Not bad, not good - just kinda there

Knock Knock Boys kind of cringe at times, but if you’re in the mood for something goofy, it’s worth a shot. It’s not terrible, but it’s not super memorable either.

What I did like was the strong friendship between the four guys, total strangers at first, but they built a genuine bond.

Even though it’s tagged as a comedy, I felt like something was missing. It didn’t really make me laugh much, and I wasn’t completely satisfied by the end. I think part of that is because the chemistry between Latte and Mon just wasn’t there, it felt a bit flat.

Why this BL series just didn't hit the mark for me

Even though this series didn’t seem all that entertaining at first, I still gave it a shot because there were so many good comments in IQIYI app and I’m not the type to judge a show based on low ratings. But honestly? Yeah, it kind of does deserve that 7 rating, haha.

I found it pretty boring overall, and Kuea’s character really got on my nerves. He was just so immature and full of lies. I couldn’t understand why he was living a double life, was it just to impress Lian? If so, big nope from me. I didn’t like all the pretending, especially when he was acting like some perfect “good boy” around Lian.

What’s frustrating is that his real self is actually super cool: he loves music, plays the drums, great singer, rides a motorbike, and has awesome fashion sense. I would’ve loved that version of him way more.

And it’s not just Kuea, Lian also lied. Like, why would you pretend you don’t love someone you’ve basically loved since childhood? That part made zero sense to me, and they never even explained it! Therefore, the characters were poorly written (the deception was consistent from start to finish).

I honestly almost dropped the series, but I pushed through just to finish it. Safe to say, I didn’t even bother watching season 2. Felt like it would’ve just been a waste of time.

Anyway, actors are great with undeniable chemistry so I gave it 6/10.

A COMPLEX WATCH

4Minutes is definitely not your typical BL series. If you're expecting something light and easy to watch, this isn't it. I’ll be honest, I found it a bit confusing at first. Some viewers even suggested starting from episode 3 to understand it better. But I dove in from the beginning and decided to just go with the flow.

Once you settle into its rhythm, though, it’s pretty intriguing, and you start to see why it gets such high ratings. It’s not just a story you watch, it's one you have to think through. You’ll find yourself analyzing each scene, trying to figure out what’s real and what’s just in Great’s head.

Yes, some scenes repeat, but that’s actually part of the whole experience. It’s not lazy storytelling, it’s deliberate. The repetition reflects Great’s chaotic, looping thoughts, especially since the biggest twist is that everything we're watching are just his mental WHAT IFS during a near-death experience. Wild, right?

The series tackles some heavy stuff, such as death, grief, and loss. A lot of people were dead in this series and it’s not always easy to watch. The emotional weight is real and adds to the intensity of the whole thing.

Now… about the NC scenes. Let’s just say, if you’re not comfortable with very intimate scenes, you might be in for a shock. The bed scenes are some of the most explicit I’ve seen in a BL series. It’s not just steamy, it’s intense. If you’re conservative or not a fan of NC content, you might write this off as borderline porn (I laughed, but it’s kinda true). But to be fair, the intimacy also plays into the mental and emotional state of the characters, so it’s not just there for show.

Overall, 4Minutes is bold, experimental, and not for everyone, but if you’re up for a deeper, psychological ride that’s not afraid to push limits, it’s absolutely worth the watch.

It is great but relationship between leads felt forced

This series is so good and I am hooked from the first episode. If you can't accept the fact that the protagonist is the real killer, then don't watch it. I have mixed feelings about this series. I didn't want Dr. Kan to be a murderer, but it's the story how it goes. He performs euthanasia at the patient's and family's request, but I still think it's wrong because euthanasia isn't legalized in Thailand. I'm not against euthanasia if it's done with patient and family consent and is legalized in the country.

Everyone is suspicious especially Dr. Kan and the nurse. It is so intriguing and thrilling that I often paused it, lol! 😂

I don't want to label Dr. Kan as purely good or evil; he's somewhere in between, and I understand his reasons. However, if euthanasia isn't legal in a country, I believe doctors shouldn't have the right to do it. The ending was sad, but Dr. Kan should face consequences for his actions.

What I dislike about this series is the relationship between Dr. Kan and Captain Tew, it feels forced to me.

However, I loved the cinematography and top-notch acting, especially the guy who plays Boss, his emotional portrayal was convincing. Dr. Kan's physical appearance (height, face, body skin) is just perfection lol. One thing that bothered me was Captain Tew's actions, like installing GPS on Dr. Kan's car, I didn't like that.

Although Dr. Kan was handcuffed by Captain Tew in the final scene, the ending leaves many questions unanswered. Will he be prosecuted, face the death penalty, or just revoke the license? Because in Thailand euthanasia is not legal neither it is not prohibited so we don't know what will be the punishment of Dr. Kan. For me this series is an open ending.

