Famous BL Couples We Can’t Get Enough Of (And the Toxic Side of Shipping)

BL couples are basically like that one snack you can’t stop eating—once you start, you’re hooked for life. Whether it’s their undeniable chemistry on screen or their off-screen antics that keep us squealing, these duos have managed to steal our hearts and refuse to give them back. From Thailand to Taiwan, here are some of the most famous BL couples that have us wrapped around their fingers. (Spoiler alert: I’ll also be diving into the darker side of shipping because, well, it’s a mess.)

The Thai Royalty

Billkin and PP Krit

Can we all just agree that Billkin and PP are like the kings of emotional damage? These two set our hearts on fire in I Told Sunset About You and then casually stomped on them with their incredible chemistry. Off-screen, they’re like that annoyingly cute couple who claims they’re “just friends” while giving each other heart eyes in every interview. We see you two. We know what’s up.

Yin and War

YinWar are the definition of chaotic love. If BillkinPP are the angsty couple, YinWar are the friends-to-lovers trope come to life. They’re loud, they’re funny, and they have zero chill when it comes to teasing each other. Plus, watching them in Love Mechanics basically left me questioning my own relationship standards. If my future partner doesn’t look at me the way Yin looks at War, I’m calling it quits.

Force and Book

ForceBook is that dynamic duo that sneaks up on you and suddenly becomes your new obsession. They’ve got the banter, the cuteness, and the way they look at each other? Ugh, it’s unfair. Plus, their chemistry in every effing series is like the kind that makes you want to scream into your pillow. Or maybe that was just me.

Billy and Babe

BillyBabe are the newcomers who instantly became everyone’s favorites. They’re like the Gen Z version of couple goals—constantly breaking the internet with their TikTok dances and casual flirting. Seriously, their off-screen chemistry is just as intense as their on-screen moments.

Ohm and Nanon

Do I even need to explain? Bad Buddy made them legendary, and their real-life friendship is just as iconic. OhmNanon are like the golden retriever and the grumpy cat dynamic, and it works so well that we can’t help but ship them (even if Nanon keeps reminding us to chill).

Max and Nat

MaxNat are the cutest of BL couples. If chemistry could be patented, these two would be millionaires. Their raw and intense moments in Two Worlds had me clutching my heart like an overly invested drama queen. I’m not ashamed to admit it.

Beyond Thailand

BrightWin (Thailand)

Let’s be real—2gether basically launched the BL craze into the stratosphere. Bright and Win’s chemistry had everyone convinced they were dating, and the fan service? Chef’s kiss.

Zee and Saint (Thailand)

ZeeSaint had everyone screaming with Why R U? and their off-screen friendship kept the fandom alive. Their playful interactions still haunt me to this day.

Mew and Gulf (Thailand)

MewGulf basically set the standard for BL chemistry. Their sweet and spicy dynamic left fans rewatching every single interaction, and their fan meets? Legendary.

Taiwan - Yu and Sam

From We Best Love, these two gave us a rollercoaster of emotions with their undeniable connection. Their chemistry was so good it had me suspiciously squinting at every behind-the-scenes clip.

Korea - Park Seo Ham and Jae Chan

Korean BLs might be new to the game, but these two in Semantic Error proved that they’re not playing around. Their tension and awkward flirting were so realistic that fans couldn’t help but swoon.

The Toxic Side of Shipping

Let’s be honest—BL shipping culture can get toxic real fast. Some fans tend to forget that these couples are real people with their own lives. Just because your favorite duo looks cute on screen doesn’t mean they owe you a real-life relationship. Pushing them to act like a couple 24/7 is exhausting and unfair.

The constant pressure to “prove” their relationship status or respond to every rumor is just not it. Can we just let them breathe and enjoy the content they give us? Shipping is fun, but it shouldn’t become a toxic obsession that invades their personal lives. Respect their boundaries and remember that they’re actors first.

Final Thoughts

Love them, support them, and most importantly, respect their privacy. These couples have given us some of the most iconic moments in BL history, and we should be grateful without being invasive. Let’s keep shipping fun and positive!

Now, excuse me while I go rewatch all their dramas and cry about how single I am.
