Ko Munyeong is truly something else. You'll hate her, you'll love her, you'll understand her, you'll laugh with her, you'll get stressed out by her. And that's a perfect example of a great main character. She is someone who will make you feel things, good or bad, but you will remember her. Definitely.
Moon Gangtae is a character who might seem boring and uninteresting at first, but as the story progresses you realize he's not that person at all. He is someone who, from a young age, had to develop a social mask to live, and this caused terrible damage to his psychological well-being and behavior.
Munyeong is the one who inspires him to break out of his shell and be who he truly is. Gangtae is the one who inspires her not to hide behind indifference and to show her vulnerability. They unintentionally end up initiating each other's healing process.
The fairy tales are beautiful and carry lessons that I will take with me for life.
I also need to applaud the performances. The script is incredible, but the story wouldn't have hit as hard if it weren't for the brilliant performances of the main cast.
One of the best series I've ever seen, without a doubt.

BEST COMFORT SHOW EVER
I honestly had so much fun watching this. One of my favorite things was how the characters actually communicated instead of dragging misunderstandings on forever. It made the relationships feel really refreshing and so much more enjoyable to watch.The chemistry between all the couples was amazing, but Pertar was easily my favorite. Every time they were on screen I couldn't stop smiling, and I was always waiting for their next interaction. Kit and Shane were adorable too, and Mon completely stole my heart. Every scene with him made me smile.
I also ended up loving the teachers way more than I expected. They were so cute, and I liked that the show balanced the romance with funny moments and emotional scenes without making it feel overdramatic.
Overall, this was such a wholesome, feel-good series. It genuinely had me smiling through most of the episodes, and a few moments even made me emotional. I finished it with the biggest smile on my face and would definitely recommend it if you're looking for a sweet BL with lovable characters, great chemistry, and healthy communication.

1Fun Rivals-to-Lovers with Great leads chemistry and no fish kisses
Subjective Gut Rating: 8.25“Fake Fact Lips” is such a fun and easy binge! I really enjoyed the first 7 (of 9) episodes. This is a really cute rivals-to-lovers drama. For a Japanese drama and an adaptation of a manga, the acting is surprisingly ‘normal’ and not over-the-top.
The leads have excellent chemistry. I enjoyed their banter over the silliest things to the final challenge that changes the course of their friendship. The drama doesn’t try hard to hide the fact that one of them has fallen in love a long time ago. Therefore, it’s fun to see how he uses this challenge to try to get the other half to fall in love. I appreciate that this is a story of two working adults, and not little kids. They don’t act like virgins who don’t know how to express themselves. Of course, they have pretty different personalities, but when it comes to expressing their feelings, even if one can’t speak it out loud, he doesn’t hesitate to go for a kiss (or more). For once, the kisses are pretty good and not dead fish kisses. The sexy scenes are done in a tasteful way, but I wanted a little less slow-motion and a little more realistic action.
The use of flashbacks effectively tells us their background story. Their friendships went deeper than just two high school students trying to be the top of the class. They talked, supported and cared for each other. It must be very difficult for them to be away from each other during their college days. But one would assume they should have kept in touch, and knew they might work for the same company. Losing touch completely seems unrealistic. But I guess that’s how the reunion can be more surprising.
My main criticism comes to the last few episodes. The introduction of a third rival made me feel uncomfortable. This character is really annoying. It would have been better if this person had a different personality. I do understand the need to test this relationship,newly transitioned from rivals to lovers. I am glad that it shows maintaining a relationship can be challenging and for the characters to finally open up and be honest with themselves and each other. I just wish it was done without that annoying character.
Overall, I had a good time binge-watching this. I definitely would recommend it if you are fans of rivals-to-lovers, and a pretty fun J-BL.

