We Deserve a Second Season…
It was a good watch but should have been longer.I like the story, the angst, the acting, the chemistry, but not the ending.
The ending is just unacceptable. We deserve at least an episode or two to see their lovely happy ending.
Anyways, taking what we can get, but if you're wondering if you should give this one a chance, you should.

Talk About a Good Kdrama…
This was definitely a very good watch.Now, it’s not a show for everyone but it is a great show.
This Kdrama touches on some really heavy themes and it’s as intense as it gets, but all in a very very good way.
I have so many good things to say about it, but I’ll just tell you to watch it if you haven’t yet.

Unlabelled Asexuals, Allosexuals and the Tragic Dynamic of Allo-Ace Relationships
By the way, the headline is the title of a literary analysis piece that I wrote about this beautiful work of art titled - When It Rains It Pours.I have so much to say about this and will come back to edit this review.
For now, let me just say this BL show is more than just a BL show.
I watched it and the story stayed with me for days …

It’s Actually Not Even That Bad…
I mean I have watched worse BLs and personally I did not hate this one.It’s just one of those lighthearted JBLs to watch “on a rainy day” (see what I did there? 😉)
Anywayssss, about the story? It’s nothing too intense but slightly intense? I feel like the show would have been better with a simple and ordinary storyline. But it seems the writer wanted the story to be “deep and touching” but that didn’t really happen so the plot kinda fell in between?
None of what I’ve said makes sense to you??? Okay! Okay! Watch it and you’ll see what I mean…

A Breeze of Not-a-Bad-Watch…
Okay, I actually finished this one many months ago but yeah just deciding to leave a review today.Honestly, it was a good watch and I liked the MC and ML’s chemistry.
Like I said it’s been a while and I can’t remember much of what happened in this BL show, but I know it was not even a bad watch at all.
I mean the storyline is nothing extraordinary, but it was worth watching.

Rock-hearted Possessive ML Falls in Love Deeply
I have only good things to say about this show so far. It’s for sure one of the best KBLs we’ve had this year and I’m so grateful for that.Now to the review, you know I always keep it simple to avoid spoilers, but this series tells the story of a possessive but warm-hearted man who falls in love with his soft, honest and easy-going flatmate…
But wait, there’s more to the story, eager to find out?? Then, you should watch it!

Slowburn, Intense Chemistry and Story That Keeps You at the Edge of Your Seat
Okay listen, I have nothing but good things to say about this BL!As someone who’s a big fan of Lakorns, this right here? ANOTHER AMAZING LAKORN from one31. They just don’t miss!
And yes, I’ll say it proudly… I like generic tropes. If you watch enough Lakorns, you already know how these stories usually go. It’s predictable, it’s dramatic, it’s emotional, and honestly? That’s exactly why I love it. This “cliché” setup? I’ll eat it up every single time. I never get tired of it.
Also, if you’re like me and you prefer seeing actual feelings develop — like slow-burn, real chemistry — and not just random NC scenes thrown in every episode… this one’s for you. The pacing is chef’s kiss; it builds so naturally, and every episode just makes you want to watch the next.
I binged all eight episodes in one sitting (no regrets) and I’m saving the last four to binge together again. So if you’re not watching yet, I’ll assume you’re just letting it marinate too, so you can watch it all at once like me…
Honestly, it’s such a beautiful story; to say i’m obsessed would be an understatement cos I AM OBSESSED.
Definitely on my Best BLs of 2025 list already!

A Must-Watch for all Chinese BL Fans!!!
I can't get over this one!!!See, I knew right after watching the first episode that I had to let it marinate before watching! And five episodes out, I went back to it and wish I had been patient enough to wait for all nine episodes.
It is a good watch!
Don't even hesitate, get into it! And please don't skip after the first two episodes because let me tell you something, episode three is where it starts to hook you in!
I have so much to say about this show but I'll save it! You should watch it and see for yourself.
I'll just say one thing though - THE DETECTIVE AND THE INVESTIGATOR???!!! EXCUSE MEEE!!! Side romance that we didn't know we needed.
I haven't read the story, so I'm new to the whole thing but will definitely be reading it later.
Why are you still reading? Start the show already!!!!

