Gay movies/dramas

A list of all the gay/lgbtq+ movies/dramas I've watched so far.


I have only included movies/dramas where the gay characters/couples are prominent.


Any censored romances will be specified as such, as will any series where I've written too much and therefore had to post a review instead.


In regards to recommendation specifics:


Yes: Either means that I really enjoyed it. Or that I believe most other people would like it. 


Yes and no: Either means that I didn't particularly enjoy it. Or that there were some messages/choices I didn't like.


No: Either means that it was a sad/tragic ending. Not really a BL. Or that it was plain bad.

    It appears that it has been removed from YouTube. Therefore there is no official link anymore. 

    So it got canceled, I guess? There were only subtitles in the first two episodes. Therefore, I just gave up on the last two episodes. I can't really say much about it.

    No kiss.

    I mostly enjoyed it. The acting was okay. They tried a lot of different things with this series. There was the narrating, the poetic ending, and the many supposed-to-feel-deep talks. Some worked, others fell short. I just felt like the tone changed as we dove further into the story. It was more cheerful in the first half. Some of the character's choices didn't make sense. Frankly, I was a little confused throughout the last two episodes. But hey, the main couple was cute. They had decent chemistry. I liked Cholo and Migo's talk in the last episode. Migo said some very needed things. The other two couples were not great. I liked the girls together, but it felt a bit rushed. I really want closure for Josh, Max, and Andrei. The way they left it was unsatisfying.

    There were kisses.

    Happy ending.

    This is probably one of the most easy-going and stress-free BL series ever. It wasn't toxic or full of BL tropes. It was domestic and wholesome. They were like a married couple. The episode where they babysat together was everything I've ever wanted. Tops and Win brought out the best in each other. It was mostly Win who grew throughout the series. He was also the one that needed it. Compared to Tops, he was less mature. He was a very impulsive and emotional person. At least they always quickly made up after a disagreement. Don't get me wrong, though. I did like both of them. Most of the earlier episodes didn't include a lot of romantic moments. When they finally got closer, though, they were so good together. The acting was great, and it felt very natural/realistic. They must have improvised a lot. I personally don't really care for the food aspect in most BL's, but in this one, they obviously put a lot of effort and meaning into the dishes. It was genuinely interesting. Also, Gameplay actually is a good cook, and Jeff is a singer. It made everything more believable.

    It was quite weirdly paced, and it was too short. There was no way they could fit such a complex story into four short episodes. It's a shame because the plot was interesting. The acting was good. The chemistry was amazing. I mean, the second couple was very under-developed, but I saw potential. I always get so happy when they talk about legal marriage in BL's. Taiwan is ahead of all the other Asian countries in that department. That said, it was sad that they referred to Zheng Yu Shi as Wu Zheng's wife. That's regressive.

    I can't really say too much about this yet. It felt weird that Wu Zheng both infantilized and also engaged in sexual activities with Yu Shi. I guess he was Noah when he was being treated like a child and Yu Shi when they were intimate? I hope so. I'm no expert on having DID, though. Maybe that isn't an issue? I really don't know.

    I'm sorry, but why would you invite your closeted ex-boyfriend, who you look to still be in love with, to your wedding? I mean, Taeil must have purposefully found him. You don't just walk around with a wedding invitation all the time. How pained Jihun looked. Honestly, though, I felt the worst for Jihun's wife. I would assume Jihun only married her to not go through any hardships in regards to his sexuality.  Hopefully, Taeil actually wanted to marry Wonwoo and wasn't just trying to get over Jihun.

    To be honest, after the first four or so episodes, I lost interest. I was just waiting for something riveting to happen, but the ending of episode five was quite anti-climactic and cliche to me. The last episode was rather rushed as well. I think it bothered me how vague and evasive Ritsu was. Sure, Fumiya was the one holding back the truth, but somehow Ritsu felt much less genuine. I can't quite explain it. The break-up also didn't make sense to me. I needed more context, I guess. Anyway, the acting was good. Their chemistry was sort of on and off to me. I felt it, yet I didn't. I felt the same way about the kisses and intimate scenes. They didn't feel forced, and yet they didn't really feel natural either. Overall, it was fine. I don't feel any particular positive or negative emotions toward it.

    It was fairly lackluster. The plot was unoriginal. The writing was not great. Many things were left unresolved. The acting was nothing more than fine. I only thought the second couple's acting was natural. I didn't feel any chemistry. I didn't like the characters. Only Do Yoon. Anyway, after continuously harassing Se Heon, Joo Ha called Do Yoon dirty for liking him. Then Taeyi also said nasty things to Se Heon, and he even sexually harassed him. Yes, both Se Heon and Do Yoon kissed their crushes without consent. That shouldn't be condoned. The problem was that Taeyi and Joo Ha only got mad because they were kissed by other boys. That's just homophobia. Whether internalized or not, there is no excuse. After all that hatefulness both Joo Ha and Tae Yi suddenly were okay with it all. It was uncomfortable and made no sense. Lastly, I just need to mention how odd it was that Tae Yi liked someone who reminded him of his deceased brother.

    In the first story, one of them was due to serve their mandatory military service. They went on one last trip before he was to leave. It was cute. There isn't much I can say. The second one was about.. the estrus phase of the estrous cycle? A human male's estrus phase of the estrous cycle... You know, the phase where the female animal is in heat. It was basically a Wattpad story. It wasn't supposed to be taken very seriously, I think.

