It was good but I couldn't finish it.

Like I said, it was good. I felt the character's emotions and so on. Here is my review of each episode that I saw.

Episode 1-

Episode 1 was my favorite hands down. The story was really good and the acting was even better. I liked the story of a young kid who was around people who didn't accept what he was, and yet he had the happy ending. I like the "you hurt my feelings so please back off" trope, it shows that someone will do anything to gain someone's trust again.

Episode 2-

Good as the first episode. It had drama between friends who didn't feel the same way which was new to me if I'm being honest. One friend liked the other but they liked another person more, yikes am I right? I didn't like how the one friend forced herself on the other multible times even after getting rejected. The male lead was my favorite, he was sweet and understanding.

Episode 3-

This is where it started to go down hill for me. The story was a little messy and the actors didn't have enough spark in them than the other actors from the first two episodes did, they were more ehhh.

Episode 4-

Episode 4 was better than episode 3, it had more spark and more chemistry. The two main leads made me feel what they were feeling, the sadness, the joy, even the anger and disappointment. It was good, I just still think the first two were better.

Although I did enjoy it, I just didn't know if I could continue. I wanted to stop mid series just in case it got a little worse the more it goes. I have to admit I was a little scared because it was good and I didn't want to ruin it, because if it does get worse then my brian won't stop thinking about the why's and the "It should have went this way".
That is why I can't finish it, not because it was bad or cringy but because I didn't want to ruin the good episodes. You can watch it if you want, maybe you will like more than I did, maybe even be brave and watch the whole series lol.
Hope this review helped you, have a nice day. :D

Promising Premise, Disappointing Execution

My excitement for this series was initially fueled by the announcement and the intriguing trailer. However, as I watched each episode, my enthusiasm waned. What began as a potentially engaging enemies-to-lovers story devolved into a messy and illogical narrative. The series suffered from unconvincing acting, a weak plot, and a lack of character growth.

The story follows Sailom, a diligent student at a prestigious school, burdened by debts that he and his brother Saifah struggle to repay. In the same school, we have Kang, a wealthy troublemaker who bullies others and takes nothing seriously. When Kang targets Sailom's friend, Sailom emerges as a formidable adversary, leading to a complex transformation of their relationship from anger and hatred to love.

The premise of the series holds promise, but the actual execution left much to be desired. Several character decisions throughout the story raise questions. Kang's sudden shift from rejecting Sailom's confession to feeling jealous and confessing his own feelings seemed abrupt, especially given his existing affections for someone else. Sailom's actions also felt inconsistent, from running away with Kang without considering his debts to prioritizing Kang over his own incarcerated brother.

The series failed to provide adequate character development, leaving gaps in the characters' motivations and behaviors. Sailom's declaration of love for Kang raises the question of whether he still loved Kang when his friend was mistreated and humiliated by him. These inconsistencies left a significant impact.

The secondary couple, Guy and Nawa, managed to add some stability to the series, but their relationship received insufficient development. The reasons behind their constant conflicts and when their romantic feelings began to develop remained unclear.

This series struggled to live up to its title, lacking both the "dangerous" and "romantic" elements promised. There was a noticeable absence of action scenes or a consistent sense of impending danger. The romantic chemistry also fell short of expectations, with Perth's portrayal of Kang clashing with Chimon's discomfort in romantic scenes.

In conclusion, this might be worth watching for the scenes involving Guy and Nawa, who share the best chemistry in the series. However, viewers should approach the series with lowered expectations to avoid disappointment.

I Liked It!

Okay, so from first glance, this was not much of a fan favorite, but honestly, and to my surprise I liked this, Now, of course, this was far from perfect, especially in the acting department (I shall touch on this a little later) but I mean, come on -- a tall yummy boss has a slow burn with the cutesy idiot employee -- I can't pass that up. Step by Step is so legit in its title as this is the slowest of slow burns I've witnessed this year, and I loved it with all my heart.

Let's Dive In.

The plot is as basic as it gets -- the meanie boss stumbles upon the clumsy and emotional employee whom he immediately starts to admire. The end. It really is a simplistic plot with some more details on the side like a complicated side couple, a pregnant lady, and a confident fem-gay guy. Now the story flows pretty well until the end when it gets a little draggy. For one, they could've easily ended the series at episode 10 and saved us the sappy saga that was so not necessary. 11 and 12 are easily skippable, stop at episode 10 for your own good.

