Incredibly h*rny

I've seen differences in opinion on how good and bad it is, which.. valid.
Some people believe that basically P'Sorn grooms Jun the whole time in a creepy p*d0phi!e way, but I only thought like that after watching it and seeing other people talking about it.
(That being said, I don't really feel like he was gr0oming him, I think he actually loves him, just a few of the earlier intimate scenes seem like sorn comes onto Jun quite forcefully and Jun doesn't want it so much)
Watching it before seeing that, I loved it (I do love some smutty bls but that's besides the point)

I liked jun as a character because they gave him room to grow (he didn't take all the room offered to be frank, but still) and sorn wound up being a not-terrible boyfriend in the end, and also the side characters ate down but in a cute way.

I like the way sorn handled the guy that was talking to jun (the s*x while on the phone actually made me laugh out loud).

AND I loved them actually showing c0nd0ms, l*be, and the gagging while blowing eachother is SO refreshing (wow I sound crazy) but you never see that!! And it was so well done! It really felt a bit like soft 🌽 but in a good way!?
I've watched a lot of bls, and am nearly immune to the spicy tingle at this point, but MS delivered and I still rewatch some of the 🍆 scenes when I need a little oomph! Also Jun as a power bottom is hot asf

tw: physical and psychological abuse, parental neglect

the actors were great. they were able to convery their emotions to the scenes required.

i think my main issue why i couldn’t fully love the drama is because of the storyline and its progression.

i felt like the real mother and father of the directer didn’t get the karmic ending they deserve.

the real mom just slapped some money into a certain issue and called it a day. even in the presscon scene she didn’t protect her child. like wtf.

until the end, there was no resolution to fix her relationship with him.

the father was a lost cause and honestly he deserves to be in jail. the scenes about him were so bad that just watching it makes me traumatized. to say those scenes are dark is putting it lightly. honestly, a trigger warning should be placed regarding those scenes.

the relationship between the leads were sweet, the last two episode seemed to dragged, and they could’ve written it more maturely, but they chose the very dramatic route, so yeah, not impressed with that too.

the two other supporting couples were okay to watch. but really not gripping to the story.

but still, too much of the important parts seemed glossed on… it’s like a sublte jab to reality that not all evil people get the bad ending in life they deserve.

Sad but true

I hesitated for a long time before watching Revamp, but since I was going through that phase between series, I decided to give it a try.

Unfortunately, I believe GMMTV sometimes acquires actors simply to prevent the competition from having them, rather than actually producing quality projects that make good use of their talent.

BounPrem had already delivered some really good work when they were with another production company, which makes it quite embarrassing to watch this series and see such an almost childish script, poorly written and poorly developed, with a budget that clearly seems far below that of other productions from the company.

What can be salvaged from Revamp is the main couple's attempt to deliver good performances and create good chemistry. Even that chemistry was negatively affected by the script. Anyone who watched Between Us knows exactly what I'm talking about.

Barcode's attempt to develop a character that fans had been waiting for for a long time, especially because it marked his return to series, was also undermined by the poor script he was given.

Then we have AJ and JJ, who were unable to deliver the comedic scenes that are so characteristic of these brothers. Unfortunately, the script and production of Revamp buried some great actors.

These are actors who have already given us some wonderful experiences in other series. I just can't stop loving BounPrem...

What exactly is the point supposed to be about?

I don't know what just watched, this is one Kmovie with the most sex scenes, like what are you trying to show us? I don't get it, like how can these people not get a consequences of what I'm looking for, but the was none, I felt bad for his wife. What can I feel for a disgusting affair, or what am I supposed to feel? I don't get it, lives were ruined, mistress didn't get a consequence, the wife prolly raise the baby alone, they don't even bother to add how betrayed she felt. Omg. I don't understand this movie at all neither the good reviews, just leaving bad taste in the mouth.

First impression

You can watch it on GagaOOLala: https://www.gagaoolala.com/en/videos/8563/hold-on-harutora-kun-2026
or Viki: https://www.viki.com/tv/41670c-hold-on-harutora-kun#episodes

I like it. It's a pretty good series. I really enjoy it so far, and I'm excited to see more. My eventual rating was 7.5 after the first episode, but I upped it to 8.5 after watching the second episode. It is definitely growing on me the more i watch.

Episode 1:
* Everything is happening pretty fast. I don't know how I feel about it.
* I like the contrast between the main characters and how they show their feelings.
* Those guys are disgusting. I really thought that if not friends, they at least were civil with Sui, but that couldn't be further from the truth. They had no right to out him in that way.
* I'm happy to see Harutora accepting Sui after all, especially with everything Sui had to go through before.
* Harutora trying to "become Sui's type" is weirdly adorable.
* And more fish kisses, eh... It is what it is, I guess.

