My 150+ BLs - completed

Who knew a story about 8 high school boys could bring me so many tears, laughs and smiles. 

When I think of this drama I think of warmth, love, friendship, dreams, comfort, coming of age and family. 

Honestly, life changing.

• 2 boys were best friends, but had a falling out, years later they become friends again and new feelings may arise...
• NO WORDS accept beauty and perfection - labelling it as a BL seems strange because its on a whole new level
• I love this series a seriously unhealthy amount, but there was one moment I cried so hard I actually started sweating
• Billkin does one of the best performances I've ever seen and P'Boss's direction is just incredible

• About a boy who has always tried so hard to be perfect and the boy he meets who naturally seems perfect  - warning this drama will give you CONSTANT BUTTERFLIES - and dramas never give me butterflies!!!
• This is from the creator of all my fave KBLs and this just topped the list it’s just all sorts of perfect, beautiful wonderfulness 
• its quite low drama but it was so emotional, I’ve been though some of the things the leads been through and tears occurred regularly 
• The leads had the most heartfluttering chemistry, going from dislike, to friendship, to such a beautiful relationship

• Tian gets a heart transplant and decides to live out his donors wishes, where he even falls for the man she loved
• this drama is the definition of warmth, love and healing, but I was full on sobbing for the last 3 episodes
• It's one of those dramas you finish watching and you feel it changed your life
• Earth and Mix just killed it, the looks of pure love they acted I felt in my soul, best BL chemistry maybe ever for me

• minato comes back to his hometown where he finds a highschool student in love with him - simply its a big game of cat and mouse
• this is such a BEAUTIFUL series about being your true self, loving that person and letting others love you - the leads chemistry is too good 
• The characters in this are some of my all time favourites ASUKA is my king - no villains only sweethearts
• I watched this every week for 3 months over one of my favourite summers - so it holds good memories - also the best end kiss scene ever

• Porsche is forced into being Kinn - a mafia bosses - bodyguard (warning - it’s even darker than it sounds)
• the budget for this is out of this world 
• chemistry for DAYS - kinnporsce open the season with a mature and at times beautiful love story, but you end the season with vegaspete the darkest and messiest story ever
• i would die for this whole cast and all their characters- especially vegaspete 
• Also the world building and acting is out of this world - Build (Pete) in ep13 is oscar worthy - the tension, pain and love

• a boy isnt able to graduate uni because of 1 class he decides to make another boys life miserable because he believes hes the reason he failed that class  (again opposites falling in love + height difference!)
• this is definitely everyone’s favourite Korean bl but it’s not quite mine, it is still perfect though  EDIT - took me 4 watches now it’s one of my faves
• I actually read the manhwa and the drama is way more adorable yet still such a truthful adaptation 
• the chemistry was off the charts and this project clearly meant so much to the actors - really beautiful 

• 2 brothers and a lost man start meeting every weekend for meals
• this is such a beautiful story about healing through food
• it is such an innocent, sweet and heartwarming jdrama
• the romance is very very light, but what was there was so cute

• just as school breaks for summer 1 boy kisses and confesses to his best friend 
• This was extremely short but it told this simple love story perfectly - it’s everything I love about jdramas - although I wish we got more closure on their academic futures, but the open ending is more realistic 
• One of my favourite lead performances/characters in a long time- he was so awkward and weird but in the most believable and charming way 
• also I love a love story where the character confessed to is so mature dealing with his feelings, he just asked for time to reflect - zero running away

• remake of the mini series - Mark is in love with Vees best friend, a drunken night leads to Vee and Mark sleeping together
• This is a million times better than the mini series - Vees acting has improved an insane amount - he's so charming here and YinWars chemistry proven to be some of the best in the industry
• This is full of tropes, but I feel like it utilised them all so well that I remembered why these became tropes in the first place
• Again in my opinion its just the best chemistry in any BL I've seen so far

• A failing shoju (BL manga) author and an up and coming jpop idol reconnect - after going separate ways after high school 
• Another BL that proves Japan does characters  better than any other country - the doubt depression and pain these characters go through make it a lot darker than most BLs
• This is truly about 2 people being each others support systems and safe zones
• This is also one of the funnier BLs I've seen - its typical jdrama surrealist humour at its best

