An actor’s caliber rests on his ability to command the audience’s attention. 2025 saw a sudden rise in BL dramas and as such, the focus has shifted to intelligent storytelling and smart casting.

Boys’ Love as a genre is expanding and undertaking several tropes. But there are still very few storylines each year, that lucidly explore the themes of maturity. Today’s feature includes such far-fetched shows that made a mark with their thought-provoking stories!
