Solid Plot, Mehh Chemistry, Fish Kiss
This really just took me back to the early BL days with the fish kisses lol, but what a way to start a review.Ummm, the plot is great for sure but would have needed more than 6 episodes to flesh it out perfectly and I think they did utilise the 6 episodes well, but it wasn’t enough.
There was not much romantic build up between the characters, chemistry was lacking, and the fish kiss too lol (would have been better without it) did the actors lips even touch? I honestly thought this was behind us in big 2026.
Also, the ending was so rushed and just filled with …nothing.
Now, should you watch it? Maybe? I did, so you may too, just don’t expect too much from it.

A Heart Can Learn How To Love Again
Yeah, I know I’m late to the party, just watched this after putting it off for years.It’s a good story, that’s what I can say, it’s more than just a BL show …
Features themes like family dynamics, among others.
I don’t think there’s anything else I can say that other reviews haven’t said yet.
Watch it if you haven’t

Could Have Had a Happy Ending…
I still don't understand why this couldn't have had a happy ending... I mean, why not?Also, I wouldn't call this a “BL” show but it is a show about two men who love each other.
I don't have a lot to say about this one honestly. I don't even know how I feel about it. It just feels like the tragedy is so forced and it could have had a happy ending but okay I guess
You want to watch it? Do. You don't want to? Don’t. You're wondering if you should watch it or not? Probably.

2 Hot Men, 10 Dance: A Work of Art
What I felt while watching this movie, I can’t explain it with words, but let me try.This film is driven by music, movement, and intense emotion. And I felt every bit of it, every single bit of it.
The dancing is both sensual and powerful, not just because of the skill involved, but because of what it represents. They move through many styles; classic professional dances and then Latin dances filled with passion and intensity. And the actors nailed the performance. God, those men!!!!
At the center of this story are two men slowly falling in love. And this love is what will eventually give meaning to the dancing; it’s what turns technique into expression. We’re not just watching them dance, we feel their desire, vulnerability, and longing through every step.
By the end, the film leaves you inspired. It makes you feel like you could dance too, even if you never have before.
It’s emotional, beautifully crafted, and simply a very very good watch.
Can’t wait for the second season! 10/10 for this one!

It’s Great Until You Decide to Rewatch It…
Loved this show when I first watched it (now I wonder how…)Rewatched it a couple of days ago and I just shouldn’t have. It has quickly shifted from a show I love to a show I used to love.
Why?
The romance/chemistry between the ML and FL is actually LACKING in many ways. They have no chemistry and a rewatch will show you that.
The second ML and FL were quite good BUT the romance could use more work as well.
I honestly don’t know how I feel about this after rewatching, but I’ll say it’s a show you should only watch ONCE!

We Deserve a Second Season…
It was a good watch but should have been longer.I like the story, the angst, the acting, the chemistry, but not the ending.
The ending is just unacceptable. We deserve at least an episode or two to see their lovely happy ending.
Anyways, taking what we can get, but if you're wondering if you should give this one a chance, you should.

Talk About a Good Kdrama…
This was definitely a very good watch.Now, it’s not a show for everyone but it is a great show.
This Kdrama touches on some really heavy themes and it’s as intense as it gets, but all in a very very good way.
I have so many good things to say about it, but I’ll just tell you to watch it if you haven’t yet.

Unlabelled Asexuals, Allosexuals and the Tragic Dynamic of Allo-Ace Relationships
By the way, the headline is the title of a literary analysis piece that I wrote about this beautiful work of art titled - When It Rains It Pours.I have so much to say about this and will come back to edit this review.
For now, let me just say this BL show is more than just a BL show.
I watched it and the story stayed with me for days …

It’s Actually Not Even That Bad…
I mean I have watched worse BLs and personally I did not hate this one.It’s just one of those lighthearted JBLs to watch “on a rainy day” (see what I did there? 😉)
Anywayssss, about the story? It’s nothing too intense but slightly intense? I feel like the show would have been better with a simple and ordinary storyline. But it seems the writer wanted the story to be “deep and touching” but that didn’t really happen so the plot kinda fell in between?
None of what I’ve said makes sense to you??? Okay! Okay! Watch it and you’ll see what I mean…

A Breeze of Not-a-Bad-Watch…
Okay, I actually finished this one many months ago but yeah just deciding to leave a review today.Honestly, it was a good watch and I liked the MC and ML’s chemistry.
Like I said it’s been a while and I can’t remember much of what happened in this BL show, but I know it was not even a bad watch at all.
I mean the storyline is nothing extraordinary, but it was worth watching.

