성균관 스캔들 (SungGyunGwan Scandal), currently airing 재미있는 drama.
As with most mainstream Korean dramas, the appeal lies not in the actual gayness, but in the gay potential. The main character is a poor girl who dresses as a male scholar to earn money (illegally) and eventually gets coerced into attending a royal all-male academy (also illegally). Her nickname becomes 대물=Big Thing=a euphemism for a big penis, and both of her male roommates (one of which she is in love with) fall in love with her and develop an obsession with her "feminine" appearance, even while disguised as a male. Inner struggles and secret gay longing ensue. See video for the gay kiss.
I may or may not be obsessed with this, the drama's theme song.
