Why bother?

This was exactly like the Thai special, except - well no except, it was exactly the same.

A little cute, a lot cut out and extremely unnecessary.

Fuu is the one with a crush on Sara in this, and he's a creepy little stalker who is in love with an incredibly mean person. They go camping together because their respective friends believe they're perfect for each and that somehow works because they start dating? I think, it was pretty nonsensical.

Think I prefer the Thai version to this, atleast something happened there, this was an hour of nothing.

It's not really necessary to watch this special after the series (like I did), so save yourself some time and maybe make it a background watch.

My ultimate comfort BL.

I’m still pretty new to BL dramas, and honestly, Duang With You is the reason I fell so deeply into this genre. I actually started watching BL last year, went through about 10 series, then suddenly lost interest. But somehow, Duang With You pulled me right back in… and this time, it didn’t just bring me back... it made me stay.

There’s something about this series that just hits differently. It’s not just “good”… it’s the kind of show that lingers with you even after you finish an episode. The story feels heartfelt and genuine... not overly complicated, but still emotionally engaging in all the right ways. It balances softness, tension, and those cute moments that make your heart flutter.

Duang and Qin are definitely one of its strongest points. They feel real, flawed, and easy to connect with. Watching their growth felt natural, not rushed, and you can really see how their experiences shape them over time. Their chemistry? Insane. The kind that makes you pause, rewind, and just feel everything all over again.

Teetee and Por did such a great job bringing these characters to life. You can tell they truly understood their roles, and it shows in every small expression and interaction. Nothing felt forced... everything felt lived-in.

The OSTs deserve a special mention too! They’re the kind you keep replaying because they take you right back to specific scenes and emotions. Every track just fits perfectly.

What I love most is how this drama became a comfort show for me. It’s the one I think about randomly, the one I’d rewatch without hesitation. It even got me into shipping, which I never thought would happen… but here I am.

At this point, I can confidently say this is my number one Thai BL drama so far. It didn’t just entertain me... it changed how I experience this genre. And honestly, I don’t think I’ll ever forget the feeling it gave me.

Layers of Lies and Twist of Fate

Its been a long time since my last time watch Hou Minghao's drama. And I have an urge to watch Lu Yuxiao so I'm give it a try. This is my first time watch Yuxiao and I'm not disapointed

Story,
Such a nice story from the start till the end. We know that no xianxia go without misunderstanding, and this drama served perfectly how lies can create such a beautiful by layers of lies. The good thing is there are no disapointment that I got. All the conflict done as I expected in a satisfied way. But sometimes I feel this drama is a product of entertainment (and this is true tho) for some part.

Acting and Character,
I'm in love with both Ji Bozai and Ming Yi. Hou Minghao and Lu Yuxiao did such an amazing job bring them alive. It is hard to created character that feel alive and human. Thank you Hou Minghao and Lu Yuxiao for taking the job and act for our lovely Ming Yi and Ji Bozai.
This is my time to acknowledge your talent, Lu Yuxiao. Actually I watch this because I want to know you more before I watch your 'Nan Yi'. To be honest I don't really expect much from you but wow gurl you stole my heart! Now there is no way I doubt your talent.
Yu Chengen, this is my first time in your drama that I got slowly irritated when you appear. From adored to annoyed. This proved me you did perfect to potrayed the evolution of cute Situ Ling to ruthless Chao Yan.
I see familiar face like Quan Yilun (honestly I fall for you this time), Pan Junya, Zuo Ye, some kids actor and also some actor that I know from short and mini drama such as Zhang Hongming, Wu Tianhao, Yang Pengcheng, Deng Xiaoci, Zhu Lilan, Wu Yiqiao, etc. They all did a great job.

Music,
Hou Minghao's voice are hypnotizing. Such a warm-soft-comforting voice you are.
All of the song are so good and express each scenes properly. Thank you music director.

Rewatch and Overall Value,
First I want to praise the editing staff. Gosh the CGI is CGI-ing. Such a beautiful execution of every part of drama. From lighting or properties placement, graphic action, or event the comical visual are top-notch! I will remember this drama in my heart.

A charming series with a few problematic aspects

I started watching An Incurable Case of Love because of the actor playing the main role, after his performance in Glass Heart. I don’t think this will be the last series I watch with him, because he’s really great :D and I’ll definitely follow his future projects.

