I generally don’t write bad reviews, but I have to be honest—this one didn’t quite work for me. The story was just too slow of a burn, the male lead felt a bit clueless, and by the time things started happening, the ending felt rushed. It ended up being more frustrating than enjoyable to watch.
Surprisingly, I found Gus and Tong way more interesting than the main couple, but they didn’t get nearly enough screen time, which was a real shame.
That said, if you’ve got nothing else on your watchlist, it might still be worth a try.
I absolutely loved it! The series was full of comedy—don’t take the story too seriously. Some people might say it’s bad or point out negatives, but don’t listen to them. Just give it a try. I watched the whole series in one day, in a single sitting, and not once did I feel bored. Every time I thought, “Maybe the next episode will be dull,” it surprised me by being just as amazing as the last.
Earth and Mix truly delivered once again. Don’t underestimate them—they might be underrated, but they’re the best couple I’ve seen on screen. Their chemistry is phenomenal.
And that ending? Absolutely perfect. I couldn’t have asked for a better conclusion, especially with that dance scene—it was the cherry on top!
P.S. If you ever watch this series in the future, don’t forget to share your thoughts.
I've been using MDL for a long time, and one thing I've consistently noticed is that most reviews tend to focus only on the negatives. It's genuinely rare to find a review that praises a series or highlights its strengths. This isn’t something I’ve seen just for one country’s dramas—people seem to point out flaws no matter where the show is from.
Because of this, I decided not to rely on MDL reviews or anyone else's opinions before watching a series myself. I try to give every show a fair chance so I don’t end up missing a masterpiece just because of someone else’s negativity.
Take Last Twilight for example—it's such a beautiful series, and honestly, I’d call it a masterpiece. But when I checked the reviews on MDL, most people were just busy pointing out the flaws instead of appreciating what made it special.
I also watched I Told Sunset About You a month ago and loved it. But when I looked at the reviews for I Promised You the Moon, they were mostly negative. A lot of people were upset about the cheating storyline involving Teh. While I don’t think what Teh did was right, I do believe we need to see things from his perspective too. He’s just a teenager—maybe 19 or 20—going through a tough time. Being away from family is already hard enough. In the later episodes, you can sense that he felt isolated. Oh Aew had a lot of new friends, and when he got a tattoo without telling Teh, it might’ve made Teh feel like he was no longer an important part of Oh Aew’s life—even if that wasn’t true.
Again, I’m not justifying what Teh did—it was wrong. But I really appreciated that they took a break and found their way back to each other in the end. They genuinely complete one another, and being together makes them happy.
Note: Don’t be like Teh in real life—learn only the good things from him. Because let’s be honest, you’re not going to have someone like Oh Aew who forgives everything. Be practical, be kind, and most importantly, be happy.