If you are a medical professional, you'll appreciate the hospital setting and thrilling plot of this drama. The medical jargon, including potassium chloride and euthanasia, is accurately portrayed. As a nurse, I was familiar with the dangers of potassium chloride and the complexities of euthanasia. I believe euthanasia can be justified with patient and family consent, and this series thoughtfully explores this nuanced topic.

Overall, this series is a well-crafted thriller worth watching.

Give it a try

I'm surprised by the low ratings for this series because I thoroughly enjoyed every episode! As a fan of Khaotong, one of my favorite Thai BL actors, I gave it a shot despite the low ratings. The trailer caught my attention, and I'm glad I didn't judge it based on ratings alone.

The series is funny, entertaining, and Khaotong shines in it. I appreciate how Ton's character evolves from having homophobic tendencies to embracing his true self. It's understandable, given his father's pressure and societal expectations. A scene where he watches 'Sotus' and smiles hinted to me that he's not inherently homophobic, but rather struggling to accept himself due to family pressures.

If you're skeptical, I recommend watching the first few episodes, you might be pleasantly surprised. Don't let low ratings deter you from giving this series a chance.

A Morally Grey Relationship

I watched this series because I was curious about Sorn’s character and whether he'd actually grow or change.

My Stubborn isn’t your typical fluffy BL. It’s a tough watch. Sorn acts like a jealous, possessive boyfriend toward Jun, yet reminds him they’re just sex buddies and there are no feelings involved. And Jun? He just lets it happen. They're both toxic. It was frustrating to watch at times.

Sorn’s the prideful type he didn’t want to admit he liked Jun, even though it was obvious. Their relationship started out as sex buddies and slowly turned into something more. Honestly, I found that part pretty realistic. Stuff like that really happens.

Sorn’s character is definitely a walking red flag, he seriously got on my nerves. He keeps calling Jun a kid when Jun is clearly a grown man. That said, the actor who played Sorn killed it. And Jun’s actor nailed the role too stubborn, kind of clueless at times. But when Jun finally stood up for himself and disappeared, it was so satisfying. I actually cheered seeing Sorn all desperate and running after him.

Do I think Sorn loved Jun? Yes. But he was a coward about it. Even after admitting his feelings, the way he treated Jun didn’t change much. Their chemistry was okay, not mind-blowing, but it worked. Sorn is a flawed character, and that actually added a bit of realism to the story, because there are people like him in real life.

My Stubborn isn’t a light or feel-good series. It's toxic, messy, and frustrating. I've seen others complain about Sorn's character and I get it. But again, it’s realistic. If you can't handle flawed characters or morally grey love interests, maybe skip this one.

SIDE COUPLE SAVED THE SHOW

Honestly, I don’t get why Moonlight Chicken has such high ratings. I didn’t really enjoy it, it felt slow, and I even got sleepy watching it. I ended up skipping a few scenes just to get through it.

The chemistry between the main couple didn’t land for me. I usually love EarthMix (especially in A Tale of Thousand Stars), but this one just didn’t hit the mark. Their scenes felt kind of dull and lacking that emotional spark.

The series itself was pretty flat and predictable. Nothing really stood out for me. The only part I found interesting was the side couple’s story, they had more chemistry and depth than the leads. That’s honestly what kept me watching. Other than that, it didn’t do much for me.

IT'S ALL WORTH THE HYPE ❤️

This series is stuning and well-crafted! I'm blown away by Smartboom performances. Smart's acting is consistent and impressive, showcasing his growth from an innocent newcomer to a confident star. Boom being cute and pretty at the same time stole the show for me.

Their on-screen chemistry is undeniable, and the intimate scenes feels so natural and authentic. It's clear they were comfortable with each other, which made their performances even more convincing. I'm glad that Smartboom were given a chance to play in this series as a main couple because for me I find them underrated especially Smart who's always just given a guess or supporting roles in the past.

What drew me to this series is its realistic portrayal of actors' lives, struggles, and issues. It's fascinating to see behind-the-scenes glimpses of their lifestyle. This series lives up to the hype, it's definitely worth watching.

I WANTED TO LOVE HAPPENSTANCE BUT...

Happenstance definitely had an interesting concept. It’s an original story, and I really wanted to like it, but after trying to get through six episodes, I just couldn’t stay invested and ended up dropping it. Which sucks, because the plot had so much potential: a guy from 2020 and another from 1974 connect through letters and a mirror. Time travel isn’t new in shows, but Happenstance brings a unique twist with its mix of BL, political themes, and even the COVID-19 era. That alone sets it apart from other time travel series.

