Watched in 2024 (in order)

This would've been a 10/10 however, last episode I felt like things got too rushed because there wasn't much time left. but it was good to see everything ending on a positive note so I still felt satisfied with the ending. just felt like it needed at least an ep or 2 longer. Anyways, it's still a great drama, it's funny, serious, action pact at times, and suspenseful. even tho it's not tagged as romance, there's still a good amount of it (2 couples+1 side couple)

It was a 10/10 up until around ep 7. FL kept liking the SML and rejected ML telling him to go. But then when he does come back, she blames him for not coming back to her sooner... girl you told him to go.  They kept up this push and pull game and it got too much and tiring to watch.This part really annoyed me and took a star out.  But overall her character development was good and she matured +became responsible from the war. Both she and the ML. Even tho I don't like royal politics, I loved this one a lot.

It's a good drama but not as good as season 1. Season 1 was excellent, but season 1 felt more repetitive and boring. It sucks cuz I loved season 1 and felt like they could made s2 just as amazing- or even more. Also in ep 1 of Season 1 (the first few scenes), we STILL don't know why that person in jail is there in the first place (we know who they are tho at least) . The romance was cute. Btw I loved the crown prince, he's so caring to his people (and he got this innocent face too which helps lol)

It's short and sweet. I liked how honest ML was, wish MC did the same tho

A good movie to see the realities of how they used to live. it was interesting too, with the underworld crime stuff going on . The romance was sweet

3/15/2024-  3/17/2024
The best short cdrama I've watched. idk how to explain it. Usually with these short cdramas I'm just waitin for it to be over but this one I didn't want it to be over at all. I watched the director's other work "A familiar stranger" and that one is also excellent (but I think I prefer this one a lil more)   I loved the second coouple a little bit more than the first. idk why maybe cuz I'm more of a slow burn type than established realtionships but they're both great. SML character's change was so nice to see. I wish we can get a full-length drama on the second couple cuz I loved them soo much.

I also liked the mindset of the 2 MLs. They don't mind washing cloths or doing the cooking for teh family and wives. Usually in that time period, the wives do that stuff and men go to war so I like the difference of mindset the the MLs had.

However it would've been nice to see a little bit more to the ending and what happened but o well

rewatched (skimmed a bit here and there and skimmed a lot of the last few eps but it's ok). It's been exactly 1 year since I watched this show last year in spring break and now it is spring break again. Even tho it's a rewatch I still love it so much. Their love is so unconditional, I feel like rewatching all over again.

unque plot

4/26/2024

After dropping so many dramas, I finally got into a drama (this one). This pleasantly surprised me with how much I enjoyed it. The first 2-3 eps I was so close to dropping, it didn't look that good to me but omg on ep 4 and onward it became SO much better so I'm glad I stuck with it in the beginning eps. I love FL, she says what she wants to say unfiltered, she used to be villain supporting characters so I like that her personality is different than a typical FL who's too nice and stuff. ngl I didn't have any expectations from villian ML at first, I thought he was just gonna be one sided character but I was wrong. He became a more layered character the more we saw him. He became my fav, I love him. And when he became so soft and protective of FL, it was cute. At first I thought plot was gonna be bland and too rushed, but I started to really like the storyline, it became interesting. Although the ML in the comic (our SML) is a bland character

5/21/2024-5/22/2024
I really enjoyed watching this drama. I wish it was longer tho cuz there was too many plottwists and the pacing went too fast. If this was a 30-40 eo 45min long drama then I feel like it would've been better where it made more sense. Anyways the acting from the leads is SO good considering it's just a minidrama. Some of the shots of the drama are so beautiful

Love LOVE the FL, she's not ur typical hero, she has aflaws and is a villian. But a lot of her evil actions was to survive

6/21/2024-6/26/2024

Really loved the first 30 eps, those parts I would give it a good 10/10 stars for sure. like I LOVED it sm, the whole slowburn with FL and ML was so fun to watch and the plotlines that was happening. There were side characters that I really liked and I liked all the family drama that was going on. My fav family is def ye family, they treated her like a daughter and this was when FL and ML got the chance to get closer and have more screen time together than before. The last 10 eps started to bore me a bit idk why. I did get a bit more busier around that time so that could be a factor. I felt like the story focused more on the war and royal politics, but I don't like those too much. I find royalty politics a bit boring but it was still interesting to watch. I just didn't feel the same amazement as I did in the first 30 eps. Also at the last episode, I felt like when ML went to war was unnecessary. It made their reunion and the story's ending too rushed. That's why instead of a 10/10 stars, I gave it a 8.5 stars