Good but not sure if it belongs in the Only Friends category
To be honest this show was good all the actors did amazing but I feel like it didnt match the toxicity of the first season. I was absolutely at a point of wanting to shake Boston during the 1st season because he was just that bad and just that cunning. It made for a good watching and I'm happy that it did not end up being a happy ending for him. During this one though there wasn't that same energy like Dean had moments were he frustrated me, mostly in the beginning because he was acting like a stalker ex, but then they smoothed that over by having them get back together. I also felt frustrated at Jack's character because he was so messy half the stuff he said didnt make a lot of sense and he did get on my nerves in the end because he basically threw what he said out the window and got back together with Dean again. Also Petes character should've been more involved, he was the only one who seemed to lean into that toxicity he had the motive and the pettiness about him where it could've made him a Boston level antagonist. However some reason GMMTV just said nah and settled with public embarrassment to end his arc. I don't know I feel like it wasn't as polished as it should've been and characters were left vague instead of being developed more.Esta resenha foi útil para você?
More Than Romance: Why Fulfill Is a Must-Watch GL Drama
Fulfill is a refreshing and heartfelt GL series that goes beyond the usual romance-focused storyline. Rather than ending with the couple getting together, the series begins after marriage and beautifully explores the realities of building a life and family together.The story of Pafun and Aioon is emotional, mature, and deeply moving. Their dream of becoming parents, the unexpected twists that enter their lives, and the challenges they face create a narrative that feels genuine and relatable. The drama balances love, heartbreak, hope, and family in a way that keeps viewers invested throughout.
Bam Saralee Prasitdumrong delivers a convincing and emotional performance as Pafun, while Oom Eisaya Hosuwan shines as Aioon. Their chemistry feels natural, and the supporting cast also contributes strongly to the story. Director Nay Saratswadee Wongsomphet deserves praise for presenting a simple yet meaningful narrative with warmth and sincerity.
If you're looking for a GL series that offers more than romance, one that focuses on love, commitment, family, and life's unexpected challenges; Fulfill is definitely worth watching. It is emotional, comforting, and a wonderful reminder that family is built through love as much as through blood.
Rating: ★★★★½ / 5
Verdict: A touching and mature GL drama with strong performances, meaningful storytelling, and a beautiful portrayal of a couple's journey toward creating the family they've always dreamed of.

this shit is PEAKKK
I have never had a drama make me laugh this much especially with the combination of stressing me out, making me giggle, making me gasp, making me WORRY like no other, than this one. It really hits all the points it sets out to make, from the competitiveness between the leads, to the FL’s murder plot, the ML’s handwritten-notes-seducing, to the sweet romance, and connection between the characters and their real lives. I really really love how this played out and how the emotional parts didn’t come short compared to the unserious parts.

A very generic story, cringe moments that are too much to handle, the characters have zero charisma, and I finished the drama without caring about any of them. Even doing something this bad requires effort, so congratulations to the writers, I guess.
The love triangle they're trying to sell doesn't work because both the male characters are toxic lunatics. The male lead is extremely aggressive, and the second lead, in addition to being aggressive, also makes a living bullying her and other people. The female lead literally has to choose between a dirt cake and a dirt cake with embedded stones. Well, at least she chose the least bad option, but still: just no.
She basically has no personality and no charisma. And considering that a character who suffers so much doesn't evoke any sympathy in me... Yeah, she's really bad.
Besides those three, I don't care enough about any of the other characters because I found them all very forgettable. The only thing that stands out in this drama is the absurd cast, but this proves that if the script is bad enough, not even a powerful cast can save it.

Felt Like a Rough Draft
I liked the ending. The problem is that story was too often choppy. The story premise is a good one but the script often left potential humor on the table unexploited. The execution lacks the polish we start to routinely see some 10+ years later.An example is an early scene after they just got married and the young unconsummated couple in formal clothes are sharing an evening celebration dinner with both sets of parents. It comes time to retire to a back bedroom - one bedroom. The groom, a bit tipsy, seizes and carries the teen bride to the bedroom, and falls onto the bed, a small bed. This is just one obvious situation that this story with this set up has to confront and we the audience can see it coming and are anticipating an answer, likely comedic, as to how the couple will get through the night. But like someone starting a good joke and then denying us the punch line, the scene just ends with them very briefly tussling on the bed. The next scene the husband is dropping his teen wife off at her high school. What happened? Just how did they manage to get through the night?
Early on it's made clear that she's 16, the age of consent, before the two are forced to marry to satisfy the last wishes of their grandfathers.

I've never really understood the second lead syndrome people have with this drama. I particularly like the couple that the drama presents, he's a jerk at the beginning, but he redeems himself, and I ended up liking him in the end.One crazy thing to me is how they try to make me believe she's considered ugly when she has THAT face, but anyway. South Korea and its weird beauty standards.
I found it funny that their grandfather called the musician useless when he's the only one of the three who's actually doing something productive with his life. Meanwhile, the lives of the other two are a mess lol.
I enjoyed watching it, but I don't think it's amazing, and there are things that annoy me. I like clichés, but sometimes I felt they were poorly executed here.

