Best Drama First Kiss (Queer/BL edition)
These will not be ranked based on how much I love the Drama but on how good the 1st mutual kiss between the couple is (which usually plays into how much I like the overall drama but there are some dramas with Trash kisses that I love so so so much). If the 1st kiss was in a dream or some shit like that it doesn't count. If one person doesn't kiss back I am not counting it. Also, this isn't a ranking of best to worst, all of these kisses are good some just made me more feral than others.
Higher ranking goes to things like: Best Build Up "both the characters and ME have been wanting this for SO long", Swoonablity, 'If someone kissed me like that it would end my life', 'OH We kissin kissin now' (these actors obviously attended and Committed to their intimacy workshops thank god, no dead fish kiss) The pull back and stare thing. things like that.
I am only including dramas I have watched
I will also be making a Het edition of this list. Which is probably gonna be so much harder cause some kisses in Het dramas are awful.

1. Bad Buddy
Thai Drama - 2021, 12 episodes
Best Build Up
OH We kissin kissin now
That pull back and stare thing
The buildup alone to this kiss would rank it super high. You could truly feel how badly Pat and Pran wanted to kiss each other and we all screamed for them to just GO FOR IT already. And Ohm X Nanon delivered.

2. KinnPorsche
Thai Drama - 2022, 14 episodes
OH We kissin kissin now
That pull back and stare thing
For such a high-heat couple KinnPorsche's first kiss was sweet and filled with longing. Drunk and relaxed Kinn just couldn't keep fighting whatever it was that was pulling him toward Porsche. And we have all seen that MileApo intimacy workshop so this kiss delivered.

Swoonablity
'If someone kissed me like that it would end my life'
I have since tried to find a confession scene that makes me feel the way that the DeYi one does, I can't. These two. *sigh* Obviously this ranking is going to the bridge/overpass kiss, not the pool one. (Shu Yi is right that one doesn't count) I rewatch this drama often and every time we get to the confession I am on the edge of my seat. DeYi are really Unstoppable Force (Shu Yi) meets seemingly Unmoveable Object (Shi De). Frustration meets yearning and professions shouted into traffic making for one of my favorite first kisses.

4. Como Nos Filmes
Filipino Drama - 2020, 8 episodes
Swoonablity
The way this drama makes me feel should be studied in a lab. Yearninggggggggg so much yearningggggg. I wanted things to work out for these two more than I had wanted anything. I saw myself in this couple and when they kissed my heart Soared in my chest.

5. Gameboys
Filipino Drama - 2020, 13 episodes
Swoonablity
Gav and Cairo's first kiss meant so much more. Watching Gameboys during the height of the pandemmy it was like a light a small piece of hope and joy when it seemed things would never end. And although their relationship is left uncertain their feelings for each other never were.

6. Erro Semântico
Korean Drama - 2022, 8 episodes
'OH We kissin kissin now'
I'm not counting the sleep kiss here, I'm counting the 'am I handsome, Sangwoo-ah?" kiss. GIRL the tension, our ParkxPark couple really flew while other KBL couples were learning how to crawl. This kiss served, delivered, fed, donated, and gave life.

7. Cupcake à Moda Antiga
Japanese Drama - 2022, 5 episodes
'If someone kissed me like that it would end my life'
HE PUT HIS FINGER IN THAT OLD MAN'S MOUTH CHILE. Togawa was fully prepared to Eat that man if given the slightest chance. The single-camera shot all the way through the confession scene just Up the tension and emotion. He just couldn't take it anymore and we all felt it. Japan is very good at doing horny and tender.

8. GAP
Thai Drama - 2022, 12 episodes
HELLO LADIES ! Truly I have no idea which kiss I am talking about here cause once they started biting each other's lips, my brain was dripping out of my ears.

9. O Romancista
Japanese Drama - 2018, 6 episodes
SPEAKING OF HORNY, my god

10. Blueming
Korean Drama - 2022, 11 episodes
'If someone kissed me like that it would end my life'
We get the troupe of 'never dated before' a lot in dramas but this is the first time I've ever seen it be real and believable and SO sweet. It was Siwon's first kiss Ever and he acted accordingly and it was beautiful. No one is automatically good at kisses especially if you are eager and extremely pent up.

11. Você Me Faz Dançar
Korean Drama - 2021, 8 episodes
Best Build Up
'OH We kissin kissin now'
KBLs coming for my throat. This entire drama was sweet and slightly painful and angsty. And their first kiss was no different. They were already living together, and denying how they felt.
-
12. Nossa Simulação de Namoro
Korean Drama - 2023, 8 episodes
What is with me and drunk/tipsy first kisses??????? Let's all not look too deep into that. Now, this is in my top 10 of KBLs. Their first kiss was soooooooo good. Seven-plus years of waiting and done so well.

13. Até nos Encontrarmos Novamente: A Série
Thai Drama - 2019, 17 episodes
Swoonablity
'If someone kissed me like that it would end my life'
DeanPharm that college couple that got married after graduation and have been married since. Love is pure and their first kiss is like The First Kiss couples dream about. Dean being on the absolute Edge and Pharm being sassy and possessive just tipped him over. This kiss as giving 'we have been dating, Finally' That added effect of seeing the red string over tied around their fingers???? SWOON.

14. HIStory3: Armadilha
Taiwanese Special - 2019, 20 episodes
I LOVE this drama but the first kiss was lacking. The rooftop one was sweet but the one I am counting is the hospital room kiss. TangYi just FULLY LOUD n PROUD claiming his man. So sweet and also so much buildup.