• 2 boys who are opposites fall in love even though their from rival families 
• this was so brilliant and made me fall in love with Nannon all over again - pram <3
• broke all stereotypes whilst still giving us all the cliches - after the halfway point we got to see them be an adorable couple  
• we had sapphics who were so cute and fully formed with their own little love story - we thank you P’Aof for being the best bl director
  
  

• in high school a boy kissed his best friend and then ran away before his crush could respond -7 years later they meet at a job interview
• This was truly so special - the chemistry was off the charts, the confession scene was incredible and they became a couple half way through so we actually got to see them be cute and couple-y
• these actors were so good with casual intimacy and so tactile with each other - like a real couple - that's never the case in KBLs 
• AND not one, but two amazing kisses... again this cant be a KBL ...but it is!!!

• short but PERFECTION
• bodygaurd and heir gave been friends for 15 years when feelings happen...
• First even Korean BL not independently funded
• this is seriously so beautiful I couldn’t believe my eyes, THE CHEMISTRY

• 2 very different boys learn to support and be there for eachother, they become friends, then more
• the first 6 episodes are some of my favourite bl episodes ever, but the last too have to wrap too much up - the series is too short
•  The chemistry/relationsip of the leads is so heartfluttering, adorable, healthy and wholesome 
• BEST BL SOUNDTRACK EVER 

• Short but so so sweet
• volleyball boyfriends
• troublemaker falls for goody two shoes
• that kiss through the volleyball net which may be the best first kiss scene ever

• A loner decides that he wants to make friends for the first time, he joins the school council to do that where he meets his first love but which of the 3 boys will it be?
• this was so so so adorable and the lead ended up with my fave so I was very happy
• these “who will he end up with?” Plots give me to much anxiety because I always get too attached to one suitor
• just again THIS WAS TOO DARN ADORABLE and I’ll forever love my enemies- friends-lovers ship!

• 30 and a virgin our lead gains the power to read minds when he finds out a coworker has a crush on him
• this series is so wholesome sweet and adorable
• the leads have great chemistry and there is zero toxicity 
• this would be higher on the list if I wasn’t as emotionally attached to the dramas above, cause technically it’s better than them!
• there's no kiss between the leads - it wasn’t necessary and didn’t affect my love for the drama, but some fans got mad

• 2 teens meet, for one its love at first sight, the other falls in love over the summer
• basically a surfer boy trying everything to get his crush to love him
• this ones so cute i smiled ear to ear the WHOLE time
• my first Japanese BL and it was peeerrrrfeecct

• A boys twin end up in a coma he takes his place to discover who hurt his twin
• this was fantastic and taught me so much about the political situation in Thailand, definitely one of the most important series
• Offgun killed it in tones that are so different from anything they’ve done before their chemistry is still amazing
• Weaknesses: there were quite a few plot holes - also my hatred of a canonically queer character in the novel being straightwashed in the series - plus the fact he turned into a horrible character when trying to be in said straight relationship

• A boy is brought into be a hotel heir’s bodyguard 
• this is some serious soulmates writing here - it’s basically love at first sight which I usually hate but it’s done so well here!
• they go and fall head over heals for each other on an island for half the drama and the other half is pain and suffering
• WHERE DID THIS CHEMISTRY COME FROM!? PondPhuwin were good in Fish Upon the Sky but their chemistry in this is incredible and so mature - it really felt like this EPIC romance because of them - their ep9 acting is insane

• one boy always places first, the other always places second
• this is the most wholesome and adorable enemies (one sided) to lovers
• that small angry and adorable sweetheart dynamic
• i can't  wait for part 2 - this part had zero angst, but pt2 looks full of it - AH

• MY 50TH BL!!!
• The 2nd series of BL sees the lead trying to win back his broken hearted ex
• The best 2nd series to a BL ever
• Some scenes were so well acted I found them extremely difficult to watch 
• that being said this also had some of the most adorable and wholesome content ever

