Like, I want to watch because I love Park Jin Young’s acting, but the content and comments are making me wonder if I should. I love revenge dramas like My Name and Mercy for None. This sounds 1000x darker.

I don’t like the architect at all. I thought he may like Tuo, but the way he looked at Junxi makes me wonder… But then the preview has me going WTF Tuo! This guy needs to be set straight, quickly! Thankfully, they clear things up quickly in this series, so I’m sure it’ll resolve next week. But still, architect guy is a no for me. 👎🏽(Just realized he’s the younger step-brother in HIStory 4!)

My short recap (sorry, watching before work so I’m in a hurry): Sweet moments as they navigate work and their relationship. Tuo’s dad is typical and expected. I’m not sure why Tuo needs his permission when he’s grown. Maybe to keep the place? And the blocking of girls who like Junxi for his appearance but don’t know him- well, Junxi isn’t mad so it is what it is. I liked how he’s chasing after Tuo and initiating physical contact first. Again, sweet moments. Just put the architect guy in his place, please!

I need a new season. 💙💙💙

I’ve seen it. I’m one of the few who didn’t like it. I’m not a huge fan of Ohm. I preferred Between Us. Ohm was in that, but I could skip through his parts for the most part.

From the comments, sounds like I’m okay waiting until next week to watch- if I continue at all. It was already difficult to get through up to this point.

Ah. I also do that on my Notes app. Helps for those dramas not added here for whatever reason. That list has over 600. I also add emoticon codes for type, country, genre. platform, whether they are a novel or webtoon adaptation, and my overall rewatch rate (using 💗 or ❤️‍🔥). I have color coded font for TBAs and already released for my watchlist thee, too. But I like the hours/days/episode count here to really drive home my addiction level. 😂

👍🏽I wasn’t sure from your watch history (it’s a lot to update atp I’m sure), so I just shared my personal high rated and most memorable ones- that I’ve completed.

No problem! I hope you find some you enjoy😊

Japan 🇯🇵 : (Also only BLs)
The thing about Japanese BLs is that there are a lot of anime-like expressions and internal monologues. They are not for everyone, but each JBL offers a deeper meaning they are trying to convey that the characters are struggling with and need to overcome. If you find those, you will likely find more enjoyment in the series.

-Takara-kun & Amagi-kun (my most rewatched drama)

-My Beautiful Man (Seasons 1 and 2)
-My Beautiful Man: Eternal (movie)

-Takara's Treasure
-Cosmetic Playlover
-Life: Love on the Line
-Our Youth (there is some real life controversy with one of the MLs shortly after the release with him molesting someone, so the choice is yours to watch or not- it's a good story)
-I Cannot Reach You
-I Hear the Sunspot (Silhouette of Your Voice is the original 2017 version)
-Our Dining Table
-At 25:00 in Akasaka
-Cherry Magic! Thirty Years of Virginity Can Make You a Wizard?! (the original version is Japanese, which I prefer tbh)
-Egoist (movie - sad)
-Kamisama no Ekohiiki
-Naked Dining: Love, Life and Liberation
-Old Fashioned Cupcake (age gap)
-Minato's Laundromat (1 and 2) (large age gap)
-The Cornered Mouse Dreams of Cheese
-The Novelist
-The Boyfriend (reality show but 100% worth the watch)

Ok. One more question and I got you. Are you looking for BLs only, or any worthwhile drama?

Do you have a country preference? I have recommendations for Thailand, Korea, Taiwan, China, and Japan. (I’ve seen well over 400 BLs since early 2024.)

Agree. What’s the point? Just for something negative to say or the sake of it?

Only 2 episodes in. A lot of people wait to rate until more come out. But don’t judge by the ratings for brand new series. I suggest giving it a try. If you can stand the horror, it’s really good. CGI isn’t ridiculously done. Acting isn’t over the top. Dialogue doesn’t make my eyes roll back. Also not overly sweet, too. 👍🏽

Should be up. it was up for me on time. You need VIP on iQIYI to watch it, though.

Episode 2 was so good! Things are really heating up and now I’m more intrigued. Who is the guy in khaki that keeps showing up? How is Master Prem connected to Khem’s past life? What is this grudge Ramphueng has over Khem?

My money’s still on some thwarted love she had for Chayos (I think that’s who the khaki guy is…?) and Khem got in the way of it when Chayos fell for Khem. And Prem became a rival, too, in this past life. I’m just guessing. Seems predictable that way, but still hella interesting and entertaining.

So far nothing is making me roll my eyes, so I’m happy. Keng and Namping finally on screen makes me happy- I love that they don’t have a silly script.

I also love that FirstOne and Tle are in this and set up as the second couple. I thought that Chan liked Jet in episode 1, but it looks like he was focused on Khem in episode 2, maybe? 😊 All speculation because I haven’t read the book. I should though, because I dislike surprises. I guess that’s why I don’t normally do horror. But I couldn’t pass up Keng and Namping’s first drama together. Nope! 🙂‍↔️

Another week of waiting begins.

This really is following the novel closely. I am definitely looking forward to the next episode. Hua Yong is by far my most favorite character. And Huang Xing plays him perfectly. King manipulator to the max and I’m loving it. So entertaining and I’m not ashamed to admit it.

The enigma personality is crazy. Poor Shaoyou has NO clue. That S-class alpha pride is his “downfall”. Hua Yong loves him and tolerates it to an extent, calling his anger cute while punishing him when he steps out of line. But at the same time, he’s being all domestic as an omega and further ingraining himself into Shuayou’s heart. I feel for Shaoyou, but I know his happiness will come…eventually. So very much love these two. My favorite couple in the series. 😊


And I love the bestie dynamic between Hua Yong and Wen Lang. The goading by Wen Lang leading to Hua Yong to release those pheromones and the whole apple scene later…loved it.

You know who I feel for? Pin Ming. That poor guy is going through! I know it’s because he truly cares about his boss, but damn! He needs a raise and a vacation after all this is over.

You’re likely right. Sigh. Maybe the last episode will be longer… (laughs in tears as my PTSD flares remembering RL’s shorter finale)