7/12/2024-7/19/2024
The ending is a bit disappointing, but it's to be expected considering it's a censored BL in china. I'm probably going to read the novel for a good ending and more romance scenes between MC and ML. But I really enjoyed some of the doors but some doors were ok but still enjoyable.My fav door was I think door 10 cuz so much was happening in that door. Door 11 was great too to see all those side characters again. The ghost girl in that hs was the scariest and I liked how it kept me on my toes the whole time. Also I liked the drum skin story too. They had great mystery in those doors. MC and ML's chemistry was amazing.

it's either 8.5/10 or 9/10. I enjoyed the drama overall but some things I didn't like as much. tbh I got a lil bored around the end

7/20/2024-7/30/2024

Heartwarming, funny but also angsty because each story of the obsession is pretty sad.  I love the friendship of the 3. Bromance was good too. Every episode is also not boring at all, I'm glad I watched this. No doubt it's a 10/10 stars from me. I wish it was longer

8/4/2024
Weird movie… too many plots going at the same time and plus sci fi that they don’t really explain which made it more confusing. I really like the actors though and the visuals were nice. It was still an interesting movie but it didn’t make any sense. I would’ve given this a 5-6 stars but it has my fav actors here and the visuals were nice

7/31/2024-8/1/2024
The first 2 eps were a bit boring, but ep 3 and onwards, it became better and really sweet. I mean, the plot itself is pretty basic, but, eh it's the relationships that I love the most. At first I didn't like ML's friends, but they got better, and I started to rlly enjoy their interactions. Tbh second couple were ok to me but I did warm up to them after while. I just finished ep 9 and won't continue anymore. I heard so many times that ep 10 is sad so I'm good just ending it here. Also I can sense the bad ending a mile away with the way ep 9 ended, so def not watching ep 10. I had this drama on my watchlist ever since 2019 or even before that but the bad ending scared me off lol but I'm glad I watched it, it's short. 

8/9/2024-8/10/2024

I enjoyed the plot. I did feel like the last 2 episodes were starting to bore me, so I didn't give it a 8.5. I feel like in most thai dramas I always get bored by the second half. Plus all that crying got tiring to watch so I started to skip. MC and ML were making dumb decisions, which were annoying but oh well. but still a nice drama to watch overall with the fantasy stuff

8/20/2024-8/22/2024

I was enjoying the first couple at first but once they got together I got a lil bored ngl. The second half of the plot got boring to me so I started to skim through those parts to get to the couple. However, cuz the second couple shows a lot more in the second half, I still enjoyed it. If it wasn't for them then the rating would be much lower. I didn't care about the main couple as much anymore.. idk why I just started to feel bored and I felt like their storyline in sec half was becoming weirdly complicated. However, I liked that they didn't hide away from intimacy, and I liked how they shot it

9/8/2024-9/11/2024

I'm soo glad I held off on watching this because once I started on 9/8/24 at night, I binged it and finished it on 9/9/24. I don't think I'd have the patience to wait.

Anyway, I enjoyed this BL, I love how the relationships between the leads developed in the beginning; it was so cute. Seeing Taichi start to realize his own feelings for him was so nice too see and btw his crying scenes literally want to make me wanna sob. Idk much about hearing loss except the general info but I thought this drama did a good job on portraying it and showed the inner struggles on it. I liked the first half a lot more than the second half tho tbh. It's just there was a shift in the story which I didn't like much.

I didn't like Maya, she kept trying to tell Kohei that Taichi wouldn't understand him ect, I didn't like her negativity, and even on ep 11 I felt like she didn't change this part of her. On ep 12 she was better tho

9/12/2024-9/15/2024

rewatch

omg.. I love this drama so much. I watched this when it was still ongoing, I can't believe that was 3 years ago. I gave it a 9/10, something cuz I didn't like the way the characters were acting or something? but I think what it really was, was that since I was watching this while it was airing, I probably forgot a lot of things from the characters and didn't feel connected to the MLs and MC anymore. That's why I don't watch dramas while it's airing to avoid this. 