I love that the premise of the story is basically: "What would happen if Ariel fell in love with Flynn Rider instead of Prince Eric?" and it's beautifully done.The dynamic between the main couple and the main group of characters is the highlight of the drama for me. Very fun, very enjoyable to watch.
The male lead is introduced from the start as someone of dubious character, so him being an jerk to the people around him was never a problem for me. There are a few moments where he tries to control what she wears, and that reduced some points from their dynamic for me, but I'll give the show a pass because it's from 2016 and I know it took a long time for this type of behavior to stop being normalized at these korean shows.
It was my first drama and it holds a very special place in my heart.

Kimchi Jjigae with Gummy Bears
Ok...Let me tell you about my latest kdrama heartbreak. It was supposed to be Cabbage Your Life, a cozy, countryside romp about a city family dumped in the middle of nowhere, learning to farm cabbage and, presumably, themselves. It had all the ingredients for a perfect comfort watch. A fish-out-of-water premise, a "dopamine detox" vibe, the promise of community healing. I was ready to be charmed. I was ready to fall in love with a grumpy village chief and a bumbling corporate dad.And then the romance happened. And I dropped it like a hot potato. Or should I say, a rotten cabbage.
Let me back up. The show sets up this wonderful, classic scenario: Sung Tae Hoon (Park Sung Woong), a big-shot corporate guy, gets forcibly relocated to the rural village of Yeonri-ri with his family. He knows nothing about farming. His wife, Jo Mi Ryeo (Lee Soo Kyung), is a "super mom" who raised their kids alone. Their kids are a mess: a med student who secretly dropped out, a troublemaker desperate to get back to Toronto, and a cute youngest son. The stage is set for Schitt's Creek in Korea. A wealthy, clueless family meets a quirky, tight-knit community. Hijinks ensue. Hearts are warmed. It's a formula that works. It's a formula that has worked, beautifully.
But here is where it all goes wrong. The show, in its infinite wisdom, decided that what this perfectly good family comedy really needed was a forced, tepid romance between the eldest son, Ji Cheon (Lee Jin Woo), and the village chief's daughter, Bo Mi (Choi Gyu Ri). And not just a little romance. A love triangle, because apparently, we cannot have a kdrama without a damn love triangle!
Let me be blunt: I have absolutely zero patience for this stuff. None. Zip. Nada. The moment the show started hinting at this narrative detour, my eyes glazed over. It was not just unnecessary; it was actively annoying. It is like being served a beautiful, steaming bowl of kimchi jjigae and then finding a handful of gummy bears floating in it. What are you doing? Why are you ruining a perfectly good thing?
And the worst part? The actors playing this couple have all the romantic chemistry of a wet paper towel. Watching them is like watching two mannequins being pushed together by an invisible hand. There is no spark, no heat, no anything. Every time they appeared on screen, I felt my soul leave my body. I would find myself suddenly fascinated by the texture of my ceiling, or counting the tiles on my floor, just to have something, anything, to look at other than their wooden, lifeless interactions. It was so close to being Schitt's Creek coded. So close! That show understood that the romance was a side dish, not the main course. The heart of that show was the family's ridiculous, beautiful, painful growth. Here, the romance felt like an anchor dragging the entire ship down.
And then there is the other thing. The thing that made me want to throw my remote at the TV.
The kids speak in broken English. Because they went to Canada.
Now, look. I get it. They are supposed to be from Toronto. But the execution is so painfully cringey, it is like listening to a bad high school play. It is not cute. It is not funny. It is just embarrassing. It feels like the writers went, "How do we show these kids are from abroad? I know! Let us have them randomly insert English words into every sentence, but make sure they sound like they are reading from a textbook from 1985." It pulled me right out of the story every single time. I'm Canadian, we don't talk like that!
All of this: the forced romance, the lack of chemistry, the broken English. It all adds up to one big, missed opportunity. This show could have been a Schitt's Creek. It could have leaned hard into the "fish out of water" theme. It could have given us a family of lovable, flawed weirdos slowly finding their place in a community that initially rejects them. Instead, it gave us this. A show that could not trust its own premise, that felt the need to shoehorn in tired tropes because it was too scared to just be a simple, good-hearted comedy about family and cabbage.
The reviews call it a "cozy, pollution-free comedy", a "dopamine detox", "masterful storytelling". And maybe, for some people, it is. Maybe they can look past the forced romance and the awkward English and see the heart of the show. But for me? It was a betrayal of everything it promised to be. It was so close to being great. So close. And that is what makes it so much more frustrating.
So I am moving on. There are too many good dramas out there to waste my time on one that does not respect its own potential. Cabbage Your Life had a chance to be something special. Instead, it chose to be mediocre. And I, for one, have no patience for mediocre.

