I’m honestly impressed with myself for making it through every episode.
Where do I even start?I’m confused. I’m confused. I’m still confused. Not exactly the best way to begin a review, right?
I didn’t watch the Korean original, so I went in blind. The plot sounded like a good time — some mystery, some drama… spicy potential. But the execution? Disappointing. I couldn’t connect with any of the characters, and the “mystery” felt more exhausting than engaging. Everything was happening way too fast.
By episode 3, she drops the big “I love you.”
Excuse me? When did that happen? How did we get here?Was there a deleted episode? Did I blink and miss a romantic arc?
I guess two years passed at some point, but time is just a suggestion in this show.
He fell in love with her too, apparently.
Again —how? Where? Show me the receips.
Courtroom battles, ex-girlfriends, past traumas, declarations of love, lies, deception — all shoved in like we’re racing through the plot at Max Verstappen speed.
And look, I wanted to like it. With the right timing and buildup, this could’ve been a interesting mystery-romance. But instead, we got a painfully simplistic plot, flat characters, and plot twists so cliched they needed subtitles that said: “You should be shocked now.”
Even the finale didn’t move me. The crimes were solved and I was just sitting there like:
“Cool. Sure. That’s... definitely a conclusion. Can I go now?”
Oh, and for some reason, I thought there were 11 episodes.
Imagine my face when I realized I had to sit through one more.
The finale…
Was it entirely logical? No. Was the ending awfully convenient? Sure. Was it all a bit silly? Definitely. Was it kind of absurd? 100% . Do I have regrets? Just emotional ones.
4.0 — rounded up.
Because I’m feeling generous and a good mood.

Well, this thriller was… less than thrilling. So there’s that.
The show is dark. Really dark. Sometimes even melancholic. The characters are all soaked in hatred, violence, and pessimism.To be fair, I probably wasn’t in the best mindset when I watched it, which might explain part of my reaction. Still, I almost dropped it during the 2nd episode… then again in the 4th… and once more in the 5th. Did I struggle through it? Yep. Never have I watched a thriller that felt this boring. Oh my gosh, it was painfully slow. I kept thinking there were so many chances for more exciting or impactful scenes, but instead we got bland character interactions on repeat.
The plot itself didn’t help either. On paper, it sounds awesome: men being murdered, a killer impersonator showing up years later, and a cop who happens to be the son of the woman behind the first crimes. That’s disturbing, shocking, and the kind of thing you can’t look away from—like a car crash. The concept hooked me, but the execution just fell flat. Honestly, I think most of the problem was in the delivery.
On the surface, it’s a gripping story about survival and pursuit. And yeah, it was sick, twisted, and depraved… but it was also really hard to follow and, weirdly enough, boring. Some parts felt super repetitive—especially the conversations, the characters’ behaviors, and Cha Su Yeol’s inner thoughts. Maybe if the series had been shorter, it would’ve had more impact and a much faster pace.
The big reveals and plot twists were tricky. My reactions were always somewhere between “Whoa, that’s surprising” and “Yeah, saw that coming.” I’d say the ending was clever and well put together, but still kind of predictable. Overall, it just didn’t land for me.
That being said, I might give it another try someday. I really liked the psychological angle. The screenwriter does a great job showing how people react differently to trauma—some turn it inward, some take it out on others—and both are equally destructive.
So yeah, 6 stars instead of 5,5. I kept watching, hoping things would finally click and come together. In some ways, they almost did… but not quite.

He forgot to read "The Art of War" by Sun Tzu
Well, it's complicated.Let me try to explain. The plot was intricate and creative. The characters are all high calibre. However, I found that having finished the series I was unsure if I really enjoyed it or not.
Good storyline, great cliffhanger at the end, plot twists and boring games. It was a good story, just not quite what I was hoping for.
I really enjoyed Squid Game1 and was very excited to watch the sequel. Unfortunately, I found myself really struggling with this series. The atmosphere and tension that made season 1 so compelling is sadly largely absent here. It was well thoughtfully and very obviously well written out and executed, but for me it was too much slowly. It felt kinda dull for most of the show and didn’t really catch my attention until about 3 episode in.
There are some characters and relationships that I liked, but honestly so much of this just fell so disappointingly flat for me.
I guess that is all a matter of personal taste, though.
I'd really like to rate this season one higher, as it had a lot of interesting stuff I enjoyed in it.

