“I'm a prince who doesn't want a princess, I'm a prince who wants a prince of his own instead.” This series felt like a breath of fresh air on a sunny summer day. It’s lighthearted and fun, yet it balances tender, vulnerable moments with serious themes, touching on class, identity, and personal choices. The amnesia storyline was surprisingly well done and really helped the characters grow.
Winny and Satang have been two of my favorites since We Are, and their chemistry is undeniable. I love their playful push-and-pull dynamic. I’m so glad they finally got their first lead roles, because they have so much to offer, especially Winny, who lets his characters’ emotions shine through in his facial expressions with a strikingly sincere and natural authenticity.
Mond (Pheng) and Ryu (Dr. Wut) were such a pleasant surprise. They’re absolutely adorable together, and their storyline added real depth by exploring acceptance of one’s sexuality and confronting homophobia. Seeing them married, adopting a child, and building a family was easily one of the highlights of the show. Neo and Mint were delightful too.
The cinematography is simply gorgeous. Overall, this is a feel-good series about love and acceptance, and it’s definitely one I’ll be rewatching.

The film follows the rise of Tee Yai, a legendary Thai outlaw played by Apo Nattawin, a bold thief who pulls off daring heists and escapes that feel almost mythical and his childhood friend Rerk, played by Wisarut Himaratana. Tee and Rerk grew up together and built a bond for life, swearing to protect one another and they stick to it till the very end.
The cast is solid, and their performances really stick with you. Apo once again proves his versatility and why I see him as one of Thailand’s finest actors. With his commanding presence, he delivers a gripping performance as Tee Yai, capturing both the character’s charm and brutal edge. Wisarut Himaratana, playing the loyal friend, brings a grounded, thoughtful energy to the duo. One of the film’s standout elements is the chemistry between Apo and Wisarut, their silent glances speak volumes, and they genuinely feel like lifelong friends on screen.
Also worth mentioning is Kao Supassara as Dao, one of the few women with real presence in this gritty, male-dominated world. Her role is subtle but powerful, adding emotional depth to the story.
Despite being nearly two hours long, the film flies by thanks to strong direction that skillfully balances action and drama. With striking cinematography, meticulous attention to detail, and electrifying action scenes, it’s a visually rich and culturally layered film that’s absolutely worth watching.

Zomvivor is more than just a survival thriller, it’s a powerful metaphor for the fragility of civilization, the limits of morality, the abuse of power, and the fight to hold onto humanity in extreme situations. The zombies aren’t just physical threats; they represent the socially excluded, the ones ignored or silenced by the system, forced to find ways to survive in oppressive environments. As the show puts it: “The best test subjects are the ones who have no choice.”
What really sets Zomvivor apart is how it challenges the usual zombie trope. These aren’t mindless monsters, they’re infected people who still show traces of humanity. That twist adds so much emotional depth.
The university setting works as a microcosm of privilege and power, where survivors have to navigate hierarchies, moral dilemmas, and social exclusion. It’s not just about fighting zombies, it’s about confronting rules, expectations, inequality, and personal demons. Trust, friendship, and family bonds are pushed to the limit, and unlikely alliances form in the chaos. Each group fights to survive using whatever strengths they have.
The cast is phenomenal. Every character feels emotionally layered and real. You can feel their fear, anguish, sadness, desperation, and guilt. The emotional weight and personal struggles are the heart of the series. The last two episodes had me in tears.
Each episode runs a little over an hour, but they fly by. The pacing is intense and gripping, with some plot twists that keep things fresh. The production quality is top-tier, stunning cinematography and a beautiful soundtrack. Already counting down to the next season cause there’s so much more story to tell.

The problem with this series isn’t that the script is weak, it’s that it’s fundamentally misguided. I can deal with a weak script if the core idea is solid but just poorly developed. But deciding to base the plot around an alleged rape and treating that as a good narrative choice? Sorry, but that was a huge misstep. Dragging out the false rape storyline for two whole episodes was wrong, and the way the topic was handled, so carelessly and without depth, made it even worse. It was a string of bad decisions that should never have made it past the writing room.I don’t blame the actors, though. They did the best they could with what they were given. Overall, I actually enjoyed the performances of the six main actors and thought the chemistry between the couples was strong. Arm came off a bit stiff at first, but he grew into the role nicely. Tum and Klah definitely deserved more screen time. The jealous female characters felt unnecessary. I look forward to seeing this cast again in future series, but with a better script.