I’m glad that I watched it
What a show. The show was so good that I finished it in 2 days. Watched all episodes back to back and I have a love hate relationship ship with it. It’s a super slow burn romance but with really good story that makes me want to watch moreThe cast of the show is super good. I loved how all of them matched together
Lee Jung Jae as Im Hyeon is a very unique MC. He is playing a role of a rich actor and for the first time the MC was not doing weird stuff. He was not reserving whole restaurant just for a date or other stuff that you usually saw rich MCs do. Instead he is a patient character who have is own problems and get better during the show
Im Ji Yeon as Wi Jeong Sin is your general cute FMC which I really liked. She is super lovely and cute
Kim Ji Hoon as Ju Jae Hyeong started his role as love rival for MC but later find a better place. Really loved him after I finished the show
Seo Ji Hye as Yun Hwa Yeong was the reason I watched this show. I watched “crash landing on you” before and really loved her acting. Because of that I add this show to my watchlist and her acting in here was also a banger. She was shown as a lead female but unfortunately with less focus on her. Still love how she plays her role. It was great
I’m not going in details for each side character but I love them all
The story is super good. It’s interesting, have a good mystery, great pacing, but one thing I didn’t like that much was some aspects of the story
The show starts a mystery at ep 1 then forgot about it until ep 12-14. Or if it’s not forgotten the hints are super small and forgivable. It’s not only about the mystery but I feel that in some other parts of the story as well. If I want to break story into some smaller stories I would organize it this way:
1- main love story (which can be broken in 1st and 2nd half with 1st half being MC and his rivalry chasing for FMC and 2nd half is when FMC understands her feeling towards MC until the end)
2- sub love story (romance between other couple)
3- mystery story
4- the general story of the show that everything is happening during that
1- main love story is good in general. The first half is perfect. The 2nd half is good. Doesn’t felt as good as first half but it was still good
2- sub love story had feels to be shorten. I felt like some stuff are happening without a very good explanations or they could implanted better. It was understandable but could be better
3- the mystery and how the show deals with the bad guys were meh to me. It felt rushed, shorten, and unexplained. There was a character who seems to be a bad character at first. And later we found out she is a victim as well. But the show doesn’t give us a proper explanation about what happened to any of them afterwards. I think they tried to keep everything half way open so viewers can decide things for them selves but when it comes to other aspects we have lots of ideas about what happened or why that happened but about the mystery it feels like out of nowhere. No explanation, no story. Just being there because writer want it to be there
4- general story was the best imo. It was what I really liked the most. The show is a comedy melodrama and in the story they joke a lot that if MC wants to play a melodrama he will only end up with a support roles or guest roles. I really liked how they connect the show story to the actual show and I found it kinda funny
Thanks for reading this far. My last word for you: if you are looking for something fun to watch which actually worth it this one is the one imo