Anyway, I changed the rating to a 10/10; it's so enjoyable and cute to watch.  I love the second couple too. It's nice to see a FL in a BL who is not in the way and supportive. I want to see more like that, but it's rarely there.

11/5/2024-11/8/2024

Pretty good drama; I liked seeing a ruthless FL for a change. Even till the very last ep she was punishing a sinner and killing him with a ticket right to hell. But it was nice to see FL also start to become considerate to the innocent and wants to judge fairly. The ending felt like there could be a season 2 but it ends in a way that also gives everyone a HE but FL situation is undetermined if she's going to continue being a human or go to hell in 1 year. I really liked Bael; like, dang he was just so handsome. It was also funny how a demon became a monk and wanted to go to heaven lol. I really liked the debate cases; it was interesting and I liked the fantasy aspect itself. Romance was cute too; at first they were enemies to lovers, where ML kept trying to catch the FL and take her to prison but by ep 8 they became allies and more sweet later on. Tbh I felt a lil bored at the last eps, idk why.

Acting was very good from everyone, especially FL. I used to hear she was a bad actress or something but in this drama she did such a great job and embodied the role of a vicious judge from hell. It was really fun watching her not give a crap about anybody and just doin her own thang. Also, I like the power imbalance between the leads. Usually it's the ML who's a more powerful figure than FL but that wasn't the case here

11/10/2024-11/11/2024

OST at the end is so good
The reason why I wanted to watch this was because of the ML, I saw him from MCL and really loved him there plus the story looked like somthin I'd like. Also cuz Love Game in Eastern Fantasy is airing rn but I was trying to wait until more eps come in so I decided to watch this (somthin similar to get my mind off of that drama PS: It didn't work lol)

By episode 4, I couldn't keep watching fully because the plot was boring to me tbh. The whole toxic family drama, it was just boring to me so I mostly skipped to just the romance part which was really cute. Also I felt like the toxic family drama was just rinse and repeat the whole time throughout (I did watch some parts of it). I did however, like the farming aspects of the drama, it was really cool to see how they used to make food from scratch and I liked the scenery. There is a love triangle but it didn't annoy me even tho I hate love triangles. SML was a good character.

For the ending, the characters got their HE and also the second couple. I feel like the ending was too happy for the toxic family, I mean, most of the scheming and drama came from them... and yet everyone is forgiven lol. For our leads... I feel like the ending should've been extended a bit to really show the ending we deserve from the main leads. Like we know it's HE from them but it's so abruptly cut off that it doesn't feel satisfying. 

<SPOILER> 

 I wish they showed more that ML was a player. Like if it was more obvious instead of subtle hints. It would've been much of a better drama and romance if FL realized ML was a player in the game. Like ML confesses, he's a player in the game, maybe in ep 15 or so. This way the ending feels more satisfying instead of abrupt.

11/14/2024-

On ep 9 rn but I really love this. I like the friendship/family themes a lot. Pretty to look at too. I love the friendship with the SFL, she really cares about FL and they seem like sisters.I like that this feels like an actual romance drama; it's not just subtle romance. I mean, I do like subtle romance but I really wanted a drama like this where romance is more upfront. ML's acting is good. It's like super animated or somthin you'd see in a cartoon. It fits so well with this type of drama. FL acting is a bit too bubbly for my tastes but I can overlook it, she's not a bad actor. And the chemestry?? man it's GIVING. The story pushes the narrative that demons are the good guys and I do like that trope in these dramas. The OST is ok, kinda generic tho but some were catchy. SML and SFL acting is good but stiff, especially SML. Maybe it's supposed to be that way, idk.

I literally binged all 12 eps in 1 day (14th) it just was so damn good! I didn't expect myself to love it this much,
It's such a happy feel/comforting drama. I can def see myself rewatching. I just hope it's a HE but I feel pretty sure that it will be. The vibes would be off if it's a sad end.
