pouring my thoughts/feelings here✒️

December 22

• Mind-blowingly beautiful script; deep, philosophic, intense. I stopped myself hardly from binge-watching. I took a break between the 6th to 7th episodes but binged it in half day. There was no unnecessary drama, no unneeded conversations, and the chemistry between all three leads was perfect! The acting was average in general meaning but pretty good considering how the Thai dramas' acting is. I cannot help but think how perfect it could be if Nadao Bangkok made it with its powerful team, but it was still one of the best Thai dramas I have ever watched for sure.

December 22

• Lovely as how it was.

December 22

• I was not expecting a great drama from that unusual and supernatural script. The second time I have had this feeling after My Teddy Bear. Grief, love, and coming out story of two young people. Everything was beautifully done, I cried till my eyes hurt. ♡

December 22

• Haha. Whut? Here we go again with a chopping issue. Who was who, what the story was, which year we are in, ... I feel sorry for the actors, neither of them didn't deserve to be in this drama at all. The only best thing about this drama is the OSTs.
• I am thankful that the story is pretty much wrapped up well but it is still not enough. It had potential and they wasted it.

January 23

• This was the worst K-BL I have ever watched! The acting was horrible with zero chemistry between the leads... I don't even want to talk about their kisses was one of the fakest kisses I've ever seen on the screen. Ah, did I say the story also was a mess... I wish I didn't ever start watching this. hahaha. Please go easy on us dear Korean BL industry...

January 23

• Except for its easy ending, I liked it very much. I however understand why they wanted to end it like all popular BL mangas' endings which is simple and not risky for viewers but cliche.
• What I liked the most was how they adapted this manga to the screen very well. They did a great job with manga-like effects, Framboise ahjussi was my favorite character. lol.

January 23

• Everyone is naked or in underwear with no concept or meaning. Why? This one is ridiculously explicit that no one needed it. Not an 'art drama/movie' for sure, just nonsense chaos
• Dropped: 5 of  9 eps watched.

January 23

• The reason why I liked this drama more than I expected might be because I was surprised by the quality since I had no expectations from looking at its rating.
• I agree that the story was chopped and not clear due to the short screen time, but they still did a good job imo.

January 23

• Neither BounPrem nor side couples had a proper story. Such a weak drama that disappointed long-waiting viewers.
• I hate how Win's hair kept changing scene by scene in seconds. It's all yellow in a scene, then the roots turn black in the next scene. I believe even rookie directors don't do that mistake. Annoying!
• And last, I don't know what kind of magic these Thai dramas have because even though I don't like them I cannot drop any, somehow always manage to finish... 

February 23

•  I don't understand why this good drama's rating is low. Maybe because of the age gap? But it still is pretty acceptable because of how the characters behave. Being an adult is not always related to age. I could relate to the characters and the situation here.
  In conclusion, I liked this drama lot! It's deep because full of life lessons and self-questioning, fluffy at the same time—a must-watch drama in my opinion.

February 23

• Dear Korean-BL makers who adapt manhwas to the screen, please stop doing it. With such short screen time, there is no way to be successful. It's painful to watch those great manhwas getting screwed. Thank you.

February 23

• Half of the show was all thirst and sexual tension between the leads, and the other half was a life lesson—a worth-watching mini-drama with great OSTs.

February 23

• A heart-whelming short drama. I really like these food/cooking-themed Japanese dramas. It made me feel better during one of the worst moments in my life ♡

February 23

• This one had all that I missed seeing in Taiwanese dramas and was waiting for for a long time. Happy to have it finally!!
• PS: I am not sure why we needed the side couples' story in this short drama. I liked RJ and Alex's story pretty much but still don't think it was necessary. I wish they have another drama that portrays their story only ~ director-nim, hear me please! lol.
• It was a solid one that deserved more attention for sure. I wish there were no unnecessary side couples. Also what was that Xun An's father's behavior? It was not acceptable. That's why my ratings went down to 8.5. 

February 23

• The story was too rushed and weak. The actors were "straight" as hell even their body language was screaming like there was no way of being a little gay in their real life. lol. Their chemistry was not bad but their average acting skills and weirdness toward each other were too much to enjoy the drama for me. Watchable only because of the workplace concept and good job dynamics.

