Bad Buddy has raised my standards for bls
So I went into this drama having 0 expectations, I hadn't seen the trailer, had no ideas what it was about or that it even existed until 5eps had already aired. I saw reaction videos about it popping up and decided to give it a try. It wasn't exactly "love at first episode" but I kept going and here we are now- this drama has completely taken over my life and I don't think I'll ever get over it.
What I love about the series:
- The acting!!! Every scene feels so natural + the way Ohm and Nanon can show emotions through their eyes is amazing. Of course it's not just the leads, everyone working in this series is very good at what they do.
- The chemistry between Pat & Pran. Ohm & Nanon are very close friends irl who are completely comfortable around each other and it shows with their characters.
- The music. Always switching just as the emotions of the scene changes & helps to enhance whatever the characters are feeling.
- The product placements have created some of the cutest & most memorable scenes.
- There's so much fluff!
- Pat & Pran does this thing called "talking to each other" so we avoid a lot of annoying issues most dramas have with the miscommunication trope (I personally hate it with passion)
- Girl characters aren't used just to create conflict between the main couple & they actually feel like characters not cardboard cutouts... (*looking at most bl series*)
- One of the best bl kiss scenes.
-It's nice to see environmental issues casually brought up throughout the series (like the eco bus stop & green camp they went to)
- There's no homophobia which I personally like. Everyone has issues with Pat & Pran being together but not because they're both men.
- The story itself isn't really anything new and unseen but the way it's told is what makes it special and enjoyable.
- They keep subverting our expectations, sometimes you're sure everything is going one way but then something else happens.
- It's acknowledging and breaking annoying tropes commonly seen in BLs
- Highly rewatchable episodes
Best Thai BL of 2021 for sure.
