BL Second Chance Romances (AKA Reunion)
BL shows with a getting back together or reconciliation trope?Ā
Happy ending!Ā
No cheating/infidelity
Iām partly putting this out to you all because I know there are some from places I donāt track that might qualify.
This is what I got:Ā
Just Friends? (Korean short) - sort of, highly recommendedĀ
The Summer Pasta Recipe (Korean short)Ā
Table Manner (Korean short)Ā
First Love Again (Korea) - one of them remembers past lives so itās a reunion for himĀ
The Yearbook (Thailand)Ā
On Cloud Nine (Thailand) - I question whether this can be called happyĀ
Dear Doctor Iām Coming For Your Soul (Thailand) - itās a reunion for one of them for supernatural reasonsĀ
HIStory Obsessed (Taiwan) - a magical rebirth version of thisĀ
DNA Says Love You (Taiwan - kinda, but itās an underrated gem of a show
His (the movie) - but not really BL (no tropes) and itās Japan so... the endingĀ
The Most Peaceful Place is My Place (Vietnam)
Individual Circumstances (Korea) - DEFINITELY! Itās entirely a second chance romance. Itās not my favorite but it will hit all the buttons.Ā
Jack oāFrost (Japan) - sort of, but itās amnesia trope drivenĀ
Our Dating Sim (Korea) - ABSOLUTELY and itās WONDERFULĀ
2nd Seasons that operate on this trope
Love Sick 2 (Thailand)Ā
To My Star 2 (Korea)Ā
We Best Love: Fighting Mr 2nd (Taiwan)
Short Story Project's Coffee Shop (microfilm Youtube series in the same cafe setting with the same main character) ep 3 installment "ESPRESSO" is a BL. It stars BoyTod from Ghost Host, Ghost House and is a reunion romance. Itās quite cute.Ā
Coffee Melodyās Christmas special that no one asked for. itās basically a reunion romance, but mostly just domesticity. It cute but dull.
A case could be made for Triage. I left out all the āpining since childhoodā mumbo jumbo since thatās kinda a different trope.Ā
Updated March 2023, no intention to keep updated. Add a comment if you find a new one.Ā
