The entire episode I kept thinking, oh my goodness, you’re really going to take him back, right? I was so conflicted, because people in love are just sooooo… but that “come with me, my love”? Yeah. Sealed the deal🫂

Another year, another Only Friends rerun. And it still hits the same. Before Sand even had the chance to stand he had already fallen. There was no saving him. Sand was already gone. And honestly he’s still a personal favorite.

In the scene with Lookplub and Peach, Peach hands her a mug with a camera on it, an obvious merch ad referencing his work as a photographer. If you look at the mug stand in the background, there’s also a mug with a gun on it, which is likely meant to represent Khun Thee. Since Peach has already been shown to be uncomfortable with guns, it feels out of place for that to be in his house. Honestly, it might seem like I’m complaining about nothing, but it doesn’t feel fully thought through. This isn’t on the actors, but on whoever handled the set and prop choices.

Exactly. With the kind of reach they have, they could easily shoot separate content for ads and it wouldn’t make any difference. Instead, it often feels like you’re fully immersed in a serious or emotional scene and then suddenly you’re watching a very obvious product placement. It’s not the presence of ads that’s the issue, it’s how abruptly and heavily they’re inserted. I know this is common in the industry, but it still breaks the tone and pulls you out of the story.

This episode really highlighted how distracting heavy ad placement can be when it isn’t integrated thoughtfully. The show has already established that Peach is uncomfortable with guns, so seeing gun imagery associated with him, even through merch, felt inconsistent and less about the character and more about promotion, as if the placement itself mattered more than whether it made sense within the story. The same issue came up again at the end of the episode. After what was clearly implied to be an intimate night, having Peach wake up the next morning immediately craving cup noodles didn’t make sense and felt like another ad inserted without much consideration for the scene’s emotional flow. Interestingly, the only placement that worked for me was the sulking child and the chips scene, because it actually fit the situation and the characters involved.




I know it’s just a series, but it’s still fair to point out when certain things don’t make sense. 🫩🫩🫩

This Than character is honestly something else. He really was about to chase a man and leave his niece standing there alone. Some may say he was just excited, but shouldn’t a little child you’ve been taking care of for some time now be more important to you? Secondly, the way he called her out for calling him dad in front of the other kids with their own parents, just because he doesn’t want a man to get the wrong idea, was unnecessary. Especially considering her actual dad is dead, that moment must have been hurtful for her. He could have done that later. Finally, he is more focused on this man than on the niece he is supposed to be looking after. Mind you, the man he is paying so much attention to is only focused on his son or what I believe might be his nephew. I am only 22 minutes into episode one, so I cannot say I know the exact details, but these three things really irked me.







The series itself is okay at least, but the character Than, I hope this is not his whole thing.

Es TAN mala que no puedes dejar de mirar la pantalla, como en shock. Tan mala que te engancha… aunque a mí no me atrapó. Aguanté hasta el episodio 10 y tuve que rendirme 😹

Three things
1. “I love you”, what? I’m sorry???
2. “When I picture the future, It’s you I see” — say psyche right now 😹
3. I was this close 🤏🏼 to feeling bad for his ex, Lu Zhen, then I saw his reaction to that phone call from Fan Xiao… wow 🙂😹

Actually, you do have a point. I’ve asked this before, and I can’t believe I have to repeat it😪, but if someone isn’t interested in a particular genre, why do they force themselves to watch it? They end up talking down on a show that many people might genuinely enjoy, simply because it isn’t their preference, and then they write a bad review for something they already knew they wouldn’t like.

Personally, when I watch a show, I go into it with an open mind. If it’s not for me, I just drop it. I don’t force myself through it, and I don’t bother talking about it.

The audacity of this man 🫩, talking about “I’ll help you find him”, sorry? And “I want You Shu Lang’s kiss”, I’m sorry… I don’t think that’s how it works partner. 🥸

Oh, I think you should go watch it again, please. And I mean actually calm down to watch it. We all have our interests, of course, but this is the first time I’ve ever felt compelled to ask someone to give a series a chance.

And also, about the chemistry, no, just no. Did you even watch both episodes? 👀👀

I think you should wait a bit until more episodes are out, and then try watching again.🙂‍↔️🙂‍↔️

Exactly 😹🤲🏻 Two months later and I’m back to respond! I finally finished the series, and wow—amazing, really amazing.

I saw a review criticizing Keng and Namping’s acting. Saying “I’m shocked” doesn’t even cover how shocked I was 😅… but it’s okay. We all have different tastes, and that’s the beauty of it—what doesn’t work for one person can completely work for another. For me, they absolutely brought the characters and story to life.

Oh, I totally understand you! Nothing against The Next Prince, but it’s safe to say they bit off more than they could chew… if you get what I mean. Honestly, you could split that series into five different shows because they tried to cover so much that they ended up losing focus. I expected something a bit different — they had all the elements, but at some point the plot just got lost. I think I paused around episode 8, and I’ll probably finish it later. So far, it just feels like a lot is happening and yet nothing is really happening at the same time.

But as for this series, you should definitely give it a try when you’re ready. At least for now, they’re still doing a good job with the world-building, and I hope it only gets better from here.

Sorry for the very late response, and thank you very much! That’s exactly what I wanted to say. If a person rates a series they have no intention of watching low, I don’t think that makes sense. If it’s not something you’re personally interested in, that’s okay, but just because it’s not a genre you enjoy doesn’t mean you should rate it low. There are certain series I know I’d never watch, and I would never go to the profile of that series to rate it based on my personal preference. Why go through the torture of watching something you already know you won’t like, then act shocked when you don’t like it, and proceed to give it a low rating? I honestly don’t get it

Just checked—it’s definitely the system. I clicked “I haven’t finished”/“I haven’t completed the series,” and I didn’t even put how many episodes I’ve watched. Didn’t type anything. So yeah, it’s definitely the app 🙂‍↕️

Oh, sorry about that—that’s probably a mistake from the system. I’ve clearly only seen the first episode, and you even noted that I stated so in my review. Why would I intentionally claim I’ve seen all twelve? It’s most likely just an error. I’ll try correcting it.

“It’s comedyyyy,” I say, as I fill a bucket with tears🫩😞

Just finished this, oh my!
Still crying.
I knew I was gonna cry, but not this much…and the best part, ‘he got to sleep’ 😔🫂

You can imagine my shock when I read the synopsis mid episode…literally 16 minutes into episode one 🫩🫩🫩

In my opinion, this series brilliantly combines suspenseful storytelling with emotional depth. At first glance, the pacing may seem slow—very slow, in fact—but it’s deliberately crafted to build anticipation. Some scenes may initially leave you wondering how you got there, but later ones seamlessly piece everything together. The story gradually unfolds its layers, making you think you’ve figured things out, only to surprise you with even more when everything finally falls into place.

The directing also plays a key role, keeping viewers engaged without revealing too much too soon. You may initially suspect certain plot points, but the series masterfully withholds just enough information to keep you guessing. By the time everything unravels, you’re left with a sense of clarity and awe, as the twists and turns provide a truly satisfying conclusion.

This isn’t a show that relies on mind-blowing moments or constant action. Instead, it rewards patience, making the emotional and narrative payoff even more impactful. If you're a fan of slow-burn stories that build to something meaningful, Something in My Room is definitely worth the watch.