March-May 23

• This drama has a cliché storyline but also new and fresh sides that I like. I am a fan of ForceBook's chemistry like how it was their prior drama. I remember watching Enchanté only because of their good chemistry as this one.
• I wish I could rate this one higher because of the healthy relationship between the leads. I remember it was similar in Enchanté. Other than that, this is a classic but good Thai-BL with loveable characters. I also like all the side characters and their cliche but nice stories.
• I hated how it got worse with passing episodes. The first half was good but the second... ahhh... was painful...! I was like, let's finish already. Sad.

March 23

• I don't understand why this drama's rating is low. I am aware of I also gave it a 7 but I usually rate dramas lower than how most people do. So, this was surprising for me. I liked the story and the chemistry between the leads. If it was written and played a little better, I am sure my rating was gonna be like 8-8.5. I liked the storytelling the most. We need these kinds of dramas more in dramaland. 

March 23

•  Whoa! I wasn't expected this sequel was going to be this good. It started ordinary but turned out great in the last episode. I loved how the photographer described the "real" Hira. Despite the unhealthy relationship between Hira and Kiyoi, this season shined with Kiyoi's character development and how he was more mature and full of love for his lover. I had no expectations from this season, and it surprised me really hard. lol.

March 23

• The chemistry between leads was good. The drinking theme was not portrayed well. I'm not sure if it was good enough, but since I've seen other worst ones, I could say it was watchable.

March 23

• I wasn't expecting this much strong start from it. Loving it!
• I wish there was more! I didn't feel like it since Blueming. This was too short T-T
• One of the best K-BL dramas. Will see if we have a better one in 2023. Loved this, looovedd!!

March 23

• Maybe because of my high expectations, I am disappointed. The production quality makes it bad. Sad.
• Okay, it started not that good but turned out well, making me happy. hehe.
• It had adequate screen time but could not portray the psychological traumas of both leads very well, which was the major disappointment of this drama for me. I wish it were written better because it had all the needs for a successful drama, like the actors' chemistry and their on-point acting skills.
• I wish there was no 7th episode. My all good feelings and also ratings went down because of it. It ended in 6th episode for me. Literally so disappointed...

March 23

•  I like Japanese dramas for a reason, boy!! Dramas are almost always full of life lessons and emotional rollercoasters, even with a basic storyline like this drama.

April 23

• I really liked it even with that annoying fake kisses. lol. It felt like I was watching my very first K-drama again. The taste was similar to my first time and that means they did a good job with this first long screen time BL for me. And all the OSTs... They were too good!!! I can't wait to see more dramas like this one soon. 

April 23

• The chemistry between leads is great. And, boy, aaah, I can't take my eyes off Net, he is so sexy. lol. 
• Sadly, they ruined the story by including a silly rapist boss in the plot. It was an average story before but now a bad one. I am mad.

April 23

• One of the best BLs ever for sure. A little bit too artistic for me but still love it a lot. Made me cry, made me swoon, made me feel alone, made me happy, made me hopeless, and also made me hopeful. Thanks for this masterpiece...  a must-watch drama for everyone.

August 24

• I usually don't write reviews for my rewatchings but this one is different. It was already memorable, but I think I was so obsessed with how they played with the camera too much giving me headaches, etc, and missed the real deal. Now, I am having the story itself in my deeps. Such a masterpiece this drama is... Always be on the top ten of my rewatching list.

April 23

• I don't get why Japanese BLs get such low ratings... I still don't understand after years of watching them. This was also a great one and I liked each minute of it. A must-watch for BL genre lovers imo.

May 23

• I think their chemistry is so good! Why do people criticize the drama so badly I don't get tbh.
• I put this on hold after the second episode because want to binge later. ^^
• Binging this now. And having a nervous breakdown because of how rushed again the story is. Why, why so rush? The chemistry between the leads is pretty good also their acting, so why? Because of the cuts in the story, the actors' relationship feels unrealistic also second-hand embarrassment hits more. I am bored of short unsuccessful K-BLs! Enough is enough, hear me writernim. (also, tell me who wrote this story, an 8-year-old boy? lol. it was too childish.)

