It was me who complained.
I won't say anything every again. This series will save the year.

I love how they make War the older one in this series. Despite him looking good and all, it's obvious he is older. Yin's child-like face isn't helping to disguise the age difference.
But in this series they fit their characters well.

I wrote a review back then for Love Mechanics, the short series, not the longer one. I remember writing, War is the best actor I have ever seen in any BL.
I wasn't wrong. Years later, that's still true.

On1y One is incredible well done, but you need a lot of patience to get through it. I struggle too, mostly because the school plot is not my favorite.

People hype it because of Bible and the hot NC scenes. What are such scenes good for, when the story is a confusing mess, you can't grasp the characters, the chemistry isn't there?
Even the people who enjoy it, admitted they don't really understand what is going on.

Watch Jack & Joker to get out of your BL depression.
That's at least what I did. Best first episode I have seen this whole year.
Yeah, GMMTV is bad lately. Kidnap had so much potential, but those weak dialogues, cheap production, silly plots. Don't really care about the kisses. A good kiss won't save this mess.

And when exactly did the company decide that? I didn't get the memo.
I watched both trailers. This was not advertised like Mix-up or Only Boo.

People here are extremely childish. I was already called a toxic OhmNanon (when I don't even like the pairing), now I'm an Ohm hater.
Yes, you're right. Jack and Joker is miles ahead of this. Why not compare? Both have a similar genre: romance, crime, drama. Both are thai productions. Both are BLs.
And yes, Kidnap was advertised as action/thriller. I have watched both trailers. It's not a funny rom-com like Mix-up or Only Boo.
People are delusional. Kidnap has a weak script, weak production, acting is okay, but especially Ohm' character seems not well written.

4minutes is trash. But this one ... wow.
Best first BL episode I have ever seen in my life.

Yeah, yeah ... criticism = hate
Childish.

The trailer of Thame Po was incredible. Not as popular as Heart Killers, but the series looks promising.
"Yes, this is fairly common in the entertainment industry, not just GMMTV"
I lately looked at the most recent movies Hollywood put out: 2nd seasons and remakes of old 80s- 90s movies, lol

"They don't want to work with each other and don't want to interact and made it clear to the fans" - it's that bad?
Because I remember how I was blown away by Nanon's acting, and I felt like Ohm did improve a lot, because of him. Seeing them act together, they both reached new heights.

I enjoyed Unknown, which had some deep and interesting storytelling. The end was rather disappointing, though.
I watched 9 of those series you mentioned (Unknown included). Didn't like them.
Especially Korean BL are becoming live action manhwa. Watching those series, I already can imagine the panels and the drawings without even knowing the original work. This comic-screen transition is just weird. The series lack depth, the characters don't feel real. I gave up on Korean BL this year. Wait, no, I watched Gray Shelter, that was decent.
I also watch On1y One from Taiwan at the moment. It's interesting enough.
GMMTV didn't put out anything mind-blowing this year. They recycle ideas and concepts.

I can only talk for myself, but if I see a rather low rating, I immediately want to know what's so bad about the series, and then I look at the comments. If people praise the series, I will watch it.
If a series has 8.8+ rating, I know something is fishy, and it's overhyped, especially when it's not finished yet, and just a few episodes are out.

The writing was terrible, really. It's the small things. The wattpad vibe is strong in this one. I had such high hopes for this series. But well, maybe ep2 is better. I already said It: I will watch it to the end just for Leng's pretty face.

Unfortunately, toxic fans are well known in the BL genre, but if I think about it ... Ohm is some unlucky guy for sure! He was involved in that big scandal with his first partner in Make It Right, now that drama with Nanon. No wonder he didn't do any BL projects for three years.
And well, sorry to say it, but all that craziness for a couple that is as straight as an arrow. Sure, everything is possible, but those two would be the last one I expected to come out of the closet. Ohm is known for liking girls and big cars, and Nanon will marry the girl next door. Strange, really.
I wonder what will happen if this new pairing (OhmLeng) is working out. More drama? Ohm has chemistry with everyone, and Leng will sure be popular with that pretty face.

Reading the comments, I had no idea that there are crazy OhmNanon fans out there. I mean ... Bad Buddy aired ... 3 years ago (I had to look that up). What's happening? Honestly, I liked their series, but not the pairing, they had zero sensual/erotic chemistry, only buddy chemistry, so the name of the series was fitting. Still, it was a nice and well-made series.
I had no idea that those guys had so much fans.

I'm bracing myself for the next disappointment. It's not a good year for BL.

Seriously, no issue with Leng. I liked how he screamed, and suddenly stopped after Ohm pointed his gun at him. That was the best and most powerful moment of Ep1.

1. I thought Leng's acting was better than Ohm's, but perhaps I'm biased, since I expected something great from Ohm, and something bad from Leng. Ohm tried to give the character more depth by showing emotions in some of the more serious and emotional scenes, but it didn't work for me. The character seems too simple, Leng on the other hand seems more interesting and complex. So I look forward to Leng's character and performance.
2. The plot is cliché and the little things are not well-thought-out. Maybe the romance, the emotions, and relationships will be portrayed better (I doubt it), but the writer has not thought deeply about the whole kidnapping process and what is going on in the character's mind during those scenes. Both behaved in a rather unusual and unlogical way, though I'm sure people will find excuses for their behavior.
3. I agree. The sound is the problem, and those little things and silly scenes, they could have done better. The plot gives me some heavy wattpad vibes.
4. I agree on the chemistry. I see no issues here. That's the reason, why I'm so bitter. I like this couple, they look good together, the dynamic is promising. But I have a good radar when it comes to deep and emotional series, and this first episode was too silly for my taste.
