I'm here after rewatching

I know a lot of fans already reviewed this series, but I want to write one mostly for myself to look back to in the future.

First off, I was really looking forward to atots even before the series aired. The teaser really caught my attention, plus there's earth pirapat. When atots started airing, of course I had to watch. I instantly fell in love with their opening song. It was very calming and addicting.

I'd say earth's acting was good. It's expected of him, since I've seen his other series and I liked him. But I was really shocked with mix. I wasn't familiar with him, and thought he had a lot of acting experience before. I didn't know atots was his acting debut. With that kind of acting, it won't be hard for him to land onto another project. I instantly became a fan. What made me really stay is because of earthmix's chemistry. It was one of the best! I really hope they can be one of GMM's pillar. They also have a large fandom, considering they only have just sailed.

Tbh I haven't had the chance to read atots novel. I only heard the story is different from the series. I don't know how much, so I can't really compare them back then. After rewatching atots this time, I finally bought the novel and read it. I think the angst really ran deep in the novel. Maybe could've been deeper than in the series. However, I was taken aback that the series was pretty different from the novel. They changed a lot of details and scenes. Some I hoped was included in the series. Nevertheless, the series was much much better logic wise and plot wise. It made much more sense and is believable to an extent. I'm glad they made the change.

To say this is one of the best thai BL series is an understatement. Of course I had to rewatch atots. maybe I'll watch it a thousand times if I must. I could see better details when I rewatch and I understand more of why the characters act that way after knowing the whole story. I think rewatching atots is a new experience. I can see myself rewatching this again next year. I'm just too in love with this series.

I fell in love

At first I doubted this drama because of the not so interesting poster. And I knew none of the cast. Although the story seemed interesting to me, I kept putting this one on my watch later list.
But when I started this drama, man, it was so addictive. I couldn't stop watching. It's really inspiring and fun to watch.
I really liked shi guang's character. Plus, chu ying's character is too funny. He deserved an award. Not to mention yu liang and fang xu. They compliment the drama to be well balanced.
I just didn't realize I would get so attached to this drama. And I cried from episode 30 until 35. I was wasted for chuying. Why did he leave like that? I think this was the plot hole in the drama. "the divine move" was put out too simply, and there was no tension behind the scene. It happened, just like that. I think it was kind of a pity. The story could've been better if they'd make it more dramatic. It's the most awaited scene in the drama - when chu ying finally finds "the divine move". But there was nothing much to it, sadly.
Overall, I'd really really love to rewatch this drama again someday. It was a good watch. And I'll definitely recommend this to people who loves sport/competition based dramas. It's definitely worth the try.

I'm so done! This drama ended my life!

First off, I was interested when woh started airing, but I didn't put much attention to it. There are other currently airing dramas that kept my daily watchlist full. But during the first few episodes, when not a lot of people were talking about woh yet, I gave it a try (I think it was around ep 5 on youtube when I started). All I can say is: This drama ruined my life! I couldn't stop watching and kept waiting for new updates weekly.
At some point, I wanted my friend to try this, because it's just so good. Plus, I needed someone to talk about woh openly with. Little did I know, they watched woh too! And it was like fate all over again. We're watching the same drama. And someone could admire this piece of art with me.
Secondly, Woh, I think, is by far one of the most addicting "bromance" drama for me. I used to watch a few others, such as the untamed, guardian, the sleuth of ming, forward forever, etc., but I only managed to finish the untamed. As for the others, they're dropped or put on hold for now. I think what makes woh so special is because of the exceptional chemistry between the two main actors - gong jun and zhang zhehan, and with the help of the sides too.
I really fell in deep love with zhou zishu's aloof character, wen kexing's playful but sexy character, gu xiang's cheerfulness and cao weining's innocence, and not to mention zhang chengling's independence. Everyone executed the characters perfectly and made everyone fall in love with the drama.
side note: chengling got me so whipped! He's a literal babie who needs to be protected. And each episode, I look forward to his scenes, especially with zishu and kexing. They make a cute family of three.
Third, This drama was definitely more than bromance, which makes it all the more interesting to watch. Just look at how the two main characters treat each other. They're definitely not brothers!
Anyhow, I don't think I'll ever get over this drama. Not anytime soon. And I might try to read the novel and any other content related to this drama.
Lastly, woh was definitely a very beautiful drama. I'll definitely rewatch this in the near future. And I will 101% recommend my friends to watch woh, because it's just so good, you can't dislike it.

This drama isn't right!

Wtf this drama is a mess! My first time writing a review here bcs this infuriates me!

I only had the chance to watch this now, but damn this isn't right. They're pushing the gay story so much it's not even supposed to be like this at all. The fact that jinsung's brother is gay and had to hide bcs of his brother who is faking his gay identity got me mad. I mean, what did he do to suffer? Jinsung is really self-centered. And the fact that taehwan didn't even confess even though he had so many chances ugh! What is wrong with him?

In conclusion, i couldn't exactly say that i regret watching (i actually kinda do), but this drama isn't supposed to be aired in tne first place. Nothing's right here. I only stayed bcs of the taehwan-jinsung bit. But the story had to hurt me so bad. I wish taehwan could just be friends with jinwoo instead and be happy. At least they understand each other the most.

in love with pingxie

GADD!!! I didn't know I would be this attached to this series. At first, I watched because of Joseph Zeng (I love him so much and I love his acting in previous dramas). But then I started to like the story and where they are taking us in the story. I really really shipped xiao ge and wu xie so hard, like I'd be eager to see their interactions. They make the cutest pair! I didn't realize this was part of a series adapted from the novel. But then it inspired me to watch the other dramas too. Watched The Lost Tomb 1&2, and so far i think this one had the best cast and acting. I really loved how each actors portrayed the characters well. I'm definitely looking forward to watching the other dramas in the series and of course I'm looking forward to watching the casts other dramas.

wang hedi is the cutest

I didn't expect this drama to be one of those cliche office romance dramas. surely, I wasn't keen of office romance dramas, but this one's different. I wholeheartedly fell in love with wang hedi. I mean, who wouldn't love seeing a cute intern standing beside his boss and making sure she's okay every day? I really really can't move on from his character. Although I do think the drama is a bit draggy at some point and doesn't make much sense, I still liked it nonetheless. The romance between them is genuine. I rarely support couples with large age gaps, but they made a cute couple. I skipped sone parts near the ending, but that's about it. I'd gladly recommend this to my friends, but definitely not one of those dramas I'd consider rewatching.