    It was just pretty basic. The directing and writing weren't very good. The acting and intimacy/kisses were good, though. That said, it didn't make up for the boring plot. Also, I didn't really like Lee Jun. He was so bland. Why would THREE amazing men want him? I'm sorry, but seriously. Hyun Jae was my favorite. He was so unproblematic and nice. This series would have been more interesting if he and Simeon actually ended up together, and it wasn't just hinted at. Lastly, what was the point of the "Fiancée"? It was so pointless. I'm also pretty sure it was somewhat offensive of her to call Lee Jun Unnie all the time.

    Right, Kurata attempted to rape Tozaki, not once, but TWICE and Tozaki still preferred him over Miyata? Why? Also, how dare Kurata get jealous when they weren't even together yet. Tozaki didn't know that Kurata liked him for more than his body, so what did Kurata expect. He didn't say anything until the very end. He was just a coward, and Tozaki deserved better. Tozaki never actually did any of the things Kurata accused him of doing, by the way.

    I'll start off by stating that this film is half an hour long, not an hour. I have no idea why it says so here. The acting was on point. They are both really talented and successful actors now, and it is well deserved. There was no awkwardness between them, and one of the scenes was quite intense. They were just so cute. Min Su's mom wasn't accepting, but she wasn't getting between them either. We can only assume she got over it. I also appreciated that Min Su never had any intention to end things with Seok Yi when his mom caught them. They stayed strong till the end. The plot was generic but not bad. There is no reason not to watch this, basically. Also, I'd like to mention that Je Hoon, still to this day, proudly speaks of his role in this. When he does, he also never feels the need to assure others that he isn't gay. I don't know. It just feels nice to watch a gay movie where you know the actors are supportive and not money-driven.

    IIIIII..... Hmmm... Honestly, at this point, I'm getting too tired to write all that much about each series. It was fine as a series. It had its moments. That said, I wasn't particularly thrilled about it. There were some very annoying characters and silly moments that simply tried to drag it out. As a BL, it made me feel close to nothing. I felt like they had a cute friendship, and that was about it. Even the confession lacked romance to me. I guess we can call it very, very subdued romantic interest. I'm sure some people enjoy that. Not me. I don't know. Maybe watch it just because Issei is the best. I'm serious.

    Oh, the potential. So I really liked the main characters. They had chemistry. The actors did well. The first five or so episodes were thrilling, and I looked forward to the next episodes every week, but then in the latter half of the series, it felt dragged out and repetitive. I honestly found the story a bit confusing. The relationship between Shiro and Ichiro stayed in this constant grey one of, are they in love or not? Shiro was confirmed to be bisexual, and Ichiro definitely seemed very interested in him. That said, they also hinted at Ichiro being into Chika. A woman. She was nice. That just wasn't what I came here for. In the end, no one got together. They did stay living together, though. So, basically, they became the definition of tHeY'rE jUsT rOoMmAtEs. We mostly saw Shiro being seductive with the prime minister. Anyway, they seemed to be teasing the possibility of another season. I would like that, but only if it will actually lead somewhere. If you enjoy watching very subtle romance and/or crime-themed dramas, then I guess it's worth a watch.

    Mon and Oak did it again. Although this wasn't my favorite from wayufilm, Mon and Oak never disappoint me with their acting skills. Especially Mon is good at provoking my emotions. The story was a little rushed, I felt. I mean, it was only thirty minutes long. I didn't get why we were introduced to Neung's girlfriend when Neung himself never spoke of her. Did that mean he still hadn't broken up with her when he got together with Tui? It just seemed unnecessary for her to be a part of this.

    I was really excited about this at first. My hopes were high.  Somewhere halfway through, or so, I realized how generic and somewhat boring the story was. It wasn't bad. It was just underwhelming. I didn't see much chemistry between the leads. It was so PG that I almost wouldn't have guessed they liked each other. I don't think it was the actor's fault. They did what they could with the script they were given. I found Ida a little too bland and emotionless. Aoki was a little too expressive. I didn't dislike them, though. Anyway, Ida essentially outed Aoki to his friends. I know Ida meant no harm, but he didn't have Aoki's consent. Aoki didn't want others to know. Ida should have respected that. That said, Aoki shouldn't have gotten into a relationship with Ida when he clearly wasn't ready. He was quite selfish when it came to love. So, about there not being a kiss. It wasn't surprising at all. I don't think that there always needs to be a kiss. Cherry Magic is a great example. I believed in their love for each other despite the absence of a kiss. That's what made it so great. In this, I needed a kiss to make me even slightly believe in their love for each other. Aoki clearly wanted to kiss Ida in prior episodes. It just felt off. Lastly, that episode with the substitute teacher was weird. They didn't have to explain themselves to him. What Aoki said about only liking Ida also rubbed me the wrong way. He might have meant that Ida was the only person he liked, not the only guy, but it was still unnecessary having him say that.

    Censored romance.

    Yu Zhi and Yue Lou were amazing together. They clearly loved each other very much. Yu Zhi is one of the best characters ever. He was just the cutest. The story was quite frustrating at times. There was a lot of repetition, but they kept it interesting for the most part. I think it's also important to mention that Yue Lou didn't have bipolar disorder. It was more likely PTSD. The last ten or so episodes were difficult to get through. Yue Lou went through so much. He lost just about everything. They really enjoyed killing off characters. It's a bad idea to get attached to any of the characters because then they'll die immediately. Some deaths just happened, and then we never heard about it again. The second couple didn't really matter to me. They were obviously never meant to be. One of them found out something about the other that made him resentful. He hated him and wanted him dead, but he sort of also still loved him, which most have been quite painful for him. Therefore, the love turned into more of an obsession. I can't say too much about them because it would spoil the entire story. Either way, one guy was an absolute psycho, and the other was kind and deserved better. I was glad that there was an actually likable female lead for once, and no, she was not a love interest.