Now, was one of the reasons why I loved this series so much because of Man (Jeng) and his surreal looks including the body of a fucking god? Yes. It was. And I'll be shallow and say it was my favorite part of the series. but no seriously, I don't know where they found that beautiful man from, but I need more Man and any more that look like him. The way I just grunted so loud when we saw him shirtless for the first time, my goodness. Anyways, onto Jeng and Pat's romance -- I liked it. Was it because it was a slow burn? Of course, I'm a sucker for people slowly realizing they like each other, the little stares, smiles, gestures, silly flirting -- I loved it all. Though, Pat being overwhelmed by finding out Jeng was also gay was so dramatic, the writers must've been desperate for conflict. Imagine finding out that a fucking god-like creature also happens to like the same sex as you do and all you can do is wither and be sad -- tf..? I would've pounced, but maybe that's just me. They're cute -- nothing out of this world or top tier, but I did really enjoy watching their romance.

I don't love the ending of Jen and Jaab, but what we did get was everything to me. That kiss?? Top tier. show-stopping. Immaculate. Talentful. Perfection. For real, that might be the best kiss I've seen from a side couple. the emotion, the silence, the build-up, the slow to desperate -- so good. Of course, it's not good to cheat, but I can't deny a good couple when I see one. But they kind of leave off a little weird. I fast forward through the last episode so maybe Jen and Jaab get back together, but from what I see, it's left pretty open-ended. oh well.

I really loved all the side characters, specifically Bruce's character who stole the show for me. I also just love Bruce and his acting, and he did phenomenal. And Zorzo!! I love her, she did a fantastic job! And Poppy!! God, I love him too (and his body). Ying was kind of the only character that I could've done without in the series, but oh well.

Ratings:

Story: 7.5/10 - Good! Very unnecessary last two episodes, and also just a lot of office jargon that got to be a bit boring. But I loved the slow burn, I loved the side couples, and overall, I enjoyed the plot.

Acting: 7/10 - Okay so, Man is also beautiful and can act! He did a great job playing this boss role. Now for Ben -- eh. He wasn't terrible, him acting happy and goofy and playful was good, but being sad or crying was not his strong suit. The secondhand embarrassment I got from him crying so hard and yet not a tear escaped hurt. They could've at least given the dude some eye drops to sell it more, but there he was boohooing and not a tear in sight.

Music:6/10: I didn't pay much attention to it.

Recommendation value: 7/10 - I liked it, I would recommend it for many reasons, with one obviously being for Jeng's sake. I mean who would want to watch him on their scene being sexy and amazing and wonderful?

Good message but frustrating to watch.

This is another hard to rate drama for me.

In terms of enjoyment, probably 6 stars. In terms of the message that I think the drama was trying to show, probably 8 stars.

Heres why:

Enjoyment - I didn’t like the FL. I found her to be a bit of a hypocritical character. She came across as pretentious, on one hand carrying herself like she's above the instagram girls and standing proud/not being ashamed of the fact that she's not rich or doesn't care about being famous (which I loved), but then on the other hand, she found her own online success by lowkey mooching off of the instagram girls' popularity and making decisions that keep putting her in that circle of "friends" despite the fact that she oh so wasn't interested in being famous ?. Idk, her actions just didn't align with her words and personality so she just rubbed me the wrong way. Also I just found it hard to believe the amount of hold the influencers in this drama had over the entire public. Like come on...

Message - For all the reasons above and more, I feel like this captures exactly what message the drama is trying to send. Regular people like A-Ri can all of a sudden find themselves in a similar situation and be swept away by the money, pretty clothes, popular "insider" cliques, sponsorships, fancy parties etcetera and lose themselves to chasing internet fame. I liked how it showed a normal person's fall into the internet fame ecosystem and how people can get so obsessed with seeking likes and the thin rope these influencers walk with their "fans"/followers.

So I'm a bit torn about this because I didn't enjoy the drama cos it was fruatrating to watch, but I also saw the message it was trying to send which made it easier to understand why the FL was written the way she was. And at the end, she does come back to her senses and serves her revenge well which was good to see.

The acting from FL was a bit stiff at times, and I wasn't a big fan of the couple pairing between A-Ri and JunKyung (but they looked pretty together, so my eyes were happy ?). But if you're looking to escape and watch something that's far from the reality you might be living then you can give this a try.