May 23

• It's rare for me to watch 10 eps in one sit and haven't happened for a while. The plot is nothing special but still original and feels refreshed also not complicated and that's why it's watchable and not boring at all. I especially liked Aye's character and how he approached his crush. The book (1984) and Thai national history references were good though. I like those kinds of messages even though it's so obviously done unlike how Japanese dramas do.
• I liked the plot twist but it brought a big plot hole together. So, things happened, boys got betrayed each other, and how the hell were they suddenly forgiven? Without an apology and an explanation but only with feelings? Sorry, but it didn't make any sense, writernim. lol.
• One last thing; they never let us know who was seme and who was uke and this was one of the best sides of this drama. ^^

May 23

• This was not bad but,,,,weird, I guess? The idea was good but the chopping was sloppy.

May 23

• I like it so far. Why do people keep complaining about the latest K-BLs I don't get tbh. 
• And, Lee Dong Won, your visuals, especially your eyes, remind me of Moonbin, and it makes me happy but heartbroken at the same time... ♡
• This one was good, in my opinion, but just a little too rushed.

May 23

• Actually it was a cliche story but I still liked it.  

May 23

•  There was nothing new or original in the story but it still was so warm and cute. Both characters were loveable, side characters too. The comedy was good enough. My fav character was P' Tim, she was so lovely. My fav thing in this drama was definitely the cinematography, they filmed at many beautiful "Wat"s, and I loved that (I am being generous with my ratings only because of it.) It made me emotional because of my lovely Thailand memories from last fall. Both leads put effort into their roles but couldn't hide that they are rookies, especially Tor (Noey), since he was only 17 yo while filming. I liked it in total. Worth watching, will be relaxing for workday nights since it's light and warm.

June 23

• Ah, this makes me feel awkward. The chemistry between them is not bad but their acting is weak. They better didn't do that fake kiss scene, their love still was possible without that disturbing scene. ugh. I don't want to remember it at all. The plot was good but have done perfectly before by Our Dating Sim team. Also, Yoo Jae's affection doesn't seem like love, it is only jealousy in my opinion. He is alone and needs to be a favorite person of someone he trusts. If it is supposed to be love, then the filmmakers did a horrible job of portraying it in the wrong direction. 
• Ohh, it got worst after 7th episode. Who put this story together and thought it was worth it? chincha aaahhh... Horrible. It was torture.

June 23

•  One of my favorites, dear Mix. You shine as always. You and Earth need to separate your ways because when you do it, you will shine more than ever, I promise. And Earth, you're handsome and sexy as always, but you haven't improved your acting even a bit. So please leave Mix in his way to shine. I love you both, but you're not equal, so please be aware of it. 
• If I talk about the drama, lemme start with Jim's age. Close to 40? Like for real? Earth? He is so young for this. This drama didn't fit EarthMix at all.

June 23

•  I can't say I liked this season as much as the first. It was a weak continuation of the story.  

July 23

•  I wish this one was a little bit better in the meaning of the production. Otherwise, I liked it a lot.  

July 23

• The reason why I keep my rating high is their braveness to talk about sensitive topics. Some things feel really fake but still worth watching. 

July 23

•  I did not hate it and also did not like it. haha. There was something special about this movie and that's why I was able to finish it. Still, I would not recommend watching it because of its cliche and empty plot.  

July 23

• Again, I am ashamed of myself because enjoying this too much but let's call it my guilty pleasure. lol. I think this show's creative team is the best in this genre. I can't help but watch this show even without breathing like I am watching an action drama. lmao.
• This season was so much better than the first season which was already great in its genre. People in this show were all different and mature. I judged people, got emotional, got angry, got shy, and cried with them... I found myself not knowing how time passed while watching the episodes. I loved everything about this show. Can't wait for season 3!!

July 23

• Not the best. There was some missing emotion or point I don't know what it was exactly. The acting was phenomenal though. A worth watching movie indeed.  

July 23

•  I actually am still not sure how to rate this one. I hate murder-related stories especially if it ends with the murderer's happiness. I know they did not have a happy ending but it did not feel good. It still was worth watching though, and was not a bad one, imo.  

July 23

• The plot gets silly most of the time, but it makes no change how charming this drama is because it is also the cutest drama ever I've watched in a long time! I realized I never had this feeling since Bad Buddy. I love these two babies a lot. Gemini and Fourth are such great actors despite their very young age. They will shine in the future, no doubt.

