A LOVE-STORY, ROM-COM DONE RIGHT!

Yes, the story does show a rivalry between parents passed down to their children. However, this just seems so basic, right? But oh, you are in for a ride.

In this series, there's no unnecessary drama. No stupid fights. No mis-understandings. Hella great communication between the main leads. No sacrificing their relationship for the sake of others. No breakups for the sake of others.
Their relationship shown is just based on Pure Love. Pat and Pran's story is really portrayed in the most realistic way possible. And not to feed the fetishes of the "audiences". Their intimate moments and kisses seemed so natural and for their own moment.

One of the many things that I liked in this series is there is literally no homophobia in the whole show. Also, no "I don't like men, but I like you" cliché. No "wife-husband" thing. No non-consensual kisses or anything. No jealous ex-gf trope or no making the girls in the series evil. Nothing of this sort.

Once the leads get together, they made sure that they stay together, fight together, overcome every hurdle TOGETHER. A healthy relationship is finally shown.

On to the main leads. Ohm and Nanon's chemistry is so damn good. So natural. Like literally no awkward moments. There was not one single time that I felt cringe or anything. And oh my god. Their acting skills! Hella fricking good. It's the only way to describe it. Even in the moments where there were no dialogues, I FELT THEIR EMOTIONS. And to think that this is Nanon's 1st ever BL. They both really gave us outstanding performances.

Also, the director. P'Aof. Hat's off. This man just keeps getting better and better. In 2021 alone he gave 2 back to back amazing series. First being ATOTS and now BBS. At this point GMMTV should just let P'Aof direct their BL shows.

Not to exaggerate but, Bad Buddy Series should not just be the standard of BL's but also the standard of a Healthy Relationship. This series really hits home because, it is just a simple love story between 2 people, but yet, so damn special.

Cast 100% ; Storyline 100% ; Direction 100% ; Production 100% ; Acting 100% ; OST 100% ; Rewatch 100% (I already rewatched it once. More to come, lol)

Watch it. You won't regret it.

Why is everyone disappointed?!

Prior to watching the series, I ofc came here for the reviews. Tbh, all I saw was disappointment. But, I still went ahead and watched it because I saw some clips and liked them.
I really don't understanding why is everyone hating on this. I mean, for me, I am quite happy with the series. Firstly, we got to know about Fiat's past and as to why he is the way he is. We also got to know about Fiat and Leo's past. Secondly, I loved Leo's family. I am all here for supportive parent's.
Yes, there were some toxic stuff too, but, after having seen countless of BL's, this series is much better tbh. Could've been worse, but in my opinion, it is watchable. If you can survive cringe BL's, this is nothing in front of them. I said what I said.

Now, the acting. I really liked the acting for most of the cast. The main leads, the second couple, the friends, all the acting was really good. The main couple, for me, really depicted the emotions very well and didn't seemed too forced tbh.

Also, I loved Leon's acting. I am so in love with his smile and the way his eyes sparkle! (You can solely just watch this for Leon, he is too adorable).

And yes, the second couple's ending. It did ended realistically. Yes, they were cute together. But, let's be honest, it ended that way so they could have a series of their own. It will happen. It always does. I don't get why people crying over their ending. Their story is really cute. They together are cute. But, the ending shown is good too. I mean, you don't always prioritize your s/o over your dreams. So, I really don't have any issues with the way the second couple ended.

**This all is subjective. As I mentioned in my very 1st sentence, because of the reviews, I was not going to watch this. But, I really do think that some people are exaggerating. Because, with the amount of Thai BL's that I have seen, this is watchable. **

Y'ALL BEEN SLEEPING ON THIS

I've watched Max and Tul in Together with Me and already am a fan of this couple. Their chemistry is no joke. So, saying that I was pretty excited for this drama, would be understatement.

Manner of Death is such a unique take on a BL drama. This is not your typical BL, but, it's so much more and sooo good.
Right from the start, it keeps you engaged, which is very rare. The Storyline, the production, the acting, just everything, is excellent, in my opinion.

I might sound over the top with excitement in this review, but, it's only because this is such a unique story. I keep mentioning that this is not your regular BL story and yes, it's because, I am in my mid 20's (out of the uni, working) and while I do enjoy the college romance dramas, with stereotypical storylines; I was excited when I heard of this BL drama.

Something that is non-college related and in between mature (grown-up) people. This caught my eye. This drama really gave all the mature vibes with a realistic and super addicting storyline.

Manner of Death is a masterpiece in my opinion and tbh, it has been on my top 5 ever since I've watched it.

Go, watch it!

As soon as I started this series, I was regretting that why did I not watch this last year. As I was watching, I was cheesing out so hard, throughout all the episodes, literally. Ofc, I cried too, but, man, so glad I watched this today. Better late than never I guess, lol.

Anywho, jokes apart, firstly, I did not feel like I was watching a BL tbh. No offense to other BL's, I love them too, but, this was like a breath of fresh air and definitely going on my rewatch list. This drama really depicted all the feelings, raw emotions, you know. Like, even though they were apart and literally courted each other via video calls, I was fangirling like crazy. Their chemistry, their acting, just, soo good. Top notch if you can say. I was giddy and so hyped up like, all the time.
Also, I personally, hate the "Baby" thing, but OH MY GOD! caireel have made me rethinking my preferences, lol. It did not made me cringe at all, in fact, it got me more giddy. Felt like I was third wheeling the whole time, ksksksks.

This drama depicted a lot of things, but personally, some amazing things I liked were the way they focused on mental health, acknowledgment and acceptance of one's own mistakes and forgiveness. Also, loved the supporting female character. Big shoutout to Pearl. She carried the show and did most of the excited screaming and fan-girling for us, lol.

This series has everything (maybe not for some if y'all are into skinship). But for me, I do enjoy a great storyline with amazing depiction of emotions. I am telling you all, I literally forgot sometimes, many actually, that I am watching a series and not just some real life love story of 2 people.

IT YOU HAVEN'T WATCH THIS YET, WATCH IT. YOU WON'T REGRET IT, I PROMISE!

May contain Spoilers**

Okay, first things first, the possibility of you or any person liking this movie is very subjective. All the reviews that I have read are either full of praises or it's just a no-no for some people.
As a regular BL watcher, I regret that I did not find this movie sooner. I cannot believe that I was missing out on this. Yes! I've liked this movie way too much.

Side note - I seriously do not understand how can Korean actors/actresses portray such an amazing chemistry between their characters. If you are a regular Kdrama watcher, you'll understand what I am trying to say. This movie has such a good chemistry between the 2 leads. I was a little unsure at first because of the age difference between them, but OMG, they surely do not disappoint you. Also, I did not expect the kisses at all! This is a Korean movie, on top of that a BL. I was really not prepared for the kisses and trust me, those were not awkward at all. Once again, hella great chemistry.

Okay, on to the movie. As the name suggests - Method, this movie is really how you interpret it. Like, is it really just for the "Method" acting or were they really into each other. Could be both too or not.

The cast played out this movie really well. The palpable tension between the leads, their unspoken emotions. Everything was executed very nicely. The ending might not be the one you expect. It does end sort of realistically. But, the movie handles real issues, real struggles, the consequences of situations like these in real life situations very well.

The story - 100% ; The Cast/Acting - 100% (perfect casting, acc. to me) ; Will definitely re-watch this again and again.

P.S. For some people who will be watching it for the 1st time, it might become overbearing but trust me, you won't regret watching this movie. I think it does deliver the message they were trying to deliver.

One of the best BL Movies I've watched.
