Cringe

Well, it’s something fresh in cdramas, more intense and less innocent. If this would be adapted from novel, it would be novel written by 13y old.. A lot of things do not make sense, story is speed up and interactions are forced (she hang on a rope, empty space under her but she falls on the ground on him??). Although scenario is not bad, modern buildings etc, but this fake ass octopus made me laugh and I felt like watching indian drama, which is pretty lame. And one minute before this fake ass octopus they fall from the structure, falling on heart shaped balloons- how unrealistic and hilarious. I enjoy this as i’m a simple person and i like spicy things, but it’s cringe which is sad as the story has a potential. If you are inmature and haven’t red and watched good written stories you will happy.

Small Town, Smaller Sparks

"Once Upon A Small Town"
Completed: May 2026
Rating: 8.0/10

Throughout the twelve episodes,I kept wondering how Choo Young Woo ended up in this project? While the drama itself was decent, he was undeniably the stronger actor throughout. His performance as the new village veterinarian brought warmth and sincerity to the series, and at times, his interactions with the animals felt more natural and emotionally convincing than some of the relationships with the people around him.

The female lead,Joy as she is known, unfortunately, did not fully work for me. She only seemed to settle into her character much later in the drama, particularly once the dating phase began where she suddenly became more daring, expressive, and emotionally open. However, instead of strengthening the romance, it created an awkward imbalance because Choo Young Woo’s character often looked completely lost in response to her actions, almost as though he did not know how to react to this new dynamic. Rather than feeling charming, those moments became surprisingly difficult to watch.

That said, the drama still earns an 8.0/10, mainly because of the Male Lead’s performance and the refreshing absence of toxic behavior or unnecessary melodrama. Without those strengths, it probably would have landed closer to a 7.7, since the plot and characters were honestly some of the most underwhelming parts of the series. Ironically, the animals ended up being the true stars of the show, and the Male Lead’s struggles with them added a lot of charm and much-needed comic relief.

The story itself is gentle, slow-paced, and relatively uneventful, but after the emotional rollercoaster that was my last drama "Summer Strike" , marketed like a peaceful small town healing story before delivering thriller-like plot at every turn, "Once Upon A Small Town" felt like a calm recovery watch. Not particularly memorable or thrilling, but comforting enough when all you want is something soft, quiet, and stress-free.

Beautifully written and emotionally unforgettable.

I finally completed A Tale of Thousand Stars, and wow… this one is such a tearjerker.

I’m usually not a fan of slow-burn romance, and honestly, I tend to drop dramas like this halfway through. But the plot was so good and emotionally engaging that I ended up finishing it all the way through... and I’m really glad I did.

What I loved most about this drama is how meaningful the story felt. The characters were written so well, and their growth throughout the story felt natural and realistic, which made everything even more heartfelt.

This drama taught me a lot about life. Not everyone gets a second chance, so we should learn to value the life we have now. Happiness isn’t measured by material things, and sometimes the simplest moments are the ones that matter the most.

I also learned the importance of valuing yourself. Do things because you genuinely want to, not because you feel obligated to please other people. Live for yourself too.

And lastly, this drama reminded me how important forgiveness is... especially learning how to forgive yourself.

Overall, this story was beautiful, emotional, comforting, and unforgettable. Definitely one of the dramas that impacted me deeply and will stay with me for a long time.

7/10 Chaos Meets Order

I was captivated from the first episode, even if the initial performance was over the top
It's not pushing any boundaries and may struggle to compete in the current Thai GL-rich environment.
It lacks depth, but at the same is a fun watch, contains nothing new, but it is charming and captivating.
It inevitably contains a few pet hates, such as a lack of communication and story logic failure, but also does not fall into the trap of a rushed or poor last episode.
Contains a disturbing scene, followed by an ill-timed kiss, which should be removed
Secondary couple were good, and thier story was fine. The primary couple were OK but did not buy into the chemistry. I think the personalities of the characters they were playing were too extreme in their differences, which made it fun and funny, but not romantic.
I only give high ratings rarely as you need space to go up and down, but if I give 7 stars or more, it means I think it is worth watching.
Not going to stir up your emotions at all, but it's worth watching.

10/10 Romantic and funny

10/10 Romantic and funny
What a wonderful GL! It blends comedic humor perfectly, the actresses have such a natural lightness to their performances, the story is engaging and captivating from the very beginning, and I'm really looking forward to the next episodes. Lal and Wine are two completely different characters, yet they are drawn to each other, and each one always has something to teach the other. The actresses Jan and Jingjing are absolutely amazing in these roles.
Amazing chemistry of JanJingjing, they really portrayed the LalWine accurately to the novel. This series will heal my leemhaina wound. I love the novel so much as much as this series does and I can't wait for them to fall deeper in the hole they dug starting with the benefits. This is just the beginning but the tension is giving.

A Slice of Depression

Starting this review of by saying acting was amazing. I had some reservations about GYJ's acting which she sucessfully overcame. Since I had seen other actors in other dramas, I wasn't really worried about overall quality of the performances.
What left me somewhat cold was the writing. I understood what the writer was going for, but some of the comedic and melodramatic moments felt out of place. Overall, directing and music choices fit the drama genre very well.
My review probably leaves you wondering why I gave this drama only 7.5. The reason is quite simple. If you're already struggling mentally, this drama will likely leave you feeling even more depressed. Because of that, I think it's important to watch it at the right time.

An inspiring tale of entrepreneurship

What I loved most about “My Destiny” was the entrepreneurial and ambitious side woven into the story. Instead of focusing only on romance, the drama highlighted hard work, determination, and building something meaningful through persistence and vision.
Tan Song Yun gave such an inspiring performance, portraying a woman who balances emotion, independence, and ambition so naturally. Her character’s growth, resilience, and drive made the story feel refreshing and motivating. I especially appreciated how the drama showed the realities of chasing success — the setbacks, sacrifices, pressure, and personal growth that come with pursuing your goals.
It’s the kind of drama that leaves you feeling inspired to work harder toward your own dreams.
If you enjoy dramas with strong character growth, ambition, business-minded themes, and heartfelt storytelling, “My Destiny” is definitely worth watching.
