AUAUSAVE!!! Their Chemistry is already here. MUST WATCH
Finally Fanboy is here!!!!! I have been waiting for this for months and it did not disappoint.==========================
The beginning of this storyline is soooooo exciting and interesting. It follows a fanboy, Wan (Save), who accidentally and unintentionally gets labeled a sasaeng (tho he isn’t one, just very big fan) of Nine (James) , a popular rising actor starring in a new series paired with the best supporting actor Third (Auau). Wan learns of his family financial problems and though not at first, agrees to audition to be an actor for the same series.
First impressions of the characters. Wan is absolutely adorable. He is so cute and playful and honestly doesn’t mean any harm in being a fanboy ( side note: in no way shape or form do I condone sasaengs, but Wan isn’t one ). Third seems like a cold, hard focused and disciplined rising actor who feels pressure from his mother to succeed. Nine, from the few scenes we have seen, seems like a cocky sort of arrogant and self-centered actor who gives the audience what they want, a little disingenuously though.
============================
So far, this series is extremely interesting and it does show some sides of the industry that may not be good: forcing a promotional pairing for a series popularity, managers fighting for and / or causing problems for their actors (i.e. managers fighting each other)
The CHEMISTRY between AuauSave is already here and it is amazing. They complement each other so well and their acting has definitely grown. Can’t wait to see where this series goes
==========================
Side Note: OMG!!! I loved the camoes, TeeTeePor, ThomasKong, and their upcoming series. They all looked gorgeous.And of course from DEXX. Chitty Chitty Clang Clang.
(I will be updating this review as the series progresses.

IM SAT!
if I could rate this higher than a 10 I would. only the first episode and I’m already blow away. from the acting to the visuals to the story everything about this is top tier. The opening scene having the actors with up coming series was perfect and a great way of showing off the cast. The Chemistry from AUAUSAVE is exceptional PATRYU are literally adorable and I’m so HAPPY to see James back on screen. The audition scene and bathroom scene between THIRD and WAN was perfect and the dog food at the end was like the icing on the cake.DOMUNDI HAS TRULY OUTDONE THEMSELVES ONCE AGAIN.I’m screaming its sooooo good. I’m super excited form the rest of the episode and so glad this is on Saturdays so I can truly enjoy it.

Finally, a Series That Lets Us Fans Experience the Story From Our Perspective
I like this series more than I expected. Finally, a series that lets us fans see things from OUR perspective! 😂 Being a fan is one thing, but imagine actually getting the chance to work alongside your favourite celebrity?! I’m already loving this concept!The story is off to a really interesting start. I like how it puts Wan into a completely unfamiliar world where he suddenly finds himself surrounded by actors he used to admire as a fan. There is already so much potential for funny situations, misunderstandings, romance and of course, plenty of chaos. I especially love the enemies to lovers setup between Wan and Third. Imagine thinking you hate someone, only to slowly realise they might actually be the person you fall for. I’m definitely here for that!
I really missed James after Bed Friend, so I’m glad to see him back. But honestly, what really got me hooked was Auau as Third. He is SO hot and attractive, and his aura is absolutely stunning. He has that cold and confident presence that makes Third immediately stand out. Save as Wan is completely different and so much fun to watch. He is funny, adorable and brings such a lovable energy to the character. Their contrast already works really well together.
The supporting cast also caught my attention, Wan’s friend and his sister. They add a fun younger energy to the story, and I’m looking forward to seeing how their characters develop as the series goes on.
The acting was really good for the first episode. Everyone felt natural in their roles, and the chemistry between the characters is already noticeable. I particularly enjoyed the interactions between Wan and Third because you can already feel that there is something interesting developing between them, even though they are still at the stage of constantly getting on each other’s nerves.
I also enjoyed the music and overall sound of the episode. It fits the light and playful atmosphere of the series without taking away from the scenes, and it helps give the drama that fun romantic feel.
Domundi never disappoints, and Episode 1 was such a fun start. We have an interesting plot, hot actors, good acting, cute characters and one of my favourite tropes, enemies to lovers. I already have a feeling this one is going to nail it for me.
Imagine working alongside your celebrity crush Nine, only to end up falling for the person you hated at the beginning instead. What a plot! 😂
I’m already hooked after two episodes and cannot wait for the next episode!

First impression
I liked Auau and Save ever since Your Sky, so I'm glad to see them finally get their own series.I enjoy it quite a lot so far, excited for more episodes.
You can watch it on iQIYI: https://www.iq.com/album/mr-fanboy-2026-16idaae4ye9?lang=en_us
Things I liked:
1. Other Domundi couples cameo. I did not expect to see so many Domundi couples in this series. Definitely a happy surprise though.
2. The chemistry. Auau and Save have incredible chemistry.
3. RyuPat. So happy and excited to finally see them in action.
4. Interesting plot. I personally haven't seen a series with a similar premise before, so it really feels like something new and exciting.
Things I disliked:
Nothing so far.

Idk how I feel
James needs serious improvement his face is too stiff for my liking as an actor that’s been here for a while he should be doing better and I feel one dmd is just forcing the whole thing because why is everyone from the company there ?Especially Zee I had jump scare seeing him his face is stiff more than ever Jesus Christ
They made his entrance such a dramatic thing
The way they’re adding every one from the company is lowkey taking away attention from the other two
Anyway
The other two are trying tho idk their names but I’ll be watching out for now meh

Looks very promising...I love the tension between the leads
I have been waiting for this one since the trailer came out...the plot sounded really interesting, the sparring looked yummy! I'm upping the score to 8.5Ep 2 - Very impressed with this show now..the entire caste is doing a really good job, Save as the clueless fanboy, Auau as t he unwilling celebrity who hates the glitz world, and James as the shining outside-corrosive inside celebrity...and even all the support case are also quite good...
Auau and Save really started off on a great note...or should I say they started on a sour note, which served some delish tension....James also seems absolutely poised to serve 'bitch personified' and with a overbearing and annoying mom and all those scheming industry actors to boot, this one seems all set to serve high drama...and oh, did I mention that Auau looks plain scrumptious...and Save, as they said in Ep 1, the 'Chef's kiss bottom' 🤭
Verdict: Yes, Watch

even tho only one ep is out so far, im already really enjoying this series. Auausave’s acting improved sm since your sky and their chemistry + ryupat is SO good already. I also really love the themes the series is exploring and the way they’re being introduced into the story, because they show many sides of this industrytheres still so much to discover, but the first episode definitely left me wanting more. i cant waittt

PEAK 10/10…
I’m so impressed by this first episode! I read the novel of Mr. Fanboy and they added some scenes in ep 1 that weren’t in the novel, but I really like it. Auausave had such amazing acting and so did every actor. I thought I’d be icked out by Ker being in this because she’s a Domundi staff member, but so far there wasn’t much of her and when she did show up, it flowed well. AAS have such amazing chemistry and they showed that they are main cp potential just by episode one. I don’t have much more to say but I loved this episode so much and it was one of the best bl series I’ve watched since LUAT and it’s only the first episode. Peak so far!! Can’t wait for next week.Was this review helpful to you?

Third and Nine's Acting
In this episode, Nine's cute acting and charm were very attractive, and Third's angry yet caring act was really good; I loved both Nine and Third's acting . Nine’s angry expression at the end was extremely attractive, and his smile was just as charming; Third always being mad at Win yet secretly caring about him feels really nice❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️Was this review helpful to you?