July 23

• The best low-budget short LGBTQ movie I have ever watched! The acting, cinematography, music, everything was very well done. They said nothing and left everything incomplete but we saw their story not incomplete but complete.  

August 23

• I looove time-loop dramas. Let's see how it is gonna turn out!! 
• I am disappointed with the ending! It was a pretty good medical Thai drama only with some minor issues. Hoping the Thai film industry could keep making dramas with this quality.

August 23

•  What I liked the most is its simple and not overdramatized script, also the chemistry between the leads. The production felt amateur in some scenes but was acceptable overall. I am sure the song will be the most unforgettable thing in this drama to me because it was so good.

August 23

• I think the missing part was the acting. Maybe a little bit of their not-that-strong chemistry too? It still was a good drama. Worth watching.

August 23

• Even my love for Chiang Mai couldn't help but watch this drama. It was boring AF 
• Dropped: 2 of 6 eps watched.

August 23

•  It was so cute and calm. I loved how casual the acting was. One of the best Korean short movies ever.

September 23

• It had potential surely. There were some cute scenes, some confusing scenes, some badly edited scenes, and also some scenes with actors' poor screen chemistry (they looked so shy, lol). All the actors' voices were incredibly sexy, my ears were blessed. hehe. 
• My favorite actor was Jo Chan Hyun, he looks so mature despite his young age also his build is mesmerizing. Can't wait to see him on the screen more often. Hwaiting!

September 23

•  Even though there was not much conversation in this movie, the cinematography and silence told us all. Definitely loved this movie. A must-watch for this genre-lovers...

September 23

• I know I can't stand with Chinese dramas but I still want to finish this one. Let's fighting 하다!!
• This drama was one of the silliest dramas, but it was visually beautiful, better than any Chinese crime drama I've watched. Its action and crime concept was similar to KinnPorsche except for the very less skinship and censored bromance theme. lol.

October-November 23

• Short but cute. The story, acting, and chemistry were all on point.

October-November 23

• Huuuge plot holes, too many weak and cliche scenes... The actors did a good job but that's all. Sad.
• Oh, my Gawd! Is the plot real for real? It felt like I was watching 80's cliche dramas. hahahah. I can't stop laughing. It's unbelievable that they think people still get caught by tuberculosis infection and die. We live in the 2020s, pull yourself together yeorobun. #notworthwatching

October 23

• I've seen on the drama's page that someone said in the comment section, 'Misunderstanding in this drama is not bothering me a lot,' and I totally agree. This is one of my latest  Japanese favorite BL-dramas. I binged six episodes in one sit and can't wait to see the last two. 

October 23

•  I kind of feel sad for the actors because they did such a good job. But the story was too cliche and mostly didn't make sense. I gave it a 6, only for the actors...

October 23

• Oh, I knew that would be a disappointment, but I wouldn't expect this to be one of the worst ever. Why the hell did that storyline go all wrong?! I hated it! I watched it mostly at 2x speed and also skipped many scenes after the 6th episode. I gave it a 5.5 only because of how beautiful the actors were and also the seaside. That's all.

October 23

• My kawai boys, I know people don't understand you, but please don't feel sad because I love you. You will be missed.  

October 23

•  Although I am not a fan of Krist, Gavin is special to me. I started watching this drama for Gavin and stayed for him, but I also liked Krist in this one. There were silly parts of the story I didn't mind because it was only minor. If I could bear with sitting, I could have finished the drama in one sitting. lol.

October 23

• Because people say the sequel is not as good as this one, I am not willing to watch it but this one was a pretty good and satisfying mini-drama. I wish it were longer with this concept and the quality. I especially liked how the first episode was one's eye and the second from the other.  

October 23

• Such a lovely show it was... I liked the acting the most. I wish there was more. ^^

November 23

•  Such a sweet drama!! It was a nice coming-of-age first love story and both leads were too cute to deal with.

November 23

• Cute, light, and good. Similar to "a shoulder to cry on "but so much better. Some similarities with "my dating sim" too. Liked this one very much.

December 23

• Although it was a low-quality production, the vibe it gave was great. All the emotions passed through me and I loved it.  

December 23

•  Umm, there was no difference with the drama but still enjoyed this one.  

December 23

•  I liked the story also the acting. I wish it was longer.  

??? 23

• I definitely remember watching this in 2023 but exactly when that I have no idea. It was a psychological thriller and I liked it even though it was old af.

