It's a very short movie which is fine as it doesn't have much to tell, the ML was spectacular, his performance was amazing and I wish I could see more of it.
The only thing I wish they showed more was the development of the relationship between the leads, or at least show some sweet moments between them, they literally had 2 scenes before we jump into the ML, who is so against love, opening up to the FL.
Despite everything, it was great and easy watch ~~

Am I romantic? Nope! Do I believe in love? Also nope! But this was so sweet and lovely and simply makes me want to believe in true love and that it exists.
The two leads were great, I don't know who they are but they were sweet.
It's very short so I can't really say anything without spoiling it, but you will finish it feeling warm inside despite being relatively sad, it still so sweet ~~

What in the Wattpad is this ~~
Chinese vertical dramas are 3 categories IMHO, one has story and good acting, one is no story and no acting, one is mediocre, highly theatrical guilty pleasure Wattpad stories with accepted acting.This one belongs to the last category.
It's a cliché bad boy who is obsessed with good girl who done basically nothing aside from showing the slightest bit of kindness ever possible for humans, who is forceful but respect the FL, would break anyone's hand if it ever dare to even think about touching what's his, but at the same time has a moral code to not kill anyone, torture is fine, power harassment is also good, but killing is a no no *Insert Drake meme*
Is it bad?, nope not really it's good, cliché and theatrical yes, but that's what most of those stories are made off, extreme power and obsession with unreasonable behaviour and a little bit of misogyny, also is that Korean I keep seeing on the screen whenever there is a phonecall? What is 소사 and 후은 ?? lol
But hey! This is fiction and we all know better than to judge a vertical drama because of it's story.

A Blind Girl Mistook Her Husband for a Rough Man

It's weird to ask for a shorter vertical drama since they are already meant to be short and light but I would prefer if they just cut the whole office part and stopped at when everything is solved and all is good.
If they wanted to add some more screen time, maybe they should have focused more on the rivals part, and them being jealous of other people, add some romance to it.
But it's more like they wanted to add side stories to it when it's not really needed which made the overall drama redundant and boring
I've seen much better vertical dramas with better chemistry and story, so I would not recommend this one ~

All because that damn kiss
I genuinely enjoyed this show, not because it's actually great or that it's in any way unique.İt's the most cliché series ever, full of overused moments that been done to death in many dramas before.
But it's fits my mood, and it's very bing-able.
Story: not the best, stereotypical and repeated many times, only elevated by the performance and the fast pace, I didn't find it boring, at least untill ep11 or 12 where it deviated a little from it's original path.
This is a romcom and it gave us that, the last couple of episodes, after everything is good with the leads and they reached their happy end, the writer suddenly remembered that there were some bad guys that needed to be stopped and a conspiracy that needed to be exposed, also we still have some very very original tropes to add to the mix like, breaking up, accident, memory loss, bad character goes good, also a sudden change of a heart to give the second couple their happy end ...
So Story-wise, not the best, cliché but consistent till the last 2 episodes, then another types of cliché but not terrible.
Cast and characters:
Now I have two things to say here about the actors and about their performance as their own character, because everyone was good but Ki Yong, my man shines here like no one else, I mainly watched for Eun Jin because I'm a huge fan but Ki Yong stole the whole show, and I'm talking about his performance not the character himself, he showed a wide range of emotions he was spectacular, he gave us an expression for each feeling and I genuinely enjoyed him as a dorky, revengeful in a funny way and seriously immature adult.
Of course the rest of the cast were amazing, but as I said Ki Yong stole the show İMO.
Characters: generally I didn't expect any depth in the characters but I found that Jo Hyeok was so complicated and layered character, surprisingly so, also Da rim isn't the original damsel in distress, but she also isn't the modern strong independent lady that doesn't need a man to rescue her, I don't know how they managed to add the Cinderella idea but at the same time makes here as mature and dependable as she actually is, so I loved the two leads, but hated SFL, she was soo pushy and annoying, I felt SML deserves better, she is a very stressful person, I don't think anyone like her would fit someone as mature and kind as SeonU, even if she gets along with Jun, like she is the same mental age that's probably why they gets along so SeonU is very suitable for her, he is her best choice but she will only drains him out of energy and he need someone much better.
I don't dive deep in characters and stories of the romcoms I watch especially the ones full of cliché and overused ideas, but this deserves to be talked about ~~

Cute
This reminds me of kieta hatsukoi, though I loved Aoki and Ida more, but the cast here are so lovely.The story is a very cute, I think the last two episodes were a little redundant but still enjoyable.
Watarai has very beautiful and expressive pair of eyes. I also loved the 4 handsome boys they were so funny, I loved the episode where Naoya brother appears he is a dorky but somehow mature character.
There is nothing much to say about this drama tbh, it's a short cute school BL, story is very light and the cast were adorable ~~

It shows too much with no dialogue at all, the idea of showing your scars to the person you love and him accepting everything in you even your scars and pain is so frightening yet so beautiful.
I think I would want to see a longer version of this but at the same time I think this was very short and perfect that I wouldn't want more filler and unnecessary scenes.
As I said I don't know what to say, I'd still recommend it, it's nicely done.

