One of the BEST series ever <3
For those of you who love light hearted shows then this show is THE ONE...Only boo touches on topics that involve the behind the scenes of idol culture as well as the entertainment industry. They mask the sad topics with Keen's amazing acting as Moo distracting everyone with the comedy aspect. It is also to note that this is one of Sea Talay and Keen's first acting roles and they killed it beyond my expectations. Like I said before, Only Boo has comedic aspects to it that are very obvious in the trailers and pre-eps. What they don't tell you is how emotionally involving this show actually is. Their light hearted and comedic acting makes anyone who watches it fall in love. Watching this show makes you so emotionally involved that whenever they confess their love to each other...it actually makes you cry.
The story line progression is amazing and I am a person who will drop a show if the storyline doesn't go in a straight line. The episodes actually take you step by step into the character's personas and daily lives that it makes it easy to follow. I absolutely appreciate the way that this story starts and ends. It makes you feel as if you've known them since day one.
The characters in the show are also amazing. Starting with Kang and Moo played by Sea Talay and Keen Suvijak. They are honestly the best pair ever. They love and respect each other mutually making them the sweetest pair to date. I love they way their dynamic is presented to us, the ultimate golden retriever and black cat energy. Their ups and downs being navigated together as characters showing us that it is easy to love each other regardless of gender. We'll move onto Potae and Payos played by Aun and Ashi. They are the problem couple. Their dynamic was within the misunderstanding troupe. I usually don't like that as it absolutely boils my blood by how easy they can solve the situation. However, with Aun and Ashi's acting? It made me so emotional that I had no time to get mad. Last are the side characters Jang, Shone, and Neth played by Louis, Book, and Milk. Honestly, they played their roles so well I actually grew to resent Shone, fall for Jang, and smile whenever Neth showed up. The perfect side characters. They really made the show more enjoyable than it already was.
The ost and cinematography was perfect. The ost was so light hearted and enjoyable that I didn't skip over the intro. I watched this show a few months ago and I'm still listening to the songs daily. The cinematography really knows how to set the mood, changing the light and atmosphere every time something different happens.
Overall, this is one of the contenders of perfect 10/10 series in my list. I loved this so much, the concept, the music, the fx, the cast, the acting, e.t.c. I love this cast and so should you in my opinion. I hope to see Sea Talay and Keen in another gmmtv series next year!

You would be pleasantly surprised by the level of intimacy in this BL
I highly enjoyed this series. Such an all around feel good, teeth achingly sweet and romantic BL!Moo is hands down one of my favorite BL characters ever. He's so adorable, annoying in a lovable way, cheeky, funny, cute, a sly fox, and has so many more traits. I just loved his character so much. He definitely brought the best and biggest energy to this show. I really like how well Moo was written. His straighforward, slightly (more like very) awkward/unskilled but sincere method of flirting with Kang was so fun to watch. I liked that his woo-ing attempts did not come across as creepy or too much, I was always happy watching his antics and seeing how Kang would react to him.
Speaking of Kang, one of the greenest flags ever. His character is a lot more toned down in terms of energy and personality but he was also a great character to watch. He's the mature and reasonable one in the relationship, he's more stoic in the beginning and is your classic tsundere who speaks in harsh ways but turns around and smiles to himself when no one's looking. As his relationship with Moo started growing, I loved seeing him open up more and flirt back with Moo and watching him be more expressive. The dynamic between Moo and Kang was refreshing. I loved that Moo, being the younger one, was the chaser constantly approaching Kang and trying to woo him,; while Kang, the older one, was shy and flustered by Moo's directness. Ugh, so fun!
The plot was very well executed, pacing was really well done (i loved the use of time skips), and the writing was great too. Acting overall was great too, most of the cast seem to be new to the industry but they all did amazing jobs. There's a fair bit of angst and emotionally heavy scenes towards the end that were so well acted, so kudos to the cast for that.
I also really loved the 2nd male lead pairing!! Classic best friends to lovers trope which was also well done.
Although the NC scenes in this series is on the mild scale, you get a lot of intimacy from both couples so i was extremely satisfied with the pairings and their romance. There's awkward kisses, but it came across as sweet to me because it felt like it was part of the plot given the lack of experience the characters had before each other.
Anyway overall, a really good series. You get a funny, feel good, perfectly paced plotline with no time wasted on unecessary scenes, two adorable, intimate and uber romantic couples with abundant chemistry, and a GREAT OST packaged in a 12 episode series. Definitely recommend!