January 24

• Aaaaahh this was soooooo cute I was going to die of sweetness.  
• I am in love with that lovely-eyed boy, Akutsu Nichika. He is so beautiful. He looks like the Japanese version of Daniel Radcliffe with that eyeglasses!!

January 24

• I feel like I will throw up because of how cringe their love story is. lol. But they are still cute somehow.  
• I watched this so you don't. Please don't. Because you might have a nervous breakdown of its cliches. lol. They didn't even try to make this drama bearable, why would you bother watching it then?

February 24

• Uhm, this was too cute to criticize. I need a Sahara sensei for myself, too, ASAP. lol. I appreciate Japanese writers because of their capability to create different perfect boyfriend material-type characters.

February 24

• Low budget, cliche, tried to touch a sensitive topic but failed. Not sure if it was worth watching. But Tommy Alejandrino did a good job, for sure. And Rabin Josh gave me good moments with his beautiful face when he was on screen. lol

February 24

• Oh my.  Lee Tae Vin was too lovely in this drama and caused me to have a crush on him! I wish the side characters and also his partner were as good as him. Anyway, it still was a good one.

February 24

• I liked how it felt good even though what exactly happened was not shown.

March 24

• I will be honest about this drama and say it was perfect except for the being gay vs heterosexual part. I understand people can realize their sexual orientation late but still, I don't want to feel that 'I am gay for you' trope in dramas anymore.  
• I thought about myself while watching it and realized I was a person exactly like Hiro in my work-life. What he had been through was the same as mine and made me think of how messed up my life was. It felt a bit bitter but also gave me hope to fix things. It brought me deep meanings and made my day brighter thankfully.  #grateful

March 24

• This drama was the one that was missed for a long time and a nice ride because of its high school and also college life theme. I loved the friendship and the first love at the school vibe like we had in old Thai-BL dramas. But couldn't rate it higher with that cliche storyline. Sorry. Not bad and good for a daily watch in total.

March 24

• I loveed Kan Hideyoshi in this drama. The story had cliche parts but also adult-life themes so it was worth watching in total.

April 24

• It was good enough in the first half, then got weak after. So both couples' semes did horrible things to ukes and suddenly realized their love for them with no explaining story behind their unloveable behavior? It would have been better if they put more effort into the story development between couples. Things did not make sense at the end at all.

February 23-May 24

• I have mixed feelings about this drama. It touches on sensitive topics but I am not sure if their way of doing it is the best or not. Hoping to see better episodes next.
• Story 1- New Ship: I loved this one. The criticism was on point and the story was portrayed pretty well. The chemistry between Pan and Nott and the acting was pretty good. 8.5/10.
• Story 2- War of Managers: I don't think Bew deserved what he received from people around him, to be honest. What he had done was not forgivable in my opinion. Exception for that unnecessary ending, I liked this story. 7.5/10.
• Story 3- Y-Idol: I think this story was also similar to the past two because the message wanted to be given was the same. Passionate boys make mistakes and suffer from them. I don't understand why this show's ratings are so low because I don't think it's that bad. I especially liked the very realistic dynamics between idols-to-be boys. I know it was kinda mess but also the way they put the problematic side of the industry was great. 7/10.
• Story 4 - Wife: Not bad, the acting also the storyline were weak but the message was clear. I liked it. 7/10.
• As the final opinion, I don't think this drama deserves the hate it receives. I liked how they pointed out all the disastrous things that keep happening under the umbrella of the BL drama industry. Good job kiddos! It's fascinating that you had the passion and heart to put it on screen. 

May 24

• I don't understand why Taiwanese dramas are obsessed with step-brother love. It doesn't feel okay to normalize. I accept it under some circumstances but not like in this one. I am a supporter of the LGBTQ community but this is not about the gender. What they show in this drama is not something I can judge only as love. Love comes in different forms and family is a form of it. Why do they need to mix it up this much? It might be a cultural thing and is not my cup of tea. Sorry.

May 24

• It was definitely worth watching. The acting was phenomenal. The only thing I am really upset about is the length of the episodes. It could have been better if they made it a 16-episode-long full drama rather than 6 episodes with 25 mins...  
• P.S: I am officially in love with Furuya Robin ❤️

May 24

• A hidden gem!! I loved it even though it was amateur and low-budget. It has been such a long time since I felt like this. That heavy grayness was so damn dominant as the title says itself. Also the short but meaningful conversations, and the tension that never decreased... Let's not forget that lovely intro also the music... All was lovely. A must-watch.

