✨ Thai BL List ✨ ซีรีส์วาย (Y-Series)

This series is a riveting rollercoaster of emotions that keeps you hooked from the very first episode.  The chemistry between the main characters, Porsche and Kinn, is electrifying and undeniable, adding an extra layer of intensity to an already gripping storyline.

The show's portrayal of the mafia underworld is both thrilling and immersive, with each episode serving up a new twist or revelation that leaves you on the edge of your seat. The never-ending mysteries and dramas keep you guessing, while the breathtaking action sequences leave you breathless and craving for more.

One of the standout aspects of the series is its fearless approach to exploring the darker side of romance. And I mean a very dark concept. DISCLAIMER! This shows is not for the faint of heart. The love scenes are indeed spicy and intense, but they also add depth to the toxic relationship between Porsche and Kinn. For the good and for the ugly. 

This show got my ass good. Had me bawling.

The show captivated me. The overall premise and storytelling really sold me on the lonely ghost boy named Met and a high school student named Thun. Combining elements of the supernatural with a tender coming-of-age romance, resulting in a narrative that was both compelling and emotionally resonant.

At the heart of the show is the bond between Met and Thun, which evolves from initial skepticism and misunderstanding to a deep and profound connection. The chemistry between the two leads was amazing and defiantly quite the tear jerker.  

The Thai adaptation of Cherry Magic, defiantly brings its strong performances from the cast. The chemistry between the leads is giving, drawing viewers into their budding romance and making their journey all the more engaging to watch. Kao and Earth's portrayal of Kurosawa and Adachi respectively captures the essence of their characters, bringing depth and authenticity to their relationship. I found them just as enduring as their Japanese counterparts. 

With the exception of integrating Thai culture and a splash more skin-ship, this series explores in great depth the themes of friendship, identity, and self-acceptance with sensitivity, offering meaningful insights into the human experience beyond just the central romance of the main couple. The supporting characters are well-developed and play integral roles in the story, contributing to its richness and complexity.  I really appreciate all the supporting cast members, the Thai adaptation really gave them more depth and dimension to these characters, all while blending them seamlessly into the plot.

Whether you're a fan of the original series or new to the story altogether, it's definitely worth checking out! An absolute 10 for me.

Bring Me More REVENGE PLOTS Like This!
From the moment the opening scene hit, I knew this bitch wasn’t playing around. The drama doesn’t ease you in — it throws you straight into betrayal, heartbreak, and a second chance that feels too good to be true. I was hooked in minutes.

We’ve been spoiled with dramas about the hidden lives of actors (My Stand-In, Top Form, etc.), but Reset adds its own flavor — this is a straight-up revenge story wrapped in a time-reset fantasy, and if you know me, angst is my kryptonite. The mix of betrayal, regret, and a second chance at love hits so hard.

Armin is dazzling, messy, and magnetic — the kind of character who makes you want to scream at the screen and then hug him five minutes later. And Thada? He stalks every frame with that dangerous charm, balancing cold authority with heat that makes you melt. Together, they don’t just have chemistry; they have gravity. You feel pulled toward them whether you want to or not.

Visually, the series stuns. The contrast between the modern glamour and the late ’90s throwback world is gorgeous, and the music sharpens every moment of tension and longing. Add in a side cast that’s both fun and heartbreaking, and the world feels alive beyond just the romance.

Yes, a few details stumble — the aging makeup is laughable, and some beats move faster than I wanted — but honestly? None of that mattered when I was already on the edge of my seat, clutching my pillow like it owed me money.

By the time the credits rolled, I wasn’t just entertained — I was obsessed.

When Love Becomes Masochism
This series hooked me with its premise—a stunt double, Joe, who suffers a tragic accident and somehow returns in another man’s body. The idea of a “stand-in” in both career and love was fresh and intriguing compared to the usual BL tropes. But the execution left me with slight mixed feelings.

The acting, especially Poom’s performance as Joe, was phenomenal. He carried the emotional weight of the story beautifully, and that’s honestly what kept me watching through all the mess. But make no mistake: this show is toxic. Nearly every character is deeply flawed—selfish, manipulative, or outright unbearable. Joe’s devotion to Ming often felt more like masochism than love, and Ming himself was one of the most toxic characters I’ve seen in a BL. His “redemption” never truly landed for me, even though the final episodes tried to sell it.