Not a Fan of Horror Shows And…
This one is no different.Yeah, that’s it. Personally, I’ve never been a fan of horror shows but I decided to watch this one cos it’s BL (duhh) and I liked the ML in Paradise of Thorns.
Yeah, I still like his acting here and it’s the reason I’ve watched all released episodes so far. Keng is an amazing actor.
Now about this BL show? Idk man. It’s a weird one is all I can say. Aside the fact that it’s horror (a genre I don’t like) it has nothing else to make up for being a genre that’s a hard-watch for me.
The romance aspect? It’s just so-so. I liked the second leads romantic interactions (not so much) but it’s a good reason to give this a try if you want to.
I’m dropping this show but I don’t regret watching it and won’t ask for my time back lol.
However, it is just NOT my type of story AT ALL.
I do not like the plot, the reincarnation trope too has never been my favorite, also the romance is kinda like a by the way and the horror aspect takes the forefront.
You might like it, who knows? Watch to find out, I guess…

Well, I Love Shows about… Food
I don’t have much to say about this drama because unlike many other viewers, I did not watch it for the plot.Okay, wait omg, hear me out, yeah sure, a show should have a good storyline for you to watch and enjoy it BUT I didn’t go into this one hoping to enjoy the plot.
In all honesty, if you ask me what the story is about, I’ll probably have nothing to say.
“So, why the 7.5 ratings if the story is forgettable?” 😏
I’ll tell you.
THE FOOD. THE COOKING. HOW THE CHARACTERS TREAT FOOD LIKE IT IS PURE ART.
That’s all. That’s the only reason this drama show was a good watch for me.
I just love the cooking, the food, the trad cooking competition …
Now if you’re looking for a fascinating romcom drama, or something with romance that will make you swoon, this is not that show.
Oh, I also have to add that Lee Chae Min outdid himself with this one. His acting was commendable. And to think I almost didn’t watch this because I was scared he might not be the best cast for the “Tyrant King” character. But surprisingly, he proved himself as a versatile actor.
Anywaysss, that being said, is this a terrible show? Absolutely not! Is it a great one? Umm, not really.

Best Thai BL of the Year Yet…
I don’t know what else Thailand has for us this year but THIS ONE?!!! It is AMAZINGGGG.OMG, reminded me of how much I miss watching great Thai BL shows like this one.
First of all, I love the boys sooooo much. The ML and MC just always have good chemistry together so we have that to thank for this show too.
Overall, the storyline is really good so far and I look forward to watching more episodes.
I don’t want to say much but I’ll edit this as I watch. So far so so so good. Acting is good, chemistry is solid, and there is so much to look forward to.
In summary?
PLEASE WATCH IT!
EDIT - Five episodes in, and to say I’m obsessed with this series would be an understatement. I AM OBSESSED WITH IT. It’s been amazing so far honestly. I have only positive things to say but I know the plot would deepen as the story unfolds and ready to see how it goes.
Fridays are meaningful again, yaaay who? 🎊

I Expected So Much More…
This show is kinda like a let down? Idk, like the beginning made it seem like we’re going to get a good story, but it ended up just being…meh.I mean, it’s not terrible but the strong start might raise your hope…
All in all, wasn’t a terrible watch but it’s not on the list of my “recommendable” BL shows.

I Yearn for a Second Season…
This show will be a little above “okay” if there’s a follow up season…Why?
The ending feels so rushed and we didn’t get to see the characters “experience” each other in a romantic way.
I don’t even know where to fit this on the romance chart because it was all just angst from episode one to the last.
Oh, we did get some crumbs of almost-romantic moments but how is that even all we get?
Overall, it’s not a terrible watch but more episodes would have even made it recommendable.
You can watch it but don’t expect too much.

Punk Fashion Meets Interesting Love Story
Yes, I know it’s only two episodes into the show, but this is such a solid start.I didn’t expect to like the story the way I do. I love it; the first episode had my attention from start to finish.
I haven’t read the manga so I have no idea what’s to come but I can tell this will be another great JBL.
I won’t say much about the story to avoid spoilers; but I like the concept, the punk fashion style, the characters, and the plot too so far.
I’ll edit this review as I watch, but this is for anyone wondering if they should start this show - YOU SHOULD!

A Good One But First Throw Away Your Moral Compass
I want to say CBLs are notorious for making shows with morally grey characters, but you probably already know that too…Now, about this show? It’s not in any way a bad watch but I won’t call it a show for everyone.
If you love fluffy, cute, sweet, morally right…type of BLs, then please don’t bother with this one. The story is complex, dark, and not fluffy.
HOWEVER, if you want something that will keep you watching and characters that (will) know how to sway each other; this is the one!
The characters in this story are what I’ll call - good for each other.
It’s just two episodes in (I’ll edit this review as I watch) but so far the story is suspenseful and I can’t wait to see how everything unfolds.
If you want to watch it, then don’t hesitate, just do and see for yourself!