• To get back his job a man decides to try to get close to his bosses favourite artist, who after a broken heart went into hiding
• This was so ridiculously warm and so ROMANTIC - it was a proper romance - gave me all the warm and fuzzies! There were so any hugs in this drama and I loved every single on of them
• The plot is exactly what you'd expect - its been done before, but the exceptional acting, beautiful chemistry between the leads and wonderful characters make this such an enjoyable watch
• ALSO the side couple were so cute  - high school besties, who grew apart - ones the adorable charasmatic cafe owner, the other a "bad boy" with tattoos - both hopelessly in love with each other, but the ca fe owner refusing to accept his crushes advances! I 

• Not a BL, but there’s an incredible BL side couple - 1 half the couple is one of my all time favourite characters
• the story of a virgin Alex who travels to the future where he’s a gynaecologist - sounds weird, but its like Sex Education with time travel
• the BL side couples story was 2 bullies were best friends at school, but went separate ways when seen kissing - 10yrs later they meet again and still have feelings - their chemistry and steam, was A LOT
• Discusses so many important issues like: consent, STDs, pregnancy, abortions, open relationships, homophobia (internalised and in the workplace), non-binary people, sexual harassment, even kinks and so many more - its awesome

• One boy is in love with the other and treats him like a god
• oh my goodness!!! This was such a perfect little thing, so so beautiful
• yes in the real world Kiyois actions wouldnt be okay, but in dramaland he’s my little angel and their relationship was adorable and we got kisses…in a school jdrama!?
• kiyois performance is so good, he’s so aloof but then we see his perspective in ep5 and then he breaks down in the final episode and my heart actually hurt

• This couple argue one evening, they breakup, but that night one ends up in an accident and forgets everything about the other - he's just like he was at the start of their relationship again - so could they restart things?
• This is a seriously heavy drama - I think I cried from episode one onwards because this drama is just over flowing with the feeling of melancholy 
• they were a ridiculously adorable couple, the flash backs to how they got together were especially cute and these are 2 extremely talented actors
• It's really about communication in relationships and how no matter what if you're supposed to be with a person you will

• In school a popular boy lies that the lonely athlete tried to attack him, this leads to a hate filled relationship, which then becomes friendship and then possibly more?
• I read this manhwa and it is DARK they toned down a lot of the extreme stuff to make one of the leads become more likeable, but it does still include: bullying, abuse, depression and suicide
• These are 2 rookie actors and they do a pretty good job - especially the boy playing the popular boy - its such a complex character, but he perfectly encapsulated the character from the manhwa
• There isn't a kiss -  there's no kiss in the manhwa - the last episode was a special episode filmed months after the rest - its unnecessary and doesn't add anything to the series - its cute though, just not the same standard as the rest

• 2 boys fell in love (and slept together) at 15 which resulted in them being separated for 10 years - but when they find each other again one of them acts like they were just classmates
• This was such a beautiful story and I loved how they intertwined the past and present and slowly revealed more about Ren's character
• This is on the steamier side of JBLs but the steam is mostly due to how intimate those few scenes feel - personally I feel the chemistry of the leads was top tier
• My one fault is that Ren was such an incredible character - there were so many layers to him - his charm, pain, charisma, trauma and his hidden over-whelming love, then adult Kazuma in comparison was a bit of a blank character - but the child actor for him brought a lot to the role

• 5th Korean BL released 
• a chef and an actor with very different personalities end up living together
• this was super light and adorable but also felt more mature (& waaay more kissing)
• this couples enemies to friends to lovers story was so well shown in such a short series

• BL is only a side couple
• bully and victim become best friends and then realise they love and need eachother more than anything 
• a love that transcends sexuality
• no kiss or confirmed relationship until their Our Skyy episode 

• The love story between a tutor in university and a high school gangster 
• this is full of so much character and personality - it’s so unique, bizarre and hilarious
• The leads are so weird and cheesy but they make it still cute
• the friendships and familial relationships make this even better - as well as the main location being temples!

• A man is stuck in a monotonous routine, his young coworker plans to get him out of it with new experiences and good food!
• This was very good and is definitely a lot of peoples all time fave JBL 
• Really good mature age gap drama - the pining was limited and everything was understated for a Japanese drama
• the main couple had good chemistry and theres a confession scene that’s all one shot and it’s incredible how raw and painful it is to watch! 

