Good story
The script & base story was pretty nice, overall the acting was good but I didn't feel any intimacy between the leads. All the kiss scenes except for the last episode seemed forced, like straight guys were asked to have their 1st kiss with a guy.Was this review helpful to you?
Highly Recommended
The movie started with so many funny scenes and it made me laugh. Like half of the people in the reception don't know that the wedding is not between a straight but gay couple. Every time the groom thinks that it will go right this way, it justs.....................Loved it from the start
Moving ahead it also made me sad enough to bring tears to my eyes both sad and happy tears.
The movie is a mix of different types of scenes, and I would have loved it more if it would have been longer.
Amazing acting by the leads, loved the hoodies used and as a bonus, we got such cute leads.

Cute and fluffy
I was waiting for the series to end so I can binge watch it. I saw many clips of the series and just really loved how they were so cute and fluffy.I would have just loved it if they had more story,/script, as many times the pace seems too fast with no proper story. It seemed as if they had enough story but they didn't cover it properly.
The High School to college life was too quick.
Their background seemed a bit dicey, It was as if even though they were living in the same house, they haven't met each other in ages.

Sweet but conflicted series with a mixed ending
This series has a genre fusion that is not very common, quite rare actually. This type of mystery story with a simple and sweet main lead tends to take the story in 2 different directions which makes the audience a bit confused.From the start of the series, it felt as if the series won't have a proper happy ending as the non-existing love triangle was too complicated and it will be very difficult for the writers to solve it to have a proper happy ending.
Even with a complicated story, one thing I love about the series is how some of the things are presented, tofu's character definitely being one of them. Beautifully crafted.
Story & Direction:
I find the seed story to be too unrealistic. Even for something scifi, you need to give proper explanations of how it came into existence, till the final episode there were still so many questions unanswered, which was a bit too late. Teddy ability to talk to things in the house is unrealistic again, especially since he turned into a human.
When it comes to direction & editing, I think there are just too many flashbacks and many of them weren't timed properly.
Another thing is Nut's character, it always felt like Nut's character played 2 roles that were not merged properly. His angry role was a bit extreme, making him look like an a**hole in many scenes. However in some other scene when the character is supposed to be angry, he was presented in a comparatively calm manner making the angry extreme a bit illogical.
I really like that it's not based on university but more on the work environment.
Also, it felt as if Ken's character would have looked better without glasses.
What I liked:
* Non-University BL
* Beautifully Crafted character
* multiple episodes released per week
* not just focused on BL
* even though it's not a proper happy ending, I liked it
What I disliked
* only homosexual couples (at the end, another homosexual couple was added)
* dual nature of nut's character
* unrealistic scenes
* too many flashbacks

Serious BL focusing on Politics and injustice happening
The reason I started this so late was the series being a serious one and not a fluffy or romcom one.Story :
The story is nice, well put and properly scripted to cover most if not all small things.
Acting:
I have seen most of the leads in multiple series and believe that this is by far the best they have acted till now. Acting by Gun needs special appreciation.
In a couple of scenes, I think it could have been directed or scripted better as it was not properly matching with the characters, eg. after Sean confesses to Black, his dialogue seems too extreme for his character.
I would love to watch another series of Sing Harit Cheewagaroon who played the role of Tod, liked his acting and his physique.
Another thing I would like to mention is, the makeup/character's representation, Black/White could have been portrayed a bit more masculine and mature as his physique doesn't matches with someone who is a fighter. One of the starting scene of Gawin's eyeliner was too dark.
At times it feels very dumb and unrealistic that he switched places without knowing things about his twin.
Another thing I loved is the art shown and developed in the series.
But to be frank I don't see good chemistry between the leads.

Good but I find original one a bit better
In some ways, it was better than the original with the story being less messy but I still liked the original one more.I loved the acting of Siu Muk in this one, but somewhere I felt with other actors it didn't match as well as the original one did.
There are very less differences between the original and this, while the original is fast paced this one is comparatively slow.

