Nong was the star of the show.

I am so happy Max and Nat got their own series, these two have amazing chemistry and I loved watching the relationship between Kon Diao and Yi in Cutie Pie so I'm happy they got their own series.

Like it predecessor Cutie Pie, Naughty Babe is keeping with the humor and comedic moments which I very much enjoy. You get to learn more about Kon Diao and Yi's past and the reason behind some of Yi's choices and actions in Cutie Pie.

I found it hilarious the archenemies Yi got as the episodes went on. In Yi's mind, that dog really was out to get him 😂.

I enjoyed the family dynamic in Naughty Babe and I especially adore Makorn and his obvious love and favoritism towards Kon Diao. I love how the show made it perfectly clear, as did Makorn a few times throughout the show, that he was Team Kon Diao and Yi better wisen up or else. Diao really developed from the character you're first introduced to in Cutie Pie, now he doesn't take any of Yi's crap and is even seen getting revenge against him. It was very amusing to watch Kon Diao's revenges.

I absolutely hate Kon Diao's family. How someone as sweet, caring and kinda naïve as Diao can come from a crook/conman like Sattha is just amazing to me.

The whole amnesia storyline was both good and bad. It helped the plot progress but it also got a little old as well. I didn't particularly like Yi lying to Diao about his amnesia but I understood the reasons for it. The romantic moments between Kon Diao and Yi are stunning to watch. Max and Nat did an incredible job showing the love these two characters feel for each other. Amazing acting from them both.

Yi accepting that his dad loves and adores Kon Diao as the son he never had is just hilarious to me.

The chase scene and that whole plan, while I understood why it was happening was odd and the whole re-proposal thing was just confusing and while it was sweet was kinda a little pointless. Maybe I just missed the mark on what it was about/meant.

And Nong strikes again turning father against his son and I don’t mean Kon Diao!! I died laughing at that whole exchange between Makorn and Diao. Nong really is Yi’s archnemisis. I love the teasing relationship they all have in this scene.

I still hate Kon Diao’s dad but I did really like how he had his chance to make amends with Dio and realize what he was actually doing to his son and hopefully change for the better. I thought the moment between them during the wedding was sweet.

Overall the acting was amazing Nat and Max really shined in this series. The plot was okay, a little boring in places but overall very enjoyable, the music was sweet and fit the scenes.

I had some issues in the beginning but the ending was magnificent.

Plot:
I had some issues with the beginning right off the bat. I wasn’t the biggest fan of Lian as he seemed really indifferent to Kuea and he acted a bit like an ass. The dates he took him on were more like scripted outings than dates. I also didn’t care for how Kuea hid his true self for so long. I understand his fear of showing his true self only to get rejected, but he still shouldn’t have played a caricature of himself. A couple episodes deep into the show and you start to see the characters dynamics. I started to enjoy and like Lian and Kuea’s relationship.

Do I think Lian and Kuea could have gone about things a lot differently? Oh, my definitely. But every show needs its drama. I don’t like how many secrets they keep from each other though. I loved the friendships between Kuea and his school friends and his relationship with Kondiao. Plus Yi and Lian's friendship. The side relationship were some of my favorites I absolutely adore Syn and Nuer and their first kiss was PERFECT, no matter how cheesy and cliché it might have been. I also really liked watching Hia Yi catch feelings for Kondiao and seeing their relationship and dynamic change and shift as the show went on. Dear God, that proposal scene gave me the WORST case of second hand embarrassment I’ve ever had. The fact it was at his dad’s birthday party and in front of a ton of people is.. it’s a no for me. It was made even worse when Kuea said no! Now, do I think Kuea was wrong for rejecting Lian’s proposal? No, I don’t. I think he did the right thing at the right time. Was it extremely embarrassing? Absolutely, but it was also a little stupid on Lian’s part as well. Who proposes at an important event right after a fight where all of Lian’s secrets about Kuea’s family and his properties come out? I absolutely adored the last episode, it was equal parts sweet, cute, funny and just plan adorable. The fact that Lian was sabotaging Kuea’s proposals just so he could propose again was hilarious and really sweet. Although I think Kuea’s proposal won.

Music:
I thin the songs sung by NuNew were amazing and fit the story and the scene they were in but they were a bit overused i my opinion.

Acting:
The acting is some of the best things about this show. NuNew and Zee did a fantastic job. Their acting really showed in the second to last episode. They both deserved awards for that performance. The background/side actors did a great job as well. You can really tell everyone had amazing chemistry with each other, especially NuNew and Zee, Nat and Max, and Yim and Tutor.