That being said, I can see why people love it. The story is bold, dramatic, and unafraid to explore darker, uncomfortable dynamics that most BLs avoid. If you’re someone who enjoys complex, flawed characters and high-stakes angst, this might end up being a favorite. But if toxic relationships are hard for you to stomach, this will be an excruciating watch.

For me, it’s a show I’ll remember for its unique concept and strong performances—but also for how frustratingly painful it was to see Joe endure so much for love.

Finally a new concept! 
The narrative centers on Great, portrayed by Bible Wichapas Sumettikul, a young man who discovers he can foresee events four minutes into the future. This unique premise adds a fresh twist to the BL genre, blending suspense with speculative fiction. The series boasts impressive cinematography, utilizing lighting and camera angles to enhance the storytelling. The "Sultrier Version" lives up to its name, offering intimate scenes that are both aesthetically pleasing and integral to character development.

I will say the story is a complex overload and not for a simple watch.  The episodes pack in a lot of information at once so take that into consideration. The series' ambitious blend of time travel, romance, and mystery can occasionally lead to convoluted plot points, potentially leaving my friend confused if you weren't paying close attention. ADHD babes beware.  Yet, I was on the edge of my seat the whole time and the plot twists were divine!!  

There's something about this show!
Honestly this series surprised me with how much heart it had behind all the humor. Wandee starts off as this awkward, slightly jaded doctor who agrees to a no-strings fling with Yoryak, a confident boxer who seems to have everything together. But as the story goes on, you really feel how their walls start to break down. Wandee, who’s been so used to hiding behind sarcasm and keeping people at arm’s length, slowly learns what it feels like to be seen and loved for exactly who he is.

Yoryak, on the other hand, isn’t just the “charming fighter” stereotype. His quiet patience, his care with Wandee, and the way he makes space for him to grow—it all made their relationship feel so real and grounding. I loved that their intimacy wasn’t just about chemistry (though they had plenty of that), but about trust, consent, and learning each other’s rhythms.

Such a great watch. This show has me coming back time and time again. The chemistry is just sooooo good.

A Journey of Love and Life Without Sight
For most of its run, Last Twilight completely won me over. The story of Mhok and Day—two people meeting in the darkest moments of their lives and slowly healing together—was heartfelt, tender, and beautifully acted. The show handled themes of disability, independence, and acceptance with surprising care, and I loved that there weren’t really villains—just flawed people with their own arcs. It was unbearably cute watching Day get flustered! Episode 9 especially was unforgettable; the emotion, the music, and the way everything came together made me shed a tear.

For me, Last Twilight is a drama I’ll remember for its warmth, chemistry, and gorgeous emotional highs—but also for how much the finale undercut its own message. I'm giving  this show a high rating because If you stop at episode 9, it’s a near masterpiece. If you keep going, be prepared for some frustration.

Oh, you know why this one is here. THE BEDROOM SCENE GOT ME WILDN OUT. 

When I first stumbled upon Together With Me, I had no idea it would completely change my BL journey— and I now proudly call this series the show that sent me spiraling down the rabbit hole of BL dramas.  From the very first episode, I was hooked. Unlike so many college-set BLs, this series features openly gay characters whose struggles, relationships, and emotions are treated with care and depth. It felt honest, refreshing, and a little groundbreaking at the time. Especially coming from the mid 2010's.

The acting completely sold me on the series. Max as Korn brought so much emotion and authenticity to every scene, whether happy, vulnerable, or intimate, while Knock perfectly complemented him, making their chemistry absolutely magnetic. The intimacy scenes were surprisingly natural and convincing, and the supporting cast delivered solid, heartfelt performances as well. Farm’s journey, in particular, was incredibly sweet and genuine, showing a young man exploring his feelings with honesty and charm. 

For me, Together With Me isn’t just a series—it’s the reason I fell in love with BL dramas in the first place. It’s emotional, sexy, funny, and heartfelt, and the chemistry between Korn and Knock is unforgettable. I’ve rewatched it multiple times, and each time it feels just as engaging as the first.

I thought the whole “parallel universe” thing would be confusing, but after the first two episodes, it all clicked — and then I was hooked. Honestly, even with my skepticism, I'm so glad I gave this one a try and was not disappointed. 

