Okay okay i actually have high expectations for this series. I thought its gonna be some magical shit that soon will become unravel like who is Dream and who is Elle. The thing with this series is the editting is perfect and the cg is damn good! But the minus point is when the plot starts to becomes boring and slow. I admit that there is cliffhanger at the end of the series but instead of wanting to watch em, i react like "oh ok".The series doesn't have those kind of scene that makes the audience turns wild. It didn't tease the audience. Like you want kiss scene? Bam! There you go. And i was like uhh.. Ok? And i wish the plot moves a little bit faster and they could reveal a little bit about Elle and Dream so that the audience will be wanting more.
Trigger warning though, there's rape scene in this series so be careful if you are easily getting triggered. Ah shit, Fluke's acting is perfect! The way he caress Best's hair is oh gollyyyyyyyy. And yes, there is no slight closure at the end of the series which makes me lose interest to watch it. But its a good series that doesn't makes me feel bored. At least its not the shittiest bl series i have ever watch.
The only thing that helps me to watch it till the end is Fluke's acting. He is so good that i am surprised it's his first drama.

OH SHIT OH SHIT OH SHIT!!!! The angst and pain is so fucking real that i never encounter with one-sided love, i could feel the pain. Off's acting is 10/10 and Gun! Hats off to him! He is like the perfect bottom in this bl series that portrays the perfect closet guy who love his own best friend. The part where Gun was heartbroken and always cry in the shower hits me so hard that i don't know if i ever miss one episode without crying. This is like 10/10 (as you can see in my review gurl ) .
But i kinda have love-hate relationship with Third. Because it seems like he is so stubborn. Like gurl if Khai have show his true interest to me ( the part where he waits for the Gangsta group for road trip ), i already on my knees for him. I swear, if you are going to watch this episode, you need to prepare a lot of tissue because- oh god! WHYYYY!! but i am glad that the ending ends well and im so happy to see Third's smile when he is with Khai because all this time, it's hard for me to see his smile.
What i suggest for you if you are new to BL, you have to watch these; Love By Chance, Sotus, Theory Of Love & 2 Moons

Trailer-Bait, No Stockholm Syndrome, and WTF Did They Do to This Plot?
Let me just start by saying this: I'M SORRY. If y'all don’t vibe with my review, then oopsies but also… not really? You can fight me. Anyway, let’s unpack my trauma real quick because I was SO HYPED for this series. Like, Ohm in a BL post- Bad Buddy? Leng being adorable IRL and OhmLeng TikToks giving BFF-to-lovers energy? Sis, I was READY.And then the trailer? Sheesh! It was giving gritty, it was giving Stockholm Syndrome realness, it was giving “morally grey character development arc.” I was salivating. But GUUUURL. WHY do I keep getting scammed by trailer bait? First Jack and Joker, now this? Is this my villain origin story? Probably. Let’s dive into this tea, because Miss Gurl is HOT.

Ohm as Mint: My Sweet Green Flag with Red Flag Tendencies
Listen, Ohm slayed. Mint is a stuntman who’s broke, clumsy, and soft, working overtime to save his sick baby bro. We stan a hardworking king. He’s a family man, super protective, and just the right amount of clueless to be charming. A certified Green Flag™… except for that slight overprotective Red Flag™ energy.
Now, here’s the gag: I wanted Mint to be a layered, complicated man. Like, give me tortured anti-hero! But noooo. The writers kept it basic. Yet Ohm, bless his talented soul, gave this flat character depth. His action scenes? ICONIC. This man was out here throwing hands like rent was due (which, it was). Ohm could’ve made reading a cereal box dramatic. We don’t deserve him.
---
Leng as Q: A Puppy with Lazy Eyes and No Sass
Leng… sweetie… listen. I love you but you gotta step it up. Your resting serious face is giving “annoyed at the world” when it should be serving depth. Like, we need to work on those eyes, babe, because right now, your vibe is “placeholder meme material.”