    No kiss.

    Unsatisfying ending.

    I mostly liked this because of Yamato. I can't lie. He was so sweet. Sure, he was a fool sometimes, but who cares? Overall, anyone would be lucky to have him. Anyway, Kakeru, I was less excited about. He wasn't bad. I'm just tired of every Japanese BL couple having an insecure and intimacy-terrified guy as one of the two. I'm sure people like that exist, but why does it have to be every fucking time? It basically ruins any possibility of there being chemistry, in my opinion. The plot was very basic. Sweet and mostly drama-free, but basic. The acting was good. The kiss was okay. Not the best, but also not just smash-and-freeze. I guess I just had hoped that there would finally be a Japanese BL that could do intimacy properly. It's not surprising at this point, but nonetheless disappointing. The hugs were nice, though. I would recommend it just for Yamato. Who's going to stop me?

    It was a fairly straightforward and drama-free BL. There wasn't much to dislike. I liked the couple. The acting was good. So, yeah, it was a sweet and short BL that, for once, didn't feel rushed. It wasn't mind-blowingly good or anything like that. It was just enjoyable. There were technically two kisses, but you really couldn't see whether their lips touched or not either time. Japanese BL's still have a long way to go when it comes to intimacy. That said, in this BL, I didn't really need a kiss. I thought they were cute even when they just spoke with each other or held hands.

    Was the plot logical all the time? Absolutely not, but man, it's been a while since I was genuinely excited to tune into a BL every week. It was over-the-top, but at least I was entertained. Most BL's are unoriginal and bore me. For once, something different was brought to the table. That said, I can't ignore the toxicity of all the relationships. Kinn assaulted Porsche. Vegas tried to assault Porsche, kidnapped, tortured, and dehumanized Pete. Kim was in a league of his own. Somehow his treatment of Porchay bothered me the most. The only reason why this didn't turn me off completely was that I didn't feel like they tried to romanticize it. Yes, it did end in romance for most of the couples, but we also got to see all the ugly bits. It wasn't easy for any of the characters. This is a BL for those who can handle more mature content, such as nudity, murder, assault, and whatever else goes down in the mafia world. It was only natural for there to be displayed wrong behavior in a series such as this. The acting was phenomenal. Apo, especially, is such a talented actor. The chemistry was through the roof. The only couple that didn't excite me that much was Kim and Porchay. It felt too fast-paced. I liked most of the characters. They felt fleshed out, and a lot of them weren't definitively good or bad. I enjoyed that. The last episode did feel underwhelming to me. I felt like there was so much more to the story. Hopefully, we get another season.

    There were kisses and sex scenes.

    The acting was mostly very believable. There were only a few times it felt a tiny bit unnatural. This was not a couple that had a lot of passion or intimacy. That we saw, at least. But throughout the series, you could tell they slowly fell even more for each other and got to understand each other better. Especially Shiro had a lot of character development. It was nice to see him slowly get more comfortable with his sexuality and his relationship with Kenji. The story was innovative, in my opinion. Although they essentially made food in every episode, it didn't feel boring to me. It was kind of cute to see Shiro be so passionate about something. Even though they did fight, they always ended up communicating. Communication is the foundation of a healthy and long-lasting relationship. Overall it felt pretty realistic to me, and I enjoyed it. Also, it was nice to have a BL depict a relationship between mature adults.

    No kiss.

    Sadly, I didn't care much for this. I thought it was weirdly paced and all over the place. The "gangsters" were rather pathetic. I don't understand why it's so hard to make a proper crime-related BL. The writing was just, in general, lacking. When they pulled the amnesia shit, I just gave up on it. It's so lazy and just another way to drag a series out. I didn't really care about the characters, either. The main couple had some sweet moments, but I got bored of them halfway through. I also think I should mention the fact that Zong Yi was a literal minor when he and Ze Rui first got involved. Weird. The second couple annoyed me. I was just this constant back-and-forth. It doesn't interest me. To be honest, I was most intrigued by the boss and his lover or whatever he was. I crave more BL's featuring mature couples. The last episode was pretty tame and somewhat of a let-down. I mostly thought the acting was good, but Taro, who played one of the main characters, had quite a limited amount of expressions. So, yeah. It wasn't bad, but it could have been so much more.

    There were kisses and steamy scenes.

    I only made it through three episodes before I gave up. It was really quite bad. The plot was nonexistent. The acting was not great. The only one who was tolerable was P. The characters weren't likable. BeBoy was a fucking manchild. The twins looked dead on the inside and were boring too. P could have been a somewhat interesting character. When he wasn't being moody he seemed kind of nice. Anyway, after the twins licked each other's nipples I was out. That was it for me. It didn't help that the end of episode three was basically just porn.

    I think there was an important message in there somewhere. "We are here. We will be here forever." That was the best line in the entire film, and it was also the very last one. And it's true. Gay people have and always will exist, and straight people will have to deal with that. Anyway, the story itself was a little chaotic and silly. I really respected Young Ho's decision. Gyeong Jun cheated on him, but he was still willing to give up his life for him. Sure, Young Ho wasn't great, but he did a good thing. The acting was good. The kisses were realistic.