10 Things I Want to Do before I Turn 40
3 people found this review helpful
Tojo Suzume is such a charming character because of how vulnerable and real he is. He’s quiet, but endearing, dreamy, sweet, and gentle. At 39, he’s facing a quiet existential crisis: stuck in a routine between home and work, no excitement, and no relationships for over a decade. That realization leads him to make a list of “10 things I want to do before I turn 40.” It’s a simple gesture, but deeply symbolic, his way of reconnecting with the world and with himself.
Tanaka Keiji, on the other hand, is confident, playful, charming, romantic, idealistic, and emotionally open. He believes in love, even when it’s messy or inconvenient. The way he challenges age differences and workplace norms shows how confident he really is.
And it’s the chemistry between Suzume and Keiji that makes this series so special. They’re opposites in many ways, but they complement each other beautifully. Keiji brings color and spontaneity into Suzume’s life, gently nudging him out of his comfort zone. His assertiveness is never pushy, it’s rooted in genuine affection and curiosity. Kazama Shunsuke and Shoji Kohei absolutely nailed their roles. Their interactions felt so sincere. Also, I have a soft spot for couples with a height difference. 😉
Suzume represents so many adults who, at some point, wonder if it’s too late to experience something new. His journey is about rediscovering joy, connection, and the courage to be vulnerable. And the answer he finds through humor, affection, and bravery is a beautiful reminder that hope is always within reach.

What really made me give it a 10 were the actors playing Sorn, Jun, and Thanu. They totally carried the series. They brought humor, emotion, and realism, and kept me coming back each week just to see how far Sorn would go to avoid admitting he's been in love with Jun all along.
Sorn isn’t perfect, and he never pretended to be. He’s a walking red flag, possessive and immature, but you only truly grasp how vulnerable he is when Jun finally stands his ground and walks away. And Jun isn’t as innocent as he looks either.
Boat and Oat have insane chemistry and did an amazing job making their characters believable. The actor playing Thanu also stole every scene he was in. Maybe it was the weak plot, but even with solid acting, the chemistry between Yoon and Punpun and between Michelle and Poy just didn’t hit the mark.
It’s not a perfect series, and it won’t be for everyone, but I had fun with it.

I genuinely loved this series. It kept me hooked, episode after episode. It’s about two friends who fall for each other but are too scared to confess their feelings, worried it might ruin their friendship. Was it slow? Yeah, but I thought the pacing was just right. Plus, it’s only eight episodes, each under 30 minutes long. If it had dragged on or had longer episodes, I might’ve felt differently. But honestly, the timing worked for me.
The entire cast delivered outstanding performances, especially the three male leads. They conveyed their characters’ emotions so naturally, and their chemistry was amazing. Watching the characters grow throughout the show was really satisfying, and Ha Min’s actions at the end really surprised me.
Stunning cinematography paired with a beautiful OST.

Ouvi falar da série e resolvi assistir. Sinceramente não era uma série que merecia ser censurada e cancelada na metade do caminho. O relacionamento enemy to lovers entre Bai Luo Yin e Gu Hai me manteve entretida e ansiosa pelo desenrolar da história. Adorei o jeito irreverente, apaixonado, travesso, atrevido e imprevisível de Gu Hai. A química entre os atores é inegável, quer eles estejam brigando ou flertando entre si e prendeu minha atenção de um jeito cativante. Eles pareciam muito confortáveis e à vontade um com o outro. É uma pena que a série foi abruptamente interrompida, ficando sem resolução. Mesmo assim, merece um 10 pelo que apresentou em 15 episódios e em respeito às pessoas envolvidas no projeto.

Secret Lover lived up to her reputation as a charming, emotionally layered friends-to-lovers series. I’m totally in love with this series. Guno and Chance share strong chemistry with memorable romantic scenes. Unlike typical BL series, the female characters were well-developed and charismatic, especially You Mei. She won me over with her quirky vibe.
But the heart of the show, however, lies in Jun Xi’s parents. When Jun Xi’s dad proudly said, “They’re my sons,” I had a big smile on my face. They really embodied the kind of acceptance and love the world needs. This series is a must-watch and definitely worth revisiting.

The story had me hooked, counting down the days for each new episode. The entire cast delivered captivating performances, with Jimmy and Ballchon standing out in particular. It’s a top-tier production with stunning sets, gorgeous costumes, and a beautiful soundtrack.

That said, surprisingly, I still had fun watching it. It’s one of those shows you just put on to relax and enjoy. Everything is chaotic, but at the same time cute and entertaining.
