GL. It was pretty good, not amazing but I thought it had some good messages and it gave us Bisexual rep, and Poly rep!! Low key want a season two.
-
5. Lenda de Yun Qian
Chinese Drama - 2020, 15 episodes
My friend told me about this drama and I'm so glad they did!! This was really cute!! I was so excited to watch a Chinese GL. It was a bit silly in bits, and super short. But it had an interesting concept and had some surprisingly fancy outfits and settings.
.. I want a girlfriend

6. Dependendo
Korean Drama - 2020, 8 episodes
Literally just watched this for the like three minutes Yeonjun was in it haha. But actually I ended up liking this drama a lot more than I thought I would. I especially loved the friendship themes. Overall it was a pretty cute drama, and an easy watch. And as expected Yeonjun did great hehe <3 plus the song TXT did for it was sooo good "Your Light"
-
7. Friend Zone 2: Dangerous Area
Thai Drama - 2020, 16 episodes

I literally almost fucking cried. "You liking sex doesn't mean you're sick" <3

8. Welcome High School Students
Chinese Drama - 2021, 20 episodes
Literally just watched this for XiaoJun since he's my WayV bias and his acting was so good!??! Like omfg he's so talented. I hope he does more acting in the future. The series itself was super dull, but still had to watch for him. And I did enjoy the bromance bc omg?? The entire thing was basically Zheng Dian doing something stupid and dorky and Chang Yan watching him with a fond smile on his face. And the ending lmao omg. They low key in love ngl.
-
9. WISH YOU: Your Melody From My Heart the Movie
Korean Movie - 2021
This story is so fucking beautiful. I love this movie version so much omg. The extra scenes they added made it even better, and they made it more cinematic as well. I'm like actually crying lmao. It's so good.
-
10. Sr. Coração: Especial
Korean Special - 2020, 1 episode

11. Step for You
Korean Movie - 2018
Can't believe it took me so long to find this! I thought I'd found all the decent Korean short BL films but here this is! Someone recommended it to me on tiktok actually. I really liked this, short and simple but sweet. And we fucking love a bisexual male lead let's goooo
-
12. Adrenalina de Cores
Korean Drama - 2020, 8 episodes
I'm torn between adoring this drama and being disappointed. Like?? they didn't cover a lot of the plot points. Still giving it a 9 because I really liked the concept but I really wish it was longer and covered more. But anyways, still so good!!
-
13. Ton Hon Chon Tee
Thai Drama - 2020, 10 episodes
I am so frustrated omfg. I liked this drama so much. It was all so good. It was super funny, and cute but it was also serious and had important social commentary on the stigma of gay people, how sexual ass*ult isn't taken seriously, humanizing sex workers, etc. But the last episode ruined it. We had bi erasure yet again, and the ending was so dumb and felt rushed. The homophobia was terrible too. I'm really so disappointed. Since it was all good until the last episode I'm letting it have an 8 but that last episode on it's own deserves a fucking three.
-
14. Após O Recomeço
Japanese Movie - 2020
Sooo good omg. Would've given it a 10, like I was super close but there were a few things that brought it down. Overall I really enjoyed it.
-
15. Caçadores de Demônios
Korean Drama - 2020, 16 episodes
This drama was good but some of the episodes were soooo boring. I'm not really an action fan which didn't help things. However, I loved the Counters (I'm a sucker for found family) especially So Moon he is my baby boy <3
and my random ship I had, had some really cute moments in the last two episodes hehe -
16. The Boy Foretold By The Stars
Filipino Movie - 2020
OMG THIS WAS SO GOOD.
So I actually watched this because the actor that plays Luke asked me to watch it, and I am so glad he did because !!! Him and his costar did an excellent job on this. The Soundtrack, the cinematography, the acting, the plot it was all so good. It was unique, emotional. Genuine queer storytelling. I truly loved it.
-
17. NADAOXOPPO
Thai Special - 2021, 1 episode

18. Beleza Verdadeira
Korean Drama - 2020, 16 episodes
PLZZZ I love this drama so so so much. It just made me laugh and it made me so happy to watch. Like, it wasn't super high quality or deep and emotional (well it was emotional, but-) I just enjoyed watching it so so so much.

Okay omg lordie. So I was gonna give this a 9.5 but the last episode was sooo good so I got biased and gave it a solid 10. The story was simple enough, but I thought it was done really well. The actors were really great and I loved their dynamic so much. So so good. Loved it.