Max completely owned his dual role as Tai, showing two sides of the same soul with so much depth. Nat as Kram started a little shaky but grew stronger each episode, and together they were magic. The chemistry? Off the charts. You feel every glance, every touch, every moment of longing.

The production was stunning — gorgeous worlds, thoughtful fantasy details, and some of the most tender, emotional intimate scenes I’ve seen in BL. This wasn’t just surface romance; it was vulnerable, heartfelt, and beautifully acted.

Yes, the pacing rushed near the end (I wanted at least two more episodes!), and the side couple could’ve been fleshed out more. But honestly? Those little flaws don’t outweigh how much this series delivered.

Two worlds, one unforgettable love story.

As someone who’s been captivated by the evolving landscape of Thai BL dramas, this show stood out as a delightful blend of culinary passion and unexpected romance. The series introduces us to Plawan, a model with a deep affection for Pad Kaprao, who finds himself entangled in a cooking competition led by the meticulous Chef Oab. What begins as a mission to win over the chef soon blossoms into a genuine connection, challenging both characters' preconceived notions about love and ambition.

One of the things that really hooked me was Oab’s hidden motives. I don’t know why, but I've always had a huge sweet tooth for being drawn to characters who have a secret agenda, who intentionally try to manipulate the love interest, only to end up genuinely falling for them and regretting their deception. Idkw, I'm just a weirdo. BUT, if you like that trope too, you'll defiantly enjoy this. 

From the very first episode, Thame and Po completely stole my heart. Watching their relationship unfold was like reliving that first crush feeling all over again — slow, careful, full of patience and care. Thame’s attentiveness toward Po, the way he always made him feel safe, was so refreshing, and their chemistry? Absolutely electric. The kisses left me gasping, the moments between them made my heart skip a beat — these two are pure gold.

The series also does an amazing job showing the reality of idol life. The pressure, the favoritism, the internal tensions within the group — it felt so real and grounded. I loved how it gave us a peek behind the curtain of the entertainment industry without turning it into melodrama.

That said, the pacing faltered a bit in the second half. The subplot with Jun and Po, while understandable, pulled focus away from the main couple, and the breakup arc gave me emotional whiplash. I wished we had a bit more time to savor Thame and Po together before all the conflict hit.

Still, the performances were phenomenal. William and Est were electric together, and every supporting character felt fully realized. Add in gorgeous cinematography, top-tier visuals, and a soundtrack that hits just right — especially William’s voice — and it all comes together beautifully.

It’s clear this 5-episode special was designed to address the complaints and frustrations of fans while bringing back everything we loved about the beginning of the original series. And honestly? I had a genuinely good time watching it. DEFIENTLY THE ENDING WE DESERVED. 

Can't get enough of them <3

After watching the trailer air a year before it finally debut,  I was blown away and  expected a masterpiece. The pre-release documentary promised grandeur — opulent sets, a massive budget, the kind of worldbuilding that could redefine BL dramas. On the surface, it delivered: shimmering gold and silver halls, floral displays that looked straight out of a painting, an endless parade of extras, palatial locations that screamed “royalty.” It looked like a fairy tale.

But once the glitter settled, the cracks showed. The story itself lacked depth. All that spectacle couldn’t disguise the absence of meaningful character development. It’s a royal banquet where the dishes look beautiful but leave you unsatisfied.

The actors, however, were the saving grace. Zee and Nunew had undeniable chemistry — effortless, magnetic, exactly what fans hoped for. Jimmy and Ohm poured everything into their roles, but their arc felt incomplete, like someone cut out the heart of their story. Another couple was teased, yet nothing meaningful was done with them. Threads dangled, opportunities slipped away.

What remained was the central love story tied to court intrigue. And while it worked on a surface level, it never reached the heights it promised. Don’t get me wrong — it was still entertaining, especially since BL rarely dives into this genre. Watching how the series tried to balance romance with politics kept me engaged. But the potential for something unforgettable was right there… and it never fully arrived.

The Next Prince isn’t a disaster. It’s a dazzling spectacle — gorgeous to look at, enjoyable in parts — but in the end, it traded its crown for costume jewelry.

