I think people are being too hard on the actor Ohm, I think it makes sense his initial expression in my country…
Ohm might not be the Meryl Streep of BL dramas, but who am I to judge? After all, acting chops are subjective, and I'm no expert. My hunch? He's typecast and could use a bit more practice.
I've seen him in "Until We Meet Again", "Oh! My Sunshine Night", and "609 Bedtime Story". To be honest, I couldn't even finish the last two. Except for "609 Bedtime Story", where he's a ladies' man, his roles are usually heavy, burdened characters. He's got this constant look – furrowed brows, lips sealed, as if carrying the world's weight. Even in "609 Bedtime Story", his performance didn't quite catch my eye. In some scenes, it even made me cringe a bit.
But, I wouldn't say he's a bad actor. Sometimes the agency, production team, or the director might be the ones dropping the ball.
That little Day and big Mhok scene reminded me of the acquarium scene from Romeo + Juliet (1996) in which Romeo…
Thanks for mentioning the 1996 version of "Romeo and Juliet" – yeah, I totally remember Leonardo DiCaprio and Claire Danes in those roles. So, there's this awesome scene where Romeo, played by DiCaprio, runs into this huge, flashy fish tank. He's completely drawn in by these funky, colorful fish swimming around. And then, out of the blue, he spots Juliet, played by Danes, on the other side. They kick off this cute, flirty mirror game through the glass. It's like they're super close yet still separated by the tank. They even share this adorable, almost-kiss against the glass. It's a really fresh and quirky spin on how they first meet, making the whole moment super memorable.
Before the pandemic hit, I had the absolute delight of meeting OffGun not once, but twice in the same year—talk about lucky! Off, ever the sweetheart, greeted me with such warmth, and yes, he actually recognized me! Cue internal screaming! Here I am, still cheering on OffGun from afar, flag in hand and fangirl heart fully engaged! 🚩💖
There are scenes that are meant to be steamy and suggestive, but they’re about as subtle as a neon sign in a monastery. Seriously, a touch of mystery, a bit less reveal, might have left more to the imagination than just parading around in undies without any… let’s say, ‘visible enthusiasm.’ It’s like they missed the memo on the art of seduction: sometimes, it’s what you don’t show that really gets the audience’s pulse racing!
Watching 'Bake Me' made me think Torta Caprese was some sort of culinary Mount Everest, but turns out it's more like a walk in the park! I mean, who knew something that sounds so fancy could be so doable? The show's got us thinking you need a secret handshake or a magic wand to whip up these treats. Spoiler alert: you don't! Just a bowl, some enthusiasm, and maybe a little love for chocolate. So, let's not get too dramatic, it's just cake!
Wow! The latest episode really hit the nail on the head with its take on the universal issue of aging. Talk about realism served with a side of humor – not a snooze fest at all! I’m with Kenji on this; there’s something about Shiro with glasses that just works. And yes, a good pair of presbyopia glasses does cost a pretty penny, just ask my parents! The moment in the supermarket when Shiro tells Kenji, ‘You find everything I do charming! Others might have a more accurate opinion,’ had me chuckling.
But the real show-stealer? Wataru’s enormous bouquet! Talk about rubbing salt in Shiro’s ‘sensitive’ wounds – that was the highlight (and the laugh of the episode) for me!
Oh, episodes 13 and 14, where do I even start? What was that even about? A tragic tale of a deceased soccer player and his squad’s friendship? Talk about a vague theme! And Jay's manslaughter storyline? I mean, really? How did Pun even die? He was a soccer football player with no murder weapons in sight. What happened? Did he get strangled by an invisible force?
And episode 14, a jumbled mess of endless flashbacks. It was like watching the same scene on repeat, but with less intrigue each time. As for the acting, let's just say it was... unforgettable, and not in a good way. The scene where Pun reunites as a ghost with everyone? It felt like a high school play, but with less conviction. Seriously, who's writing this stuff?
Can we talk about Peach’s smile for a second? When he flashes those pearly whites, it’s like the sun decided to give us a personal ‘hello.’ Talk about a charm offensive!
And then there’s the Great Sneeze Saga – a plot twist that left me scratching my head. Initially, I thought it was that classic Asian drama trope where someone sneezes when they’re being talked about. Peach and Atom chat about Shin, and voilà – a sneeze! Classic, right? But then comes the phone call scene, and I’m thinking, ‘Ah, the old post-dunking cold routine, another BL classic!’ Only to find out it’s a nut allergy? And days later? I mean, since when did allergies decide to hit the snooze button? I’m no doctor, but that’s one peculiar reaction time!
Although I don’t understand a single word, I’m inexplicably moved - it must be true love 😭
Because I haven’t downloaded the TikTok app, when I clicked into the web version, the English subtitles were blocked by some text! Anyway, thank you. I really like this edited version.

Dame? Boku wa kokeidesu yo. Damedesu ka? Dekidenai? Soto dakeja? Demo,Soto dakeja!
No? I am solid. Is it no good? Can’t do it? Just the outside? But, just the outside then!