Abracadabra
A bunch of fun-sized stories, all sprinkled with a little mysticism and superstition. The best part? If one story doesn’t charm you, no worries — just hop to the next. The characters and plots aren’t connected, so there’s zero emotional commitment required.It’s like opening a box of totally random cookies. One’s classic mint chocolate, the next is mango-chili, and then — bam — strawberries with black pepper, buried under way too much pink frosting and rainbow sprinkles. You literally never know what’s coming… and honestly, that’s half the fun.
Most of the stories were genuinely entertaining and kept me smiling. A couple didn’t quite land for me — but hey, not every cookie can be your favorite flavor. Overall though? Fun.
My absolute favorite was MuTeLuv: Love Lock — nothing wild or dramatic, just soft, sweet, and feel-good. I also loved MuTeLuv: “Hi” by My Luck — so fun, so charming, and honestly kind of perfect… especially if you’re into BL. And then there’s MuTeLuv: Fist Foot Fusion — silly, lighthearted, and very enjoyable. Am I slightly biased because of Sky Wongravee? …Maybe. Probably. Yes.
Overall, it’s a cute little anthology with some genuinely strong stories hidden inside. My average score would be 6.5, but I’m rounding it up to an 7 (in my grading system, that's actually a good grade.) because the good ones really are that good.
I’d recommend this series to anyone in the mood for something easy, sweet, and low-stress — like dessert, but calorie-free

I trust you. As part of my family, I trust you… that is, not at all.
I hesitate to say too much here, because I feel like you should really let the series surprise you.What you need to know:The Bupphachinda sisters are at their breaking point. Their plan is to risk everything to keep the truth to themselves and hide all the dirty little secrets they have. They also need to find out what happened to their sister — and to their family as a whole — and, last but not least, they shouldn’t trust anyone... not even each other.
Of coursee, things never go as planned.
They get a glimpse of what was, and it’s anything but what they expected.
The story deals heavily with murder, sorrow, betrayal, deceit, distrust, dysfunctional family dynamics, and mental health struggles.
My experience:
From the first episode, my heart was in a vice. I was constantly guessing, theorizing, second-guessing every smile and every word — and yet, beneath the tension, there was this aching sadness I couldn’t shake. The youngest sister is gone. Another (Picha) tries to play the victim and at the same time meets an old friend — or perhaps a new love — whom she must deceive. Baibua stands at the edge of desperation, facing a chance to finally have what she thought she always wanted. Chomphu — beautiful and confident, but actually, deep down, vulnerable and deeply unhappy.
Around them swirl the sweet cousin,the domineering father, the mother who raised them to be wary of everyone, even each other, the strange maid, the unsettling uncle, and a whole web of secrets waiting to be revealed.
I screamed at the characters more times than I can count — Why would you do that?! — and yet, when the truth finally unraveled, I just sat there and thought: Yes. I understand.
Final thoughts:
Hide & Sis is a haunting tale of regret, sorrow, lies, and unconditional love — the kind that may not look like love at all, but still binds people together in ways they can’t escape.

A tale of choices, sacrifices, and second chances... just not quite what I was hoping for.
Yeon Si Eun has reached the breaking point—feeling like he's run out of options, he's determined to end it all...or not. He’s caught in a harrowing spiral of regret and desperation. Trapped between the need of redemption and the weight of guilt and He must confront his choice.You feel Yeon Si Eun pain, his desperation, and the oppressive darkness of the world he who surrounds him.Weak Hero Class 2 is a series for second chances, wrong choices, and the devastating outcomes of human avarice.This show is more than just a violence story. It’s a reflection on choices, desires, sacrifices and realityHe the asking spectators to consider to consider - I if given a second chance, would we truly make other decisions, or are we doomed to repeat the same steps? However, the spectators can expect a story filled with dynamic characters and blood.
Judging from season 1, I thought I'd either absolutely eat this up or it would be lacking depth.It was definitely something in between. I didn't know what was happeningt when I went into it (I haven't read the Webtoon), but it's safe to say this didn't blow my world away. I love season 1 and I just wish the execution was a bit different. I'm very into friendship stories, so I'm sad I couldn't like this more. This is a story with near non-stop action, and the violence scenes are pretty much the only reason why this gets 7,5 stars instead of 7. The portrayal of violence and its suffocating grip was raw and powerful, capturing the inability to make the right choice.
So, а random chance encounter with the wrong person can change the entire course of your whole life....