• Closed off senior and puppy dog newbie employee start to fall in love
• this was so sweet - their dynamic and chemistry just worked so well!
• its such a quintessential Korean BL - it had all the tropes but did them so well

• A man is going through a hard time, when his 2 childhood pets come back into his life, but as humans
• This succeeded all of my expectations and was just so RIDICULOUSLY cute - with and unexpected amount of tears too
• Choco and JungWoo stole my whole heart with how innocent and adorable they are  
• I would say I can't believe this drama made ship a pet and their owner, but I've watched Asian dramas for too long for this to be the first time this has happened 

• A boy dreams of making it in music and with a school mates support they try to achieve his dreams
• This was adorable - the leads had this real domestic comfortable chemistry - it was so believable they’d lived together for years
• the romance actually seemed quite slowburn and there were some quite annoying miscommunications that were drawn out
• overall a very enjoyable and sweet kbl

• The leads are gorgeous, I’m deadly serious when I say I’d die for them
• its a fake boyfriend storyline...so yaaas
• their chemistry is insane
• its one of the funniest dramas I’ve ever seen, I cry tears of laughter every episode

• 2 reporter that are rivals are teamed up and start to understand each other
• This was so so so good - the development of the leads relationship
• I loved seeing the missions they went on to uncover their stories - I could’ve watched them do this for 100 episodes
• They were 2 characters that really fit together and made sense - also they had the right amount of steamy scenes - nothing crazy like some JBLs but also definitely not nothing 

• A man dissatisfied with his life discovers he is able to travel back in time to his university days after he finds out his first love is getting married
• I am such a HUGE Gawin fan and he did such an incredible job this was a very charming characte, but also so broken and in need of love - he delivered in all aspects 
• i‘m not such a big fan of Krist but he did a really good job in this role - you could tell he really put everything into the performance
• I think the story was well told and mostly engaging, but (I know I am completely alone in thinking this) Krist and Gawins chemistry was a bit “meh” - it definitely has good moments, but overall I felt it was a little lacking

• On the first day of Dong Baeks new job his Director tells him, if they don't date they'll die- hint: past lives - expect unexpected tragedy
• This started out extremely strong, but I feel the story got a little confused as it kept going - but the leads casual chemistry kept this going
• Park Young Woon who plays the director is one of the best looking people I've ever seen on screen - its ridiculous
• They fake you out with a typical bad KBL kiss and then do an amazing one 

• A popular student has a rule that he will date the first person who asks him that Monday - but one week a boy asks him out - its 2 movies not a series
• This was actually really sweet - I loved seeing them grow to like each other and understand each other
• There is a lot of miscommunication in the second movie, but its such a short story it makes it bearable
• The insane jdrama 2010's hair bothered me so much less than I thought it would

• Part 2 of above
• Everything said above 
• Just wanting to add that this is such a gem that I feel so many either don't know about or skip over - DONT its actually very special

• A boy sees his best friend fatally hit by a bus, but he stands up a minute later - but then people start to lose the ability to see him
• This was such a heartbreakingly beautiful drama -I sobbed the full second half
• The leads just had the most beautiful relationship - they're so different but they are each others person and the drama makes it clear - there will never be anyone they'll love as much as each other
• The whole time you'll hope the ending  is not what you're thinking, but I think it's best you know its exactly what you're thinking

• The acting is beyond brilliant, again some insane chemistry
• The direction is actually amazing, I was obsessed with it
• seeing our 2 leads open up and fall in love was so beautiful 
• BUT  ONLY WATCH TILL EPISODE 9 if you like happy endings, because they decided that the best HIStory couple was the one they should give a sad ending to, which ended the HIStory franchise and apparently the writer stole the idea anyway...ugh but its so well made

• Second Korean BL
• a pacemaker has been in love with a marathon runner for years.
• this was too darn cuuute
• a lot more kiss scenes and intimate scenes than WYEL, still WYEL is my fave though

• The side couples story from UWMA 
• I had very low expectations for this after my problems I had with UWMA and the fact that I'm let down by the majority of this directors projects - most fans were let down by this, but my expectations were so low that I really liked it
• After ep1 I wasn't completely sold, but over the course of the first half I fell in love with these leads and their love
• The way these 2 characters cared for and comforted each other was so beautiful - even though there was a crazy amount of miscommunication I didn't mind

