I think this is the best of History1, from the story that amazed me a lot to the plot that wonderfully presented.
So many quotes that I got from this series make me wonder how great the script was. Even the twist at the end of this series affect me in a huge way. I don’t even guessed that their story would end beautifully, hence I thought something sad would come eventually.
Now I am thinking about another History franchise that have higher rating than this one. However, I think I shouldn’t have high expectations yet before I watched another shows coming.

The series was quite interesting since the very beginning, the meeting of both of characters that quite cliche made me wonder how would the series goes.
Honestly, it’s hard to hold your boner when you’re watching this typical genre, even though there weren’t many scenes that showed sensuality but still the way how He described about anything made my mind went out.
I thought I’m gonna watch the sequel. hm

I actually wondering why I felt this way, but the most reasonable answer is I putted an expectation with a huge number of this series. I fell in love with their story in the first place, but somehow I have been thinking that this show could be better than it was.
Or maybe, they just left us many questions to be answered in the next season?

Fortunately, the performances of those two actors were more than mediocre to convinced me that this series was believable.
However, I still feel a lil bit unsatisfied about some stories that should be presented are thrown away and seem like they want to be finished as quickly as possible.
In Indonesian:
Kalau sudah nonton drama korea memang tidak perlu pakai logika, mau dipaksa kayak apapun tidak akan bisa masuk. Saya sendiri sampai bingung tentang hubungan kedua karakter utama serial ini, apakah memang mungkin hal tersebut bisa terjadi di korea ? karena kalau di Indonesia hal seperti itu mustahil untuk bisa diterima akal sehat.
Namun, untung saja akting kedua aktor cukup mumpuni untuk bisa meyakinkan saya bahwa serial ini masih bisa ditonton hingga akhir.
Tetapi sayang sekali beberapa cerita yang sepatutnya bisa diangkat, malah dibuang dan terkesan seperti ingin segera diselesaikan secepat mungkin.

Some illogical reasons that made me mutter in my head (and hearts?), making this series should be able to get higher points than this.
Phuwin and Pond's acting were really good, unfortunately it's not supported by the scripts.
In addition, this series is helped by the strong character of Mork who always made me blush. And also the love beans song which is very "Ear Catching" makes this show become one of the series that has a wonderful soundtrack of this year.

How many episodes did I cry? I don't even remember, for sure more than 3 episodes of this series succeed make me shed my tears. But yeah, that's enough. There were a lot of ambiguity that makes me unable to give more stars to this series. I like seeing them together, I fell in love with their acting but I felt the story revolved around the place with a lack of elaboration of the conflict seems to be the weak point of this series.

Earlier this year, I expected more from KeixYaku that has a similar story, but Thailand packs it more adorable and of course many surprises. Stories about 2 different mafias, or between two opposite professions (such as police vs mafia) are the mainstay themes that I always look forward to every year.
KinnPorsche "only" tells about the romance between the Boss and his Body Guard, as we’ve seen in Golden Blood. However, these two series from the same country have very opposite qualities (like a huge gap). When I first watched KinnPorsche, I actually had my doubts, considering that a lot of people had predicted this series since the beginning of the pandemic. Of course my concerns are justified, remembering what happened with TarnType 2 back in 2020.
But again KinnPorsche offers a breath of fresh air. With an unusual story flavor coupled with a side couples were able to get more attention (at least mine). And the finale episode made my emotions go up and down, although in the end this series was able to make me smile widely until the last second.
The problem is, I feel like this series hasn’t finished yet. Many secrets still being uncovered, especially the riddles of Mr. Korn and (of course) his (big) family. Plus the love stories of Kim-Porschay and Vegas-Pete which made me hanging. I need another season!!!! 😭😭😭