Episode 2:
* Harutora is so down bad for Sui.
* Harutora really just wears his heart on his sleeve.
* I understand that Daiki is trying to be a good friend or whatever. But he just sounds mean, basically telling his friend to hide himself and to not trust anyone. So weird.
* Harutora finding a bathing place where he and Sui can go without Sui having to worry about other people is incredibly thoughtful of him. He is genuinely a giant green flag.
* So happy to see Harutora stand up for Sui.

Episode 3:
* Going commando outside just because you want to take your relationship a step further with your boyfriend is kind of crazy.
* I'm so happy to see Sui being happy, he really deserves it.
* It's nice how Harutora is always there for Sui, making him feel safe, giving him confidence to move forward and become a better person.

A good surprise

Usually i dont watch drama with 24 or less episodes, especially when each episode is 20-25 minutes, they are almost always cheap with bad writing and acting. BUT this time i dont know why i tried this one and it's a very nice surprise, its still have the problem of being too short.

The most important thing in this drama is the chemistry between the FL and the ML, very fast you forget about the global plot or side plots and you just want the scenes with the FL and Ml who are very powerfull. Even the set and the global production look very good, it's not cheap at all.

It's time to give at this FL a main role in a bigger drama!

Development is a stronghold

Honestly this wasn’t anywhere in my watchlist as I like to read synopsis and plan out what I should watch. Came across it in a readily platform, clicked and stayed to the end. Even now as it’s ended, I still have lingering thoughts.

What I liked is the way this story paced. You’re introduced the plot clearly of two young people, clearly different backgrounds and struggles, to lovers. Hundreds likened plots but the pace here is good. Writing is very good as I became engrossed in the story. There isn’t a boring part as it developed.

Loved the acting. Main leads are very natural, no overboard. Just watch. Here is a great love story of growth .

Is the series about Jet or about the two Janes? too much attention is paid to an imbecile who doesn't know how to behave, is illiterate, self-absorbed and self-righteous and everyone should tremble at him!

The house, pharmacy and land are valued at 5 million baht and the agency is asking for 10 million? Jet should not go to prison, but should stay there for the rest of his life.

The acting is very bad, Heng Thatpong Rojsangruang has pronounced ugly gums which presents him in a bad context and a very ugly facial expression. Tee Boonyakait Wongsajaem is a good actor but I think at 33 he is too old for BL series!

The story doesn't have any direction, little by little, it comes down to the people on the sidelines, instead of focusing on the main characters. Is Jet more important than the two Janes???

It's as if the director doesn't exist, when someone else is conducting the orchestra!

The series was watered down a lot, and then 5 years "passed" in a minute, everything could fit into one movie of about 100 minutes.

All in all, very bad, but it looked like it was going to be a very good series!!!

Dreams don’t have to mean Goodbye

I really enjoyed this drama, especially the chemistry between the main leads and the way their relationship was built throughout the story. I loved watching them grow both individually and as a couple, and I also really enjoyed the side characters and their stories.

However, I was quite frustrated with some of the decisions towards the end. I had no problem with her going to Canada to study and grow professionally. I actually think that was an important part of her character development. What bothered me was the decision to end their relationship because of it. After everything they had been through and everything they had built together, it felt unnecessary and, honestly, a little frustrating.

I also wish we had seen more of her perspective during the years they were apart. We clearly saw how much he suffered, but we barely got to see what she was feeling or whether she struggled with the separation too. Because of that, their reunion felt a little too easy considering how much time had passed.

Overall, I really liked this drama and definitely got emotionally invested in the characters. The chemistry and the development of their relationship were definitely the highlights for me, but I think the ending could have been handled much better.

A very enjoyable drama, but one that left me wishing for a little more. 7.5/10.

I can't find the right words...

(only minor spoilers) This film was phenomenal, really. It was engaging and emotional. It was sad. It started sad, it ended sad. Jeff Satur is such an amazing actor and he really sold his character to me. Keng was a ray of sunshine and I loved him. The visuals were very good and the OST was beautiful. Jeff Sutur's Rain Wedding is beautiful. That said, I probably won't watch this movie again. It was very sad and aggravating at some points. In the end, there was no winner in the feud. The end of the film shocked me into silence for a good while. I still haven't quite processed what happened. 10/10 but I don't recommend to people who are extremely sensitive.

Am I in left field?

I had noticed the overall rating the MDL has by its viewers on Overdo and was really shocked by it being so low. I have now started it and am beginning episode 10, and I actually really like it! I think the costumes and sets are "right on" for this era. The acting is excellent (IMO Zhang Ling He and Chang Wu Ran only get better with each new series). The storyline is intriguing with mystery and twists.

There are reviews on this page left by people who supposedly watched all 33 episodes which are so hostile towards it, and I just don't get it. If it was so bad, why did so many keep watching it until the end? I can't help but think that, as I see quite often, that people who are so negative about a drama only watched the first few episodes yet felt like they had the authority to give a review of it which I find ridiculous. BTW, I have liked all episodes so far and the music is anywhere from enjoyable to lovely and appropriate for that era.

Since I am only on episode 10, I can only comment on my perception of it through this point, and at this point, I am eager to keep watching.