What's the point?
I hadn't planned to watch this series, but when I saw the good ratings I wanted to give it a try.Alas, the script is non-existent. The characters are flat and have no depth. It's supposed to be a light comedy, but only the lightness is there without the comedy, and the sound effects weigh it down. I'm not interested, so I'm giving up.
GMM has a hard time producing inventive series these days. The Thai BL industry in general has a similar problem. The Koreans are doing much better!

Episode 2 1/4 is a RIOT!
I’m only up to epiisode 2 2/4, but ep. 2 1/2 cemented its place in my heart. This series has a quality about it. There’s some great story, it’s well-written, the acting is good, and obviously that means the director is good, as well. This episode was funny, smart, nuanced, and just, all-around, FUN!Was this review helpful to you?
Mignon, douillet et réconfortant…
J'avais besoin d'une histoire légère et mignonne, sans crises de larmes ou de parents diaboliques. C'est ce que j'ai trouvé avec Only Boo!. Il m'est arrivé de sourire, de rire, et même de faire des petits bruits de satisfaction. Même sans être la cible, j'ai passé un bon moment, car il m'a permis de laisser mes pensées de côté. Et c'est précisément ce que je cherchais.Moo (Keen Suwijak Piyanopharoj) rêve de devenir idole, au détriment de sa mère. Dans l'idée de lui faire passer l'envie, elle décide de l'envoyer loin de la ville, en espérant également qu'il travaillera plus sérieusement. Là-bas, il fait la rencontre de Kang (Sea Dechchart Tasilp) qui aide sa mère au restaurant après avoir mis en pause ses études en art. Moo croit en son rêve et n'en démord pas, peu importe si ça lui attire des ennuis. Son amitié avec Kang va le pousser à grandir. En retour, grâce à Moo, Kang va recommencer à poursuivre ses propres rêves. Ils se sont complétés, sans pour autant devenir dépendants l'un de l'autre. Keen Suwijak Piyanopharoj et Sea Dechchart Tasilp ont étés convaincants, et même meilleurs que certains acteurs récurrents de ces dernières années.
Leur relation est progressive. Doucement, on les regarde devenir amis alors qu'ils partagent des moments banals du quotidien. Lentement, les sentiments se développent, et ce qui est davantage mignon, c'est de les voir tomber amoureux. Côte à côte, ils grandissent. C'est adorable de les voir faire ensemble, et individuellement. Pas de grandes scènes intimes, à la place, de petits et jolis baisers. C'est amplement suffisant pour un drame comme celui-ci, car c'est raccord avec son ambiance.
L'histoire est presque familière du genre. Elle ne connaît pas de grands retournements de situations sorties de nulle part, ni de scènes terriblement embarrassantes. C'est cohérent dans un schéma peu risqué, mais efficace. La seule ombre au tableau est le dernier épisode précipité. Quelques concessions auraient pu rendre le final meilleur.
En bref, Only Boo! est un BL mignon, douillet et réconfortant. Le genre d'histoire oubliable, mais qui vous fait sourire, tout en vous faisant oublier vos tracas du quotidien le temps de son visionnage.

¿Mi plato favorito del año? Only Boo!
Si tuviera que hablar de una serie que me dejó más que satisfecha, con sabores que me hicieron disfrutar cada segundo, hablaría de esta.Mi comedia romántica favorita del año. Lo tiene todo: personajes simpáticos, trama interesante, desarrollo dinámico, amor no correspondido, luchar por los sueños y una dulce relación que te sacude el corazón.
Moo es un personaje que desde el minuto uno me cayó extremadamente bien, terminé adorándolo con su humor tan natural y su personalidad tan característica. Se complementa tan bien con Kang que cada segundo en pantalla de ellos me encanta.
Tae y Yos también me gustaron muchísimo, si bien toma más tiempo que su relación se concrete, empaticé tanto con Yos que no podía aguantar un episodio más para verlos juntos.
Una serie increíble en todo sentido, la vería una y mil veces. A pesar de sus momentos emocionales que me hicieron derramar unas lágrimas, la pasé super bien mirándola y me divertí mucho. La voy a extrañar.

