I am a big fan of Thai dramas, and this one is so good. Most of them I have seen have a very strong sexual tension aspect to them, but 2gether stays away from that and on the lighter side of romance and real issues that come with new relationships. My favorite element in this drama is how real the feeling of lack of confidence comes across. How many times do we miss out on love in real life simply because we overthink and fear rejection? How many times do we let our friends opinions influence how we think about the person we like? Ever worried about how your family will react to a new love interest? This show has the perfect mix of humor, strife, and budding romance for me. It’s also not very often that both of the male leads are this attractive. With the exception of TharnType and Win and Team in Until We Meet Again, I truly haven’t been this impressed with the casting and cute chemistry of the leads. I am currently watching Still 2gether and am excited to see how this series wraps up.

I’ll just go ahead and write my review for HIStory seasons 1-4 as one review (including both of the season 3 stories).
Season 1 – this is actually just 3 completely unrelated stories. “My Hero” is a supernatural film that is really just kind of weird. Hero’s girlfriend is mistakenly taken by the angel of death and in an effort to keep her soul on earth with Hero, he shoves her into the first available body who happens to also be in love with Hero. “Stay Away from Me” is better and deals with a taboo of new step-brothers who develop feelings for each other and a friend who desperately wants them to be together. “Obsession” is even better and actually rather well written even though there is a supernatural element to it as the lead dies and wakes up alive 9 years earlier. “Obsession” is the only episode in Season 1 that actually opens up the physical side of BL dramas. It’s clear that the writers got better with each episode. Thankfully the remaining seasons were not like this.
Season 2 – This season is 2 separate stories broken into 4 episodes each. Episodes 1-4 are called “Right or Wrong” and involve a professor/student relationship. Episodes 5-8 “Crossing the Line” are about a volleyball team manager and his junior he recruits to play for the team due to his natural ability. The relationship that develops between them is sincere and set at a good pace for only being 4 episodes. There is also another step-brother relationship in this one (this seems to be a favorite theme among the HIStory writers as we will see it yet again in Season 4).
Season 3 – “Trapped” is a hate turned love story between a goofy police officer and a super hot mob boss who is trying to get his outfit to go legit. There’s a secondary love story between a gun for hire and another police officer that’s also really cute. This one has a good looking cast, mostly decent acting, and a good storyline. However, the very final scene leaves you a bit unsatisfied and wanting to know what will happen in the future. Perhaps they will do a follow up season with this one at some point.
Season 3 – “Make Our Days Count” is both my favorite season and my least favorite season. I don’t want to give away any spoilers, but get your tissues ready because you WILL cry. While Song Wei En and Huang Juan Zhi are the main couple in this series, my favorite couple is played by Zhang Han Yuan and Liu Wei Chen, and I’m assuming they were a lot of fans favorites as they appear as a couple in season 4 and are set to have their own upcoming season of “Make Our Days Count2”. I would also like to point out that our main couple makes an appearance in a cross-over project with Japan “Life-Love on the Line”.
Season 4 – “Close to You” is the latest season currently available. It deals with 3 best friends who work together as wedding planners. Li Cheng and Mu Ren are both “straight” men who fall in love. Again there is a step-brother relationship that actually gets the parents involved this time. Let me tell you, mom is a bit of an odd one. And of course as stated previously, our favorite couple from season 3 makes a really cute appearance in a few of the episodes.

I know I'm late to the game, but I just finished watching it. Bai Lu, Xu Kai, and Toby Lee are always fantastic. This has my absolute favorite opening credit track of any CDrama I've seen so far. The story is engaging, the music is entertaining, and cast is fantastic. I love the fighting and that they acknowledge the fact that a female soldier would be physically weaker than a male soldier instead of going all GI Jane with the role. However, what I really want to talk about is Liu SiBo in this drama. I could not take my eyes off of him every time he was on the screen. Does he box in real life? If so I need to know how to watch that. ?

I almost feel like this is a case of "the ends justify the means" because this drama ends well. However, the first half of the series is really rough to sit through. I'm not sure what went wrong, but the acting was terrible in the beginning which is really strange because I've seen much of this cast in other things and they're fantastic. Thankfully the acting and cast chemistry gets on track the second half of the series and it becomes extremely entertaining. If you can hang on, it's good. If you dropped it, it's understandable. My advice: skip a few episodes and stick with it.

I love that this show didn't turn out to be what I was expecting. This is a drama about an underappreciated, underrated pop star and the challenges he faces in order for people to take him seriously in music, life, and even in love. Z.Tao is fantastic and we get to hear his vocal ability both in pop and hip-hop. I get the feeling much of this drama is based on his real life struggle with his previous record contract. The love story is the perfect amount of goofy and serious, and I appreciate the fact that its the pop star fighting to prove himself and his intentions to the girl. This one is definitely re-watchable.

What happens when you put six gorgeous actors/actresses in lead roles? You get Sweet Teeth! Honestly I first clicked on this drama because I mistook our main male lead for Evan Lin in the picture. Regardless, I was pleasantly surprised at the outcome. The storyline is pretty good, but my favorite thing in this drama (besides the characters) was the music. It was fun and energetic, and the nightclub scene made me want to get up and dance along. Bonus educational tidbit: I now know the proper way to brush my teeth as well as what foods not to eat with metal braces. If you are reading subtitles, most episodes are spot on but there is one where the timing is really off so be aware of that. For the time being you will have to watch all the episodes on iQiyi because they aren't all on YouTube.

Because Of You definitely exceeded my expectation. There's quite a bit of back story leading up to present day and the rather comical beginnings of the love between Li Yun Kai played by Allen Deng and Zhang Guo Guo played by Sun Yi. There's also a fantastic "evil sister" Zhang Yu Xin played by Wu You who you love to hate from the very start. And it MUST be said that Li Zhinan aka Li Kelvin does an outstanding job in the role of hero/vigilante Lu Sichen. There's amnesia, childhood sweethearts/enemies, deception, and if course romance. This one easily kept my attention.

I will start with what I like about this series. The leads aren't the typical flawless Korean actors that we see in most series, and given their character types, I think that is an excellent decision. They are attractive, but not perfect and I find that their flaws add to the story. The story is very engaging. I'm sure at some point each of us has felt desperate or angry enough to make a wish for it all to just end. This series allows us the opportunity to see what would happen if there was an actual consequence to that wish and possible follow through. Now, the biggest thing I can't stand so far is that you can tell the writer/production team doesn't care for Americans. As an American, I am having to overlook that as much as I can and attempt not to cringe every time they use "is he American" as a derogatory statement/question. I would never use any nationality as a way to speak negatively about someone, but they do... a lot. I love the visuals and the original soundtrack is one of the best I've heard yet. The music really draws you into the moment. Overall I really loved this drama.

It took 3 years, but we finally got episode 1 of the series we've been waiting for. WinTeam was such a beautiful mystery in Until We Meet Again, that MAME wrote Hemp Rope just for us fans. I know I'm not the only one who has been watching every single thing BounPrem has been in while waiting. Their chemistry is off the charts so much that their guest appearance in the Cutie Pie series held the highest live stream views on YouTube for the series. Episode 1 of Between Us met and exceeded every expectation I had for this series. I am on the edge of my seat waiting for the story to continue.