• A ghost streamer goes to visit his family in Thailand, but are they ghost?
• This such a little gem - the leads chemistry was actually insane - I’ve never seen chemistry that natural and immediate before
• Also I loved the family and their rules for being ghosts - but it was really heartbreaking to see them deal with being ghosts 
• Im not a fan of a time jump and I don’t feel it was completely necessary here, even though they tried to explain it

• some lines and scenes in this are eyeroll worthy and laughable and the first episode has a PROBLEMATIC scene, but work through those cause
•  their chemistry is some of the all time best
• Type coming to terms with his sexuality storyline is *chefs kiss*
• Almost too many sex scenes for my prude ass, but if you’re into that there are A LOT

• This series is split in half each half telling a different stories:
• Payu meets rain and bets him that he has to make him fall in love with him in the next 30 days
• Prapai meets Sky and falls in love, but Sky has been hurt from his past relationships
• For me although Rain and Payus story made no sense it was superior too to the second story - their chemistry was electric - I was constantly blown away - but most fans prefer the second part

• Talay drowns and wakes up in a parallel universe as some one else - he has to find a special person who will be his key to getting back to his universe
• I was so excited for a BL series with a ton of fantasy, but was SO disappointed when I realised all of the potential for great fantasy was glossed over
• Once I got over my disappointment and realised the real story here was about a group of boys trying to make films together I enjoyed it a lot more
• The leads chemistry was quite lacking for me but they had some very cute moments

• Love a healthy main couple
• love supportive coming out scenes and healthily coming to terms with your sexuality scenes
• love the side couple, you’ve got to wait a while but BOY are they amazing
• a lovely cast of character, fingers crossed for season 2, even with all the bts drama and stupid things the cast are saying

• adorable cop and a stone faced mob boss fall in love?
• People LOVE this one, they are obsessed, most peoples favourite HIStory series, a it’s just not my favourite and I don't know why
• the leads have some seriously heart fluttering scenes and extremely emotional scenes that are 10/10
• HIStory with the biggest budget and most story outside of the romantic ones

• Our lead is cursed with constant bad luck, so he decides to get close to a popular boy who has endless good luck
• this was very cute and quite funny
• i did feel the leads kind of lacked any sort of chemistry, but they fit their roles
• it wasn’t incredible, but it reminded me of Cherry Magic and Kieta Hatsukoi which are incredible 

• A comet is flying towards the earth - everyone will die in 10 days, at the library our lead runs into the man that broke his heart in college, they make a deal which leads them on a road trip
• One of the stars did one of my most hated performances in a jdrama, but he was quite good here and this directors work is usually void of any emotion, but i actually liked this
• I read the manga before and it is petty much a scene for scene, word for word adaptation which I appreciated
• It's definitely for adult audiences, the leads both do some pretty messed up stuff and there are a couple extremely graphic s*x scenes

• BL author and lead in his series adaptation fall in love
• The lead (Up) in this is so incredibly talented, I'd seen him play a horrible character previously but in this he's adorable and just such a sweetheart
• The other lead is very pretty but compared to the other he's not as brilliant an actor (don't kill me!)
• It's really cute and sweet whilst making some extremely important points about the toxicity of the BL industry

• 4th Korean BL released 
• a boy can't see colours, but meets another boy who gives him the ability to see them
• these 2 were complete soulmates and it was so beautiful
• due to how short it was it was a little messy and I had an issue with the editing in one episode
• other than that i thought it was perfect, they had wonderful chemistry - koreas kinda great at bls 

• A boy gets into a car accident and swaps bodies with his sister - he has to team up with his ex-best friend to road trip to several shrines to reverse the swap
• Definitely not the best series ever BUT it was filled with EarthMix’s incredible natural chemistry and I LOVED every second of that
• The love these 2 characters felt was palpable and that’s completely down to EarthMix and why theyre one of my favourite gmmtv pairings
• The road trip element meant we really got to explore areas of Thailand (and their food) that we normally don’t see in Thai BLs

