The tension, the chemistry, the gradual emotional unraveling—it was executed with such perfection that it set an unbeatable standard for the trope. 💕💗No one compares! YOU HAVE TO WATCH IT! YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT

is it really that good? YES!!!
my first ever gmmtv bl, I wasn’t expecting much since I thought it’s just a regular rivalry Highschool drama but NO, I’m wrong. The fact that they were born to go against eo, born to compete, born to hate eo without even knowing they fell for each other and had to keep it all a secret. I love how the story is so realistic. the chemistry is way too good, I swear I cried because I didn’t want it to end, I love them patpran. I swear after that I went to watch every interview they had. the osts are so good specially ‘just friends’ and ‘our song’ it really apply towards the actual plot and I love it. 10/10 I RECOMMEND IT SOO BADDD!!Was this review helpful to you?
My most re-watched show
The mains do a fantastic job, their chemistry is off the charts, and the story is great. Personally I wasn't a fan of how the show ended but it doesn't effect my overall rating of the show. The heartfelt moment after they realize their feelings for each other was beautiful. They should have won all the awards right there. The supporting cast was really good too. I loved seeing good supportive friendships rather than people just there with the label "friend" and not really contributing anything other than comic relief. If I actually cared about being one of those BL couple fanatics, this show would have made me their fan.Was this review helpful to you?
the characters have crazy chemistry
it was a great show, totally recommend it! Both acting of the main characters is very good!! The storyline itself is cute and funny. I love how they overcome their selves in order to love each other. it’s very sweet. I wish for everyone to find a live like theirs!!! it’s such an awesome show, they got me writing a review and I never do that. Freaking amazing work, congrats to the story writer, the director and all the stuff that worked on this show. Also I’m going to say it again, one of the best acting ever!Was this review helpful to you?

This was amazing
Y'all... I loved this... no spoilers, but I loved this, and I know everyone and their mother loved this (well... this may not be a mom kind of show) but I loved it so much, it ate, I loved it. It just made me super happy. I truly don't think I've ever been this content with the ending and just the everything in a show, like everything about it was really good, and honestly the things that I might have a small issue with are so small and insignificant that they don't even effect the rating I'm giving it, like this might be one of the few 10/10 BL's I've seen (Not Me is 10/10 too tho dw dw) Like its not even that this is my new fav show or that it's even in my top shows I've seen, but it was just so good and complete and made me happy that I just loved it even though its not my all time favorite (idk if that makes sense) ANyways, it was really good 10/10 would recommend, would watch againWas this review helpful to you?
Bad Buddy Best BL 2025
I love the story, characters, I love that it did not contain rich CEO using status to intimidate bully his subordinate into a relationship. I enjoy some of the BL but most of them have the same stereotype story line. I am not of the community but I support and encourage more stories like bad buddy. everything about this show was truly amazing. It did not sensationalize or sexualize the characters, it did not put the narrative that LGBTQ focus their sexuality onto someone else. I recommende this show. I will watch it again. hoping for more of these charactersWas this review helpful to you?

