If you enjoyed the korean BL "Sing My Crush", then you will like this one too. It's the exact same story, just with a different background. "Sing My Crush" is told around music, and "Something's Not Right" is told around a pretend couple. It's funny how both have the exact same rating in MDL.
Both shows are about super close bestfriends where friend A has feelings for friend B. On the other hand, friend B never seems to show romantic interest towards friend A but he is super caring, protective, and clingy which does nothing but help friend A to think that maybe the feelings are reciprocated. And although friend A tries to be kinda obvious with his feelings, friend B is completely clueless and he can't read the room.
As I've said this is the same plot as "Sing My Crush". However "Something's Not Right" has an extra character, Ha Min, which makes it overall better in my opinion. Ha Min is a really interesting character and, by far, the one that got most of my attention.
Only 4 episodes are out, so it's still soon to decide which one of the series did a better job at portraying this friends to lovers (with one-sided crush) story. But if you liked "Sing My Crush", you will probably like this one too.
I know that everyone is focusing on links to watch the series, but does someone have the link to read the novel in english? I've only been able to find one chapter and I'm pretty sure it has way more than 1 lol
Is the show called OMG Vampire because OMG were the words that came out of my mouth after watching the last scene of episode 7? Not tagging this as a spoiler since this is basically a trigger warning for whoever hasn't watched it yet.
I don't understand the need for that scene? What were they trying to accomplish? Did they just want to justify r*pe? The whole scene makes no sense.
First off, there is no way Phum slept through it. It's impossible for a human being to sleep during sex unless they have been drugged or they are super drunk (basically unconscious). Which, we know, that was not the case. So Phum was conscious during the sex and he was prefectly able to give or not consent. They didn't show it, so who knows what happened. But justifying r*pe the next morning? Hello? Even if that wasn't r*ape because Phum was conscious, you can't just say "we are boyfriends" and leave it like that. SA and r*ape exist between a couple. Your partner is perfectly able to r*ape you so the "we are dating" is NOT an excuse.
This is a stupid comedy show with some romance here and there. It isn't great but well, it is watchable. The last scene of episode 7 is tempting me to drop this even if there is only 1 episode left...
Seriously did White fucking DIE? I didn't watch it already, but came to get spoilersCan someone spoil me who are…
So... everyone died. Not sure how, it's not explained. Supposedly Phee, Jin and Tee are the only ones who survived. But at the end it turns out that no one ever was able to leave that house. How did they 3 die? No clue.
Honestly I started this yesterday knowing about all the bad comments, so I went with low expectations. But it's not that bad after you survive the painful first 2-3 episodes (I did have to skip most of the "Sports Day" though lol). And yes, I read the novel way before Bed Friends was released. But I have to confess that this one was boring to me so I never finished the book unlike Bed Friends.
This is probably a big coincidence, a huge one, because it has never been a factor in the story... but Jade's character has autism. I don't know if making his character that way was a simple coincidence, or if they did it on purpose but they don't mention it. I would be pretty disappointed if it's the last one, but there is still one episode so let's hope they say something. And if that never crossed their minds... then they did a pretty realistic autistic character without knowing it. I have a nephew with autism and I see him in Jade. His antics, his obsession with Detective Conan (If you have watched "Extraordinary Attorney Woo" it's whales in her case), how he reacted after his outburst with his family, not understanding Mai's feelings... this just screams autism. People tend to forget that autism is a spectrum, which means that there are different "levels". In the case of my nephew, for example, you would never guess he is in the spectrum unless you spend a long time with him. It's the same with Jade. He shows some characteristics that help to diagnose it/recognize it, but unless you know about these characteristics you would never guess he is in the spectrum. So for future viewers, I would recommend to look at Jade this way to undesrtand his personality better. And if you don't know about autism, I also recommend to check some info and learn about it :)
I'm so confused... Since the news of this BL were released, it's always been stated that this is a movie that will premiere in Korea only. Now I see here that this is a series with 10 episodes? Something similar happened to Our Dating Sim which was told to be a movie at first, and it turned out to be a series at the end. Is this situation the same thing? Does someone have a source where they explain whether it is a series or a movie? Thanks!
Aren't some of this actors too old to be playing high school students?
Usually, when casting, they don't really look at the age. They are looking for someone who fits the character in mind (and does good when acting). It doesn't matter if you are 30 or 40 as long as you look as someone who could be a high school/university student and you fit the other criteria (height, color of skin, body shape, etc). When I did acting, I've always been encouraged by my teachers/casting directors to apply for castings that were looking for young characters since I look way younger than my real age lol And although it's quite fu**ed up, casting directors who can 'pay' will always prefer experienced actors over newbies not necessarily because they are better, but because they already have 'fame' and 'fans' that will watch whatever the actor is part of.
Did anyone read its novel, is it as bad as the series
For me the novel was better. In fact the series did start as the novel, LITA style, and I was really enjoying it. But then while the novel shows a clear development of the characters, the series just got stuck on the jealousy cycle and they dragged it for too long... To people who haven't watched it yet, I would recommend to read the novel first and then if they wanna give it a try to the series they can. But definitely the novel is way better.
TW: Fah forces Sher at one point, that's something I'm glad that the series didn't add. And also there is some incest sh*t going on, so once again I'm glad this wasn't shown on the series lol Those are probably the only things I would like to forget from the novel.
Two couples (making that presumption) stop and briefly watch Lian and Kuea make out, and then they both walk past.…
It's exactly as you thought. The company had two upcoming series named "Middleman's Love" and "Bed Friend". These two series are related and the four actors are the leads of each series. It was a nod to the company's next projects. Unfortunately "Middleman's Love" won't be released anytime soon because one of the leads had to retire from it due to health problems, so they will first air "Bed Friend" while they cast new actors for "Middleman's Love".

Tee killed White.
Phee killed New (Tan).
No idea how Phee, Jin and Tee died.
I've been looking for it for a while but I still can't find it.
