Had to drop this tedious drama
I would like to kind of say sorry for the review to GMMTV, since I love them for being so sincere and professional, and for giving me so many great titles to watch. In less than one year, I have watched over 40 Gmmtv dramas.
Wow, what a slow and boring ride this was! Even after fast-forwarding so much, I could not finish it. I watched up until episode 8.
1. Lousy plot: Nothing much happens. There was first a het drama where Mhok's ex finds a new jerky boyfriend (she clearly has a problem loving the bad guys), but Mhok wants to be the white knight protector of his ex by starting fights with the bf. This kind of het issue I did not want to see in BL. The girl was good-looking, though. (I am a bi man.)
2. Sea's acting as Day was pretty bad -- he seems to have a wide-toothed smile through many scenes (like even when he was complaining bitterly about his brother somewhere in episode 8 or 9. He has very few other expressions. Day was also an entitled brat, who did nothing much for the relationship except protect his fragile ego and complain. Day wanted to protect his car from his brother Knight's vomit while driving, and instead of blaming no-one or blaming himself, Day keeps blaming Night for years.
3. Jimmy acted very well, and he has become more good-looking than in Bad Buddy. I think he fixed his overbite and put on some muscle. Mhok, was, however, too accommodating and patient with Day -- for a hot-tempered guy who constantly got into fights, Mhok was too nice after the first couple of episodes. I read in reviews that he becomes even worse at the end, and that is why I did not finish the show. I don't know how Mhok could put up with that brat Day, but I guess it is his savior complex.
4. I liked August a lot. I like his soft looks, and he had character, apologizing promptly and profusely when he made a (well-intentioned) mistake. That drama was the last plot element until where I stopped watching.
Will no-one give me another Bad Buddy?
