A short drama which made me think of Project S series of dramas . It features a group of young people trying to sort out their problems through dancing and in the process become fast friends. The issues dealt with here are many but mostly transphobia and internet toxicity. There is an amazing trans character, frankly rarely seen in thai dramas and for her only this is so worth the watch. The only bad side of this drama is its length: it is too short and therefore somewhat rushed! I watched it on Vipa PBS via Google translate and, though the translation got messy with names and pronouns, it was ok if you listen what the characters are saying.
king of cringe... almost 30 and acting like a teen..
He does look 13....🤣 Unfortunately for him, he suffers from looking too young and is therefore typecast. But it is starting to be difficult to watch. I am watching him now in Beating Again and he is again playing the cute sensitive gay boy.....

Thank you! They seem to have some of these reel dramas edited together for our viewing pleasure. I have been intrigued by the good reviews but not enough to go through 45 separate 2min episodes and more in the apps!
I should probably update my review here....I cringe when I read what I wrote two years ago. I was so under the…
You are so right about TMS2! When are the directors/producers going to understand that the writing is what is important? She wanted to create a conflict here (which was bound to happen considering the main couple's characters) but she went the wrong way about it. There are so many ridiculous things in that drama. I watched it twice and never again: too long and too messy!
I would like you to write another one of your funny and accurate reviews so shall I recommend something so awful that it is actually fun to watch? Battle of the Writers, a recent Thai bl! I am watching it now and enjoying how bad it is: the actors are too cute (too much lipstick!) and it is full of tropes, the plot and the editing are all over the place and yet I cannot drop it (currently on ep 5): there is some nice chemistry and it is also so fun to watch 5 gay web novels writers brainstorming a BL xianxia!
Or, if you can bear the reel format, there is Match Play, a Korean BL, probably one of the best this year but ruined by the vertical format. Another plot similar to TMS (an idol actor & a stuntman) but more coherent...
I am sorry to hear about your family crisis: I hope everything will be alright soon. Stay strong!

I just discovered that there is a daily limit(3!) to how many pages of that site I can access for free: afterwards I need to pay so it is better to have the direct link to the drama instead of browsing through the site....now I need to wait until tomorrow!
Would it be possible to have this list with explanations of why these dramas have the worst endings: just a clue like HE or not! It is the first thing I look up before watching a drama. I go through comments looking for my answer, is it HE, SE or OE for the main pair! I never watch airing dramas because I don't know how they will end and I need my HE!!!
I should probably update my review here....I cringe when I read what I wrote two years ago. I was so under the spell of this romance that I was willing to overlook its many flaws (no excuse for bad taste: sometimes our brains need trash shows to relax! This one helped me when I was down so...I am fond of it!). But only this one! The rest of the director's works frankly got from bad to worse.
To My Star 2 was too long and again, fraught with plotholes and unnecessary characters. Nevertheless, I was so happy to see these two characters back that I ate it all up. Twice. And then I realized what a load of nonsense (let's stay polite!) and bad writing and acting the whole series was. They should have just made a 90min film for the fans !
As for her other BLs.... Blueming was...blue??? Or am I mistaking it for The Eighth Sense? I don't remember either! Let Free The Curse etc.etc., was along the same lines and I could not finish it: idiotic storyline, lack of logic, a 12 year time jump with same actors (!) and completely unlikeable characters. The audience is so starved for good stories that they're going to lap up anything as long as it comes from the right direction :TMS was huge so everything she does is considered excellent! Actually it is not!
Have you seen anything interesting lately? I am desperately looking for something good to watch ...;-)
Unfortunately, the bite-sized reels format is here to stay. it attracts thousands of views within a short timeframe.…
Oh noooooooo! Why did they have to come up with this format??????
So we just need to wait for tiktok to die its natural death like facebook, snapchat and instagram when the next generation of teens discover the next social network....
The poster is awful.... And korean netizens are the worst! At least this is fiction but it looks very real as far as toxic internet society which has the upper hand and controls celebrities...
I am watching this for a Watch Challenge and I am suffering: why do they need 11 episodes for this rubbish...Unfortunately I never watch anything at 2x speed though I am sorely tempted now! .Thankfully there is your review to help pass time. I probably know it by heart now.;-). Because this Is awful...I see other reviews waxing about chemistry and growth and courage and all I can see is the unrealistic Eh?! boy character apparently raised in a cave with no electricity far away from other humans and completely uneducated (some say he's autistic!). When he innocently asked "Two men? Is it possible? ", I just found myself incredulously shaking my head at the screen. Nobody can be that stupid (or innocent and naive as they are trying to present him) in this day and age. On the upside, you are so right about Iwase Yoji....🥰 I am definitely NOT the target audience for this "work of art"....
Cute and fluffy? All I see is obsession, stalking, adoration, hero worship, lack of education (two men together, is that even possible? Really, Japan? In this day and age?)etc. all of this presented as innocence... And slow so slow.... 3/10 and I am being generous here!
I am watching this now and just cannot help but linking the current events to this film which shows corruption between politicians and the rich....so frustrating and rage inducing! Those rich people and politicians think that they are above the law!