Random notes:
I think Foei and Yi's secretary are the funniest characters in the show.
Not Yi immediately regretting getting Nong for 4 episodes straight.
I love Lian's parents (especially in the last episode) and Kuea's mom.

An outstanding show

Well, I didn't expect to cry every single episode but I did. The raw emotion the actors are able to project with just a look or their body language is stunning and shows what raw talent this whole cast has. The acting was some of the best I've seen in my limited number of BL's watched, but still amazing.

The friendships in this show were some of my favorite things about it. The relationship between Manow, Team, and Pharm is so wholesome and it feels like the characters have known each other for years instead of months.

I got invested in the side characters almost as much as I was invested in Dean and Pharm, especially Team and Win. I can't wait to watch their series next.

I think the ending felt a little rushed in my opinion. I think one more episode would have helped with the pacing of the show, but everything was wrapped up nicely and I couldn't have asked for a better ending.

I will definitely be following all the actors in this show throughout they're careers, they are a very talented bunch.

I wish every show did something like this.

I wish every show did something like this, especially the shows with supernatural elements like 4 Minutes or Boy Next World.

This helped me understand the characters and the premise of the show so much better. Now I'm even more excited to watch it.

When I watched the first episode of Revamp, I was confused, like probably everyone is/was. When a show has a lot of cast members/ characters, it can be hard for me to remember everyone and what role they play, especially if I'm watching the show as it airs. This special helped a lot, and now I understand a lot more about the characters and how they fit into the story.

YOU NEED TO WATCH THIS!

I think this might be the fastest I’ve ever finished a show in my life.

I knew just from the clips I’ve seen that I would really enjoy Kiseki: Dear to Me, but I didn’t think I would love it as much as I did. I could not stop watching or thinking about this show. The way it was filmed was absolutely beautiful, the acting was simply amazing no words, especially for Taro as this was his first series! The range he showed was incredible! The chemistry between Nat and Louis and Kai and Taro was chief’s kiss amazing. The Cinematography was stunning; I swear some of those shots were just beautiful, the storyline wasn’t that confusing despite it being less than 30 minute long episodes. Everything is explained and the way the episode’s are structured helps the story along and makes it seem real because time actually passes and it’s shown. The music was perfect as well. I both love how short the episodes are but I also want them to be an hour long as well.

I’m so sad it’s over but the messages from Nat, Louis, Taro and Kai were so sweet and the behind the scenes clips at the ends were a joy to see.

Now below this are just random thoughts I had while watching that I want to add because..why not! Beware there are spoilers..


The comparison between Zhe Rui and a cat is the funniest and most truthful thing I have ever seen.

Drunk Ai Di is adorable and the fact he’s a cuddly drunk is even greater. Plus his friendship with Rui is adorable. Sullen, jealous Zongyi is somehow adorable and funny and I love it.

THE SPIT TAKE IN E6!!! I’VE NEVER LAUGHED SO HARD. NOT AI DI DOING THE EXACT SAME THING THOUGH!!!!

I freaking adore Zongyi’s family

Everyone in this show is gay and I love it!!!

NOT THE FUCKING WOLF!!!! AI DI LOOKS CUTE AS HELL WHILE ZONGYI…..

I want to know who tf hit Zhong Yi over the head WWE style with a chair of all things!!

The scene (You know the scene) between Ai Di and Chen Yi was both beautiful and heartbreaking, the tear from Ai Di, the music, the way it was shot was just beautiful and heartbreaking for Ai Di.

Zongyi’s reunion with his dad and sister was tear inducing and so sweet. The acting done by the actors playing Zongyi’s dad and sister was spectacular. The grief and guilt they portrayed because Zongyi went to prison for his dad to get a new heart was so sad!!!!!

HIS FAMILY IS SO PROUD AND SUPPORTIVE OF HIM I CAN’TT!!!!!

I’m sorry but Zongyi opening a Cat bakery is just everything to me.

Chen Yi being clueless about how to chase and prove to Ai Di he likes him is hilarious and accrete to his character.

I did not expect that sad as hell scene with Chen Dong Yang and Ming Lei. That breaks my heart but it was also sweet in a really sad way.

I NEVER saw that ending plot twist at all! There will be something at the bottom about it because I can’t not post about that scene! You have been warned!




---------- You have been warned!!...


I never saw her being Zheng Teng’s sister!!! I feel bad for her, she loved her brother and just wanted revenge for his death but still!!!!!!!! UHHHHHGGG.

The engagement was so freaking cute and sweet!