Lol, lol, lol... OK, hear me out.
While this was ridiculous and stupidly, it was also super entertaining. I was laughing so hard.But you'd think this was just a funny and fatuously series... yes! Тhis is it’s so deeply unserious that it feels like a dream your subconscious mashed together in the midst of a Sunday nap.
I won't go into too much detail about the plot and characters from the series, but here are my quick thoughts:
The plot
A chaotic love triangle with elements of real estate.
The characters
Heng was amazing. Like, he made me laugh so hard. He even made me tear up towards the end. He was so hilarious, nice and messy. He made me relate to him in many different moments (which is strange, if you know the plot). But I loved him so much for just being himself throughout. I loved Мо. He was cute, affectionate and at the end of the series, I felt like punching him. All I need is just one punch. Just one. I also loved Kongdech. He was the "I love you despite everything" vibes guy, and I was 100% here for it.
And ultimately, this is a fun, fast-paced, silly, and heartbreaking rollercoaster of goofiness. Did I like it? Yes. This is a very quirky and charming (somehow) romantasy ... but also and has some undertones in it as well.
PS
I like the soundtrack. Apologies to anyone that heard me singing.
PS1
I loved all the Easter eggs that appeared in the episodes.

Did i just finish this story or this story finished me?
One of the easiest 10-star ratings I’ve given in ages. So I loved everything about this series. That's it the review.OК ОК
Kidding I have thoughts!
I liked characters and their story. Different point of view is used, which helps us to get into the hearts of the characters.Their feelings, their connection, friendship, support and chemistry between them … all felt so real. I liked both Saint and Shin. Both have overcome some anxious stuff in their past and had different ways to deal with that but yet they made the perfect couple ....uh uh friends and balanced each other out. OK. They are friends. They are the best of friends.
GMM believes in this???
Ohh lord have mercy ...just friends, just classmates, just neighbors.You get to see them bicker and banter (their banter was insane, one of a kind ), learn eachother by pushing buttons, flirt and they take care of each other. The chemistry was off the charts. My heart was skipping beats in a way that probably wasn’t healthy. This story ticked all my BL wishes and I can't gush enough about how much I enjoyed it. OK. I miss the kisses but I can survive it. Maybe...
The plot itself is set at a great pace with a little of everything. I get that build up I long for but also get snippets of side characters that complement the story giving you a little hope at the possibilities of their futures. A little angst and suspense, bickering and banter and some real emotional moments that had my eyes leaking a many tears.
That’s not all that’s to it though, High School Frenemy also excellently highlights friendship and positive teacher-student relationships. I am inclined to say, that what this story emphasizes is the love found in companionship, in whatever form that may take.
Another aspect which makes this story fantastic is that the characters have realistic flaws and shortcomings, which makes the story and character dynamics so much more interesting and relatable.
Their actions stem from their own experiences, doubts, and motivations, so you’ll always think, “Well, I get why they did that”.
Story - Once upon a time, two friends...… or something else entirely?
Acting/Cast - It's almost impossible to find a criticism for ... OK I am biased and please forgive me.
Music The song by Sky&Nani listens like listening to the favorite songs during a car drive. I hum away with the highs and the lows, drum with your fingers on the steering wheel, and turn volume button louder and louder while smiling and I'm trying to sing the lyrics.
Rewatch Value - Can I watch this series again for the first time? Can the aliens come and do that little luminous thing, so I can forget and watch it again?
Overall this story was very intense, captivating and moving. I enjoyed getting to see these characters and loved the finale of the story, it put a huge smile on my face.
PS
Chatjen was also amazing... He was a strong, kind, sweet, incredibly good and and I love him so much.
PS1
They sold it as a bromance, but I bought it as BL

Scooby-Doo, where are you!?
I liked. I liked it a lot. Filled with high jinks both terrorizing and hilarious, Peaceful Property is the ultimate modern take on Ghostbusters.What started as a small plot to exorcism turned into this grand adventure between this complete lovable group of friends! These ghost hunters is Everything! First of all, they're hilarious, with banter and quips that you can't get enough of. Second, they have their ups and downs that make it all seem so human! Third, their friendship is just so real and sincere! And fourth, they stick together, work together and ... I mean, they do their first spooky investigation together. I want to join!!! Fifth, this show hosts such a diverse cast of characters that is just so necessary and heartwarming to see! The characters are well-developed, and despite the whirlwind of events, it’s easy to get caught up in their stories.
What I loved most about this series was is the way it keeps you so engaged the entire time! Seriously, there's never a dull moment! Each episode is packed with action, suspense, and enough twists to make your head spin. There isn't ever a lull.
This was such a thrill from start to finish, like I couldn’t put it down!