• A boy admitted his feelings to another boy the day before he moves to another country - they meet again a couple years later at university
• This was cute - it was a fun binge watch - i probably wouldn't have liked it so much if I watched it as it aired
• The actors had really good chemistry - nice to Joong in another good pairing - he seems to have fabulous chemistry with all his partners
• It was cheesy and cliched, but as I said - fun - I'm looking forward to seeing JoongDunk in another (hopefully better) series 

• A continuation of their story in the first series
• i was so happy to spend more time with these interesting characters and it was so fun
• i liked the glimpse we got of their life together and relationship
• nothing really happens - only a bit of growth in the last episode, but it was still very cuteand messy like the first series

• After getting together in series 1 jiwoo leaves with no explanation 
• this was still fantastic and filled with emotion
• the leads chemistry is still 10/10
• but I really couldn‘t understand the motivations of one of the characters - I’ve read so many deep dive introspective fan essays and i just don’t get it - definitely my least fave work of Hwang Da Seul- but its still great

• Boy gets a makeover to get his crushes attention, but his competitor keeps getting in the way
• This was very very cute and definitely way above average
• so glad I watched it but that being said all the cliches made this a little forgettable in comparison to gmmtv dramas like 1000 stars
• Mix looked so adorable the whole way through which made my heart happy

• Yashiro confesses to and is then rejected by his best friend, he makes a wish to turn intoa girl to be his best friends type
• This is a lot darker and more depressing than the whimsical plot makes it seem
• A really interesting cast of characters and I loved the tiny glimpse we got of our leads relationship - I was sad we only got 1 ep of them in their real bodies falling in love before they were separated again
• i really thought this was going to be one of my new all time favourites, butI didn’t love it as much as I thought I would - still it’s a beautiful drama

• A beautiful, cheesy, sometimes cringey but always adorable socially distanced BL
• a livestream gamer and their fan meet online in lockdown
• the main couple are seriously cute (even though almost all their interactions are over video call)
• so surreal to see a drama embrace covid like this, but this one did it in a seriously smart and respectful way

• a man realises he's living as an extra in a BL he's gonna make sure he doesn't fall in love
• this was HILARIOUS - they gave us every single BL cliche ever 
• the lead actor was brilliant so funny and melodramatic - I also loved him in the intro song
• I really loved the leads cute romance but I wish they'd sprinkled it in throughout the drama not just the final episode

• 2 boys walk into each other when they're 17 and spend the next 15 years in love
• this one was so sweet and then so painful
• yuki is my son and i would die for him
• gave it an extra star cause it gave History3 MODC an alternate happy ending

• BL couple are one of the 4 couples this drama follows
• you see how of Pete and Kao came to be (hint: it’s hate to love)
• 2nd drama in the Kiss series, its a prequel and my favourite of the 3 seasons, but watch it after ’Kiss: The Series’ and before ‘Dark Blue Kiss’
• Very tame and family friendly as most GMMTV BLs are 

• 6th Korean BL
• A dancer in debt and his debtor spend time together and fall in love
• The first half I really didn't get all the love, but the second half is wow
• kinda earned its R-rating (by kdrama standards)
• It was incredibly sweet - at the end I teared up 

• A rich boy is cut off by his father forced to work at his fathers company - so he moves into a flat with a landlord - the landlord later realises his annoying, spoiled tenant is his new boss
• This has the same leads as Kissable Lips, which i didn't really like, but this was a MILLION times better
• These 2 leads have good chemistry and a super comfortable with each other probably as it's their second project together
• It's a really simple opposites attract story, with thrown in forced proximity - its only 8 episodes so a simple story works well

• lovers from a past life reborn, so get the tissues
• great actors and in my opinion improved direction since Love By Chance
• really enjoyable and compelling first half, second half the constant crying was a bit too much and was so often it didn’t affect me anymore
• another really cute side couple who I wish got more screen time,  second season anyone?