Too far fetched - unrealistic
Unfortunately, the plot was mixed, good to complete the incomplete plot from its prequel but the way it went is not something I agree with at all.It's too far fetched, the wife being too supportive, direct to marriage when they were barely together.
Some characters were introduced without any reason.
Even the acting wasn't that good
I don't see why Kenta's character was introduced.

Short but too slow, bit funny
The series is as it says in the description. I watched it with an open mind as I had fewer expectations from it.It's not too good but not too bad either.
Acting by the leads is good but I think the series needed to be a bit more happening.
The pace is quite slow, I watched it at around double the normal speed. It had good scope if it could have been a bit longer.

Repetitive & Stretched Story
The story is good but something that we have seen over and over again in so many seriesEven as a sub-story and not the whole series based on it, why it needed 8 episodes to cover this is a good question from my side.
Many scenes are illogical and too dramatic.
This should have been a mini-series instead, anyone can say that the series was just stretched.

Cute but Incomplete
The series overall is cute but feels incomplete.To some it might be disturbing, to some it might be dumb and to some, it might be abstract but it's all up to the viewer;
I would recommend it to the young audience only, would have been good for matures also when they just want to calm their mind if the series was complete.
It's a hard paced series with many things happening at once.
I realized that part of the episode ends somewhere and the next part starts somewhere else with no context as to what happened.
Overall acting is good but needs more zing.

Short, Sweet and Slow
Even when the series is short, about 10 minutes, I still felt that it is quite slow which is not expected from a mini-series.Was this review helpful to you?
* The acting by the actor playing "Nubsib" is just too sweet/sugary for most of the series.
* "Nubsib's" character's dual nature is too much in the extremes.
* The series feels like it was directly adapted from the novel and no alterations were made to adapt it to a series.
* Side stories are not presented properly.
To be frank, other than "Nubsib's" character, I found all other characters were portrayed perfectly by their respective actors.
Loved the acting of the actor who played Gene but not of the one who played Aoey.
I like how this series presented some things like a straight man quite experienced with makeup and clothes but at the same time I didn't like the fact that they just discuss bottom men as fem or women.
How can one person forget so many memories of a person that was so important to them at one point in their life.
I don't like the fact that in conversations they just said that in BL series the female lead is replaced by bottoms.
Like seriously dude!

A writer who remembers his past life because of love that was impossible is trying to find the girl who he loved again in his 3rd life ( in which he is a writer). He finds out that the girl has been reincarnated as a guy and he becomes confused.
There is a nine-tailed fox here whose role as a supernatural is very limited when it had a huge scope, which disappointed me a lot. Similar to this there are multiple unnecessary / less focused things in the series.
The acting is pretty good, both leads played their role nicely but I think it would have been better if there was more zing, more spice in it, which speaks more about direction than ending.
Please ignore my Music rating.

Loved the series
The story is something like thisGuy A is in love with Girl A, Guy B is in love with Guy A. Guy A treats Guy B as enemies as he always ranks first in everything they do.
The only thing which went a bit wrong is their relationship growth from enemies to friends was too fast.
The acting was pretty good, top-notch. Loved the chemistry between the characters.
The story was good but at the same time, something that we have seen time and time again.
I have already seen season 2 and will be posting its review soon.

Cute Little Story
Without a doubt, this is a lovely little cute series.There are very less BLs with working lead characters, this is one of them. I would love to see more working professionals BL series.
About the story
Even when the story is something which we have seen time and time again where one person hating another later falls in love.
It would have been better to cover some plotholes, including the one speaking to the backstory of Shi Lei and the company.
Sie couples were ignored a bit, would have been a bit better to showcase their life and their perspective.
About the acting
Loved the acting of both main leads, especially Shi Lei, his cuteness was adorable.
Please ignore my music rating.
I believe ending could have been better.