I need season 2
I’m going to keep this review short and sweet.This is the kind of story that feels slightly… strange — and yet, somehow, that’s exactly how it should be. The plot is like a train wreck you can’t look away from — in the best way possible. I just couldn’t stop watching. It’s a playful, unconventional story that fully embraces its chaos and creativity. I laughed, I loved, I cried, I cringed — and I’d do it all over again.
Did I mention I liked it?
I absolutely adored this one.
Take a typical Korean drama. Add a teen who’s a fan of BL novels, four new teachers at an all-girls school who are treated like K-pop idols, a supportive group of friends, a few girls in love, and a few who are jealous. Then throw in a secret writer of BL stories inspired by his teachers. It shouldn’t work, but somehow, it does.
The story embraces chaos in the most delightful way, delivering a quirky and unpredictable plot with energetic pacing. The cast is funny and compelling, and the music fits the tone perfectly.
There’s also a very funny Pythagoras and an annoying little brother who loves Coca-Cola.
Most of all, though, I love when a show tackles lies and gets it right. It reminds us how important it is to be honest, admit our mistakes, and face the consequences.
In the end, this drama feels like pure chaos, but beneath all the comedy and ridiculous situations, there’s a story about friendship, honesty, growing up, and learning how messy people can be.
It may not be perfect, but honestly, that’s part of its charm. This was the kind of show that made me smile and one I’d happily dive back into all over again.

I have to admit I have some mixed feelings after finishing this one.
Was it a bit dramatic? Yes. Was there angst? Yes. Passion and romance? Absolutely.There were definitely parts I enjoyed, and I liked the ending, but literallyanything that is not the main couple, I couldn't have given any less of a fuck about. Like I'm being so honest, anything that didn't directly involve Tongrak and Mahasamut as a couple, I didn't care about.The characters were cute, Tongrak was tsunderet. I preferred Mahasamut, I adored him, honestly. He is just so adorable.Look, this story is cute, annoyingand sexy. It's straightforward and low-stakes. As with MAME's previous show, it doesn't necessarily do anything remarkable or revolutionary, but there's nothing wrong with that.

"The law doesn't have heart."
Oh my heart!Truly loved this! I fell in love with the story of what’s happening, how it’s told and everything else’s in between. This is everything I expected it to be from start to end! It's quite intense and fast-paced from the start. It kept my interest and had me on the edge of my seat.
I enjoyed this even with the emotional damage I experienced. I would recommend this to anyone who’s into both genres thriller and romance
I wasn’t sure how Wasan and Kan would work things out. Things look rather complex at the start of this story and the characters seem to be thrown into one impossible situation after another throughout the time. This show had plenty of suspense to keep things moving along and there were quite a few times that I was worried about the safety of some of my favorite characters.
The ending is...
The most perfect ending for an amazing series, even though I'm still sad & emotionally destroyed by it.
Let me know what you think!
It is truly an amazing story that keeps you intrigued the entire time!

Season 1 leaves you wanting more. Season 2 makes you regret asking for it.
Season 3... how do I even begin to review this?First of all, don’t worry — I won’t go into spoilers. If for any reason I do mention something spoiler-y, I’ll make sure to give a warning.
So, here’s the deal.
When I don’t like how a series ends, I try to remind myself that it’s partly my own fault — that the show suffered under the weight of my expectations. And I know this series is full of plot holes, unrealistic situations, contrived character development, laughable explanations, and a whole load of “shock the viewer” moments. It feels overly commercial at times.
Do I sometimes wish for an ending wrapped in a pretty pink ribbon? Yes.
Do I know better by now? Also yes.
Should I just go watch a Disney movie next time? Probably.
If you enjoy a story- and character-driven narrative with incredible acting, you’ll love it.If you require an explosion every minute to stay entertained — you’ll love it too.If you’re looking for something darker, something that leaves a knot in your stomach and makes you walk away questioning the nature of humanity — this might be for you.
However, I did feel that the overall story execution was underwhelming — especially the ending. Not as bad as Season 2, but... yeah.
My Feelings, in %:
100%: Yup, the ending sucked. I didn’t like it. At one point, I thought we were heading for a Westworld-style twist — and, well… they went for it.
90%: There was no way this series was going to end in a way that satisfied me. Good and evil, greed and justice, loss and gain — they exist side by side and can’t be cleanly separated. I’m sorry. I, too, want to live in a fairy tale where the hero wins and the villain disappears forever.
60%: Every 30 minutes: “Maybe I should reread 1984. Or stare at a wall. That might be better.
30%: I’m still a fan... but honestly, it could’ve ended with Season 1.
10%: Do we need a spin-off? Or is this just turning into a money-making machine recycling the same story?
cough yes cough
Anyway, I’m off to emotionally recover... or rewatch Season 1. Whichever comes first.
That’s all I can say.

