A Wonderful Surprise!
I'd never heard of this show when I stumbled across it. Totally worth the watch! You have to pay attention as it is twisted and wrapped around like crazy. The music fits well, the acting is good, and the story line is so wild. A unique and engrossing series! I don't know why no one else has reviewed it, but I hope more give it a chance.Was this review helpful to you?
I Can't Believe I Finished, But...
The level of dumb is amazing. I will usually drop one that's stupid, but this one is apparently MADE to be so stupid you just have to watch it. Be aware, just because their lips aren't moving doesn't mean they're not talking. It's just badly dubbed, seemingly on purpose. It's a cute story line with what has to be intentionally campy and bad acting since I've seen other shows and know at least some of the actors are more talented that this makes them appear. And, gods help me, if they ever make a season 2, I'll watch it!Was this review helpful to you?
Seriously Underrated
Normally, I do not like any kind of slapstick comedy in my BL. Maybe I'm just too old for it. This one, however, has some over the top comedy moments, but they are enjoyable. Not sure if it's because of the acting skills or the lack of sound effects. The rating, to me, is low. With the exception of the female doctor, who is far too annoying, the acting is nice. The story line is a unique one of all I've seen. So very glad I gave this a chance!Was this review helpful to you?

Actually Not Bad
It was kind of different. One very beautiful kiss scene, especially for a Korean BL. Interesting story line with good acting. Nothing corny or cheesy, really. But it takes a left turn into the twilight zone towards the end which left me a little off balance. Still good, but pretty sure a couple of episodes could have been left out and it still end well enough.Was this review helpful to you?

A Study in Frustration
I write this based on the series in general, not just my opinion. In my opinion, if I'd known the frustration, I might have skipped it.For this being the first series for the three leads, they did very well. Nothing in the acting itself made me cringe. The story line? Someone needs to slap them for making eight episodes of "Are you kidding me?". The frustration was REAL. I have not wanted to slap a character so much since Boston for sheer WTF are you saying/doing. The kiss scenes are reasonable for a Korean series, but I'd kind of liked to see something more dramatic for at least one of them.

Tsundere Warning!
Ugh! I so dislike tsundere characters and Akira just had to go there. Repeatedly. For the vast majority of 11 freaking episodes. After the first season, I'd looked forward to a couple with maybe some difficulties, but this was painful. The story wasn't bad otherwise, until the last few episodes. They just had to toss that in for some reason. It could have ended at the birthday and been acceptable. No decent kisses in this one either. The actors did a good job with what they were given though. I really liked their portrayals, except the tsundere crap.Was this review helpful to you?

If Only
If this were more fleshed out into a full length series, I would love it!! As it is, it's cute and sweet, but it moves too quickly since there's not time to give background or have character development. And it needs at least one real kiss. The seme is hot as hell and the uke is just too cute. Good potential in the story for office or Yakuza story lines.Was this review helpful to you?

Twice and still unclear
I watched this some time back. Saw one that said 'uncut' so I watched it again. Apparently the one I originally saw was also uncut as there was no difference. I'd hoped something would explain the ending better. Happy ending, yes. Understandable ending, not so much. From what I can gather, the book does better and it's how I thought, but they didn't express. The after credits scene? No freaking clue and actually not looking for a season 2 as it might be even more confusing. Still, totally worth a rewatch as it's very well told, except that ending, and a well done series.Was this review helpful to you?

Actually Pretty Good
I don't know why there are so many low reviews. No, it's not instant resolution to anything, but it progresses well enough. The actors did good jobs, the story is rather unique, even if there is a guitar. At least there's a cello, too. Tags/Description were missing a bit since I kept wondering why the ominous music when old girl was on screen. And I wish I didn't have to figure out the apple thing for myself. An explanation would have been great! It's even got the standard last minute, man gotta pull a dumb move thing too or I would have put a 9 rating on it. Half a star gone for that BS.Was this review helpful to you?

So Cute!
Unbelievably adorable! No love triangle drama, no fighting, no stress. Just a small group of the sweetest guys finding their way with each other. I see this being a comfort watch down the road. I would love to see more BLs like this. My only drawback was the episode length. If it's that short, a short movie would be smoother to watch. It was nice though that the episodes did NOT have credits at both ends making it even shorter.Was this review helpful to you?

Not that bad
The reviews make it seem awful. While it is MOST definitely slow paced in filming and speech (I watched in on 1.5 playback), it is terribly sweet. It is by far the most innocent Thai BL I've seen. It's about finding your dream and accepting who you are. The cooking and food shots seem to be where a lot of effort was concentrated and those are beautiful. The acting is pretty good and the story is cute. The MF side couple was unnecessary though, the female altogether unneeded. It really could have ended with episode 10 and been just fine, but a few things were cute in the last episode.Was this review helpful to you?

Very Cute
Non complicated plot and some really adorable actors. Pretty low budget as I think it looked like just different angles of one room, but it was very well done for what was likely a very small amount of money. The actors portrayed the parts well, nothing overdone or cringe. The kiss scenes were very nice, something highly rare in a Korean BL and I loved it. Longer would have been nice, but as it is, it is a very good watch. All the elements are present with no extra fluff so it's all good.Was this review helpful to you?

Really Cute
A nice, fluffy watch. Very sweet. Except for wanting to kill the old bat. There is not enough forgiveness in the world. Kind of frustrated with the FL, but I guess I can understand somewhat. Nothing overly deep or complicated in this show. Liked it more than I expected to. Would have been nice to see someone get married though.Was this review helpful to you?

Quite Good for a Body Swap
I spent the last two episodes yelling at the screen. LOL! The story is interesting. I don't usually go for body swap shows since I want to watch MM, not MF. This one was good about showing the soul's body more than the actual body so it was much easier to handle. Earth and Mix are excellent in this. A spicy Mix is a total treat. I do not think I could have forgiven the issues at the end though.Was this review helpful to you?

Second Season Would Be Nice
With friends/family like these, who needs enemies. I'd love a second season so long as the majority of the "friends" aren't included or at the least mind their own business. The ending was a damned miracle. The music was good and appropriate for the scenes. The acting, for the most part, was good, with nice chemistry between the leads. I rated it low on rewatch as I wouldn't be able to stand the support characters pissing me off again.Was this review helpful to you?
