Now, on to the next one-- Maybe I'll flip a coin between : 'The Eclipse', 'Dangerous Romance', 'Manner of Death', and 'Last Twilight'.

Word of advice save Dangerous Romance for last or drop it all together IMO

lol the ONLY reason I want to watch it, is to figure out why people love Perth and Chimon-- but I keep seeing mostly bad reviews ;;

People love Perth and Chimon together? I really don't see such great chemistry between them and Dangerous Romance wasn't that good (it started nice and went downhill so fast).

I've seen some fan videos on YT and stuff (insert laugh cry emoji) but idek at this point ;; should I be watching 'Love by Chance' instead for Perth ??? The consensus seems to be leaning towards skip it,  for 'Dangerous Romance'.

Love by Chance

Well it was a nice watch; the ending left me unfulfilled to say the least. Personally I prefer season 2  with TinCan.

I recommend this order :)

The Eclipse

Manner of Death

Last Twilight

Maybe I'm biased because the reincarnation theme reminds me of "Until We Meet Again", which is one of my all-time faves. But as you say, just Changha is reason enough to re-watch. (heart emoji goes here)

Until We Meet Again! One of first BLs… But the vibe is so different to UWMA. Anyway, Changha… (dreamy emoji).

Just finished '2 Moons 2'! It was entertaining and the couples were cute. Won't be watching the prequel or sequel because I mainly watched for the cast.  Rating : 7/10

Now, on to the next one-- Maybe I'll flip a coin between : 'The Eclipse', 'Dangerous Romance', 'Manner of Death', and 'Last Twilight'.

I definitely recommend these two, Manner of Death and Last Twight.

I guess I’ll skip Dangerous Romance  :p

Finished ep. 6 of Last Twilight and Jimmy as Mhork is melting my heart. Can't keep my eyes off him. He is fantastic in this series. After a long day of work I can't wait to watch him again tonight. 

Just passing this post along from another thread - Entire quote below is by Badass Bunny and refers to the lack of LGBT articles on MDL:

Question is anyone here aware of the 10 episode Thai drama called Intern In My Heart which has a side BL couple?

I'm really enjoying this drama. This side couple is so cute; I tune in every week to see how they'll progress. It's a little slow burn but worth it  . I wish more people would give this drama a chance. The main couple is also great,  no drama just supporting each other. That's what I love to see.

"Love By Chance" and "Dangerous Romance" are very different series; among other things, LBC is much more comedy. I think both are worth watching. Their MDL average ratings are almost identical.

Yes, "Dangerous Romance" wasn't what it could have been, especially in the later episodes, but I still enjoyed it. Perth and Chimon are such good and engaging actors, even if the chemistry between them feels more like buddies than lovers (also when they're doing fan service events). "Love By Chance" is a BL classic and one of my all-time faves (although perhaps I'm nostalgically biased because it was one of my first BLs). In both series, Perth plays a high school student, but back then (2018) he really was a high school student (16yo) and for a first-time leading role just stunningly good. It's really interesting to see Perth then and Perth now.

As to "Love By Chance 2", there are two major flaws: The absence of Saint (and thus also Ae's tiresome moping without Pete), and the way the events from the first series were retconned (i.e. repeated but with significant and confusing changes) - so be forewarned, especially if you watch LBC2 directly after LBC. Despite these and other flaws, I also really like the second series for one reason: I love Tin & Can (especially Plan Rathavit, so who is cute and funny). So my advice is this: If you watch the first series and are disappointed by the ending, and if you desperately want to see Tin & Can's happy ending, continue with the second series.

But the vibe is so different to UWMA.

(re my comparison of "First Love Again" to "Until We Meet Again")  Yes, you're absolutely right. They're very different series - UWMA is also much longer and more complex with the much heavier backstory, while FLA has the unique gender twist. But in both cases, the reincarnation theme makes for a powerful love story.