Bromance here makes me scream UWU

first off, I was prejudiced because of the title. I thought this would be one of those cringey dramas where the story revolves around turning into insects or communicating with insects (the latter was true tho in a way). So i've put this one on my to watch list for some time. But when i started watching, it wasn't like what i thought. The story does revolve around male lead who is obsessed with insects, but the character and back story are deeper and more complicated than that.

I really liked the actors here. They give a clear character and their acting are quite good. I especially liked tan jingtian. He turned out to be a really nice person considering his past. Plus, the detectives here are so funny.

The storyline is kinda predictable near the end. We all know there would be a twist between the two male leads, their father and the uncle who took care of jingtian. But i didn't expect wen bai to die like that. His death does affect on the secret behind jingtian's mom's death. No one will know how she really died, now that everyone who knew about it died. I wished wen bai and jingtian could spend more time together. I think they make the best brothers despite the secrets between them>.<

one more thing which made me agitated: why is jingtian so dumb here? When i thought he'd figure out something about wen bai, he actually had no clue. He trusted wen bai too blindly, if i must say. Luckily, wen bai didn't mean any harm towards him. jingtian is just too innocent for his own good.

Overall, I really liked this drama. And i'd really recommend this to anyone who likes mystery crime related drama. I might also rewatch this myself someday in the future.

I didn't expect I'd fall in love with this drama

I first started watching because of the intriguing title. they did a great job inviting viewers from just the title. I finally watched after letting the drama sit on my to watch list for some time.
story wise, the earlier and latter parts are the most boring for me, I think it started off okay, until we see moei being a "spy" and hacking into the company's system. I was hoping to see more of a love-hate relationship between moei and tian. but we got some office fight instead.
luckily it passed, and it became watchable again. I really felt bad for moei when she found out about tian's confession that he'd never love her no matter what. my heart hurts. but then they became "friends" and that's when all the uwu stuff starts happening.
although they kept pushing and pulling, this was my favorite part of the drama. I think the peak was when they went to myanmar. they got together quite late though, if I must say. and both got hurt along the way, but that's what makes the emotions build up for the moment of confession.
the ending was awful tbh. I couldn't accept the fact that they broke up so soon. and the fact that moei was pregnant and hid it away from tian made me tired. it felt like another drama already. they should've cut down this part and just ended the drama with the main couple meet again after some time being apart. maybe it wouldn't be as bad.
anyway, i enjoyed this drama, but i definitely wouldn't rewatch this.
mark prin's acting is good tho. I fell in love with him sure enough. and I'm open to his other projects too.

regretted watching this so late

this is like the best taiwanese dramas i've watched so far (although i haven't tried that many). I was addicted to the OST and finally had the chance to try this drama a few days ago. I finished this series in 3 days. The complications got me thrilled and the romance between huang yuxuan and li ziwei got me screaming! it was kinda sad to see mo junjie disappointed in the middle, but he finally got to be with chen ruyun. they deserved each other! plus li ziwei and huang yuxuan find their way to each other even without the tapes. I guess the wait to meet each other again is worth it. I will definitely rewatch this someday or one day :)

i didn't expect it to be this good

i first watched because of the genre. and i kinda missed shin sungrok. but after the third episode, i finally realized watching this was the right choice. the suspense and emotions got me at the edge of my seat! especially when kang hyun chae was with seo do gyun and kim seo jin didn't even know about it. She's the true definition of a big ass whore! plus seo do gyun is just a jerk who only thinks about his woman.

all in all, i didn't know it would be this engaging. although there was little to no romance at all between han ae ri and kim seo jin, they had great chemistry! and im geon wook being the sad boi at the side. poor bby.

I don't know about rewatchig, but i definitely enjoyed watching this one!

in love!

i am so in love with e-sports drama. cross fire made me fall all over again. i really loved the cast, i couldn't even imagine anyone else play the characters. the plot was fresh, there isn't many e-sports drama that touched the time travel theme. but cross fire pulled it off.
i also liked how the lu xiaobei and xiao feng both had similar traits and how they were fated to meet. i liked how they tried to fight against time to change their lives. and the way they never gave up on their dreams got me so hard.
I'm thankful i stumbled upon this drama! it's really recommended to everyone who likes e-sports drama.

I cried so hard

I didn't expect this movie to be THIS good! I'm here for li xian and chen linong. But I fell in love with the movie. Everything is just so perfect. From the storyline, the acting, the ost, I loved them all. I wouldn't doubt li xiuan's acting, but I don't know about chen linong, since it's his first time acting. I didn't expect him to portray his character so perfectly. I nearly cried five times throughout the movie, but I had to fight it back T^T the ending is definitely so touching. Shisan finally realized that he didn't want to be a god anymore and so he sacrificed his life for zijin. And I guess they lived happily ever after. I almost thought that this would be another cliche story, but it had a lot of plot twists. The moral from this film also had me impressed. I'm definitely rewatching this in the future!