As for the series itself… it’s a sweet and charming story about the innocent, initially platonic love of a young girl for a doctor who fascinates her. It’s really love mixed with fascination, maybe even a kind of idol-like admiration. Overall, the idea of being fascinated by an older, experienced doctor is understandable, but I do have a few issues with this series, and I think the age difference is actually the smallest problem here.

Maybe I’ll start with the fact that the main character’s behavior doesn’t match that of a 22-year-old, but rather a teenager, which, from what I’ve seen, other commenters have also pointed out. Some of her behaviors are very childish. The second issue is that three men fall in love with her at the same time. I get the whole rivalry thing and all, but without offending our heroine—how is that even possible? Two middle-aged men plus a millionaire all fall in love with a young, not particularly sharp nurse. Of course, she is sweet and charming, kind and empathetic, but she is also childish, not very perceptive, makes mistakes she shouldn’t be making as a trained nurse, and overall the whole millionaire subplot seems quite unnecessary to me. Similarly, I find it unconvincing that she was the one sent for overseas training—like, why exactly? What was the selection process? Maybe I missed something?

And finally, my biggest issue with this series, the cherry on top:
Who would want—or react with a smile—if their loved one called them a donkey? Even at the altar? Was this mistranslated? It’s constantly either “donkey” or “blockhead,” used at work, then thrown around as a joke, and in the end said to his future wife? What kind of relationship is that, where one person treats the other in such a patronizing way? Of course, I understand it’s a series and not real life, but what I value in series is a reflection of reality. If a 22-year-old falls in love with a 33-year-old doctor and, completely blinded by love, marries him, then after 10 years, when she matures, she’ll be a completely different woman… It’s strange that a grown man is attracted to a girl with such childish and immature behavior.

So, I rate it—perhaps a bit generously—an 8.

Gore, Revenge and Highschool Drama x100

It is not really my usual type of show but I watched the earlier seasonsand liked them well enough, so was intrigued to see what this season would bring.

Before watching the show I would recommend looking up trigger warnings. There is alot of scenes and concepts in the show that, I think most people, would call disturbing. It´s alot of blood and gore but also situations that can potentially be triggering, especially if you identify as a woman. It is all fitting to the plot of the show and it does not feel like it´s there just for shock value, but it can be pretty disturbing.

The plot is basically contained to seperate stories, episode to episode, with an overarching theme. Each episode plot focused on some kind of revenge. It can be a little confusing at times but is overall pretty intresting and the revenge part is usually satisfying.

None of the characters are not really likeable, by nature of the show. I liked Nanno as well as her helper/admirer. Nanno always felt like she was in controll and knew exactly what the deal was, which can sometimes lead to a character to feel smug and not likeable, but Nanno just felt confident and secure.

Overall this show is not one of the best shows I´ve ever seen but if the triggers don´t bother you and you got some time to spare I don´t think watching this show would be wasted time.

Sweet and cute done absolutely right!

This show is a unicorn. It sparkles, it's unbelievably cute and absolutely one of a kind. This level of cuteness is usually 100% cringe to me. But the delivery from Teetee and Por is perfectly balanced. They complete each other. So although the story itself is not very substantial, there is a message here: You need a supportive and safe partner who, even if they don't understand you, will try anyway.
Another take away is that communication can be very attractive indeed. The way Qi and Duang try to understand and know eachother is amazing.

And who expected that these cuties would be able to switch to hot and bothered is a millisecond ?

It was agony waiting for a new episode every week. And every episode made me so happy.

Absolutely a masterpiece in the college genre, and I'm putting it high in my re-watch list.

I had to write this

I generally don’t review, I only comment on this site. I saw what the reviews were trending and I had to even out its score. I don’t know where they found these two guys, but I was so completely wrapped up in the believability and the chemistry between these two guys, that I have it in my minds schedule to watch it again. I gotta tell you that I was a little confused by the storytelling, and that it was a little bit convoluted, broken, and hard to follow. If however, you make a little effort and backtrack a little from time to time, you’ll be glad that you did. One of the leads had sort of a consistent facial expression, but when you look like him, I think you can get away with it. I mean, he got away with it! I would love to see these guys in another show. Hey, don’t get me wrong. I think this kind of plot device is a little played out. I think the whole forgetting 10 years of your life is a little unbelievable, maybe it happens but I think it mostly happens to 90-year-old people after a stroke and not hot 28-year-old Korean guys. People can beat me up over this all they want, but one of the things that I did like about this was the minimal use of makeup. I understand why K-pop bands wear makeup, but I don’t understand why they put these guys in make up when they’re supposed to be depleting real people, so hate on that all you want. These two guys were beautiful and I’m sure they were wearing stage makeup, but they weren’t overly done and I felt that it made the show a lot more comfortable to watch.