23. 18 Outra Vez
Korean Drama - 2020, 16 episodes

-
27. Hotel Del Luna
Korean Drama - 2019, 16 episodes
Ahahah okay so uhhh. Wow I really didn't care for this at all. It's not bad, it's just not my thing. Supernatural plots are usually really boring to me. I didn't get into the romance at all, and I wasn't invested in any of the storylines except for the flashbacks. I would have dropped it but I watched the entire thing just for the very few and brief scenes Lee Do Hyun was in. Can he PLEASE get more roles btw?!? He is so talented, stop putting him in tiny ass roles.
-
28. Precise Shot
Chinese Drama - 2020, 20 episodes
I'm sorry but how tf did China pass this off as a bromance. This was 100% a romance no question. Quality wise it was not a 9 but idc I loved it so it gets a 9. I got soooo invested. I loved the story. It was so good and cute. I'm so happy I found such an underrated show. Probably gonna even rewatch in the future. Sooo cute. I seriously can't stop thinking about it. And they had such good chemistry tooo. AhhhHH
-
29. Youths in the Breeze
Chinese Drama - 2020, 24 episodes
So good and cute omg. The last two were especially good, and the first two had such unique plots!! I really loved these, I got so invested. I wish that last one was a full series I love them so much (me and my sports themed romance obsession haha) Another bromance that failed in censorship and came off as more of a romance (especially the second one!!) Wish they were longerrrr

49. Descobertas do Amor
Korean Movie - 2018
Shocked by how many of the cast I knew??? The main actresses from 18 again and Itaewon class? The guy from Uncanny Counter?? Like omg. Super cool. The movie itself was a bit boring. I'm not a huge first love high school romance fan, but I did like how they ended it.

-
70. Escritor Adorável
Thai Drama - 2021, 12 episodes
Loved the commentary pointing out the problems in the BL industry. Also liked that the plot was different from your average BL slightly. Some parts of it were boring, and a lot of it came off as pointless filler. Still, overall I liked it. Pretty good. But definitely a one time watch. Plus the ending was kinda of dumb and frustrating.
-
71. Delivery Boy
Hong Kong Movie - 2019
okay this was so good. I need more. Like this would make for such a good full length rom com. Perfect combination of cute and funny. I need more of this style in my life.

This made me cry
-

-
79. Flerte na Loja de Conveniência
Korean Drama - 2021, 6 episodes
Just watched this for Subin but actually kind of liked it?? It was kind of cute in a really basic mostly cringe kind of way. Kinda wanna stan the other groups now besides Victon.
Why did Subin make my heart flutter a few times in this i- He's my Victon bias but he never got me like that before. Tsundere characters are dangerous 0_0
Love who she ended up with, I would have chosen the same hehe (but I'd rather be with her, she was so cute and pretty)
-
80. Pescar no Céu
Thai Drama - 2021, 12 episodes
This was so shit lol. Like wow. They could not have made me hate Mork more. *thinks* nvm theye could but anyways. Didn't like the main romance at all. Hated the content. Mork was too pushy, they made it seem like fangirls stalking them was okay, they made fun of other cultures. I was horrified.
So why give it a 7? DUENMEEN. This 7 is for them and for them only. The only valid part of this show tbh. Also the only reason I watched the whole thing. They even made me cry in the finale and I don't often shed tears (that's a lie, I cry all the time)
-
81. Shining in My Eyes
Thai Special - 2021, 1 episode
Boring.
-
82. Meu Amor das Estrelas
Korean Drama - 2013, 21 episodes
I'm sorry, I know it's popular but I just couldn't get into it. It took all my strength just to finish it. It's a good drama, just not my kind of plot. I'm not big on aliens I guess lol.
-
83. Pérolas no Mar
Chinese Movie - 2018
Beautiful. Absolutely beautiful. Made me cry. I loved the message. 10/10. So good. Would rewatch. Loved the realism.
-
84. Deep
Thai Movie - 2021
It was alright. Kinda boring. Got more interesting near the end. It was a decent idea but I don't think they did enough with it. Character dynamic was nice. All and all it was alright for a one time watch but I don't see myself ever thinking back on it in the future.
-
85. Sankaku Mado no Sotogawa no Yoru
Japanese Movie - 2021
Total let down. I was really excited for this movie too ugh DX The plot and pacing? All over the place. The character interaction? Fell flat. The acting was good though. The last half hour got a bit better but still not great. I was bored the entire time. The bromance could have been way better too lol.
-
86. À Distância, a Primavera é Verde
Korean Drama - 2021, 12 episodes
I don't know how to put into words how I feel about this drama as my emotions towards it are very complicated so I'm just gonna leave it at:
Soohyun and Jun are boyfriends thank you and have a nice day.
-
87. Nova Ordem Espacial
Korean Movie - 2021
Sooo good omg. I didn't think I would like it but I ended up loving it. Had me hooked from beginning to end, never lost me once. I got super invested and fell for all the characters. Absolutely fantastic and so high quality too.
-
88. Imitação
Korean Drama - 2021, 12 episodes
Watched for my Ateez and SF9 boys and ended up really liking it. I was gonna give it an 8.5 but the ending pushed it up to a 9 for me. Loved the social commentary on the toxicity of the K-pop industry. Made me cry lol. Really good watch. I also enjoyed that it didn't completely focus on romance, but also on dreams, loss, sadness, hope, friendship, music, etc.
-
89. My Dear Friend

-
96. Nevertheless,
Korean Drama - 2021, 10 episodes
I honestly really loved it, mostly for the side characters. I didn't care about the main storyline but found it interesting and didn't care which way it ended so I wasn't disappointed or happy. I'm giving it a 10 because I loved the characters and the vibe, I loved how I never once got bored and it had lgbt rep!!
-
97. Minha Identidade é Beleza de Gangnam