May 24

• I can't help but rate it higher than it deserves because of how nice the aftertaste is. The storytelling was cute and I liked how they kept it casual and not complicated. It also had good coming-of-age messages.  And so I rated it 8. lol. 
• By the way, Jung Yeo Joon was shining as Choi Balg Eum, he has a bright future ahead. Also my boy, Kim Sung Hyun, you're lovely and good at acting. Wishing both of you success and happiness (:

July 24

• The acting was a bit weak, especially Sakai Sho's acting as Tanaka. It was kind of boring but still watchable in total. 

July 24

• I loved this drama even though something was missing that I don't know what it was. Lol. It was the kind of J-BL I was hoping to see, and I am happy to have found it.

November 25

• Watching this because I'll be watching the second season; I love it again. Still don't understand why people rate it below 8; it definitely deserves more than that, for sure. 

July-August 24

• I watched the first two parts and liked it. Considering how people reacted I have no plan to watch the third one. It was too realistic but also felt forced from time to time. Enjoyable in total.
• P.S.: I didn't watch the rest, and I'm grateful for that, because I've heard how terrible it was. My ratings are only for the first two parts. 

July-September 24

• Aaahhh, my annual guilty pleasure has arrived, and I fell into it as soon as I got time to watch it happily. 
• I understand why people judge this season and hate it, but I still enjoy it. Life is not only filled with sweet things, kiddos, but there is also bitterness. lol
• Dropped:  8 of 14 eps watched.

August 24

• I am gonna lose my mind, why do Thai screenwriters still insist on writing easy and cliche plots after years of BL-drama-making experience? *sigh*
• The chemistry between characters was great, as well as their expressions in intimate scenes, but sadly the GMMtv was not successful in putting it to the screen. Both leads and side characters were all eye-candies. lol. It was likable in total but too predictable and often got boring, even with 2x speed.
• I rated it more than it deserved thanks to Inn&Great's chemistry and acting skills. They are too lovely to resist! Otherwise, the drama was cliche as fuck, I was gonna throw up.

August 24

• This drama made me sleepless, but I am happy because it has been so long since I finished a drama in one sit! 
• The pace of the drama, chemistry between the leads, and side characters were great. How they dealt with the bad guy in the story was not exaggerated much like other lakorns. It's the best Thai BL of the year so far, imo.

September 24

• It was actually better in the first part. There was nothing special, there were many cliche scenes but it still was cute and watchable. Liked it in total.

September 24

• The plot is original, but something is missing in this drama, like salt in a dish. I just finished the 3rd episode and am not sure if I want to see the rest.
• No love triangles, please. The drama is already weak enough. I’m done with this. Sorry. 
• Dropped: 4 of 10 eps watched.

September 24

• Soft, funny, entertaining. I can't rate it higher because the Japanese manga-style silliest characters annoy me like in this one. Sorry.

September 24

•  It's funny how this one is like the GL version of Takara's treasure. Everything I said about Takara's treasure is also the same for this drama. A good GL series, for sure.

September 24

• There was no such story but still was cute. Liked it.  

October 24

•  A bold dark one for sure. I cannot be sure if I like or disgust a scene often.  

October 24

• I loved every scene of this. A must-watch.

October 24

• -I watched this in one sitting and, as expected, liked the chemistry the most. It was not as great as the original story, but I still loved it.

November 24

• I hate when people don't understand the movie/drama but think negatively about it. This drama was remarkable in many ways. I loved it a lot.

November 24

• Okay, this is better than I expected. Before watching it, I thought negatively about it because the underage boy acted in intimate scenes. I am still unhappy about that, but I don't want to say the drama is bad, either.
• I wish they didn't choose to make the story this complicated after the 4th episode. It was pretty good till then. They tried but couldn't make it.

November 24

• This is the best BL of the year. It hit my emotions in both good and bad ways. I loved everything about it.
• I am mesmerized. This is the best of the best. With these intense emotions I am sad but happy. My eyes are sore.

November 24

•  I love Japanese light dramas like this one. It tastes like I am reading a manga.