A Beleza na Simplicidade
Foi tudo lindo e apenas reafirmar o escrevi aqui em outrora.O BL foi perfeito, é uma prova de que nem tudo precisa ser superproduzido (com atuação e produção) para fazer uma série divertida e divertida - se for feito da maneira certa, às vezes o melhor caminho é o mais simples. Um trabalho muito bem feito do roteirista e diretor, Golf Sakon Wong em parceria com a GMM.
Enfim, um BL para você rir e ficar xonado com o jeito bobo e ao mesmo tempo "romântico" dos atores.
A interpretação de atores consideravelmente novos no meio da indústria Boys Love foi perfeita, nem preciso mencionar em relação aos consagrados.
Penso que faltou apenas uma ênfase maior ao sonho de Kang, já que quando era novo seu sonho foi interrompido para que tivesse tempo em ajudar a sua mãe, embora o BL mostre que ele segue a vida, mesmo que de forma indiscreta, mas eu penso que poderia ter sido ainda melhor, Assim como o romance entre Potae e Payos.
Essa mistura de bobo com fofo deixa a gente mais cativado ainda....
O Moo tem todo meu respeito o cara não quer saber de problemas, apenas quer viver o amor dele sem se preocupar com essa "historinha" dos outros.
A GMM fez este BL de forma, acredito eu, para aproximar mais as pessoas e mostrar mesmo que vale a pena lutar pelo amor, pelos sonhos e desejos.
Gostei do casal secundário, ter progredido, foi pouco, mas foi, e espero que no próximo EP eles tenha um pouco mais de tempo também.

un colpo al cerchio, un colpo alla botte
serie nettamente divisa in 2 parti: fino all'episodio 9 è una serie molto carina con personaggi adorabili che si innamorano teneramente senza sottotrame tossiche e comunicando efficacemente tra di loro. C'è anche una coppia secondaria contraddistinta purtroppo dal clichè della mancanza di comunicazione e dei malintesi inverosimili, cosa che si protrarrà fino alla fine della serie. Questa prima parte è sicuramente molto leggera e forse anche banale, ma mi piace tantissimo, in quanto in realtà non mi piacciono trame inutilmente complicate e mi piace semplicemente vedere la storia di due ragazzi che si frequentano e si innamorano l'uno dell'altro in mezzo alla vita comune di tutti giorni.Nella seconda parte, episodi 10-12, arriva il dramma: Kang e Moo sono costretti a lasciarsi a causa del contratto da idol di Moo che vieta di avere relazioni sentimentali. Questa seconda parte non mi piace affatto, sia a causa di diverse incongruenze di trama, sia perchè mi è sembrato che la serie tendesse a giustificare troppo questo tipo di contratti, che ritengo assolutamente abominevoli. Innanzitutto non ho capito perchè i ragazzi sono rimasti sorpresi dalla clausola del contratto che vieta le relazioni: si tratta di una cosa risaputa, lo sanno in tutto il mondo che nei contratti da idol vengono inserite queste clausole, come può non saperlo un ragazzo che ha come sogno quello di diventare un idol?? Inoltre già prima di firmare il contratto la mamma, poi il cugino e poi lo stesso Kang hanno chiesto a Moo di cancellare dai social i video con lui e Kang assieme: per quale motivo avrebbero chiesto di fare questa cosa se non sapendo, come sanno tutti, che nel contratto sarebbe stata inserita una clausola di quel tipo? Come detto mi sembra che la serie tenda a giustificare questo tipo di contratti: la mamma, il cugino, Kang, la manager, il membro anziano del gruppo, tutti si comportano come se questa clausola fosse assolutamente giusta e normale e hanno parole "sagge" per giustificarla e difenderla nei confronti di Moo, che invece viene fatto apparire come un ragazzino immaturo che non capisce che quella clausola è "giusta" e che non deve far altro che adeguarsi. Del resto nella realtà i produttori della serie fanno la stessa cosa con i propri attori sotto contratto, poichè le condizioni contrattuali e il problema dei fan tossici sono molto simili per gli idol e per gli attori di serie b-l, e quindi i produttori certamente non possono condannare qualcosa che fanno loro stessi. Questi ragazzi vivono in condizioni di lavoro alienanti, sono costretti a recitare costantemente una parte e sono derubati della loro vita privata, della privacy e della libertà di amare chi vogliono dai produttori e dai fan tossici, trovo tutto questo aberrante e trovo aberrante che la serie tenti anche di giustificarlo.
Il finale è affrettato, semplicistico e inverosimile: Moo chiede alla casa di produzione di eliminare la clausola, e la casa di produzione acconsente senza problemi e senza nessuna discussione: se era così semplice perchè non lo hanno fatto prima?
Alla fine tutti vengono accoppiati: la coppia secondaria, l'amica di Kang, Jang, il cugino di Moo.
Il voto è una media tra la prima parte che mi è piaciuta molto, e la seconda parte che non mi è piaciuta per niente, non per l'argomento, ma per lo svolgimento. Sarebbe auspicabile che altre serie portassero alla luce la problematica dello sfruttamento degli idol e degli attori bl e la problematica dei fan tossici, ma inquadrando il tutto sotto una accezione negativa, come è nella realtà, e non cercando di giustificare il tutto come fa questa serie.