With the mental readiness to watch this series one by one every episode, I almost completely fell in love with this series. No doubt this series has a vibe that reminds me of My Love Mixed up, which is fun-hilarious-funny and (of course) silly.
Japanese series always make me smile every time I watch them, this one is deserves more stars actually 🥺
In Indonesian:
Rasanya tema tentang Mr/Mrs Unlucky sudah ada dalam beberapa series atau film, namun baru kali ini saya nemu dibawakan dalam tema BL. (maaf kalo saya ada yang ketinggalan lol)
Dengan kesiapan mental menonton series ini satu persatu setiap episodenya, saya hampir sepenuhnya jatuh cinta sama series ini. Tak ayal series ini vibenya mengingatkanku sama My Love Mixed up, yakni fun-hilarious-funny and (of course) silly.
Japanese series selalu buat saya sumringah setiap habis menontonnya!

Fandy helped this series more interesting with his great performance, even I had a doubt at first about his acting but somehow his characters has the most development. When he became more “serious” about “his love”, the staging developed with a huge quality.
Another point that I gave plus for this show is the music, I kinda like it if we compared with all of soundtracks of History 1, in these sequel the quality of the music are stronger.

The twist that they brought at the end the one that I didn’t expect, I knew at some point there will be a past of him (at least one of them) would come in the middle of their happiness.
I love the chemistry amongst them, so many “flowers” flourished in between. lol
I hardly can’t wait for watching another one!

My problem is, the actor itself I didn’t feel any connection amongst them. If we talked about how good Feng He was, of course He is but when we saw the chemistry with Cheng Qing is quite awful actually.
However, a plus point came from Meng Meng. I always adore a fujoshi that created a story that seems impossible become a real one. A double thumbs for her and certainly her performance!
2 done, more to go! I’ll finish all of the History franchise! woo hoo

Honestly, the story like this wasn’t special and have even existed in several BL films / series, but there is always an unique interest (to me) from the Taiwanese series when it comes to romance like this. 🥺
Throughout this series, I have no idea why but for some reason I always remembered some scenes on Thai series, and I just realized that some of those scenes were actually took (or the subtle language was inspired) from this series.

It kinda funny actually seeing both teachers loving each other in a short of a time, my logic said it is impossible but my heart breathing so fast.
Even though I detest of the acting of Akagi but somehow his appearance blow me out with all of his weirdness. lol
Uh. Again, Japanese series made my day every single time.

With this short duration, this show perfectly lifted my mood of korean bl series for the very first time in 2022. I haven’t felt this great since Bad Buddy ended in January.
From my perspective, all of actors really did their job flawlessly good. Even their side characters were beyond than mediocre.
I didn’t expect much of this series on pilot episode, I even thinking to dropped this series early. But the story look right on more interesting than I expected.
However, there are some things that bugged me and affected me to gave this series only for this rate:
First, I really want to see the connection between his sister (Si Yeong) and his friend (Yun Jeong). Second, Is there any story between Ba Woo and Yun Jeong?. And last, I really wish that they solved their last argument more intense than it was. It really feel easy to me and I believe that conflict was more hurtful than it looks.

Not because this series is not worth watching, but if we look at another histories before this, both of them have a huge quality that is far above of this series.
The recurring story about the love affair between siblings, with simple conflicts between the main characters, makes this series seem like a fad.
This series is saved precisely thanks to the professional-looking acting of the main leads, because even from the musical side, this series doesn't seem to have the slightest good side.
In Indonesian:
Ekspektasi saya sepertinya terlalu tinggi terhadap history 4, sehingga sekarang yang saya rasakan begitu kecewa terhadap series ini.
Bukan karena series ini tidak layak ditonton, tapi jika kita melihat 2 series history sebelum ini, keduanya amat sangat memiliki kualitas yang jauh diatas series ini.
Cerita yang terulang kembali soal percintaan antar saudara, dengan konflik yang juga sederhana antar tokoh utama membuat series ini nampak seperti iseng saja dibuatnya.
Series ini tertolong justru berkat akting para pemain yang nampak professional, karena dari sisi musikpun series ini nampak tak ada sisi bagusnya sedikitpun.