    Like most others, I watched this for Pete and Kao. All the other storylines weren't worth watching. Anyway, I can't say they had the most healthy relationship. They had a rough start. Pete was quite the asshole. Kao, in turn, was, well, a doormat. Despite all the cliches and fighting, they were cute after they had worked through their indifferences. I don't want to talk much about Mint. I will admit Pete was wrong too, but she outed him, and that's much worse than anything he ever did to her. The one I felt the worst for was Sun. Luckily, we know now that he got get himself a boyfriend too. The best part about this was Pete's dad and Kao's mom. Also, I was pleasantly surprised that Pete said Kao was the FIRST guy he had ever liked instead of saying he was the ONLY guy. It makes a huge difference. They also didn't assign any heteronormative gender roles to either of them. Lastly, I want to mention Kiss The Series. You'll be disappointed if you watch it for Pete and Kao. They weren't significant at all in that. Skimming through the entire series to find BL crumbs is a waste of time.

    The acting was okay. The chemistry was there. Their last kiss was probably one of the best I've seen so far in a Korean BL. All that said, it was just rather lackluster in terms of the plot. They managed to make a story about vampires tame. Also, don't get me started on the ending. Nothing about that was satisfying. I understood that there was no way for this story to end with both of them alive, but they could at least have let him find the ring. I know this only makes sense if you have watched it, but still.

    It was the usual. There wasn't really anything special about it. It was too short. The ending was lackluster. The characters were confusing. Takashi mostly seemed like a guy not to be trusted, but then sometimes he seemed very caring. I never knew whether he was about to mess with Akihiro's feelings or not. Akihiro also had fleeting feelings. I just didn't know where I had them. The two men who basically only existed to make Akihiro jealous were a totally unnecessary addition. Anyway, the acting was good. They mostly had great chemistry. They also had a rather tasteful sex scene compared to the many that came before. I just thought they kind of lost their chemistry in the final episode. I expected more of them as a couple. Overall, it had potential, but they took it in a direction that simply didn't appeal to me all that much.

    How did they manage to make THIRTEEN episodes about literally nothing? There was no cohesion, no actual plot, no climax, and no end goal. There was the food element, but OMG, please spare me. I don't know how I made it through, honestly. Some of the episodes were nothing but filler. The acting was fine. The characters were either boring, annoying, or both. Namning was in a league of her own. I don't think there has ever been a more unlikeable character in a BL. She could have gotten Lukchup killed, yet he didn't want to press charges? That's not being forgiving. That's being stupid. She was incredibly dangerous. I didn't like any of the couples. Lukchup's only personality traits were being either shy or scared. I didn't find it cute. I found it nauseating. Ram was not the worst, but he was way too passive. Together they had zero chemistry. Paitong was a handful. Why would you be that possessive of your friend? He really got on my nerves. It took way too long for him to clear the air and chill. I thought Sky and Paitong could have been an interesting coupling, but there was no indication that they liked each other until the very last episode. Super, Kitty, Pangchie, and Titan were all pointless characters to me. They were just a bunch of straight people and then one stereotypical gay person. Also, WTF was up with Jirachin? He purposefully made people believe he was in love with his own BIOLOGICAL brother. I have no words. Yes, some people will find this sweet, but it wasn't for me.

Then there's the whole soulmate crap. I just don't care. Don't even get me started on the time skip. It's nothing but lazy writing. The last episode was especially stupid. I didn't care for the characters, either. Lomfon and Saengthian were such a pointless couple. I honestly would've preferred it if neither of the characters existed. Lomfon was nothing but a pain in my ass. The main couple meant nothing to me. I guess some people could find some value in this, but I can't.

    So, I did think there were good moments. The writing was mostly nice. There was chemistry. The acting was good. I really think Sea has improved. I'm just so tired of the predictability of the eleventh episode being a shit show. Not to mention the typical catch them at the last minute in the airport, then realize you were too late, only to find out they never planned to leave anyway. How cliche. I also didn't really like Day all that much. He was so wishy-washy about his feelings the whole way through. Honestly, he was the one who was insensitive towards Mhok. I strongly disliked how they made it seem like it was Mhok who did something wrong to Day all the time. Mhok deserved better. I also think it was disappointing that they had the whole eye donation thing actually happen. Of course, I understand wanting his vision back, but I don't assume it was very realistic. Overall, I don't think it was bad. I just needed more from it. I also needed Day to own up to the way he treated Mhok.

    It wasn't perfect, but I actually ended up enjoying it more than I thought I would. I liked the characters. I liked the acting. The main couple had good chemistry. The plot was nothing new, but it was better than some high school drama shit. Sometimes, it was choppy, and the scenes seemed off. The second couple also disappointed me. Thaenthai's character didn't make much sense to me at times. He really was horrible in the first half. It was also weird how they refused to let them have a proper kiss.

    I really did not get along with Akira, but I loved Yuuki. I mean, I didn't consistently dislike Akira, but he treated Yuuki so wrong at times. They were so good together, and they had a lot of chemistry. Akira was just too selfish. He, at one point, chose to live safe but unhappily. He totally disregarded Yuuki's feelings and his own feelings too. He also fucked over Honoka and wasted her time. Both Honoka and Yuuki deserved better. In the end, I hoped they wouldn't get back together. I had hoped Yuuki would have respected himself and found someone that would appreciate him to the fullest. Akira's reason for breaking up with him was so stupid. I almost completely stopped caring about him. Another thing was how Akira never asked for permission from Yuuki to kiss him, at least at the start. Overall, he didn't seem to realize/care how Yuuki felt. I loved Yuuki's mom, Akira's sister, and Akira's dad, though.