This shows is one of those classic BL series that pretty much defined the genre for a lot of fans, and for good reason. Honestly, it’s a bit of a rollercoaster—there’s a lot to love, but also plenty to cringe at, which is exactly what makes it so compelling. If you’re someone who enjoys watching two characters grow through tension, misunderstandings, and slow-burn romance, this is your show. But don’t expect anything groundbreaking or overly deep.

The chemistry. The connection between Arthit and Kongpob is, well, electric. From the very beginning, you can feel the tension between them. Arthit, the senior with a tough exterior, and Kongpob, the idealistic, headstrong freshman, have this amazing push-and-pull dynamic. It’s the kind of love-hate relationship that keeps you hooked, especially when you can feel both the characters' growth as they navigate their feelings. These two really know how to sell you on the idea of opposites attracting.

I will say the hazing/"supposably playful bullying"  parts almost put me off of this serious but I'm glad I stayed strong!

Fate, love, and nostalgia — I felt it all.
Where do I even start? This series hit me right in the feels. The story of Korn and Dean, their past-life connection, and the slow unraveling of their feelings is beautifully heartbreaking. The show does an amazing job blending romance with mystery — you’re invested not just in their love story but in why fate keeps pulling them together.

The chemistry between Krist and Fluke is undeniable. Every glance, every small touch, every quiet moment had me swooning. The way their relationship slowly built, with so much care and patience, felt real and heartfelt. The emotional weight of their past-life memories added so much depth, making even the simplest interactions feel loaded with meaning.

That said, the series isn’t perfect. Some parts felt slow, especially in the middle episodes, and a few plot points could have used tighter pacing. But honestly, the story, the acting, and the emotional payoff more than made up for it.

The cinematography, music, and overall production pulled me right into their world. The flashbacks were gorgeous, the present-day moments tender, and the score just elevated everything. It didn’t completely blow the roof off my expectations, but it still left my heart full and a little aching. 

I have very mixed feelings about 2gether. The show started off so strong—Sarawat and Tine’s fake-dating arrangement was electric, full of chemistry, humor, and genuine sparks that made me actually believe in their connection. Their dynamic during this “pretend” phase was far more compelling than what we saw after they officially became a couple, which, honestly, is such a frustrating feat for a BL series to pull off.

One of my biggest issues was the lack of real intimacy and depth between them as a couple. It doesn't always have to be kisses or sexual scenes, but love can be shown in so many other ways—shared moments, comfort, vulnerability, or small gestures of care. Instead, Sarawat often came across as distant or even condescending, like when he simply patted Tine on the head instead of offering emotional support. It made their “in love” moments feel shallow, and the emotional payoff never fully landed.

The series also leaned heavily on women as plot devices (which I strongly dislike) to generate drama and jealousy, and the story recycled side conflicts instead of advancing the main couple’s growth.... However this series got me through Covid and still has left an impression on me. 

Ultimately, SOTUS S had the potential to be much more than it turned out to be. It’s clear that the creators tried to build on what made the first season so popular, but the execution was hit or miss. It’s not a bad watch, but it’s not the gem it could have been either. If you’re in it for the romance and the chemistry, you might find enough to enjoy, but if you’re looking for a well-rounded, tightly written story, this might leave you wanting more.

Just one of those rare BL dramas that actually delivers. Sure, it has its flaws, but if you're in the right headspace for a messy, passionate, and often over-the-top ride, it's honestly a blast.

But here’s the thing—Love in the Air is not subtle, and honestly, that's kind of what makes it fun. The plot? Yeah, it’s a bit ridiculous. You’ve got misunderstandings, jealous exes, and some very questionable decisions, but all of that just contributes to the drama that makes the show so damn entertaining. This isn’t a series that tries to be overly deep or cerebral. It knows what it’s here for: to entertain and make you root for the leads, despite their flaws and the fact that sometimes they do really dumb things. If you go in expecting an emotional rollercoaster that doesn’t take itself too seriously, you’ll find yourself fully invested.

One of the standout features of the series is its commitment to exploring the complicated feelings that often arise between friends. It doesn’t shy away from the messy, awkward, and painful emotions that can occur when you’re in love with someone who may not feel the same way or when you’re caught in the whirlwind of a love triangle.

As for the romance, it’s complicated—sometimes frustratingly so. While there are times when the chemistry between the leads can feel off or inconsistent, when it works, it’s powerful. The quiet, tender moments shared between the two main characters, especially when they’re not speaking but simply existing in the same space, can be really moving. Those moments of emotional connection, when they feel comfortable or vulnerable with each other, are genuinely touching.  

