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.