    Something about this didn't sit right with me. First of all, the timeline was very confusing to me. When Shou said he had seen Light in the ally, did he mean before what happened with the man who beat Light? I mean, I don't know. The BDSM part only happened at the very start and was never brought up again. So I guess it was the client's kink and not Light's? Light's stepdad got away with his crimes, I guess? The part where Light tried to explain to Shou that he had been assaulted was heartbreaking and upsetting. Shou's reaction was horrible. Unfortunately, I think a lot of people assume their partners cheated even though they were assaulted. Shou definitely did just that. So, to me, he didn't deserve Light. I was proud of Light for reporting the assault, though. Also, Shou saying that Light was his, even if it wasn't in an aggressive manner, disgusted me. I don't think the whole possessing someone is cute. He's a person, not an object. Light already had quite apparent attachment issues and depended too much on Shou. That didn't seem healthy to me. People who have gone through so much trauma need to seek help before they get into a relationship. He was vulnerable, and anyone could take advantage of that. Anyway, The acting was okay. The intimate scenes were also okay. The message was off, though.

    There were kisses and steamy scenes.

    If So Hee hadn't been such a big part of the series, I probably would have rated it even higher. Although she somewhat had her redemption, I'm still fed up with "evil" female characters. Anyway, I loved the way they handled the issues the characters went through. They all had such amazing character development. Da On became his own person and not just a doormat. Tae Kyung learned the value of friendship and love. Shin Woo learned how to express his emotions better. Shin Woo was a little bit confusing at first, but he ended up being so loveable. He honestly deserved the world. You could really tell how much he loved Tae Kyung so selflessly. I was happy to see that they loved each other openly as well. Neither of them was ashamed. I was also happily surprised to see they actually kissed. The kisses weren't bad either. They were somewhere in between Color Rush and To My Star. So not under-whelming nor amazing. I will definitely re-watch this now that all the episodes are out. I also desperately want a second season because we didn't get enough of Shin Woo and Tae Kyung together. I guess they did say this was the story of Tae Kyung's first love and not his current one, though. The acting was pretty good. It wasn't mind-blowing, but that wasn't really required for these particular roles anyway. Lastly, I have to say I was left with quite a few questions. Mostly about Shin Woo. Like Shin Woo's past and him being bullied? Also, I wonder how Tae Kyung really felt about Da On. He didn't really give him closure.

    It was refreshing to have a more masculine character be openly gay and a more feminine character be closeted. BL's are mostly portrayed the other way around. There were so many little things that made this extra special, in my opinion. I particularly enjoyed the scene where Karl just let go and was at peace with himself, even if it was just for a moment. They had great chemistry. It took a while for them to get together, and even at the very end, Karl still hadn't fully accepted himself, sadly.

    Zi Yan's actions were quite inconsistent. Sometimes he did and said sweet things, and other times he was very distant and indifferent. Why did he feel the need to pretend that he wasn't as into Mai Ding as he was? He had no problem gushing over him to his friend. That April Fool's Day joke was not funny at all. I would have been enraged if he did that to me, but Mai Ding was over it in a millisecond. It just served no purpose other than making Mai Ding miserable. Zi Yan kept saying he didn't want to hurt Mai Ding, but that "prank" sure did, though. Pranks are supposed to be funny. What he did was just cruel. Zi Yan's sister was disgusting. She tried to rape Mai Ding in an attempt to make him stop liking her brother, I guess? Zi Yan stopped her. He then proceeded to make fun of Mai Ding for almost getting raped by a woman. He called him weak and such. Men almost getting raped is so funny, apparently. Mai Ding's parents tried to force him into getting married and making grandchildren. Reproduction and letting the family name live on are not the sole reasons why someone should have kids. They also glossed over Mai Ding possibly getting abused by his mom. All that said, Mai Ding and Zi Yan's relationship felt natural most of the time. They had great kisses and chemistry. The pacing was a little off at times, though.

    I don't know. It was boring at times, but I didn't dislike it. I did feel like the last two episodes felt different. They weren't as silly as the rest. The last episode was mostly underwhelming. The beach scenes, except for the handholding one, were rather a waste of time. Also, the way Nont got constantly stood up. Honestly, it broke my heart. Kaitoon came off as this perfect and sweet being, but him treating Nont like that proved otherwise. Valen was immature and a self-proclaimed troublemaker. I mean, the first time we met him, he was threatening Kaitoon with a knife. I'm not sure why Kaitoon would choose him over Nont. Well, Valen was perhaps a bit more exciting. King and Peat's story felt misplaced. They had chemistry for sure, but we weren't given enough reason to care about them. I hope they weren't insinuating that King and Ice would become a thing. Not only were King and Peat finally communicating, but Peat was also going to move back in. Not to mention the actor playing Ice is FOURTEEN. No, thank you. The actor playing King is twenty-one. Please, don't make it weird. Anyway, I think if they really wanted to make this good, it could be. The acting was pretty good, and, as I mentioned, the couples had chemistry.

    Well then. What a waste of time. All the couples went to shit. I started not caring for any of the characters. Nont was the only one who deserved better. He was so nice till the very end. Valen was more unlikable this time around. He was too possessive and irrational. He also used Panggo. Kaitoon sucked too. He really recreated the date Valen took him on but with Nont. What did he do then? Reject Nont. Girl. Peat and King were a mess. Just why? I genuinely think they insinuated that King and Ice would get together. The new couple was pointless. There was no conclusion. Frankly, I have no idea why they thought that was necessary. The ending was confusing. I'm almost scared to say that they seem to be planning another season. There was only one moment where I actually liked the acting. It was when King discovered what Peat had been up to.