The character development, while slow, does happen. Particularly the growth of the main characters as they struggle with their emotions and relationships is one of the more satisfying aspects of the show. By the end of the series, you feel like the characters have learned something about themselves, even if the process was a bit messy.
 
Overall, It may not be prefect but it does have its moments and kept me fighting for wanting more.

A cozy BL series that might not break any boundaries, but it does deliver enough charm to keep you smiling throughout. If you’re looking for something lighthearted, sweet, and easy to watch, this show hits the mark—despite its flaws.

The premise itself, a baker and a pastry chef navigating their awkward yet sweet relationship, is charming on paper, and the show does a good job of capturing that. While the baking theme could have been explored a bit more deeply, it’s still present enough to create a fun backdrop.

As for the pacing, it’s fairly breezy. Yes, at times it feels like it could benefit from a little more depth or build-up, but it’s also not dragging or wasting time. There’s a refreshing lightness to the show, where the drama doesn’t get too heavy, and it moves quickly enough to keep you entertained without feeling like it’s overstaying its welcome. It’s a perfect show for those in need of a quick binge that doesn’t require a lot of emotional investment.  

The season focuses on the challenges of maintaining a long-term relationship, tackling themes of trust, personal growth, and the pressures of external influences on love.

Unlike the first season’s high-intensity drama, Season 2 shifts its focus to the emotional and psychological complexities of a long-term relationship. Themes like career ambitions, trust, and societal expectations add a more grounded and relatable layer to the story. Tharn and Type’s chemistry remains strong, and their character growth is evident. However, Fiat’s role as an antagonist feels excessive, lacking depth and nuance. While the season strives for realism, certain conflicts—particularly those involving jealousy and misunderstandings—tend to be drawn out and overly dramatized.

Throwing in a love triangle with an outside character is often an overused way to create drama rather than genuine relationship growth. Instead of developing the couple’s dynamic through meaningful communication, shared experiences, or personal challenges, it forces conflict through jealousy and misunderstandings—often making one or both leads act out of character.  

That said, Seven years is a significant time for growth. Yet, I often felt like we were just continuing where we left of in Season 1 rather than a new chapter. While their careers and circumstances changed, their emotional dynamics remained largely the same, with familiar patterns of jealousy and misunderstandings. The series missed an opportunity to explore deeper, more mature relationship struggles, making the time jump feel less impactful than it should have.

While it has its flaws—mainly in pacing and melodrama—it remains an emotional and satisfying continuation for fans of Tharn and Type. If you loved the first season, this sequel offers a more mature and reflective take on their love story.

The chemistry between the leads, Zee and Saint (as the characters of Zon and Sway), is undeniable at times. There’s a genuine spark between them, and when the show lets them just be together without any forced drama, they shine. Their banter is fun, and some of their more intimate moments are sweet, even if the execution isn’t always perfect. There’s a nice dynamic between them, especially in the first half of the series when things are more lighthearted. THE SHOWS SAVING GRACE.

However, the rest of the show? Was a mess. The pacing is all over the place. Some episodes drag for what feels like forever, while others rush through important plot points without giving them the attention they deserve. It’s like the series couldn’t decide whether it wanted to focus on romance, drama, or some half-baked philosophical idea about identity and love, so it tries to do all of them and ends up doing none of them well.

"TharnType" is one of the most talked-about Thai BL series, delivering a mix of intense emotions, undeniable chemistry, and high-stakes drama. The series stands out for its raw passion and character growth, making it a must-watch for fans of the genre.

The explosive chemistry between the leads is absolutely electrifying! Their interactions—whether romantic, emotional, or confrontational—feel intense and believable, making their love story compelling.  The series is packed with drama, misunderstandings, and emotional moments. While some conflicts can feel extreme, they keep the audience hooked. The push-and-pull dynamic between Tharn and Type makes their romance feel passionate and intense.

Type starts off as deeply homophobic due to childhood trauma, but over time, he unlearns his prejudices and allows himself to love Tharn. His growth is significant, even if frustrating at times. Tharn, on the other hand, is patient yet firm, never allowing Type’s initial hostility to break him.

