best thai gl ive watched in a while

I've never been super into thai gls. My first one was 23.5 which i thought was cute but mediocre at best and to be honest, I have yet to complete a thai gl (i always never watch the last episode; idk why) and i've watched a lot, ranging from pluto to love design.

Anyways! I only have good things to say about this show. This is coming from someone that doesn't keep up with gmmtv dramas or couples. I knew Jingjing from Whale store xoxo (which i never finished, sorry), and I was aware they were probably going to put her in a partnership, but I was assuming it was going to be with Piploy or something. But long story short, I did not know a thing about Janjingjing and had no idea what to expect but I decided to watch this after seeing clips on twitter and my expectations have been exceeded by miles so far!

The acting is spectacular. I'm not even exaggerating. After watching up to episode 3 (all that was out at that point), I watched Muteluv, which also starred Janjingjing and their characters were so different; it's like they are completely different people in EWB. From watching clips of them being themselves, Jan seems very similar to her character Lal, so maybe it's extra easy for her but if you compare her performance to her annoying ass character in Muteluv (no shade), it's like, wow... she's really good at acting. Jingjing's character Wine is so different from her real personality. and she portrays her so well that I genuinely forget that I'm watching a show with actresses and not, like, idk, reading a fictional story. Their chemistry is spectacular!

I think for a show based around office jobs, it's genuinely very good plot-wise, like they're making it as interesting as it could possibly be. No complaints there! Although it is a little sad how the side couple with Kapook and Ciize only get introduced when the show is already halfway done. Season two maybe...

And for the music, I love the opening! It's so catchy. At first I thought it was overstimulating, but it has grown on me and I listen to it throughout my day to keep my mood up lmao. My only pet peeve is that I am not a fan of when they play that song that goes "Kiss my cherry lips" whenever they make out like it's kind of fitting?? But also it does distract from the scene, like I would prefer if they just played slow romantic music like they normally do in gls.

Rewatch-wise, I have already done a rewatch. 👍 I really like this show and it genuinely makes me laugh

my goodness i'm so obsessed with janjingjing

honestly, this episode was really really fun. The chemistry, the acting and just EVERYTHING. I feel like this episode did a great job introducing the characters while also showing that there’s so much more to the story coming later on. That’s what really captivated me from the beginning. You’re always thinking, “wait, what’s going to happen next?” “wholikes who?” “willshe say yes tobeing friends with benefits”

and I can’t forget how funny this show is because janhae reallyit so well. she's literally THE comedy herself LOLL. she's just being herself, and i can’t help but laugh every time she’s on screen. I’m also so in awe of jingjing. sheportrays the strict, troubled character so well, and when she’s drunk ... omg , she actually nailed that scene. you can clearly tell the difference of when she’s drunk, that there's another side of her that showsand she just pulls it off

i already love this series so much, and I’m really excited for what's more to come. I keep rewatching it and noticing more details every time. I’d definitely say give it a few episodes because I really think it’ll be worth your time!

GL romcom of the year

I love the novel so much and I appreciate how devoted it is to the novel. I can't wait for the scenes and conflict they have added in aside from the things in the novel cause I know this production is good for those scenes and I know JanJingjing will nail those. My favorite part is where they talk before they go home like a REAL talk outside of work.

10/10 Romantic and funny

10/10 Romantic and funny
What a wonderful GL! It blends comedic humor perfectly, the actresses have such a natural lightness to their performances, the story is engaging and captivating from the very beginning, and I'm really looking forward to the next episodes. Lal and Wine are two completely different characters, yet they are drawn to each other, and each one always has something to teach the other. The actresses Jan and Jingjing are absolutely amazing in these roles.
Amazing chemistry of JanJingjing, they really portrayed the LalWine accurately to the novel. This series will heal my leemhaina wound. I love the novel so much as much as this series does and I can't wait for them to fall deeper in the hole they dug starting with the benefits. This is just the beginning but the tension is giving.

Bom com ressalvas

Acho que esse era um GL em que muita gente tinha uma certa expectativa. Eu, particularmente, não curto muito tramas de amigos com benefícios, amigos coloridos e afins, porque geralmente gera um drama danado quando a questão do amor começa a dar as caras.

A Jan eu já conhecia de Cherry Magic. A JingJing eu conheci aqui e nossa! Que espetáculo de mulher, que sorrisão lindo que ela tem.

Na questão da compatibilidade das atrizes, achei que funcionou bem. Elas têm química e eu gostaria de vê-las em um próximo projeto.

Como casal, elas funcionam bem. Torci pelas duas durante a história e acho que formam um casal fofo e, quando a Wine não resolve se afastar do nada, são até levemente saudável.

O meu problema nunca foi a relação delas em si, mas sim a própria Wine. Depois de um tempo, o vai e volta acabou me cansando um pouco. Se eu não tivesse acompanhado a maior parte da série enquanto ela estava sendo lançada, provavelmente teria ficado com preguiça de continuar justamente por causa disso.

Tive um certo problema com a caracterização capilar de ambas. Além das falhas de continuidade, em que a cor e o aspecto do cabelo pareciam mudar entre as cenas, os apliques e o mega hair estavam bastante evidentes sempre que elas faziam algum movimento com os cabelos, deixando um acabamento artificial que quebrava um pouco a minha atenção.

No caso da Wine, foi mais a questão do mega hair muito óbvio. Já no caso da Lal, foi tanto o mega hair quanto a cor do cabelo dela, que uma hora parecia um loiro meio palha, depois cinza, castanho e rosa. Eu esperava aquele loiro mais vivo que aparece na capa atualizada do GL, então essa falta de consistência acabava desviando minha atenção da história. Essa questão da cor do cabelo da Jan me lembrou exatamente o que senti vendo o cabelo do Mark em Cherry Magic, coincidentemente.

