The most unique BL I've ever watched.
When i 1st started the drama i was like okay just another childhood sweethearts who broke apart after one fell for another kinda BL. I was wrong. It just nothing close to JUST ANOTHER.Let's start with the casting. This is probably the best casting I've even seen in a BL especially for the younger version. They look the same and act the same as the older version of them. I literally had to check if they used graphics to reduce the actors ageđ
They used literal 15 year olds for highschool version of them. This was totally new although it did make me uncomfortable at times but i like that they've changed the script from the manga and made it a bit more appropriate.
Although i saw the poster and was sure Ren was the uke when i watched the drama i had doubts. I've seen golden retriever semes but here it was different. The uke was smart, successful and protecting his seme which we usually see seme doing and the seme was more on the conservative shy kinda side. Even the way they sat made me doubt myself. The best part was how they didn't show this in a over the top way and made it seem more natural.
The misunderstanding where the entire misunderstanding actually made sense. Usually I'd be like if they talked this wouldn't have happened but here it was like a solid misunderstanding. Kazuma telling Ren he liked girls. Ren being gay and feeling hurt trying to get over it. Kazuma asking him to sleep with him and ren misunderstanding he did that cz he was kind n didnt want his friend to go the wrong way. Ren feeling guilty for what he did to kazuma and nearly causing his love's death. There's no other way the plot could have progressed.
The only flaw i could see was the awkwardness between the actors during hugs and NC scenes they kinda maintained a distance. Overall in the other areas their acting was impeccable and the drama was good.

So much potential
Man this had so much potential. Kenny Bee as a super rich surgeon (like impossibly rich for being a surgeon) with a new young wife played by Jessica Hsuan. Suddenly boom, we get introduced to the family and they are all different kinds of messed up, 2 sons and 2 daughters played by some really great TVB actors like Kenneth Ma and Edwin Siu. If you want to see rich dysfunctional family then this one is perfect.Somehow later, all of Kenny Bee and his boys get on a plane to fly back to Hong Kong because of some emergency, but their plane crashes, killing everybody onboard. This results in all the cool male characters being removed in episode 1! What? The rest of the drama is then propped up by the women only, and my issue with this is that is becomes a taco-fest. You need a good mix of men and women to make a good drama, but here it is just annoying drama with these women that do things that make no sense when you think about it for more than a nanosecond. The female actors here from Angel Chiang, Moon Lau, Celina Harto and Jinny Ng (especially Jinny) were mostly annoying to watch because they flip-flop constantly in what drives them and their reasons for doing what they are doing. And the constant bitch-mode against Jessica purely because she married Kenny Bee just before he died got so tiresome.
At first the drama makes it out as if the big bad was Alice Chan. She was Kenny Beeâs secret lover until he decided to marry Jessica, and that really pissed her off to such an extent that she decided to try and take over Kenny Beeâs hospital and destroy from within. Later we discover she was not the big bad and she did not get Kenny Bee and his boys killed in the plane, it was actually Ruco Chan. Huh? It turned out Ruco used to have thing for Moon Lau, but she later married Kenneth Ma and joined Kenny Beeâs family, so out of jealousy he plotted to have them killed and take over the hospital out of spite. With this revelation, Alice Chan switches sides and helps Jessica deal with that bastard.
It ends with Jessica going to reopen her dadâs old clinic to help the needy. Like how crap is that ending? I mean she had all this money and power and in the ending she goes lol snd decides to give it all up. There was some doctor healing and surgeries in the drama but they were all politically motivated and felt like an afterthought. Overall an average drama and not worth rewatching.

OMG. So infuriating.
The husband in this is the biggest POS from beginning to end. If you want to be irritated for a couple of hours, then this is the drama for you.I wanted to quit watching but ended up watching the whole thing. The FL was good but she should have been meaner to the husband.
The ending was good.

nice drama
Boyfriend on Demand is a fun and refreshing K-drama that blends romance, comedy, and a modern concept of relationships. The story revolves around the idea of having a âboyfriend on demand,â someone who can provide emotional support and companionship whenever needed.What I enjoyed the most were the main characters. The protagonists are very charming and have great chemistry, which makes their interactions natural and enjoyable to watch. Their performances bring warmth and humor to the story, making it easy to connect with them and become invested in their journey.
Overall, Boyfriend on Demand is a light and enjoyable drama, perfect for viewers who like romantic stories with lovable characters and sweet moments.

