Just here Because of Food not the leads.

First of all, I want to say Peng Dai Dai and Duan Meiyang have no chemistry between them and i feel the Male Lead is kind of reluctant to near Female Lead (in character and real life).

Plot is about FL is found out she is getting cheated by her husband and his best friend. Her restaurant is snatched by the cheaters. Somehow modern girl transmigrated into FL body and make her noodles recipe and make her own restaurant. ML who tried to find food since his mother developed anorexia eat FL food and try to make her as his personal chef.

They are quite have funny moments but the romance and kiss scene is not interesting.

Only watch for once.

First movie about professional dancers

I loved it! There was not a single moment where I thought it's boring. The story and chemistry were superb. I really felt the raw emotions in the scene where they kissed in the hotel room. The actors were really handsome and actresses beautiful. It's the first movie I have watched about professional dancers. All the dances and dancers were really captivating. The music was good too. I really liked that they decided to add 'sway'. I saw a youtube edit about '10dance' with 'sway' some time ago and thought it fits perfectly.
I really hope there will be '10dance 2' where we get to see more of their relationship.

I really didn't want to dock any points, but this had to be said.

Honestly I love this series. I found the prologue by accident (which I didn't hate but it left me feeling very unfulfilled and empty) and mistakenly thought this series was about the secondary couple. I was actually really enjoying both couples, especially in the beginning before the relationship happened because the tension was great and you can really tell the actors are good at their job!

So yeah, cute couples, amazing story, even better acting .... HOWEVER, the one spot the acting failed is convincing me these people (the main couple, not the secondary one.. they had hella chemistry and you can tell others think so too from the reviews) actually like each other and aren't just playing a role. The hugs are stiff and all in the same awkward pose (the love interest doesn't even lean his head on his supposeed boyfriend's shoulders while they hug... is that even natural???), the kisses have absolutely no emotion-- like I'm not asking them to make out( I'm used to more closed lipped kisses in series like this where the NC or intimacy isn't the focus, especially KBLs) but in one scene I can even tell bro does NOT want to be kissing his coworker... how does that make sense? I've seen hella bad chemistry before but this is the first time when I could 100% accurately say that tell two actors did not want to be kissing in a particular scene. crazy. It but a weird taste in my mouth for the rest of the intimacy scenes. Especially the last episode? Wtf it's like y'all don't even want to hold hands it's so awkward

TL;DR .. Um, if you came for heart fluttering kiss scenes and cute skinship/fluff, this might not be it for you, but the romance is still tolerable and the story is still amazing! I won't be rewatching personally, but you should give it a chance idk

Wasted talent

Only You was very disappointing. We know that LingOrm can deliver; we’ve seen their acting in The Secret of Us. They routinely show better chemistry at fan events than they did in this, and that’s not on them, that is bad directing. Channel 3 has the resources to make amazing GL stories, and yet they seem to be trading on the star power of the actresses instead of producing quality content.

None of the body guards were believable. Body guards in stilettos? At the very least they should be in flat shoes, probably athletic shoes. Body guards need to be ready to run, fight, or manage a crowd, not ready for a night out or a fashion runway. I realize that Thai TV leans into a specific aesthetic for gl actresses, and even ignoring all the problems with that, if you are unwilling to forgo the aesthetic to build a believable character, then perhaps stick to characters for whom the aesthetic is believable. The one and only positive I can say here is that the gun handling was better than most shows; at least they didn't run around with their fingers on the trigger just itching for a negligent discharge to kill some random innocent bystander. With the hype around the gun training they did, I still expected more, but I liked seeing all those fingers straight down the frame of the gun exactly where they belong.

The plot is lacking and the writing terrible. It’s obvious from the two main scenes from the trailer that they hadn’t finished, or perhaps even started, the script when the pilot was created. Major plot points shifted between pilot and production. In the pilot Tawan says Ayla is “just a girl” so I believed the story was going to be another age-gap romance. While I’m relieved that this wasn’t another example of Thailand speed running all the worst LGBTQ+ tropes the west had to get past, it was jarring to have a major change like this. Then when Tawan confesses to Ayla in the pilot there is an attempt on Ayla’s life, so understandably I was ready for an action scene that never came in the production, once again pulling me out of the story. There are ways to create pilots that subvert expectations in order to keep the viewer guessing and engaged as the story unfolds, but this came across as poor continuity and a lack of care about the story.