And Q? GIRL. His whole personality is just trauma and vibes. They took 10 episodes to unpack it, and by the time they did, I was like, “We been knew.” Q could’ve been bratty, spoiled, or even savage, but no. He’s just… meh. He’s lucky he’s cute because otherwise, I’d be snoozing. If Leng doesn’t hit acting workshops HARD before Only Friends 2, I’m gonna cry in 4K.
---
Mheen: Mint’s Rebellious Lil’ Bro Who Deserves a Spinoff
Mheen (played by another Ohm, because why not) is Mint’s sick younger brother. And guess what? He’s the surprise MVP. His acting? Solid. Not groundbreaking, but solid. I love how he’s always giving Mint love-life advice like some teenage Dr. Phil. Rebellious, a little naughty, but wholesome? We love that for him.
---
The Plot: Y’all Catfished Me
Oh. My. GOD. Y’all, the trailer had me HYPED. It was giving Stockholm Syndrome, action, drama, tension—all the juicy stuff. But what did we get? TRAILER-BAIT BULLSHIT.
So here’s the gist: Mint takes a kidnapping job because he’s broke and needs money for Mheen’s medical bills. Enter Q, the rich kid with daddy issues and a hit on his life. Mint is the world’s worst kidnapper, so Q just… stays at his house? Like, “Cool, this is fine. Better than being murdered.” And then they fall in love. The end.
The plot could’ve been so much more. Like, imagine if Mint faked Q’s death and Q had to hide while hitmen that were promised with bounty came for him. Or if Mint betrayed Q but regretted it. Or if they leaned into the Stockholm Syndrome vibe and gave us a morally complex love story. But no. They chose mediocrity. By episode 8, I was like, “Okay, can we wrap this up?” And the last 4 episodes? Pure fluff. Unnecessary.
---
Action Scenes: Ohm’s Fists Could End Me
The action scenes are the saving grace. Ohm knows how to land a punch, and every fight was poetry in motion. Leng? Ehhh, he tried. The choreography was solid, but the fights couldn’t distract me from the dumpster fire of a plot.
---
Chemistry: BFF Energy Instead of Butterflies
Okay, hear me out. They have chemistry, but it’s not hitting. Like, I wanted butterflies, heart palpitations, the whole deal, but instead? It’s giving “besties who sometimes kiss.” The steamy scenes were fine, but the emotional connection felt shallow. I get it—they’re new, but PLEASE do some workshops together before Only Friends 2 because I’m rooting for y’all.
---
OST: Forgettable, Just Like the Plot
The OST? Trash. I can’t even hum it for you because it’s THAT forgettable. Also, why is the opening a soft, romantic song when the show’s supposed to be action-packed? Make it make sense.
---
Final Thoughts: Trailer Bait Strikes Again
Great actors, mediocre plot, and wasted potential. The action scenes are fun, and Ohm’s acting is worth watching, but the chemistry and story just didn’t deliver. Would I rewatch it? No. Would I recommend it? Only if you’ve got nothing better to do. Anyway, here’s hoping Only Friends 2 gives these two the redemption arc they deserve.

Standard GMMTV shit
Alright, besties, buckle up because this review is about to be messy, just like Moo’s life. I wasn’t sure about this one at first—comedy fluff AGAIN? Like, GMMTV, babe, do y’all know any genre outside of “cute but dumb boys falling in love”? We’ve seen it, we’ve clapped, we’ve moved on. But then I watched it and... MISS GURL. It hit me. THIS. IS. IT. Okay, not life-changing, but entertaining enough to make me yell at my screen at 3 a.m. Let’s unpack this chaos, one messy plot point at a time.---
Moo: Sunshine Chaos in Human Form
So, Keen as Moo? BABES. This man is the poster child for "never giving up," and I respect it. Moo wants to be an idol so bad that he’s willing to humiliate himself repeatedly, and we stan perseverance in this house. Failed auditions? Check. Struggles at school? Double-check. Yet, Moo’s like, “Try me, bitch!” and keeps going.
BUT LORD. This boy is as dumb as a bag of rocks. His mom ships him off to a school in the middle of nowhere because he keeps flunking exams, and honestly? FAIR. Moo doesn’t know the meaning of “study,” but he does know how to beg. Watching him plead with Kang to sign his audition form had me SCREAMING, “HAVE SOME DIGNITY, SIR!”