Quando vi que o nome de uma das protagonistas era Wine, já fiquei super feliz, porque pensei: "opa, mais um personagem com o nome Wine que eu vou amar", já que, até então, o único personagem com esse nome que eu conhecia era o Wine de Perfect 10 Liners, de quem eu gosto e muito!

Mas, infelizmente, acredito que a Wine daqui foi a personagem que mais me decepcionou. Ela magoava a Lal sem necessidade. A situação da marmita que a Lal fez para ela, por exemplo: a Wine achou que a Lal tinha comprado e, por isso, jogou no lixo. Mas, mesmo se a Lal tivesse comprado, jogar no lixo foi uma falta de consideração tremenda.

Outra situação que me incomodou foi a forma como ela falou sobre o relacionamento delas na empresa. Precisava mesmo falar daquele jeito? Mesmo levando em consideração a questão do trabalho, achei desnecessário.

As vezes eu pensava que o problema da Wine era justamente esse: ela não pensava tanto nos sentimentos dos outros. Sempre que algo acontecia na vida dela, seja envolvendo o ex, os traumas ou o trabalho, ela acabava descontando na Lal, depois pedia desculpas e, pouco tempo depois, o ciclo se reiniciava.

Sobre a ameaça do ex dela para com a Lal. Ela poderia sim ter sido transparente com a Lal, elas poderiam pensar em algo juntas, pra já estarem preparadas pra confrontar todos. Mas naaaaao, terminar com a Lal, ficar de chororo e meio que humilhar a Lal na frente de todo mundo pra tirar a Lal da reta era melhor.

Já a Lal não foi nada além de uma grande green flag o GL inteiro. Era uma querida, sempre querendo confortar, estar ali pela Wine e apoiá-la. Mas senti que a Wine não respondeu à altura com as mesmas atitudes e deu uma bela escorregada em várias ações.

A questão da trama de escritório e dos problemas do trabalho eu achei meio chata, mas não sei se sinto isso com toda história de romance em escritório.

Dos personagens secundários, só gostei e realmente me recordo do casal das KapookCiize. Elas são fofas juntas, a trama delas é bem rápida, mas também com problemas de comunicação que prolongam o drama todo. Acho que poderiam ter introduzido a história delas um pouco mais cedo.

No geral, eu acabei deixando os últimos dois episódios passarem, e só fui assistir semanas depois. Quase que não finalizo a série, me exigiu um certo esforço pra terminar e quando acabou eu pensei: "Até que enfim!".
Não é ruim, só a Wine que me estressou aqui da minha casa mesmo.

My final thoughts on Enemies with Benefits ❤️

Honestly… I don’t have much to say because this series was simply a joy from beginning to end.

I already had a great feeling when Jane and JingJing were announced as the main pairing, and the trailer only confirmed it. In the end, the series even exceeded my expectations.

Jane and JingJing’s chemistry was amazing. The romantic scenes were sweet, the comedy genuinely made me laugh, and every episode left me excited for the next one. I never felt like the quality dropped. From the first episode to the finale, it was just pure enjoyment.

This is one of those GLs where I don’t even feel like looking for flaws or overanalyzing everything. I simply had a great time every single week, and sometimes that’s exactly what a series is supposed to do.

For me, it’s a true gem and one of the best GLs of the year. Its current rating is absolutely deserved.

Now all that’s left is to wait for the special episodes. I can’t wait! ❤️

Gl favorito do ano

Sem dúvidas o melhor Gl de 2026.
A cada episódio q se passava vinha junto de um misto de emoções inexplicáveis, cada episódio finalizado foi deixado rastros de sentimentos profundos e entendimentos minuciosos sobre tudo o que é o amor e como ele se comporta em cada situação.
Personagens com personalidades cativantes e tão mais interessantes ao decorrer de toda a série, cada um com seu desenvolvimento impecável, principalmente das protagonistas.
Do pouco q eu disse, nem 1% é o suficiente para descrever tamanha saudade que eu vou sentir de cada episódio. Fez parte da minha rotina, moldou meu humor positivamente, fez me sentir nostalgia de algo não vivido.
Agradeço muito a todos que participaram dessa obra prima... foi uma dose de serotonina em tanto ter esse gl presente em minha vida

It's okay to keep your boundaries

Workplace romance that revolves around the reality of work life, the mains don't have that cliché power imbalance, rather criticize the power imbalance at work, cuz overstepping personal boundaries just because ure the boss is not cute! Others say Wine's emotional behaviour is unreasonable but I think it is realistic for some people as she went through trauma and people are not 1D. Overal, relationships are portrayed well in this series! You can always count on Snap25, and now I'm a new JJJ fan!

Não tem um único episódio ruim

Nenhum episódio dessa série é ruim, todos são perfeitos. Os mais fraquinhos são provavelmente os últimos, mas isso é um problema que se repete em todo GL desde que eles começaram a sair: As produtoras simplesmente não sabem como finalizar as histórias.

O ultimo episódio podia ter sido melhor? Sim. Ele foi ruim? Não diria que foi, mas a gente merecia mais tempo de tela de LalWine isso sim. Já tá na hora de pararem de por conflitos aos 45min do segundo tempo, não precisamos ver mais conflitos. Nos deem fluffy por gentileza, o povo quer ver o CASAL SENDO FELIZ!!! POR FAVOR !!!

EWB é o exemplo perfeito de como fazer sucesso com um roteiro bem escrito e uma direção competente. Além claro de atrizes fenomenais. Antes mesmo de sair eu já sabia que essa serie seria hit, apostei tudo em EWB e não me arrependi, que serie incrível.