HOWEVER, DISCLAMIER! there is a problematic troupe in this series that continues to be a yes/no for anyone watching. The series includes non-consensual moments and toxic behaviors that may be uncomfortable for viewers. While the story does attempt to address these issues, some scenes remain controversial. 

I have mixed feelings about this drama.

To begin with, I found myself questioning why Bohnduen were the main characters. While they were initially charming, as the story progressed, they became increasingly boring and frustrating. Their relationship dynamic, particularly Bohn’s overbearing behavior, was off-putting. His constant jealousy and possessiveness over Duen made him come across as controlling, and it didn’t make sense that Duen was always the one apologizing. The drama also felt repetitive, with the primary conflict revolving around Bohn’s jealousy over insignificant interactions. It became overly cheesy, in a way that didn’t add to the story. In hindsight, they would have been more effective as side characters rather than the central focus.

As for Mekboss, they didn’t make much of an impact on me. The actor playing Mek was great, but the dubbing did him a disservice, and their storyline lacked depth.

On the other hand, Ramking and Tharafrong were the saving grace of this drama. Without these two couples, I don’t know how I would have managed to keep watching. Ramking, though not officially a couple, displayed such a tender, caring dynamic that I couldn’t help but get emotionally invested in them. They truly stole the show. Tharafrong also captured my heart, especially with Thara’s wholesome nature and his adorable pet lizard, Cupcake. Their story felt like a teaser, leaving me excited for more in season 2 UNTIL IT GOT CANCELLED! So there's that.

The timeless theme of unrequited love and the obsession of a teenage crush, while potentially intriguing, is weighed down by clichés and lack of emotional depth.

Toh is defiantly quite the character in this series as our main protagonist. His exaggerated  expressions and enthusiastic yet shy demeanor in s̶t̶a̶l̶k̶i̶n̶g̶ crushing the campus hottie (that really didn't have much going on for his personality), Neua, was quite the ride. I was able to quickly adjust to Toh's cringy behavior and could relate to the absurd fantasizes we all once had on a crush. Yet, when the series advanced, the characters motivations often seemed shallow, and their connections with their crushes feel superficial at best. Without a strong emotional investment in the characters, it was challenging for me to truly "care" about their outcome.

Furthermore, the show relied heavily on sensationalism and manipulation to keep viewers engaged, rather than relying on compelling storytelling. This approach may attract attention in the short term, but it ultimately cheapens the viewing experience and undermines any genuine moments that may occur...

However, The deep friendship between the group was remarkable. Grappling with their own insecurities but still teaming up to help each other out with their crushes was enjoyable to watch. The "friend group" characters really held my attention for the show and I appreciated the 2nd couple way more because their pacing felt more authentic. 

This series is a mixed bag, and whether you’ll love it or not, depends on how much patience you have for slow pacing, BL clichés, and underwhelming execution.

The series takes its time—sometimes too much time. The first few episodes feel like they’re dragging, with many long silences, lingering stares, and side plots that don’t add much to the main story.  However, the side GL couple was absolutely killer.

The integration of Thai mythology and traditions could have been what set this apart from other BL dramas, but it ends up being surface-level.  Visually, the series is polished—the cinematography and set designs are beautiful. But stunning shots can’t save a mediocre script. The dialogue is often cringeworthy, and the emotional beats rarely hit as hard as they should. The uncut version tries to add steamier moments, but even those feel awkward rather than sensual. Though! Mos and Bank are great actors and have wonderful chemistry, it just came down to poor writing...

If you’re a fan of Mos and Bank or enjoy slow-burn romances with beautiful cinematography, Sunset x Vibes might be worth your time. However, if you prefer tighter pacing and stronger emotional depth, this series may leave you wanting more.  

Boy, where do I start. This was defiantly the 2nd BL that I watched that got me hooked into other Thai BL so there is a love/hate for this show. 

The show captures the excitement and uncertainty of young love, providing viewers with heartwarming moments that resonate on an emotional level. The chemistry between the main characters, Ae and Pete, is giving, which defiantly drew me into their journey as they navigate the complexities of their feelings for each other. Additionally, Love by Chance deserves credit for its efforts to address important issues facing LGBTQ+ individuals, such as coming out and acceptance from family and society. While the treatment of these themes may not be perfect, the series still succeeds in sparking meaningful conversations and providing representation for queer audiences given its success of the time.