PAST , PRESENT N FUTURE ALL IN ONE

I’m watching because of Li Yun Rui. After seeing his rebirth drama, I searched for his past works on Viu, and since they’re available there, I decided to watch them. It’s interesting to see the difference between his ancient and modern dramas. His eyes, though small, are very expressive, and his smile is so cute, almost as if I can see dimples when he smiles.

Usually, I don’t write much, so I might only jot down a few sentences. Even though I disliked the bad characters in the drama, I have to admit they sometimes make the show more interesting.

The Classic Romcom That Everyone Should Rewatch

I just did a rewatch one of my first kdrama. It made me appreciate this drama more looking at their property, stage, styling, to music, the filming team really did an impressive job with the korean modern monarch concept that ascend beyond time.

I really love how the palace maid corporate the uniform blazer with the traditional belt and keeping the hair braid with ribbon / daenggi. fl's fashion is iconic and she often wears a modern fusion hanbok. how they shot within the palace and then the traditional bgm tune in made the scene more enchanting. of course the iconic stuffed bear too that is always the chapter highlight.

somehow older drama made more thoughtful craftmanship and i miss that so i often turn back to the classic. i rated it 7.5 before only focusing on the story, but my best decision was rewatching this and noticing even the tiniest details the team had worked on. solid 9!

CAN I HAVE 30 MORE EPISODES?

I've been patiently waiting a year for their series; I was there the first day and now I gotta accept we'll not gonna see more eps. So, to say I'm sad it's just the least.

This show has become really special to me, maybe the fact that I'm a pttp fan helped with that but I really think It was an amazing series and not just Teeteepor, the rest of the cast deserves all that hype just the same!

Of course I still have my doubts about some things...like Qin's parents' storyline; I probably didn't expect it to be resolved so easily. Or Wave's limited screen time. So, did he or didn't he have a partner? I got excited about the Cherry/Tong situation and that was it? I definitely expected to know a little more about his character but that didn't happened.

But I'm definitely going to miss these months. If you follow the cast and pttp(you should)on socmed you know how fun and special these months have been and now I'm simply too attached to let duangqin go(I think i'll keep rewatching dwy until my final days)

To my dear por and teetee: THANK YOU. I don't think anyone could play duang and qin like you did. I'm so proud of you and I'm already happily awaiting your next project. I LOVE PTTP AND DUANG WITH YOU SO MUCH!!!

Overall it was good but could have been better especially with TimPai

I am someone who really likes contract marriage, scam marriage, forced marriage etc so obviously this one made me have high expectations and to some point it also met my expectations. Especially the initial episodes where Tim and Yu are scamming Pai and North. I totally, absolutely loved the writing that we had for YuNorth. They had this wedding and then he realized he's a scammer and Yu makes up for it, immediately apologized and divorced to show north he loved him and accepted all the punishment. It was really touching. The problems with his mother was also handled perfectly with Yu chosing north over his mother.

But in case of TimPai the story kinda went downhill after the scam was revealed. Everything was perfect , tim realized he liked pai and decided to start fresh but unfortunately that doesn't happen. The thing that bothered me was Pai gave up his entire life to protect Tim, he gave up on his career and family but what did Tim do? Instead of apologizing and making up like Yu did he instead harrasses Pai and exploits his weakness. He does make up for things later but those 2 or 3 episodes where he is just forcing Pai to stay married was annoying. Worse Pai's family who Pai dedicated his life to didn't bother looking for him or checking on him until Tim asked them to🙄 like wtf. Even Tim's family was the same. They abandon their son who was just out of college with a huge debt and leave the country and then blame him for becoming a scammer. They didn't even show up at the wedding. So that's kinda where they're at.

I felt TimPai's story was not used to it's full potential. Although Mark did make me cry a lot during this series. I felt it could be a lot better cz i was here for the drama, begging and yearning after the scam reveal but that was kinda meh.

Overall it's a good watch but could be amazing. Gmmtv just sucks at screenplay