I wish I could inject this show into my veins
Before I get into my review, I find it imperative that I mention my list of Pat’s best t-shirts:- “I’d rather hunt with Dick Cheney than ride with Ted Kennedy” (absolutely wild pull and a wild statement)
- Tim Hortons (which has 10 locations in Thailand to be fair)
- Baseball mom (Worn in one of the most pivotal scenes in the show)
- Hilton Head (Pretty sure this is a town in South Carolina)
- White Castle (which has no locations in Asia lmao)
- Proud to be a Noles Hater (I get the whole rivalry thing, but why college teams in Florida?)
- California shirt with “heir bin ich mensch heir kauf ich ein” below the logo which means “here I am human, here I shop” in german
- Sex Air & Sun
- Lucky Charms
Also, why does that bar have a near-life-size Hulk statue with a hole in the pants opening up his entire asscrack to the world? Nbd, just wondering…
Acting:
Everyone did an amazing job in this. They really brought this story to life it wasn’t stilted at all even in some of the cornier scenes. Ohm and Nanon were so absolutely phenomenal. Nanon’s side eye had me cackling and his look of incredulity was so real 10/10. The supporting cast were all amazing too. BRAVOOO
Writing:
Were there a couple of questionable story decisions in this? Sure sure sure. I mean, be so ffr rn with that rugby player not only being strapped w/o a holster, but then pulling it out to threaten/fight someone because of a rugby match in a nice area of the city? But I digress, this shit still slapped through and through like idec lmao. Some of those lines were evil to my little gay heart. Pat unknowingly casually destroying Pran a little bit inside when he said, “let’s see you find someone half as good as me” is diabolical writing in that scene… Idec if it made no sense that they had to not only fund and find the materials for the bus stop (that as it was before the fight definitely cost around $500 at most plus the cost of the security camera), but they also had to design and build it for some reason. And did the sponsorship thing make any sense either? No. But again, all of this will not keep me from rating even the story as high as I am abandoning rationality for this one. Plus, overall it's a great story so whatever.
Chemistry/Romance/Kissing:
The chemistry was utterly insaaaane, my guyyy. They were so good at portraying rivals, normal young guys, maybe friends, two bros in a limbo of ambiguity, two dudes openly yearning for each other, bros in love, boyfriends, etc. It was weird going to MDL to check info about a character and being reminded that Pran and Pat are fictional and not a married couple somewhere in Thailand rn. This was such a good romance. Beginning to end, through and through. The kissing was well performed, believable/realistic.
Side characters:
I just want to note that Korn and Wai and the rest of those idiots had me ready to throw hands. Korn became a homie and then I was left with all that hate directed at Wai bc how are you gonna act like that at your age smh. Then Wai became a bro so ig it’s alright… I’ll still beat the shit outta those parents though. Grown ass adults holding grudges to that extent… You’d think someone was murdered and Pat’s dad got away with it or some shit. Girlypop, I get you’re mad and I’m not saying you can’t be but like look at your life now, you’re fine, work this out with a therapist or like meditate on it for a while, geez.
Music/SFX/Audio:
Music was good. Obv those songs Pran wrote were corny as hell, but I can embrace the cringe for them. There were also obv some goofy ass SFX but it fit for the most part, just took a little bit to adjust to the use of them. But most notably, how many times did they peak the mic in this series LMAOOOOO. I stg I was cackling every time that mic peaked, it was hilarious.
This was just so amazing. First episode started out and I was like wtf is happening, why are these freshman architecture and engineering majors having a fist fight? Go do your homework, nerds. But after a little while, something hit me and my eyebrows shot up and my smile got all big and goofy and I had to laugh because damn, they really got me with this one. GOOOD SHIIIIIIIII. Someone find a way to put this into a liquid that I can shoot into my veins regularly.

Rodzice nie pozwalają na wzajemną znajomość Pata i Prana
Film był wciągający.Smutne jest to że ich rodziny są złe na sobie nawzajem i muszą się ukrywać z przyjaźnią a później miłością .Ale udaje im się przechytrzyć swoich rodziców i koniec końców są razem ze sobą (powiedzieli rodzicom i niektórym znajomym ,że zrywają ze sobą) .❤️
Uwielbiam scenę gdy Pat i Pran są w pokoju i tulą się do siebie i w pewnym momencie puka do nich Korn i pyta się czemu tak długo Patowi zaszło pójść otworzyć drzwi .🤫

I wasn't expecting this to be that good!!
I actually heard about this series 2 years ago i think and i only watched it now. I thought it was overrated and yk the typical thai bl you watch, my thought was proven wrong, this series left a huge impact on my views on thai bls that are popular, ever since i watched it ive started to watch other Thai bls, this series was the 2nd one i actually finished. Now the series IT SOO GOOD, the plot is great especially the acting, the acting was so good to the point people started to think they were actually together. I want a season 2 please gmmtv. Overall a nice series i would recommend it to my friends, only if they weren't homophobic lols. 🙉🙉Was this review helpful to you?
First Episode
It fell short of depth. The motivation was not substantially established. BL has already evolved so much but this seems has not improved- maybe because of the director. What is obvious in thus episode is that, it just meant to make you focus on the actors but not on their characters and the story. (very much like brightwin in the 2gether the series). Hype was more on the actors. Chemistry of the characters (not the actors) seem forced too. Nevertheless, this is just the Fist Episode, let’s give this series a chance!Was this review helpful to you?
A beautiful, funny, wild ride
I love this show with my whole soul. It made me cry soooo much in the best way and omg. PAT! Their love is beautiful and the generational trauma is realll. The last episode had me crying like a baby even though it ended hopefully. also the product placement was insane, tho usually forwarded the plot which was v impressive!This was the third BL show I ever watched and 🥲🥲🥲 wow I don't know if I'll ever find one I love more.