I've always been intrigued by the idea of having sex without kissing, and how some think of kisses as a very important and intimate thing full of emotions and feelings, in contrast to others that doesn't think much of it.
And this was done very well too, the chemistry was good and the two guys acted out their roles well
Short, lovely and very well made ~~

Beautifully painful
A tale of confusion and pain, I loved how this movie is made, the whole time it grabbed my attention and it was beautifully made.Acting from the two guys was nice, I felt a bit vague but still understandable, I don't fully get the end, it felt like it ended abruptly.
I was confused about if the intimate moments were real or not, because of so, I'll hate Tao Yang do much, experimenting through another person's emotions is just bad.
I just wish Lai Fan would move on a d have his happy ending ~~

It's a tale of a billion love story. Real and frustrating.
Now normally a person would take the confused guy side, the evil bad wolf of a partner he had just moved on and didn't give him an explanation, but if we think about it, it has many layers that we can't ignore.
What if the confused guy was the problem, I don't think it necessarily means he was "good" and the other guy is bad for moving on.
But since nothing is showed, we can only feel sorry for the guy and that's it.

But this was amazing, probably my favourite adaptation.
First of all there are a few different things that wasn't in the kmovie, which was my reference when I started this show.
1- Momoko character isn't in the original story, I believe they added her in this drama only as I don't remember seeing her in the Thai version as well.
2- Ono isn't gay, while this isn't a BL, Ono's sexual orientation is a huge deal in the original source, here he is just a panicking man who is completely intimidated by women which is as cute, and I loved that they kept his persona even when they dropped this part.
3- here it's all about Eiji, in the source it's about the owner and his struggles to keeping cake shop working, but here Eiji is the main focus.
While these differences are significant IMO, they didn't change how amazing the show is, so it's different but still as great.
I loved that this show included a slice of life genre but also kept the fun and entertaining vibes, I LOVED the last ep, also the ep where they ignored the owner was hilarious too, I think the 9th ep.
Generally I have nothing but praises for everyone.
The subtle romance vibes are also nice, comedy is the best, highly recommended show ~~

They are always hard to rate because you won't find any consistent story, everything is a mess.
For this one the idea of obsession is done well, the ML is really messed up in the head and he is really really weak for the FL, yet he is pushy and slightly violent and forceful, but in a respectful way, like forced sex with permission xD
I mean, I knew this was about obsession and I kinda enjoyed it, do I like these things in general? Nope! Do I fantasies about this type of obsession? Absolutely NOPE ! Never. however! I enjoy when the weaker person is the one in control! Like he can do whatever he wants, like kidnap her or whatever, bit instead he hurts himself because he can't do that to her, that's the power I like and the FL has without even noticing, and she will make use of it to the max once she puts her mindset on that.
Overall enjoyable, heavy on the flirty scenes, but still good ~

That was so slow, barely any type of conversation between cast, and if existed it's probably random stuff, I could sense some emotions here and there but it all feels so meh!
I probably don't fit the category of the targeted audience here because I don't think I like it ...
I won't recommend it either tbh, I've seen my fair share of slow healing BLs and dramas in general but this failed to keep my attention to it so, it's a big no from me.
However, I can understand if some people find it appealing, I guess it's just not for everyone, so me not liking it isn't because it's badly done, but because to me there was no story worth watching, and acting IMO isn't the best so there is nothing worth suggesting it for~

When I first watched it I was slightly confused about the nature of their relationship, are they together but hiding, are they together and showing it, are they just too closely connected friends.
The way the ML was suffering from his one sided love and jealousy at first, on the other hand the intimate and very touchy tachibana... It was confusing a bit I wish they had shown what kind of relationship they actually had.
Later it was clear to us what type of relationship they had but still i didn't like that part~
Overall nice and light jealousy story.

Even better sequel
Not exactly a sequel, it's an ad but this is a sequel to the story.It also gives us a closure so if you watched the first part you must watch this one because it gives you the HE, instead of leaving everything as it is in the first part.
Now this has more story to it than the first, I believe it's even sweeter, the first was funnier but both are extremely cute, I LOVE Singto and Krist, and their Pickering is just a pleasure to watch.
The sudden product ad between the scenes cracks me up every time because although I know it's an advertisement short movie, I don't expect the scene and their performance is just too adorable!!
I don't know, whatever!! I just love them so much 😂😂 Krist is super cute here and Singto too ... Can I eat them? They are so adorable 🥰
Highly recommended of course.