    Kengkla and Technic were gross. Technic helped Kengkla rape Techno. The whole thing was treated as a joke. Kengkla even said that Techno took advantage of HIM. Most of Tin and Can's kisses were non-consensual. Tin was very rude. His situation did not excuse his behavior. Can saying being gay was disgusting made no sense. He confused me. Tin and Can's ending sucked, but it did make sense. Tum forced himself on Tar. That killed any wish I had of them getting together. Tum was just an asshole. I thought Pond was a good friend, but he was too perverted. He also suggested that Ae should take advantage of Pete. That was probably a joke, though. Chompoo's entire personality was falling for a guy she just met. Lemon was yet another shipper in a BL that I didn't need. Women in BL's truly are written horribly. I liked how honest Ae was, but he needed to understand that not everyone was like him. Pete had no right to push Ae to be with Chompoo. Ae told Pete that he didn't like her like that. Pete tried brainwashing Ae into thinking he should be with a girl. Ae and Pete mostly communicated well. When they fought, they made up fairly quickly. Ae was too possessive/jealous. Their chemistry was great at first, but it fizzled out. The locker scene was dubious. If Pete had kept saying he didn't want to do it, would Ae have stopped? I liked that Pete was tall and muscular, yet he was the feminine one. They also acknowledged that bisexuals exist. The acting was okay.

    This was even worse than the first season. The storyline was so messed up, nothing made sense. Tin and Can had no chemistry whatsoever. The whole part about Ae and Pete was so tiring and unnecessary. Techno ended up "falling" for Kengkla, even though he had been taken advantage of by him. Why? Just why? The kisses between Tin and Can were some of the most awkward I have ever seen. It looked like Can would have rather died. Tum and Tar's part might as well have not been a thing, and that saddens me to say because I was excited to see more of Earth. The only couple I liked and stayed for was Tul and Gonhin.

    Meh. It was cliche and predictable. The reveal of the stalker was anti-climactic at best. There was more of a focus on Ji Woo's crush on Yu Na than his eventual crush on Ro A. It was super rushed. The last episode was infuriating. Ro A acted so out of character. Frankly, he was an ass toward Ji Woo. We could have gotten such cute moments, but instead, they wanted us to suffer until the very last minute. Hyun Jun was the best part of this. He is a great actor. Tae Hwan was quite wooden, in my opinion. I didn't feel much chemistry, either. The kiss was stiiiiiff. Yu Na was great too. I honestly thought she deserved Ji Woo more than Ro A. Lastly, the teacher and student straight couple was such a waste of the limited time there was for Ji Woo and Ro A's relationship to develop properly. It was also just gross.

    It had basically nothing to do with the first season. Ji Woo and Lee Ro A had an insanely insignificant cameo, and that was it. The main couple in this season was fairly bland. They did have chemistry, but their kisses were laughable. The other two couples were far more advanced in their intimacy. I also thought both Lee Hyun and Kim An were rather boring characters. It took me a while, but Joo Hyuk and Sung Min ended up being my favorites. Sung Min was cute, and Joo Hyuk was a bit naughty. I also ended up liking Ma Roo a lot, Min Woo not as much. At first, I thought he was sweet and innocent, but then he called Ma Roo a slut and pretended to date a girl just to make Ma Roo jealous. That's fucked up. That's not to say I didn't like them together, though. I just didn't expect him to be like that. Anyway, sadly, it was quite amateurish at times. You could literally see the microphone in at least two different scenes. I also caught J-min looking into the camera a few times. That said, The acting was actually good overall.

    I would have liked to rate it higher because the acting was good, they had chemistry, the kisses weren't absolute shit, the characters were flawed yet likable, and the story was different than usual. So, why didn't I? The plot was fresh, but it was also hard to follow at times and sometimes downright incomprehensible. I didn't get much of the final episode. I was just happy they were together. Overall, I'm pretty satisfied, though. I can probably look past most of it.

    It was less problematic than Mame's previous works, but there were still many icky moments. As always with Mame, she had to use the wife thing. I fucking repel it. I can't believe she and many others still get away with shit like that. Rain and Phayu's relationship, in general, felt very uncomfortable. Rain was so childlike and dense. I felt like Phayu took advantage of that. Sky and Prapai kind of bored me. They were less problematic than Phayu and Rain, that much is for sure. I can't help but feel weird about the trauma aspect of their story, though. I simply don't like how Mame always manages to romanticize such things. Her mind is troubling, to say the least. Of course, it's okay to portray trauma in movies and BL's, but she does it in a way that makes it feel almost desirable. Like as if most victims/survivors will be sent a guardian angel like Prapai. I'm aware that I'm overly critical of Mame, but the woman freaks me out. Anyway, the acting was fine. It felt somewhat stiff/forced at times. The chemistry was good with both couples. It was just the writing that made it seem less so. Lastly, the ending was so abrupt.

    To be honest, my rating is mostly based on the acting and the couple's chemistry because they had plenty of that. I was actually quite surprised since they're in a group together and all that. I didn't expect them to commit. Everything else was average. The plot was meh. Been there, done that. At least Tammy wasn't evil like most other women in BL's. I wasn't particularly fond of the characters. Phumjai was quite childish. The role Offroad played in Our Days was so much more charming and captivating. Had he played that kind of character in this, I would have been much more excited about this series. Phojai was insufferable. Why would you care about your brother's business to that degree? It was weird. He was also a horrible boyfriend. Tag wasn't much better. He was a bad friend. He helped Phojai spy on Phumjai, his friend. Yang was fine. He had flaws, sure, but he didn't bother me much. Overall, there was room for improvement, but it wasn't offensive.

