A nice BL out of stereotype and that you feel like a good wine

One of the best drama I watch and that I don't mind to rewatch again. First of all, we have a couple which are versatile, no stereotype of bottom and top which is good among all the BL we find. The story is really well built and they could do enough with the number of episodes they had. Even with more episodes they would have some stuff to put and it is nice. The actors ... wow. they have a really good chemestry and they know how to act and I am talking about all the cast not just the lead actors. Thank you for making a BL of this high quality.

Literally my favorite BL ever

I love this show with my whole being. I went in not expecting to love it as much as I did, but the story and the characters were amazing. I highly recommend you watch this. I think its a good beginner show to watch, its not too spicy and the plot is so good. I also enjoyed the fact that there was only one couple and we could really focus on their story and not have others.

Bad Buddy is undoubtedly a series I would relish watching repeatedly.

Bad Buddy: The Series provided an exhilarating viewing experience. Each episode, released weekly, captivated me, leaving me eagerly awaiting the subsequent installment. The series maintained a consistent pace, ensuring there were no dull moments. Unlike other GMMTV productions, it exuded a unique freshness that set it apart. The exceptional on-screen chemistry between the main leads was fun to watch, enhancing the overall narrative. Their dynamic performances truly anchored the show. Bad Buddy is undoubtedly a series I would relish watching repeatedly. Bad Buddy stands out as one of the best BL dramas I've ever watched, and my second viewing was just as captivating as the first. Nanon and Ohm, portraying Pran and Pat, share incredible chemistry that gives me a delightful tingle during their scenes. Their gaze, hand-holding, and the charming moments of puppy love create an enchanting experience.

The storyline is truly impressive, marked by a well-paced plot that never drags. Integrating brands seamlessly into the narrative was a clever touch that didn't feel intrusive. This BL is a prime example of a well-written and brilliantly acted series, offering a comforting and satisfying viewing experience. While I'd love a season 2, the excellence of season 1 leaves me content.

Having watched over 50 BLs, I confidently rank Bad Buddy in my top 3 favorites, if not the number one spot at times. It's a must-watch for those seeking a show with a engaging storyline, impeccable acting, and a perfect balance of emotions.

The performances of the main leads are superb, with seamless chemistry that makes them feel like a real-life couple. The emotional scenes are particularly striking, with Ohm portraying Pat's playful yet serious tone brilliantly, and Nanon conveying every emotion through his expressive eyes. Bad Buddy is a show I can't stop praising for its greatness.

Onde o Ódio Tem Sabor Doce

A série mistura as duas abordagens que eu mais gosto: amigos de infância e "enemies to lovers". Transformou esses clichês clássicos e saturados em ouro, criando um novo padrão de qualidade. A obra conseguiu fazer muito com tão poucos recursos. O romance desafiado pela rivalidade entre as famílias e a forma como isso afeta a relação entre os meninos são tocantes... de doer a alma! A dinâmica entre Pan e Prat é eletrizante. Os episódios vão de interações hostis a um romance bobo, inocente, cativante, divertido e puro. O contato à primeira vista como inimigos, junto com o carinho doce subliminar por trás de cada ação, me deixou diabético!

my comfort......

this is my comfort BL drama for sure.... whenever I feel like I am in a bad mood or I feel exhausted with my life I watch this bI to see their friendship the love the cuteness the forbidden trope and bl gl trope, the one sided love the enemies to lovers........
I love the actors nanon and ohm .....
they are great
I especially loved iat when pat realises that he is in love with pran ....
the moment of realisation in his eyes is beautiful
their first kiss was one of the best kisses in BL history
the kiss was kind of letting go of what the parents what their relationship to be like and accepting what their heart wants.....
the scene in which pat loudly confuses to pran is sooooo beautiful
there are a lot of people who don't think that this is the best BL ever but I am not a very critical person while watching a bl and may be that's why I loved this drama and I always watch this
and every time I watch this BL I love it even more
the actors did a good job in portraying there roles and I am very happy that I could watch this drama anytime I want
if you think this drama is bad I don't know what to say to you but I loved it

I am not looking into this drama in a critical way but I am just looking it to it how my heart wants to look at it I love this drama and will always recommend anyone to watch it

the actors had great chemistry and they were very cute too
I know that the actors don't have a friendship as of now but I am happy that patpran will always have a great relationship in my mind........
and I really really loved our Sky 2 bad buddy
even though I did feel like in our Sky 2 the characters seem to be a little distant and their chemistry had gone little low

I think this is one of the best bl's made and I will always come back to this for ever

and I hope that you will enjoy this drama too

NOTHING AND NOBODY WILL EVER BEAT THE ENEMIES TO LOVERS THAT OHMNANON ENEMIED TO LOVERED.

The tension, the chemistry, the gradual emotional unraveling—it was executed with such perfection that it set an unbeatable standard for the trope. 💕💗No one compares! YOU HAVE TO WATCH IT! YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT

is it really that good? YES!!!

my first ever gmmtv bl, I wasn’t expecting much since I thought it’s just a regular rivalry Highschool drama but NO, I’m wrong. The fact that they were born to go against eo, born to compete, born to hate eo without even knowing they fell for each other and had to keep it all a secret. I love how the story is so realistic. the chemistry is way too good, I swear I cried because I didn’t want it to end, I love them patpran. I swear after that I went to watch every interview they had. the osts are so good specially ‘just friends’ and ‘our song’ it really apply towards the actual plot and I love it. 10/10 I RECOMMEND IT SOO BADDD!!

My most re-watched show

The mains do a fantastic job, their chemistry is off the charts, and the story is great. Personally I wasn't a fan of how the show ended but it doesn't effect my overall rating of the show. The heartfelt moment after they realize their feelings for each other was beautiful. They should have won all the awards right there. The supporting cast was really good too. I loved seeing good supportive friendships rather than people just there with the label "friend" and not really contributing anything other than comic relief. If I actually cared about being one of those BL couple fanatics, this show would have made me their fan.

the characters have crazy chemistry

it was a great show, totally recommend it! Both acting of the main characters is very good!! The storyline itself is cute and funny. I love how they overcome their selves in order to love each other. it’s very sweet. I wish for everyone to find a live like theirs!!! it’s such an awesome show, they got me writing a review and I never do that. Freaking amazing work, congrats to the story writer, the director and all the stuff that worked on this show. Also I’m going to say it again, one of the best acting ever!

This was amazing

Y'all... I loved this... no spoilers, but I loved this, and I know everyone and their mother loved this (well... this may not be a mom kind of show) but I loved it so much, it ate, I loved it. It just made me super happy. I truly don't think I've ever been this content with the ending and just the everything in a show, like everything about it was really good, and honestly the things that I might have a small issue with are so small and insignificant that they don't even effect the rating I'm giving it, like this might be one of the few 10/10 BL's I've seen (Not Me is 10/10 too tho dw dw) Like its not even that this is my new fav show or that it's even in my top shows I've seen, but it was just so good and complete and made me happy that I just loved it even though its not my all time favorite (idk if that makes sense) ANyways, it was really good 10/10 would recommend, would watch again

Bad Buddy Best BL 2025

I love the story, characters, I love that it did not contain rich CEO using status to intimidate bully his subordinate into a relationship. I enjoy some of the BL but most of them have the same stereotype story line. I am not of the community but I support and encourage more stories like bad buddy. everything about this show was truly amazing. It did not sensationalize or sexualize the characters, it did not put the narrative that LGBTQ focus their sexuality onto someone else. I recommende this show. I will watch it again. hoping for more of these characters
