Before Your Eyes Stop (2020)

Both stories about love stories that are left in complain the beginning. They also touch upon the delicate relationships between people

They are both from the same screenwriter & director and they revolve around separation. Both also revolve practicing for the sports. They are really beautiful check them.

Neglected rich boy has been cared for by his loyal poor bff/protector for ~years, yet when it comes to telling the whole truth about their *real* feelings, they have quite a difficult time getting there. In LA, the rich one returns from an extensive overseas stay & discovers their bff now seems to have eyes for someone else.. & a messy "mostly straight" triangle ensues (& is yet to be resolved years later). In WYEL, things are handled somewhat better, & with a much ~brighter ending, at least. <3

Hm actually I’m not sure about this one because they‘re not thaat similar but i guess if you like this Drama then you might like Make our days count“ for sure ^_^

Long-time friends to lovers BLs with a school setting. WYEL is much more angsty, though, but the couples in both are lovely and easy to root for.

Unlike The boy next door where there isn't actually a gay relationship, this web drama does. Its about two childhood friends who realize they like each other more than friends.

They have the same director which is Hwang Da Seul and the cinematography is similar. There are many aesthetic looking shots similar to Where Your Eyes Linger. The overall colors is similar especially in the kissing scene where there is a sunset.

Both BLs are centered around how love can happen at work. The difference is that in Ocean Likes Me two strangers meet and work together at a restaurant while in Where Your Eyes Linger two seemingly childhood friends growing up together with one character being always the bodyguard for the other. As a bonus you get the same actor, who plays Ocean as the bodyguard in Where Your Eyes Linger. It really shows how divers his acting is.

This series has a subplot about a spoiled rich kid with an abusive father and his bodyguard whom he grew up with. Similarly to WYEL, the bodyguard has to keep his feelings hidden because of his position. It's difficult to point out the other major similarities without giving away too much of the plot, but suffice it to say that the bodyguard will have to abandon old loyalties and fight for his love.

Also Taiwanese but has the same kind of formatting and story telling. Both of them are slow romances with exes who pop up unnecessarily

Both are BL mini dramas with a similar feel in the relationship between the MLs. One of them faces anger from a parent who forces them apart, and both dramas end with the couple's reunion in another place after time apart.

Both are LGBTQ+ drama's set in South Korea.
Both of them also have an actor, Jang Eui Soo, in common.

Both are short BL dramas. WYEL is a Korean BL while WBL is a Taiwanese BL. Both have male students falling in love and have rich parents who disapprove of their relationship.