transmigration never makes sense
This drama was fun to watch. The humor at the beginning worked well for me. It didnât feel like the jokes were written for the audience but rather like the characters themselves were having fun in the situation. That kind of humor always works better for me. The tone was also quite relaxed between the two leads from the start. Their dynamic felt natural and easy, which made the beginning very enjoyable. the biggest strength of this drama is definitely the two main characters. They were very chill with each other from the beginning, and their relationship didnât feel awkward or overly dramatic.The overall story is quite familiar, cleaning the court of corrupt officials, political struggles, and trying to leave the world in a better state. It was interesting enough to watch, but i wouldnât say it was particularly new or exciting. The plot mostly works as a framework to support the characters and their relationship.
The antagonist felt weak for me. Xiahou Bo had a reason for his anger, his mother was killed by the Empress and he redirected that hatred toward Xiahou Dan. But his motivation for fighting for the throne didnât feel very convincing. He didnât seem to have the ambition or the qualities needed to actually rule. Because of that, the second half of the drama started to feel a bit tiring for me.
The transmigration logic: The biggest problem for me is the transmigration logic. The ending is technically a happy ending, but it actually just pisses me off. Both characters return to the modern world, but the rules about time passing and aging donât really make sense. If the male lead returns older, what does that mean for his life in the modern world? Does he have an identity? Education? A home? How would he even live there? The drama also doesnât show much concern from the characters about how they will return to the real world or what will happen afterward.
I do appreciate that earlier in the story the male lead actually panicked about being in a new world, which felt more believable than characters who adapt instantly (ekhmm female lead). I just wish the ending had explored the real-world consequences more.
despite the frustrations with the transmigration logic, i still enjoyed watching this drama. The leads carried the story with their chemistry, humor, and emotional moments.

great concept
I found the idea of virtual dating to be intriguing and really refreshing to watch. However, I found that the main couple's story to not be as engaging, as I felt almost no chemistry in the beginning and then suddenly they have feelings for each other??But even though the story lacked depth, I found many aspects of the drama entertaining and funny, as I kept finding myself laughing at random moments. And overall, it's cute and entertaining, definitely a worth watch!

#bringDonback
I honestly think this is a very good series. The actors did a great job with their performances, and the overall production was really well done. However, there is one thing Iâm still upset aboutâDonâs death. Seriously, why did they have to kill him? Let my man live! I was low-key watching the series mostly for Don and Pond, and Don was such a babygirl character that it made it even harder to watch him die. I was literally crying my eyes out during that scene.One thing I really loved about the show was how well the music matched the mood of each scene. For example, when a scene was sad, the music became emotional, and when things got more intense or âspicy,â the music reflected that too. It really helped make the moments feel more powerful.
I do think it took a little too long for the main couple to get back together, but I liked how the show let us see what their relationship was like in the past and how much it had changed over time. That made their development feel more meaningful.
Overall, Iâd give this series an 8.5/10. I would highly recommend watching it if you havenât alreadyâand if you have, itâs definitely worth a rewatch

a very good feud
I was a bit scared to start this drama because of the title. Feud sounds like it will be an exhausting story, but it turned out to be a very strong story. In fact, this is one of the rare cases where I think the English title actually fits better than the original.OST: The OST is haunting and beautiful. It really fits the tone of the drama
Story and writing: The storytelling is goood and the writing feels solid. What surprised me the most is that the miscommunication actually worked?!. Normally this trope pisses me off so bad. It was clear that something had been misunderstood between the characters, but it wasnât presented in a way that made me frustrated. Instead it felt tragic and inevitable rather than stupid.
The ending: the ending is the only part that wasnât really my style. It created a lot of ambiguity, i donât hate it, but iâm not sure i fully understand it. It seemed like time changed again and reset to the very beginning, but iâm not completely sure what exactly happened. Earlier the time travel made sense when she went back a few hundred years to fix something. But at the very end it becomes more symbolic and harder to interpret? I get the symbolisms, but i need some logic.
Antagonists: one thing i liked is that the real antagonist behind the feud wasnât someone i hated. He had purpose and layers and was even willing to admit things about himself. That made him more interesting than a typical villain. In comparison, Long Yuan was much more annoying to watch. His stubbornness and arrogance made him annoying rather than interesting, and his outfit honestly looked so silly that i couldn't take him seriously.
Romance: ahhhh the loveâhate dynamic between Bai Jiusi and Aâyue is really the heart of this drama. Their relationship is intense, painful, and full of complicated emotions. It reminded me a bit of Till the End of the Moon, but it feels lighter because both characters are fundamentally good people. Their stories in the mortal world was my favorite part. Especially the illusion one. she wants him to understand her pain, but she cannot fully recreate it because she still loves him.. and because their relationship is so powerful, some of the side stories feel weaker in comparison. Aside from the antagonist and characters from the mortal world, most of the other immortals and Cloud Sect characters didnât interest me as much.
Final thoughts: what really made this drama worth watching for me was the chemistry between the leads. Sometimes they didnât even need dialogue, the way Bai Jiusi and Aâyue looked at each other said everything. Honestly, watching them interact alone was already enough reason to keep watching the drama.