Can't get over of rookie actress, Jisoo's acting!

I never thought I would ever be able to see Jisoo crying but this drama gives a load of crying Jisoo scenes. At the beginning of this drama, we really could Jisoo in Yeong-Ro's character because she was fresh, smiling, happy, chaotic character. but the ending broke me so hard. I couldn't bare to see Yeong-Ro left alone. I wasn't over this drama for 2 years. when watching the edits of the drama, I always cried so much. The ending made cry even when I was sleeping. The story was so good but I hope ending should have been less brutal. I always wonder what if Lim Soo ho asked out Yeong-Ro for a date that day without seeing his colleague in that car. Anyway, it's worth watching it. I guarantee you Jisoo's acting will blow your mind. She's multi talented. The chemistry between Jung Hae-In and Jisoo was 10/10. Go watch it, don't forget to keep some tissues with you!!!

Does this worth watching it??

Yes, I should say this is worthy of your precious time. it's kinda a mysterious drama. the both actors have done a great great job. their chemistry between each other is the everything. I really wish there were more scenes between them. my points for this drama is 95/100. The ending is kinda confusing and I felt like it was rushed. I watched this drama when it was on going and I couldn't wait for the next episode. but I never re watched it. But I think i should rewatch it, and experience what you guys feel when watching it straight, without waiting for the next episode. However, I recommend this drama.

I love this mini drama. I can tell this drama is really really short. a very mini one because one episode runs only for 6 mins maximum. I wish it was a bit longer but still I love it. I already have watched it for 3 times despite my busy university schedule. and I'm planning to watch it again just because I can't get over it. The chemistry was everything between the Female Lead and the Male Lead. The plot was so good. Just for a moment, at the beginning of the last episode, I thought everything was a dream and that's going to be a sad ending but.... it's not a sad ending drama. That drama worth watching it and deserves more love. So go watch it and you will never regret it!!!

It was so good but the ending?

I would say I was hooked to this series even though I'm not a fantasy fan. Yai's character might be the rarest green flag in thai bl. His and Jom's chemistry is off the charts. No doubt about it. I liked the cinematography and the music too. It clicked with the story very well. Coming to the plot...time travel is a risky genre and it usually leads to many plot holes if not done properly. Everything was very well scripted and I enjoyed all the episodes until the last few minutes towards the end. I will deduct one star for the ending. There is no explanation given as to how Yai was there in the present with Jom and how he remembers everything. Obviously the Yai in past already stated in the letter that he must have died by the time Jom reads it so who is the one who came at the end. They could have ended the series with Jom unexpectedly meeting a random guy looking like Yai or just moving on from him but they made it confusing and left us with too many questions. Anyways it was a good watch....I liked the dance scene, the kiss in the rain and the oil applying scene omg that was HOT.
Don't skip this one. It's worth the time.

Trash

Childish drama with a fantasy romance nuance wrapped in very boring and ambiguous. From the start I knew that this story was only made for lonely women who want to feel the feel of romance surrounded by handsome men. I don't know why this drama gets a high rating even though the story it tells is not very interesting, that's why this website is very bad at giving ratings, such as good dramas with low ratings and trash dramas with high ratings, which is very normal on this website. It starts with a strange story and FL can be said to be stupid because he interferes in other people's affairs even though he is only a side character. I've done everything I can to keep watching this drama but I gave up because I didn't enjoy watching this drama. maybe for those of you who like fantasy dramas and you feel happy being surrounded by handsome men who like you, maybe this drama is suitable for you but for me this is just a bunch of rubbish.

Como se dice I didn't want them to get back together

For very early on I wanted to drop this series since bully x victim trope but how sailom handled the bullying was entertaining. But the last 3 episodes I really didn't want them to get back together. I get his father getting shot but what does that have to do with your boyfriend ಠ⁠_⁠ಠ. Like he's just ask shocked as everyone else. For them to just hash it out like he didn't treat him like the worse for something his brother didnt even do. "You still don't want to believe that your brother shot my dad?" Like what? Can't be me though but have your little relationship. Maybe because I just finished only friends I find it okay for not every couple to get together. The second couple of Guy and Nawa was cute or whatever. But another unhealthy start to a relationship. Hey highschool trauma bonding at its best.
