Not a Hater, Just my Views
The actors have great potential, and it truly showed in Episode 7. However, the overall storytelling feels a bit choppy. I believe the director didn’t fully coordinate them to bring out that potential consistently. There’s a lack of continuous flow, and some scenes don’t feel natural or logical, almost as if certain "most-viewed" moments from other dramas were replicated without fitting smoothly into the narrative.Another issue is the pacing. By the end of each episode, there isn’t that gripping "why are you leaving us hanging?" feeling that keeps you eager for the next one. The romance also feels underdeveloped - just because one character can reverse time doesn’t mean the other will automatically remember and feel the same way. The emotional buildup between the MCs wasn’t given enough space to grow.
Overall, Reverse with Me isn’t a bad series, but it has a lot of gaps that prevent it from fully utilizing the actors' talents. With better direction and a more cohesive storyline, it could have been much more impactful.

Pam & Rak: A Love Worth Remembering
Putting the GL label aside, Us the series has been an absolute gem—captivating me from the very first episode all the way to the finale. Every element came together so beautifully: the performances (especially by Emi and Bonnie), the immersive sound design, the seamless flow of the story, the heartwarming OST, and the deeper messages rooted in family, trust, love, and the quiet power of patience and hard work.This was my first time seeing Emi and Bonnie, and to say they left an impression would be an understatement—they completely blew me away. Their chemistry as P'Pam and Rak was so raw, loving, and real. There was nothing forced or overly dramatized. The way their love unfolded on screen felt authentic and tender, not reliant on PG-13 scenes, but instead carried by genuine emotion and subtle, beautiful moments. It’s rare to see something this refreshing and sincere in the GL genre—or in storytelling in general.
The direction and vision behind this series were nothing short of outstanding. The entire team clearly poured heart and soul into every frame, and it shows. Each episode felt like a warm hug, even as the story tugged at the heartstrings. And yet, 12 episodes somehow felt too short—I could’ve spent so much more time with Pam and Rak. Their connection wasn’t just acting; it was magic. A kind of magic that stays with you long after the screen fades to black.
Us is more than just a series—it’s an experience, one that’s nestled itself deep in my heart. It’s hard to say goodbye, but I’m holding on to hope that this won’t be the last we see of this cast, this team, and this kind of storytelling. I’ll be eagerly waiting for whatever comes next.

A Letdown Despite Promising Leads
I had high hopes for Denied Love, especially with its rising leads who have great off-screen chemistry. Sadly, the series didn’t live up to its potential.The storyline felt disjointed, relying too heavily on romance scenes that lacked proper direction and emotional depth. Instead of enhancing the plot, they felt forced , and too much of a good thing quickly became dull.
Dialogue often led nowhere, and overall, the writing, character development, and cinematography seemed poorly thought out. It’s frustrating, because the ingredients were there for something truly impactful.
Denied Love could’ve been much more, and that’s what makes it so disappointing.

I Came to Judge, I Stayed for the Chaos
At first, after Episode 1, I was like… oh no, not another flop pleaseBut then I forced myself to watch Episode 2 and suddenly I was like… wait a damn minute, let me not judge too fast 👀
Maybe Mim’s beauty helped me stay, I’m not even gonna lie but after that, the series actually started getting more interesting and enjoyable.
One thing I have to give them credit for: the comedy and the reactions are SO fun to watch some scenes really had me entertained, and that’s honestly what made me keep going. The vibe started getting better and the story became easier to enjoy.
Now let me be honest for a second — Din’s creepy smile needed to be toned down by at least 70% because girl sometimes she’s just there smiling like she already won the love war or she's visualzing her next murder scenes in her head.
And with Apple… I know she has the potential, so I was expecting a bit more. But honestly, I also feel like maybe the direction didn’t fully help her show what she’s capable of. Because I’ve seen more from her before.
Also, I need GL productions to understand something very important:
… not every series needs to throw in extra love scenes just because they can 👀
If the actors still look shy or not fully natural doing them, then sometimes it’s better to keep it short, sweet, and effective instead of making it longer than necessary. A little intimacy can still hit hard without overdoing it.
And please Din should’ve borrowed some fighting lessons from Lom because if you’re gonna protect your queen, then baby, you need to come prepared. To be honest she wasn't, having a gun and 3 cousins doesn't make you a protector, and girl I had to look away when Wasu push her away like it was a piece of plastic 🤦♀️
Overall, I’m actually glad I kept watching because the series really grew on me. It’s not perfect, but it became way more fun and lovable than I expected. And I have to say it loud that they are my favorite quartet