I don't know how to feel.
And I probably never will.Onestamente non so cosa scrivere. Nè voglio saperlo.
L'unica cosa che so è che ho avuto la storia di due personaggi che ho sempre amato.
E che da un certo punto di vista ho avuto anche la chiusura dei loro chiamiamoli amici del liceo. Ho chiuso almeno in parte con Gu Hai e Bai Luo Yin. Ma questa non è la chiusura che volevo. PerchÊ per quanti BL di piÚ o meno qualità produrrà la Cina, il mio capitolo con Addicted è e sarà sempre aperto.
Detto ciò, probabilmente sarebbe stato meglio vedere questa serie senza aver visto Addicted. Almeno non vivrò nel triste rimpianto di avere gli attori che YoKi e Yang Meng, ma non Timmy Xu e Johnny Huang.

The truth is that this kdrama is not perfect but it is very good and entertaining
The story follows two people who, when they meet, immediately dislike each other and later are forced to live together because their siblings died and left behind a 20-month-old child whom they must take care of. Honestly, the story is very good in my opinion. At the beginning, it is a bit slow or boring, but by episode 2, everything becomes interesting. It is entertaining to see how the protagonists go from hating each other, to respecting each other, from respecting each other to becoming friends, and from becoming friends to starting to fall for each other. It is a series of the 'enemies to lovers' type, so if you like series like that, you will love this one. The acting and the chemistry between the protagonists are also very good. But there is something that is making people underestimate this series: it is the hate it is receiving.With much respect I say this, I was reading the comments and the only thing I could see was everyone hating this K-drama, saying that the protagonist is bad, that she doesn't act well, that it is poorly developed, and everything. I am watching this series and I have realized that obviously it is not perfect, but it is a very good series. But of course, people only see the bad things and don't notice the good ones. I don't think that if they met the writer in real life they would tell him all the harsh criticism they give to the series (although I think some would be capable >v). Sometimes we only see that things are not the way we want and we don't see that actually the way they did it is much better than how we wanted. Besides, we shouldn't disregard the hard work of the writers and producers of this series, who, although they made mistakes in some things, put in a lot of effort. Well, I say all this with much respect and I am sharing my opinion about this, so if you don't agree, that's okay.

Her Mischievous Kiss (2025) is a cute fantasy romance comedy miniseries with Liu Guo Hao as Feng Yan and He Ling Yao as Sang Lu in the leading coupleâs role. This is a cute and lighthearted transmigration drama between a SUPER bubbly woman and a CEO who became mute after a traumatic event. Although the female leadâs cheerful spirited personality can be annoying, it suits its purpose in getting responses from the CEO and, gladly, it tones down a bit toward the third part of the drama to give the audience a few nicely done romantic scenes. The drama might not be of high rewatchable value, it is a passable one time watch! Enjoy it!In the meantime, this drama can be found in YouTube under the caption: âThe intern being bullied turned out to be the chairman's wife! Everyone knelt down in fear.â

Best comfort watch
This show is such a comfort watch for me. I keep finding myself coming back to it and rewatching episodes because it just lifts my mood and makes me happy every time. The acting feels so natural and perfect that it almost seems like the actors were truly born to play these roles. Their chemistry and delivery make every scene enjoyable and memorable. Itâs one of those rare shows that never gets old, no matter how many times you watch it. Overall, I would definitely recommend giving it a watchâand honestly, a rewatch too. Itâs the kind of series that you can return to again and again and still enjoy just as much as the first time. đWas this review helpful to you?

Why they minimize the previous three wives.
I watched this drama since this is sequel from the male-oriented drama. The typical male oriented always got some not good looking ML while he surrounded by the beauties.The plot is still same like previous season ML transmigrates to ancient times and is bound to a favorability system. He already wins over three beautiful wives, but unexpectedly, an S-level favorability target, the leader of the Nangong Cult, appears. The conflict was less interesting than first season since it focusing on the leader making the three wives feel like wallflower.
The acting for the actors are somewhat amateurish. But the plot is solid, it's incredibly funny, and some actors deliver very convincing performances. I watched other adaptation and somehow they feel to flat but this drama still appeals to make interesting characters. A good work isn't solely achieved through expensive special effects, lavish sets, and props. Some say, "The core of a good drama is a good script and a good director" and i agree with this.
Recommended to watch if you fine with not good looking ML with the beauties FLs.