    There were kisses and a steamy scene.

    For such a short series the romance was super dragged out. I actually thought it was never going to happen. They also just had no chemistry. I was surprised that there were actual kisses because of the fact that JM is an idol. That said, they were hardly kisses. It was more like lips touching repeatedly. Anyway, the writing was bad. Because it was bad I couldn't tell whether the acting was good or not. I could tell that the characters were shit, though. The plot was completely unremarkable, cliche, and non-sensical. The title had nothing to do with the series. There were literally no cats at all. The whole language thing was so fucking silly. I especially loved how they sometimes suddenly could understand each other without the in-ear. Overall, it was a mess.

    Towards the second half of the series, I was a little bored, to be honest. The story just wasn't that interesting. This was pretty gay, actually, despite the ban, especially that wedding scene at the end. There was no real conclusion in regards to the plot, though. At least no one died?

    I really tried to watch everything and not skip the straight couples, but I got bored with them, honestly. I liked the older straight couple at first. I thought they were cute, but then that too went downhill fast. They advertised the BL couple as being a bigger part of this than they were. They took up less than three hours of the series. Mark and Ou Wen had a rough start. I did not like Mark one bit initially. I mean, he exhibited homophobic behavior. Weirdly as time went on, he became the best character. It was too bad that they refused to let him be bi/pan, though. Apparently, his only options were "hot mamas" or Ou Wen. Of course, we all know that people can only be straight or gay, right? Or maybe it was about them thinking Mark would cheat on Ou Wen if he were bi. For some reason, certain people think bi people are promiscuous and want both a guy and a girl at the same time. That usually isn't the case. Bi people seek love too, you know? Also, it was interesting that Mark was more open and sure of their relationship than Ou Wen. I understood that Ou Wen was scared of being hurt by dating a "straight" guy. At the end of the day, though, he was just quite cowardly. I felt weird about Ou Wen telling Joanna what to do with her body. Having a child is not something to take lightly. It's a huge responsibility. He also stopped her for such selfish reasons. Anyway, I did think they were cute, but their story felt so unfinished.

    Honestly, I was into it at first, but Lee Jun really got on my nerves. Yes, Ha Ram was quite insistent and hard to shake off, but at least he was a genuinely good guy. He was obviously very determined and into Lee Jun. Not that I can say that I understand why. Lee Jun was so cold and closed-off, even after kissing and sleeping with Ha Ram. He was only kind towards Ha Ram for like one episode. The way that Lee Jun allowed Ha Ram to suffer when he could have just been honest pained me. It's always uncomfortable to see only one person in a relationship putting in the effort to fix problems. Ha Ram always had to mend things, even when he hadn't done anything. The whole thing with Lee Jun's ex was just overall pointless and a waste of time. I want to see Ha Ram with someone else, seriously. Anyway, the acting was good and so were the kisses. At least we had that.

    As much as I adore War and Yin together, this series simply does not portray a healthy and desirable relationship. The whole thing basically starts with rape. Vee took advantage of Mark when he was drunk and unable to consent. Then there's the ordeal with Ploy and Vee. Yes, Ploy cheated too, but that didn't give Vee the right to do the same. He also didn't even know that Ploy was cheating when he started pursuing Mark. None of the characters were really likable either. Both Mark and Vee were unhealthily jealous and immature. It was just so messy. I also highly disliked the way Mark treated Nuea. So why didn't I rate this lower? As I mentioned, Yin and War have great chemistry. They actually seemed like a couple, like they were supposed to. Most BL couples fail to convince us that they genuinely like each other, which they should at least be able to do. Also, the acting. We all know War is a great actor, but Yin really surprised me. He had significantly improved. Their interactions felt very natural. I hope they can play a couple in a better-written series someday.

    I liked it better than the first one. That was probably because Khao and Nut had better chemistry than Khao and Pete. Actually, they didn't mention Pete in this at any point. It made me feel like the first movie was pointless. I don't find sexual harassment funny it made me pretty uncomfortable. There were also quite a few plot holes. For some reason, I felt like the kiss was a little too long? There were a lot of crotch shots and also some almost full-on nudity.

    There was so much wrong with this. Where to start? Forcing someone into loving you is not cute. As if it wasn't already enough that Ko even considered using the sacred water, he actually did it. Just no. We never got to know if the water actually did anything, but if it did, that would mean Teng never liked Ko, right? Why would you date someone that might have only liked you because of some sacred water? Ko was just toxic in general. He was incredibly selfish. He purposefully pretended to date the guy that his brother liked to make Teng jealous. Teng wasn't great either. He cheated on his girlfriend, something she definitely didn't deserve. Teng also slept with Ko when he was drunk. Then there's Tak. I wasn't sure whether both he and Sek were drunk when they slept together, but still, why were the couples only getting together when they were drunk? That is such a wrong message to send. Tak also "raped" a ghost. Huh? I mean, I don't know what else to call it. He threatened to rape her, and then she proceeded to tell him to do it, so was it rape? Also, why would you threaten to rape someone? At that point, he was also in love with Sek. I didn't get why it was necessary to feature that in the series. It wasn't funny, and it didn't fit the theme at all. Ko's friends were horrible. They were the typical gays-are-predators characters. Once again, not funny. Why can't we have openly gay characters in BL's that aren't disgusting? Lastly, the singing parts were just dreadful to me. The only good things about this series were Ko and Sek's father and the surprisingly not cringey kisses.