That was better than what I was expecting
From the very first episode, Poisonous Love distinguished itself with a unique narrative twist that immediately drew me in. This isn’t your typical romance—it’s a carefully crafted story that knows exactly what it wants to be.Ginny and Jay deliver performances that go beyond acting; they embody their characters with such authenticity that every emotion feels lived-in and real. Their on-screen chemistry is nothing short of electric—they don’t just share scenes, they create a genuine partnership that makes you believe in what you’re watching. You can feel the dedication and effort they poured into bringing these complex characters to life.
I have to commend the directors for their tasteful approach to the intimate scenes. They struck that rare, perfect balance—creating moments that make your heart skip a beat while maintaining a sense of respect and artistry. The pacing was impeccable; nothing felt gratuitous or uncomfortable. Instead, these scenes served the story and the emotional journey of the characters, which shows real skill and care for both the narrative and the actresses.
The writing deserves special recognition. The dialogue feels fresh and purposeful—conversations that actually matter, with characters saying things worth listening to. It’s such a relief to watch a series where the script doesn’t rely on repetitive exchanges or tired tropes.
Now, Nam’s character—I’ll be honest, I couldn’t stand her from the beginning. But that’s the point, isn’t it? The actress played that manipulative, narcissistic role with such chilling conviction that I was genuinely unsettled. That takes real talent.
What struck me most was Ginny’s portrayal of Prem’s internal struggle. The suffocating pressure of parental expectations, the painful indecisiveness, the heartbreaking betrayal of herself just to keep the peace—she captured all of it with nuanced, gut-wrenching authenticity. It’s frustrating to watch a character trapped by family dynamics like these, but that’s because families like this exist. Children with no voice, no agency, slowly drowning while maintaining a perfect smile. Ginny gave voice to that silent suffering in a way that felt deeply real.
To the entire cast and crew: thank you for creating something special. Your hard work, dedication, and artistry shine through every frame. Poisonous Love is proof that Thai GL drama can be bold, beautiful, and deeply moving when handled with this level of care and talent.
You should be incredibly proud of what you’ve created.

A story that had potential
Ever since I watched Secret of Us, I’ve been a fan of Ling and Orm for their outstanding performances, and I knew this pairing would bring us soft GL content.Now onto the review: the storyline had great potential, especially as it gave Ling the chance to shift from her usual doctor role into a more action-oriented character. It definitely stood apart from other GL stories out there. However, the writing felt lacking—too many scenes seemed to fill space without real purpose.
More importantly, their on-screen chemistry didn’t come across as strong as it does in real life. Considering this isn’t their first time working together, they should’ve seemed more at ease. Honestly, their kiss scenes in Secret of Us were way much better—here, they felt hesitant and forced. The story also didn’t provide a solid foundation to justify their actions, making it harder to connect with, and not counting the pointless crocodile tears.
To the producers: if your actors aren’t comfortable with intimate or fan-service moments, don’t stretch out or overload the series with awkward kissing scenes. Viewers will still love the actors and appreciate the series more if those moments feel natural rather than forced.

A GL Series That Actually Gets It Right
I'll be honest — with the surge of GL series flooding our screens lately, many of them painful to sit through, I went into Heart Code fully prepared to be underwhelmed. I didn't even want to hand it a perfect score on principle. But the series earned it.From the very first episode, it was clear this was something different. Nothing felt wasted. Every moment had a purpose, every scene moved the story forward, and not once did the chemistry between the leads feel manufactured or forced. No aimless wandering or unnecessary back story, no stupid "accidental falling for each other" clichés — just intentional, well-crafted storytelling.
Hats off to the writer and director for laying such a solid foundation, but the real stars of this review are the actors. They didn't just perform — they inhabited these characters. The emotion felt real, the connection was instant, and you believed every single moment they shared on screen.
Than's portrayal of the captain and bodyguard figure deserves special mention — and unfortunately it forces a comparison to Only You, a series that was a real disappointment and genuinely wasted a talented actor who could not convincingly sell the boss bodyguard role, specially in physical presence. Than, by contrast, owned it. Every look, every stance, every moment of intensity read exactly as it should. It's the kind of performance that makes you realise how much that role demands, and how rarely it's done right — and the supporting cast deserves credit too, actually adding value to her character rather than just filling space.
What the series does beautifully is its pacing and balance. The developing chemistry never felt rushed or hollow. Than's desire after being love-struck was portrayed with an intensity and heat that's rare to find. The love scenes were genuinely a work of art — intimate, intentional, and you could feel the actors were fully present and authentic in those moments. The comedy landed where it was placed without derailing the tone. The emotional beats hit accordingly without tipping into melodrama or endless crying. Even the action sequences were well-choreographed — not Hollywood-level, sure, but coherent, purposeful, and effective.
Heart Code is the kind of GL series that reminds you what the genre is capable of when everyone involved actually cares. A well-deserved full score — even from me.