Uma Fofura Clichê
Mais uma vez a GMM me entrega mais do mesmo, só que com uma roupagem toda trabalhada nos picos de glicose e a estreia de um novo ship. Apesar disso, não dá para negar que a série consegue entregar momentos fofos e um entretenimento leve para quem quer apenas desligar o cérebro e curtir um romance clichê. Não esperem coesão do enredo, pois como todo bom BL onde o foco principal é somente o amor, tudo o que importa é fazer o coração do telespectador derreter, ignorando completamente o bom senso e o peso da realidade. Furos de roteiro, resoluções mágicas e dramas adolescentes previsíveis estão no pacote, mas se você for de peito aberto sabendo disso, a jornada diverte.Para mim, foi uma experiência agridoce, mas que me conquistou puramente pelo carisma, resiliência e versatilidade do personagem de Keen (Moo). Impossível a gente não se apaixonar por ele e por toda a energia caótica, fofa e divertida dele. Ele é literalmente a alma da série! Mas não posso dizer o mesmo de seu parceiro Sea (Kang). Kang não tinha me conquistado de início, porém, confesso que ele começou a cair nas minhas graças ao mostrar um lado altruísta e zeloso. O ápice do personagem foi a cena em que ele confessa à mãe que gosta do Moo: um momento de uma delicadeza, leveza e sensibilidade palpáveis que me emocionou muito pela representatividade e didática, tratando nossas vivências com humanidade e longe de um drama punitivo. Mas após esse momento distinto, Kang só confirmou novamente a minha primeira impressão dele: um personagem tedioso, inexpressivo e com nuances de emoção. A dinâmica de Moo e Kang acabava ficando em desequilíbrio por conta dessa disparidade de energia. Enquanto o Keen entregava absolutamente tudo, o Sea parecia travado na maior parte do tempo, fazendo com que o romance principal morresse na praia em vários momentos com a embromação do enredo e a castidade dele.
O que o casal principal falhava em entregar, o maravilhoso casal secundário Tae e Payos (Un Napat e Ashi) entregou de sobra. Toda a tensão, o desejo, a paixão e o amor adolescente estavam presentes entre eles, com uma química orgânica e deliciosa de acompanhar que roubou completamente os holofotes para mim. Mesmo com a deliciosa atuação e carisma de Keen e a dinâmica do casal secundário, o roteiro infelizmente se perde da metade da série para frente, ao criar dramas desnecessários, escolhas óbvias e por jogar a coesão para o espaço. É o típico BL onde o amor resolve qualquer problema, independentemente da realidade ou escolhas. E isso acabou me fazendo perder o interesse pela história, me fazendo ir até o fim somente para escrever esse review.
Resumindo, “Only Boo!” não traz nada novo e sofre com os velhos vícios de roteiro do gênero, mas compensa com as atuações de Keen, a química do casal secundário e a overdose de momentos fofos, doces e engraçados e por isso minha nota vai ser apenas um 06. Para quem gosta de algo leve, doce e divertido e não liga para narrativas genéricas ou sem sentido, pode ser um passatempo válido. Caso contrário, fuja! No fim, a GMM me deve algumas horas de vida, mas Keen e o casal secundário ganharam meu respeito. Uma pena que o potencial de um elenco tão promissor tenha sido desperdiçado em mais uma fórmula batida.
Nota: 06/10
Não Recomendo! ⭐⭐⭐

this couple is so stressful to watch. they fight every damn episode and its not even cute.
the characters are all poorly written and some are unimportant for the plot, it doesn't matter if they're there or not.the most normal is ML even though he has his own anime moments, he just acts like a typical overprotective romantic provider rich ML, nothing new. also another thing about him is that they haven't really explored or makes sense of his past life. at first he was dreaming of joseon era which was really important to build up the time travel connection but its all forgotten like this whole drama wasn't about time travel. it makes the whole time travel/reincarnation part totally pointless because it just looks like ML would believe anything FL says even without proof whatsoever
my main problem is the female lead. they baited us by getting the actress who played villain in 'the glory' and making us believe she was a strong political figure in joseon. you think it would be interesting how this woman would navigate modern korea. if you are expecting a master manipulator mature woman then you will be disappointed because she is just your typical damsel in distress who acts like a teenager. she is hostile all the time like a tsundere anime character (and its really cringe btw), but thats all you will get for a 'strong' character. its all a facade. she is neither smart or has strong intuition, she is very childish. she sometimes acts like she finally figured things out then goes back to square one like she learned nothing. then she blames everything to ML and take out all her anger on him. its exhausting to watch. her self esteem is very fragile and ML has to comfort and spoil her while she treats him like crap. she switches up easily on ML just by any inconvenience. her character is very unlikeable and she has absolutely no chemistry with ML. she always look uncomfortable and awkward with him. if theyre not lovers in this drama i would be more convinced that she hates him.
its not a good time travel romcom either, it doesnt have that funny element of culture shock whatsoever, everybody just treats her like a modern korean girl despite her weird way of speaking. it doesnt evn feel like watching a time travel drama, its just a lil story about a couple who are constantly bickering about problems they create for themselves because theres really no strong forces in the plot that would get in their way, even the fantasy aspects, and the main villain has no strong reason to be a villain either. its like hes just forced to be a deadbeat dad so he can fulfill his stalker duties. he clearly cares about his son but the plot assigned him to stake out ML 24/7 like a walking CCTV literally watching from the dark.

Hilarious Repeat Drama
Like W this is a story about a woman (a writer this time) being sucked into her screenplay. Her character is the exact opposite of her and she has to figure out how to survive the ever-changing plotline in an effort to get home before she is killed first. Zhao Lusi brings life to a character that has been played many many many times before in Asian dramas and she did it exceptionally well. While W was heavier and more dramatic this was light-hearted and fun. It would have gotten a 10 but the storyline was pretty much typical for a drama (which is something they poke fun of in the drama)Esta resenha foi útil para você?