But unfortunately, it falls flat in execution. The acting felt pretty weak, there was zero chemistry between the leads, and the audio quality was honestly distracting. It’s hard to get emotionally invested when the characters don’t feel believable.

On the bright side, the cinematography was really well done. The old house they used for filming was beautiful and added a lot of charm. But again, some scenes had rough audio, which took away from the overall experience.

I get that the main actors are rookies, but their performances just didn’t land for me, they definitely need more training. On the flip side, Rosanna Roces (who played the mom) was way more convincing, which isn’t surprising since she’s a seasoned actress.

Also, I didn’t really feel any real connection or spark between the leads. Their relationship didn’t pull me in. And the plot’s focus on a side character, Luis, made things feel even more disjointed and off-track.

I Dove In with Low Expectations but I Was Wrong

I haven’t seen the Japanese version of My Love Mix-Up, so I can’t compare the two—but this review is purely for the Thai adaptation. And honestly? I loved it. The concept is fresh for a BL series, and the plot twist? Totally unexpected. Just when you think that’s the twist, but there’s more. I was hooked from episode one. It’s lighthearted, super cute, and the whole “mix-up” makes the story even more fun. I had such a good laugh watching it.

The four characters are all undeniably charming. Gemini and Fourth, as always, have off-the-charts chemistry. I was living for their stares and glances—it gave me such a teenage feels.

Normally, I’d write a quick rundown of the plot, but I won’t this time because I don’t want to spoil anything. There’s a twist that isn’t even mentioned in the synopsis, so I’d rather you experience it yourself.

Let’s talk characters:

Atom, played by Fourth is funny, charming, childish, and a little clumsy. He sometimes gets low grades, so his friends—especially Kongthap—are always there to help.

Kongthap, played by Gemini, starts off a bit distant. He’s mature and serious—not exactly cold, but a little clueless when it comes to love. Still, he’s open-minded and willing to get to know Atom at his own pace. Eventually, he turns into this total green flag who always puts Atom first.

As for the second couple, Mudmee and Half, their chemistry is great too. But I wasn’t a big fan of how Half’s character was written—it kind of slowed down the pacing and made their arc feel a bit slow-burn.

Some people have been complaining about all the ads in the series. Sure, they’re noticeable, but it didn’t really bother me. GMMTV clearly needed sponsorship, and honestly, it didn’t take away from the story for me.

Before anyone says I’m just biased—no, I’m not a hardcore GeminiFourth fan. I like them just fine, but what really matters to me is the chemistry, acting, and storyline. And in this case, they all worked.

Overall, the series wasn’t boring or dragging at all—just a little slow with the second couple. If you’re looking for something light, fluffy, and genuinely fun, I totally recommend this.

A Zombie With A Heart

I accidentally stumbled upon this series on Viu with a Tagalog dub, and my curiosity got the best of me. The zombie here is surprisingly cute, charming, and innocent. Even though he dislikes humans, he can’t help but be kind-hearted by nature. No matter how hungry he gets or how much he wants to eat people (or pets), he always stops himself.

Instead of hurting anyone, he learns how to live like a human and just go with the flow, taking whatever life throws at him. It’s not your typical scary zombie story—it’s actually a mix of comedy, lighthearted moments, and quirky twists. There are so many little events and subplots that keep things interesting. Watching it in Tagalog made it even funnier.

At first, I found the female lead kind of annoying, but I realized that’s just how her character was written. Eventually, she grew on me. Kim and Gong Sun’s relationship starts off purely as business, but over time, they get closer and form this unique friendship—or maybe something platonic-but-special. I have a feeling Gong Sun likes Kim, but realistically, they can’t be together. They're always bickering, but they still have each other's backs.

The whole cast did a great job, especially the two nosy detective neighbors—they were absolutely hilarious. The visuals and production quality are top-notch, and the soundtrack is solid. The actor playing Detective Kim was perfect for the role—I honestly can’t imagine anyone else pulling it off. Without him, I don’t think the series would be as highly rated as it is.
The only thing I noticed is that it felt like the series ended abruptly, almost like it was cut short. Maybe there’s going to be a Season 2?

Speedy Cars, Speedy Drama and Many Couples

Honestly, I didn't think Pit Babe needed a second season. I was already satisfied with how Season 1 ended, even though Way’s death left a sting. But the moment they announced Season 2 and dropped the trailer — I was hyped. And as expected, it didn’t disappoint. Season 2 is just as intense as the first. This series really knows how to keep things entertaining—with solid casting and a gripping storyline.

