"I cannot reach you" but it reached me
This BL is really cute. I liked the contrast in personalities between both male leads and the story moved at a good pace! This BL is an easy watch and very light-hearted. Perfect for a bite-sized BL and if you don't feel like watching something super heavy.I liked the chemistry between the leads too and the slow build-up was perfect.

A feel-good university romance with a lot of fluff
Hidden Agenda is a good BL with an interesting plot and a great cast.The plot starts out strong and we are immediately swept up into getting to know the characters for around two episodes whilst the groundwork is set for the rest of the plot. I thought the pursuit was fun to watch and had some cute moments. The main couple is sweet, and I personally enjoy university plots with angsty and confused feelings.
Watch this drama if you enjoy the following genres: university, romance, fluff, sweet, pining, confused feelings, slight angst and a few steamy kiss scenes.
I’ve seen many other reviews of people hating on this drama for no reason. I’ve mainly seen people insult Dunk’s acting skills which are perfectly fine. Whilst I agree that Joong is slightly better, I do not think that Dunk’s acting skills are bad (or as bad as some people claim). Some people said the plot was boring which I disagree, I think they just prefer action-thrillers with heavy stakes and a fleshed-out plot rather than a simple watch with a lot of fluff.

Fun plot and amazing leads
The beginning of the show was excellent, there was amazing chemistry between the main leads and it had me on the edge of my seat. I ended up giving it a 7/10 because around the second half, it slowed down a little and I found myself becoming bored with the lead couple. The second couple is what kept me watching until the end.I personally wouldn't re-watch this show although I think it was a good watch and I would recommend it to others as something light-hearted and simple.

Cute
Confused as to why it wasn't called "Love Is Like A Dog" but it's cute.It started slow although I think the leads had chemistry despite not speaking the same language. I think Mew's acting was pretty decent here. Personally wouldn't watch it again but it was an easy watch and the characters were interesting.

Best BL of 2023
Excellent casting and an INCREDIBLE OST! The characters are all super interesting and I love the character development. Khaotung did a great job playing Ray and singing the OST “let’s try”.It has some mature themes but is also playful at times, the storyline doesn’t feel boring in places and the conversations are kept concise without any boring background or filler scenes. The spicy scenes are also addicting. 10/10.
my favourite couple is SandRay. They were so cute together. The actors have amazing chemistry (really loved them in The Eclipse too).
