Because I Want You

Hae Ju is a struggling freelance video producer drowning in debt, while Ji An is an aspiring actor who can't catch a break. When a viral video accidentally frames them as a romantic couple, they decide to lean into the lie. Launching a YouTube channel as a fake gay couple proves to be an instant hit, bringing in much-needed income and visibility. But as their on-screen chemistry deepens and their carefully crafted personas start to blur with reality, the line between performance and genuine feeling becomes dangerously thin. This 8-episode Korean BL miniseries explores the vulnerability of pretending to be in love—and the terrifying risk of falling for real. With tender performances from Kim Jin Kwon and Kim Ye Chan, *Because I Want You* is a heartfelt, slow-burn romance that asks: what happens when a business arrangement becomes the most honest thing in your life?