I kept waiting for it to get better and pull me in, but sadly it never happened.

Im writing this in the year 2025. I watched this with my friend and it was confusing. The deaths of the students didnt relate to the main story. Like at the end, it revealed who's behind everything, but it still didnt tell why did he do it. like we know bc a girl is dead and it turns out to be his daughter, doesnt mean he have to kidnap students and kill them. they did nothing wrong. if he wanna revenge for his daughter, he could have just kill the teacher who killed his daughter, instead of torturing students. honestly, the movie was ok, its just confusing.
if you like this type of horror movie, me and my friend will recommend. but if you dont, but still youre curious of how this movie goes, be prepare to waste 1.5 hrs of your life.
thank you.

(and i wanna watch this bc of kim bum lol, so sad bro didnt get a happy ending :(()

Not overacting green tea ML

This is one of Duan Meiyang best drama for me. I watch many his drama but all of his drama is not really good because too many bad plot and direction. I never thought Song Yujia suits Duan Meiyang and their chemistry is not disappointing since DMY have kind of younger brother vibe despite both actor born on the same year. DMY plays green tea ML was my favorite even he didn't beat Wang Peiyan throne.

The Plot is about FL who is already to finalize their divorce to her business marriage husband. Of course they keep the divorce secret for business. ML didn't know FL divorce try to climb into her room and then thought they had an affair. The Pseudo Infidelity plot is not dragged too long so there is no repeat action on the couple behavior. ML was willingly to being a mistress since he fell in love with FL for a long time. FL ex husband is not too scumbag compared to other drama (he didn't cheat) but he is just realized he already fell in love with FL.

The ending was well-deserved.

Recommended to watch for Duan Meiyang fans.

Superb production for a lousy story

The cast is fantastic, the visuals - outstanding. Costumes, CGI, music - a real feast. And all this is completely wasted to tell a lousy story with way too many subplots, secondary characters, turns and twists. There is just too much of everything in this narrative: going back in time, visitors from another world, amnesias, fake identities ... you name it. Unfortunately, all of those elements are just thrown down and scrambled without any consistent, premeditated order.
And in the middle of it all you have Luo Yunxi playing superbly, looking so handsome, doing his awsome ballet with weapons and getting such an unsatisfying story line. He could've had a meaningful relationship with a girl, but no - she left. He could've had a meaningful bromance with Fang Yilun, but no - all the moments they have together are way to brief and there is just no time to develop this plot in depth, because of lots of other secondary narratives. He has a group of friends but finally is unable to save any one of them, so the only thing to do is reset the timeline and just disappear from their lives.
What a stupid, anticlimactic ending for LYX.
I am really sorry for him, because he is such a fantastic actor, so fitting to play in costume dramas (like he was born in hanfu), but he is so often wronged by the script.

Just a generic rom com dud with mediocre chemistry and not worth your time.

Just another drama added to list of cliche generic duds with nothing new to offer. The leads have little to no chemistry and it's funny that for a drama titled "Dynamite Kiss" they literally had leads kissing like dead fishes. I still wonder why they even for the leads actors and what spark they saw in these two.

The latter half of the drama is literally ripped from King The land but only worse plus added that cliche breakup before final episode crap. Even KTL wasn't something new and was generic to say the best but damn the leads had some serious chemistry also a healthy relationship built on trust where both of them chose to deal with issues together instead of breaking up.

The second leads too have almost zero progression when it comes to romance so far and I am sure their plot too will be rushed just to give a happy ending.

I don't even need to waste my time to watch the last 2 eps to know how it will end.

Around i - take me forever to review this title

Alright, I was in episode 4 when I realized that Ogami was the failed guy in More Than Words (2022) whose coldness destroyed Maki by siding with the failed Maki friendship: Mieko.

In this series, I am assuming he will not go in the same direction as the previous title, where viewers (me) felt devastated by the outcome.

The most perfect thing about this series is the opening sequence with the 36 km/hour song titled “Around I”; the vibe, the visual mood, and the scoring background are definitely high art. I cannot get over it.

This series is my type. I eat it happily.