• Boy moves to Seoul and catches the eye of 2 restaurant owners
• The chemistry in this was incredible and there were some fantastic scenes with the leads
• It was a really simple story but a fun quick watch
• Wanted the second couple to be a thing even more than the mains, but sadly no…

• Q boy sees X as his biggest rival, X bets Q that he can’t get this popular girl to ask him out (hint thers a secret crush and lots of bickering)
• this is the definition of a hidden gem, it flew under everyones radar but it’s so cute
• The leads had a really fun dynamic and I loved that there was a mature queer character advising the younger characters here
• Theres no kiss, but it doesn’t really need one

• A dentist and a man who has childhood trauma about going to the dentist meet and feeling start to form
• I am usually a HUGE fan of this writers work - she's responsible for so many of my Taiwanese favourites but the writing  here didn't work for me at all and the leads lacked chemistry (but had some cute moments once in a relationship)
•  I was constantly so confused where these leads stood with each other - i didn't even know one lead considered himself to be straight until halfway through the drama 
• The second couple were so so cute though - the moody bar manager training the 19yr old who has a huge crush on him- they were my favourite part but sadly barely had any screen time 

• 2 guys in the same work/friend group don‘t get along due to their different views on sex/love, but they enter a no strings attached relationship
• This was one of my most anticipated dramas for such a long time and it was just a big, messy let down - feels like wasted potential 
• the leads chemistry was fire though and they really really went for it with their love scenes and romantic scenes - also Yim was so funny and brilliant that he stole every scene he was in even as just a side character- I need his characters series NOW
• I think partially this series didn’t work for me due to the filming issues which aren’t the productions fault - I think they needed Yim’s characters story first so that they could build the relationship between our leads here, but because they couldn’t this felt so busy, messy and rushed at the beginning, then slow and boring at the end

• At this school when the eclipse comes terrible things happen to trouble making students - this is where a troublemaker and a school prefect fall in love
• I have loved the 2 leads of this series for years and I was glad to see them partnered up here and so many fans agree - they looove this series and Khaotung and First
• I've found that this director doesn't really work for me - It was meant to explore thai society and the messed up justice system on the micro scale of a school setting, which works in theory, but I found it kinda stupid when fully realised in live action- don't kill me!
• sidenote: I really hope the leads aren't typecast as this dynamic - I really want to see First play a bad boy like he has previously, but I'm afraid he'll always play the innocent straightlaced guy, because Khoatuing suits the "badboy" aesthetic

• A talented chef who doesn't allow alcohol at his restaurant and a boy who loves to drink start to work together and feelings come to fruition
• The middle 4 episodes of this drama are so so good - the chemistry is great and its so fun to watch these 2 leads bond and to learn about the drinking culture in South Korea
• The first 2 and last 2 episodes of this drama really let it down - the first 2 are way too slow and the last 2 focus on unnecessary drama and the leads building chemistry kinda fizzles out to nothing
• I did have fun with this drama and would recommend it still - I think its got a far worse reputation that it deserves - its just a standard kbl, with a standard atrocious kbl kiss

• a wedding planner and a groom meet and start to fall in love
• this plot sounded so fun and messy and I was so excited for it but this drama ended up being so *yawn*
• the leads fell in love so quickly - basically at first sight which is not my thing and it meant that the misunderstandings took twice as long as they needed fill the plot
• there were episodes in this where I thought it was actually getting good, but then I’d be disappointed the next episode- Mames dramas are never incredible, but I feel like they always have stars with insane chemistry to fall back on, but I felt this leads chemistry in this was just fine, nothing special.

• It‘s messy: the leads kind of drug each other and then film them sleeping together to blackmail each other
• Firstly the theme song for this is INCREDIBLE - I’m obsessed
• I thinkthis leads had good chemistry, they gave these roles their 100% and it had a way better production quality than I would’ve expected
• But it was marketed as this epic hatred to love romance, but it felt like they argued for 1 episode and then fell in love, they were cute but I wanted more toxicity from that synopsis 

• A film director meet again after unexpectedly parting in university 
• i liked this more than most people I loved the locations and the dynamic of the leads: grumpy and adorable puppy
• The last episode felt  little unnecessary and wasted - also there were some big mistakes- microphones clearly left in shots
• Warning: it ends with 3 “dead fish” kisses - if those bother you -avoid this drama

• Hong Kong adaptation of a jdrama - and my first HKdrama
• A guy finds out his boss and coworker both have crushes on him 
• It's silly and a lot of fun, I didn't like the little I saw of the jdrama, but this was so much better - a lot more toned down
• the lead was fabulous - so funny. the lead couple were extremely underdeveloped though, I'd go as far as to say this  drama isn't their love story so don't expect good romance
