We have hundreds of productions dropping their new series on YouTube these days. Local companies vying to make some money banking on the popularity that BL genre is generating. While they can be theoretically dubbed as BL, their quality is still questionable. The storytelling and narrative aren’t always exceptional. But there are some which toe the line between good & abysmal. In today’s article, we are featuring some of these gems that remain unexplored!

Chinese Dramas in 2025 That Escaped Censorship
The sudden outpour of Chinese dramas (both certified BL & Bromances) might come as a surprise to most. There are many who are still questioning the extent of censorship; even a slight change in schedule makes them panic. Chinese censorship is notoriously infamous for cutting down good dramas solely because homosexuality is criminalized offense in that country. But in recent days, producers and directors have found a new way to produce these dramas- shooting them abroad & streaming them on international platforms. Since it surpasses the regional boundaries, these dramas are safe!

Top 5 BL Dramas to Watch in 2025 (So Far)
We are halfway through 2025 and the stunning display of sensual yet high quality narratives has left most audiences satisfied. It could be attributed to the definitive pacing & better script writing skills which coupled with good acting talents have elevated the entire experience. The sudden downpour of shows is indeed questionable. Are they worth your time? Are we finally stepping out of the repetitive patterns? Is BL offering more than subpar content? Let’s figure out the answers to these questions with a quick glance at some of my favorites from this year!

“My Stubborn” Series Review (Ep.3 to 12)
Adapted from the novel “Nai Hia Bok Mai Chop Dek” (ไหนเฮียบอกไม่ชอบเด็ก) by MissPa_Ob (นางสาวผอบ), “My Stubborn” had a clear directive & motion. It was NOT to repeat M Flow Entertainment’s past mistakes. Most shows from the said agency have poor production value & highly enthusiastic sex scenes. But sex can only sell so far; doesn’t mean “My Stubborn” doesn’t delve on it. Almost 80% of the narrative includes unhindered & unapologetic sex scenes between the main leads. I’m yet to find an episode where they weren’t kissing or having a full-blown sex session. Sex plays an important role in most M Flow Entertainment’s dramas. And yet, “My Stubborn” was far better than the precedents set by the company with their prior productions. The high ratings could very well be attributed to the high class chemistry between the main leads, Boat Yongyut & Oat Pasakorn.