    At least now we know that the water didn't do shite. That's good. This whole series was the two main couples breaking up over misunderstandings and then getting back together repeatedly. None of them trusted each other at all. They always jumped to conclusions, and the misunderstood ones never tried to explain what really happened. They were also quick to spit out the let's-break-up sentence over the most trivial matters. It was the most cliche and idiotic BL I've watched in a while. There shouldn't still be such toxic portrayals of gay relationships, honestly. Why can't we have second seasons of BL's that are just cute and unproblematic? They always create unnecessary drama and ruin the relationships for it all to not really matter at the end. We also had the typical girl that tried to tear the gay couple apart. How surprising. The replacement of Sek bothered me. The new actor was okay. I just preferred the old Sek. They changed him in this. Virgo, who played Teng, seemed very much like he couldn't care less. His acting in this left much to be desired. Overall, this season was unnecessary. If you can sit through the torture that is almost the entire series (especially the singing parts), then the few cute couple scenes are worth it, I guess.

    This was one of the first, if not the first, BL I ever watched. Compared to the ones that come out nowadays, it wasn't amazing. It has a special place in my heart, though. I never liked the mistreatment of their girlfriends and the stereotypical feminine gays, though. Sure, the girls weren't great. Yu was quite annoying, and Aim was manipulative. That said, no matter how confused you are about your sexuality or how bothersome your girlfriend is, it's still not okay to cheat. Also, I did like how most of the students stood up for the gays. Anyway, Phun and Noh were incredibly adorable together. They were young, so the kiss scenes weren't great, but when they cuddled, held each other's hands, or such, their chemistry shone. Their kisses weren't bad either, though. Compared to some series that came out after this, they were actually okay. All the straight couples in this were dreadful. Most of them were just awful towards each other. There were, in general, a lot of side characters. Maybe, too many. Pang also bothered me. This series did suffer from a lot of fetishizing characters. I mean, Pang being so interested in her brother's love life was weird. I'd say the acting was okay. Not bad nor good. Some scenes were better than others. Overall, this first season was chaotic, but I treasure it. It paved the way for all the following BL's.

    This season was better than the first one. The story and their relationship developed a lot more. Love Sick was what started the whole BL craze, so I will forever be grateful for its existence. In this one, there were four BL couples. Phun and Noh were cuter than ever, mostly. The jealousy and misunderstanding aspect was overused, though. At least they handled the girlfriend problem well. I didn't even think Aim was that bad. She wasn't great, but she wasn't the only one who cheated. Plus, she didn't really get between them. All the other BL couples were quite underdeveloped. Om and Mick did get together, I'd say. Win and Per were pending. The possibility of Earn and Pete getting together was insinuated at the very end. There were way too many characters and unfinished storylines. That could be because they originally planned to make another season. Also, the straight couples and the girl drama got dreadful fast. Jeed literally attempted murder. There were quite a few tropes and not ideal messages in this, but compared to some more recent BL series, it was fairly progressive for its time.

    Well, I expected too much. This was not good. This entire plot was fucked up from the beginning. They didn't even have chemistry to save it just a little bit. They kissed well, but their characters were so bad I couldn't possibly find it riveting. Turbo didn't fit this role whatsoever. At first, I thought I just didn't like Anda, but I soon realized it was mostly his acting that threw me off. Kaownah was fine. His character was awful, though. He at no point cared about consent. He literally made out with Anda when he was unconscious. I have never been so uncomfortable. Bank was the best character. He was definitely a better choice than Ryo. Tee and Jet were a weird addition. They were hardly seen together, and then we got THAT scene. At least they had some chemistry. I'm sad. I was so excited that Kaownah and Turbo finally got a series, and THIS was what we received.

    I have basically nothing good to say. It was really bad. The characters were awful. I only liked Night and maybe Peace. That's it. Day and Itt were insufferable. Day was abusive, overly jealous/possessive, and manipulative. Itt was so incredibly childish, annoying, and also fairly manipulative. They were horrible together. It was actually painful to watch most of their interactions. The villain was laughable. The side couples were underdeveloped, to say the least. Mac and Nan were an even worse couple than the main one. I could honestly keep going for hours about how bad this was. I'll just leave it here. Actually, lastly, I don't think the actors had a fair chance at showing their abilities with this script. I have seen most of them in other series, and they weren't bad in those. I just don't think it's fair to judge them based on this. The only one who seemed like a genuinely bad actor was the villain guy.

    Oh, I so very much dislike people who cheat and people who think they can have both the girl and the guy. Xin Yu was selfish. It shouldn't be surprising that your girlfriend breaks up with you if you cheat on her. I'm glad Xiao En respected herself enough to end things. Honestly, Wei Jia and Xin Yu deserved each other. Xin Yu was a cheater, and Wei Jia was okay with kissing someone that wasn't single. We didn't actually know if any of them ended up together, but the boys probably did.

    I wanted to like this more than I did. I think the acting was good. The characters were mostly likable. That said, even though I did like Ye Chan, he was a little too over-the-top at times for my taste. He was really cute and nice otherwise. The plot wasn't anything special. Some scenes were somewhat out of place. I also just couldn't feel that much of a spark. I wasn't convinced Seon Yul felt the same way as Ye Chan. It felt a bit rushed.

    The plot was underwhelming. I skipped so many scenes. It just got boring. The product placement was ridiculous.  The script was cringy at times. There was a super creepy predatory trans character. How predictable. The acting from Folk was pretty good. Best and Gameplay were also okay. They just weren't as good as usual. The rest of the cast lacked. Folk and Gameplay had decent chemistry.  Their kisses were also good. That's about the only positives there were. I will also say that I found First somewhat toxic. He was a little forceful at one point.