Yet, after a few re-watches, the series suffered from uneven pacing, with episodes dragging on unnecessarily while failing to fully develop key plot points or character arcs. Scenes that should be emotionally impactful often feel rushed or undercooked, robbing them of their potential resonance and left me feeling disconnected at times. Of course there was the unnecessary drama that bleed into the production of LBC 2 without my favorite boi, Saint, which also left me sad and uninterested about the potential or the future of the show. But I still cherish the moments and feelings I got when I first watched this series <3

To be honest, The main story really didn't pull me in so I ended up skipping to the BL couple. Always a fan of enemy to lovers so if that ya stick, this up your alley.

Honestly, I think what I liked most about their relationship was how it felt like a slow burn but wasn't. You could tell In, especially, was trying to figure out his feelings, and Chitt wasn’t afraid to push him a bit. Sometimes that pushy side of Chitt came off as kind of overwhelming—like, I get he’s in love, but there were moments where I was like, "Okay, give the guy a break!" But even with that, Saint’s portrayal of Chitt made it clear he was just so eager and honestly just wanted to make sure In didn’t run away from what they could be together. And I think a lot of people can relate to that feeling—of being so afraid of rejection that you overcompensate.

In, on the other hand, was like a typical "shy guy figuring himself out," but man, I felt for him so many times. His journey to opening up was sweet, but I did wish sometimes the series gave us a bit more depth into his internal struggles.

The pacing sometimes dragged, and I’ll be honest, I did find myself rolling my eyes at some of the typical miscommunication or jealousy drama. It’s almost like there was a checklist of "BL tropes" to get through—love triangle? Check. Misunderstood feelings? Check. A random, unnecessary argument? Oh yeah, check. But even with that, I did care about these characters. I found myself rooting for them to figure things out and get to the "good part" of their relationship. And when they did, it was really satisfying!

Thought I needed to watch this before DBK (Dark Blue Kiss) But honestly, It's not necessary. You're good without having to watch this, unless you want to.

I was hesitant with this one because I wasn't a fan of En of Love: Tossarra, yet the pacing and editing were decently better compared to the disaster Tossara was but not by a significant amount.

As for the characters themselves, the show doesn't really give you anyone to root for. Dean is supposed to be the tortured, misunderstood soul, but his actions are often selfish and, at times, downright cruel. He doesn't have a good reason for what he does to Pharm, other than, well, he just wants what he wants. And while there’s potential for redemption, the show doesn’t really explore it in a satisfying way. Pharm, on the other hand, is just there, a victim of the narrative, constantly being pulled between his toxic boyfriend and Dean.

DISCLAIMER, Being under the influence is still hella un-consensual and the series gives you that in the first 5 minutes of the 1st episode if you are not comfortable with watching that unfold.
 
And can we talk about the handling of cheating? It’s a huge plot point in Love Mechanics, and the show, frankly, doesn’t handle it well. It doesn’t portray the weight of the actions involved, making it seem like these messy relationships are just something for the characters to work out without any real consequences.

The chemistry between the leads was the shows saving grace. Even though their intimate moments have a spark to them, but without proper buildup or emotional resonance, it all feels a little forced. The show leans heavily on sexual tension as a substitute for actual emotional depth, and it doesn’t quite land as well as it thinks it does.

AND WHAT WAS WITH THAT DAMN POWERPOINT MF OPENER. HELLO? AND THE AUDIO MIXER?? THE SOUNDS AND MUSIC WERE LOAUDER THAN THE VOICES. 

For a quick watch of toxic romance it dishes out exactly that and that's it.

Honestly only watched this for Knock and Korn.

"En of Love: TOSSARA" is the first installment in the En of Love series, a set of BL mini-dramas based on popular novels. Unfortunately, rather than being a captivating love story, TOSSARA feels like a half-baked, poorly executed attempt at cashing in on the BL craze.

What went wrong?
zero chemistry, horrendous pacing, bland characters, and lazy story telling... Someone made this at gunpoint is how I felt. 

A film that attempts to blend elements of romance, thriller, and horror, but unfortunately, it misses the mark. While the premise might sound intriguing—a vampire romance set in Bangkok—the execution falls flat, resulting in a messy and unsatisfying viewing experience.

DROPPED! I'm gonna eventually give this a 2nd try some time later...