Rock-hearted Possessive ML Falls in Love Deeply
I have only good things to say about this show so far. It’s for sure one of the best KBLs we’ve had this year and I’m so grateful for that.Now to the review, you know I always keep it simple to avoid spoilers, but this series tells the story of a possessive but warm-hearted man who falls in love with his soft, honest and easy-going flatmate…
But wait, there’s more to the story, eager to find out?? Then, you should watch it!

IDK… I Expected Something More
The story of this BL show in itself is strong but the execution is very weak.The show started strong, intriguing too and then as it progressed everything went downhills. I don’t even understand what’s happening or what the story aims to achieve anymore, that’s how confusing it got.
One big problem here would be the run time for each episode. There’s so much to unpack, so little time to make the plot this complicated and confusing.
It’s so weird i don’t know what to say but honestly don’t waste your time with this one, just watch something else.
You’re welcome.

Slowburn, Intense Chemistry and Story That Keeps You at the Edge of Your Seat
Okay listen, I have nothing but good things to say about this BL!As someone who’s a big fan of Lakorns, this right here? ANOTHER AMAZING LAKORN from one31. They just don’t miss!
And yes, I’ll say it proudly… I like generic tropes. If you watch enough Lakorns, you already know how these stories usually go. It’s predictable, it’s dramatic, it’s emotional, and honestly? That’s exactly why I love it. This “cliché” setup? I’ll eat it up every single time. I never get tired of it.
Also, if you’re like me and you prefer seeing actual feelings develop — like slow-burn, real chemistry — and not just random NC scenes thrown in every episode… this one’s for you. The pacing is chef’s kiss; it builds so naturally, and every episode just makes you want to watch the next.
I binged all eight episodes in one sitting (no regrets) and I’m saving the last four to binge together again. So if you’re not watching yet, I’ll assume you’re just letting it marinate too, so you can watch it all at once like me…
Honestly, it’s such a beautiful story; to say i’m obsessed would be an understatement cos I AM OBSESSED.
Definitely on my Best BLs of 2025 list already!

A Must-Watch for all Chinese BL Fans!!!
I can't get over this one!!!See, I knew right after watching the first episode that I had to let it marinate before watching! And five episodes out, I went back to it and wish I had been patient enough to wait for all nine episodes.
It is a good watch!
Don't even hesitate, get into it! And please don't skip after the first two episodes because let me tell you something, episode three is where it starts to hook you in!
I have so much to say about this show but I'll save it! You should watch it and see for yourself.
I'll just say one thing though - THE DETECTIVE AND THE INVESTIGATOR???!!! EXCUSE MEEE!!! Side romance that we didn't know we needed.
I haven't read the story, so I'm new to the whole thing but will definitely be reading it later.
Why are you still reading? Start the show already!!!!

Not a Fan of Horror Shows And…
This one is no different.Yeah, that’s it. Personally, I’ve never been a fan of horror shows but I decided to watch this one cos it’s BL (duhh) and I liked the ML in Paradise of Thorns.
Yeah, I still like his acting here and it’s the reason I’ve watched all released episodes so far. Keng is an amazing actor.
Now about this BL show? Idk man. It’s a weird one is all I can say. Aside the fact that it’s horror (a genre I don’t like) it has nothing else to make up for being a genre that’s a hard-watch for me.
The romance aspect? It’s just so-so. I liked the second leads romantic interactions (not so much) but it’s a good reason to give this a try if you want to.
I’m dropping this show but I don’t regret watching it and won’t ask for my time back lol.
However, it is just NOT my type of story AT ALL.
I do not like the plot, the reincarnation trope too has never been my favorite, also the romance is kinda like a by the way and the horror aspect takes the forefront.
You might like it, who knows? Watch to find out, I guess…