Very cute but predictable
I really don’t know how I feel about this one. It’s one of those series that left me conflicted about how to rate it. On the one hand, it’s cute and fluffy; on the other, it’s boring and a bit annoying.Deep breath
Okay. I’m not saying it was bad—it wasn’t! But it was definitely slow at times. The beginning hooked me right in, all sweet and soft, and then… it kind of wandered off. I thought it had fallen asleep. And just when I was about to give up—boom! Something happened, my heart did a little flip, and before I knew it, I was reading the novel because I had to know what happened next. (Patience? Never heard of her.)
There’s nothing too complicated or surprising—just a slow story about a boy with life problems meeting another boy with life problems, and together they slowly untangle their messes. Simple, but kind of lovely in its own way. The main characters weren’t perfect, but that’s what made them feel real. They made mistakes, they learned, and that made me root for them. It felt like a cozy Hallmark movie—cute, funny, sweet, and honestly very pretty to watch.
There were a lot of things I really liked: the characters had depth, their motivations made sense, the change of setting was refreshing, and the natural scenery was gorgeous. But I’ll be honest: if it wasn’t about Jom and Yo as a couple, I just didn’t care much. Screaming girls, two idiots trying to stir up trouble in the village, classmates fighting, family drama, annoying brothers… nope. I just wanted more of the soft moments between the leads.
And oh, Jom and Yo… they were precious. I don’t usually go for slow romances, but these two won me over. I loved that the show took its time to tell the story properly. I appreciated that it showed a lot of happiness throughout, not just in the final episode. I liked how the two of them communicated about their problems, supported each other, and stayed honest. Watching them grow closer and explore their emotions was a joy.
I laughed, I giggled, I even got a little teary. The hopeless romantic in me was living. Their chemistry was amazing—they were sweet, respectful, and mature, which made them so easy to love. Part of me wanted to give them 10 stars just for being that wholesome. I really wanted to give the whole thing 10 stars just for them. But then I remembered all the filler, and I sighed.
So yeah, overall: very cute. Not life-changing, but definitely not bad.

Bonus points for the cat. Always bonus points for the cat.
This was incredibly sweet and clearly pandered to the fans of SOTUS and KristSingto.Don’t get me wrong — I loved the show and had a blast watching it. I screamed at some scenes, cried at others, and absolutely enjoyed all the hidden Easter eggs. It’s a sweet cheese fest with a pinch of angst and and some pining which is always appreciated.
But I also have to be honest with myself: the plot was… cliche.
Yeah, they deserved something more thrilling. More innovative. More shocking. I don’t know — something Emmy-worthy! You get what I mean, right? Something extraordinary. Something that says, “Yes, this is art.”
Am I being dramatic? Possibly. Do I care? Not really. Let me have my dramatic monologue.
This was super cute and delightfully silly (seriously though, who goes into the sea with an open wound? Antibiotics said “noооо”). But it was also so much fun! Just a light, fluffy romance with two main characters… and a cat.
They both healed their hearts with each other’s support, while also coming to terms with the mistakes of their past.
I liked that it started with Phi being super rough — to the point where I actually found him kind of annoying. He definitely crossed a few lines. But as it turns out, he’s just terrible at managing his emotions because he’s sad and hurt. While that doesn't excuse his behavior, it does make it understandable. maybe ... Tam, on the other hand, was insecure, a little jealous, sunshine in human form, and an absolute king of flirting. It broke my heart to see how much he had lost — and how hard he tried to protect Phi from more pain.
Together, they were tender, playful, and so easy to love for. Exactly what I want in a feel-good romcom. This was a story about second chances, emotional healing, and the kind of love that teaches you to be honest — with others, and with yourself.
The girls were tolerable — a bit annoying at times, but generally funny. I have to admit, I actually liked Kaoki, and overall, they didn't bother me like female characters sometimes tend to.
Okay, I admit it – I’m a big fan of Sosay and her vet.(=^ - ^=)
All in all, this was a great series that I would recommend to anyone who loves a good romcom and lovable MCs.
7.5 stars from me — mostly because Krist and Singto deserve so much more. (Yep… I’m totally biased.)