The pacing felt a bit fast, but I actually prefer that over those super slow-burn dramas. One thing though, there were a lot of couples—so if you're into simpler, more focused plots, this might feel a bit chaotic for you.

Babe & Charlie

I saw a few clips of Babe with Willy and honestly thought something was going on between them. 😂 But Babe and Charlie's chemistry is still as strong as ever. I couldn’t help but giggle every time they threw those cheesy, flirty lines at each other. And as much as I cringe at them calling each other “mama” and “papa,” I have to admit—it’s kind of adorable.

---

Sonic & North

I was really hoping these two would end up together in season 1—and boom, by season 2, the writers gave it to us. I just love their dynamic—their friendship, their chemistry, everything.

---

Jeff & Alan

They went through some rough patches and miscommunication, but thankfully they managed to work things out in the end. Love them.

---

Chris and Pete

I don’t really have much to say about them. Their chemistry just felt a bit off to me—not sure what exactly was missing, but something didn’t click.

---

Kenta and Kim

They developed feelings for each other, but Kim had to return to Korea. Not every love story ends with a happily ever after, and that’s okay.

---

Special shoutout to Milk (Willy)!

He seems pretty new to acting, but he nailed his role. And honestly, the whole cast did a great job.

---

Overall, Pit Babe is a fast‑paced romance set in the high‑stakes world of racing, with fantasy‑tinged power dynamics and a sizzling BL core. It stands out for its bold aesthetic, chemistry between Babe and Charlie, and its attempt to fuse genre elements into an emotionally driven drama. Thank you so much, CHANGE2561 for producing a wonderful series.

Realistic, Nostalgic And Beautiful

My Only 12% is such a beautiful series. Everything about it: from the casting and acting to the direction, cinematography, and OST, it's just chef’s kiss. I honestly can’t believe I ignored this for so long, thinking this was just another typical high school BL full of clichés. But it’s so much more than that.

The story is actually set in the mid-2000s, maybe around 2006 to 2008 since Cake uses an old desktop and they both have flip phones. That little detail made it feel really nostalgic. It took me back to a simpler time, before smartphones and social media took over.

I absolutely loved Cake and Eiw’s friendship. It’s funny, wholesome, and so relatable. They’re always teasing and messing with each other like real teenagers. Cake’s goofy and playful personality brings a lot of charm to the story, while Eiw’s shy, introverted side balances it out perfectly.

Despite their differences, their bond runs deep, and that’s what makes their relationship feel so real. Also, props to the casting, the actors actually look like teens, which adds to the authenticity.

That said, falling in love with your best friend is already confusing, but it gets even more complicated when you're the same sex. One moment you're laughing like usual, then suddenly you're overthinking whether a simple touch meant something more. You don’t want to mess up the friendship, but pretending you don’t feel anything is even harder. It’s love mixed with fear, hope, and a whole lot of silence. That’s exactly what Eiw is going through in this series. I really appreciate how the show explores this kind of story, because it’s something that actually happens in real life.

As the series progresses, we see them grow from teens into young adults. I really appreciated how naturally the story developed, it felt grounded and true to life. Even after going their separate ways for 4 years, their friendship didn’t fade.

If anything, the distance helped them grow individually and made their connection even stronger. And when Cake finally realizes his feelings for Eiw? So satisfying. 🥰

I’m usually not into friends-to-lovers plots, but this one hit different. There’s just something incredibly sweet about watching two people slowly realize their feelings through everyday moments: jokes, support, shared experiences. It’s not forced or rushed. It’s the kind of story that makes you believe that sometimes, the person meant for you has been right in front of you all along. And that’s exactly what this series captures. My Only 12% isn’t just a romance. It’s also a touching story about family, friendship, and growing up. I’m so glad I finally gave it a chance.

Why Thamepo Feels So Real

Thamepo had me hooked right from the start. I really liked how they showed Po’s real-life struggles, especially how hard it was for him to find a job. It felt super realistic, and I think a lot of people can relate to that.

Eventually, Po becomes a videographer for a boy band called MARS, and that’s where he meets Thame, the group’s leader. There’s definitely some tension between them at first, which made things even more interesting.

WillEast (Thame and Po) have undeniable chemistry. Their acting is on point especially for actors who don’t get as much attention as they deserve. They’re great at expressing emotions, even through just subtle looks or actions.

For me, Thamepo stands out as a more realistic take on BL set in the idol industry. Thame might seem cold at first, but as the story goes on, you realize he’s actually a major green flag.

Jun’s character is kind of confusing, but in a good way—it adds some extra spice to the plot. The cinematography is also really well done, and I love how the relationship between Thame and Po slowly builds over time.

Overall, I found Thamepo touching, heartwarming, and well-written. It’s definitely worth watching.