Still, you can’t hate Moo. He’s like a puppy that keeps knocking things over but looks at you with those big, hopeful eyes. You just sigh and say, “Fine, I guess I still love you.”
---
Kang: The Walking Braincell
Sea as Kang? ICONIC. Kang is the polar opposite of Moo. He’s all calm, collected, and constantly looking at Moo like, “You’re so dumb, but I kinda love you for it.” Their dynamic is EVERYTHING. Kang’s the type who thinks before he acts, which is why he constantly says no to Moo’s chaotic plans.
Remember when Moo asked him to sign the audition form? Kang was like, “Nah, fam. If your mom finds out, she’s coming for my head.” Logical king. But beneath all that stoicism, Kang is lowkey (okay, HIGHKEY) obsessed with Moo. The way this man looks at Moo with those soft, longing eyes? BABY, YOU’RE FOOLING NO ONE. JUST CONFESS.
---
Potae and Payos: Hot Mess Express
Aun as Potae? CHAOS. This man changes girlfriends like he’s sampling snacks at Costco. And every time he got mad, I wanted to throw something at him. He’s like, “I’m passionate!” Sir, no, you’re just impulsive. This man is a walking red flag with anger issues and a commitment problem. But that’s where Payos comes in. Ashi as Payos? Chef’s kiss.
Payos is the glue holding this friend group together. He’s rational, level-headed, and probably exhausted from cleaning up Potae’s messes. Honestly, I spent half the series yelling, “Payos, baby, you deserve better!” Watching Potae be oblivious to Payos’s feelings was PAINFUL, but also, I love me some slow-burn, so I ate it up.
---
Shone: Drama King Extraordinaire
BOOK. SHOWING UP AS MOO’S BROTHER. Let me tell you, I was NOT READY for the drama this man brought to the table. Shone is the older, more responsible sibling who bails Moo out of trouble and slips him money on the low. BUT THEN—PLOT TWIST—Shone starts catching feelings for Kang.
Excuse me, what? SIBLINGS CRUSHING ON THE SAME GUY? The drama! The betrayal! When I tell you my jaw was on the FLOOR. Like, sir, you’re supposed to be helping your little brother, not stealing his man. Shone really said, “Sorry, Moo, but I’m about to steal your man.” . Watching Shone pine for Kang while Kang only had eyes for Moo? DELICIOUSLY MESSY.
---
The Plot: Cute, but Where’s the Spice?
Alright, let’s be real here. The plot starts strong. Moo’s journey to become an idol while navigating life at a new school? We love to see it. The first half had me hooked—Moo and Kang’s slow-burn romance, the sibling rivalry, the side couple drama—it was all giving chef’s kiss.
BUT THEN. Once Moo debuts as an idol, the plot takes a nosedive. Kang starts pulling that “I’m avoiding you so you can focus on your career” nonsense, and I was like, “What is this? A 2005 soap opera?” Missed opportunity.
You know what they should’ve done? Bring the drama. Imagine the company pairing Moo with a female idol for PR, and Kang gets jealous. Or Moo dropping a love song that’s basically “You’re my man, Kang,” and the internet goes wild. THAT would’ve been iconic. GMMTV, hire me. I’m ready to serve.
---
The OST: A Certified Bop
Let’s talk music. The song Moo writes for Kang? OBSESSED. It’s cute, catchy, and I found myself humming it all day. The rest of the soundtrack? Meh. Forgettable. But that one song? A whole vibe.
---
The Sex Scenes: LOL, What Sex Scenes?
Don’t even think about it, y’all. Keen is 19, and the series made it VERY clear they’re not going there. So if you were hoping for something spicy, lower your expectations. This is pure fluff and vibes.
---
Final Thoughts: Cute, Chaotic, and Worth a Watch
Only Boo isn’t groundbreaking, but it’s fun, lighthearted, and full of lovable characters. The drama is a little childish, and the plot fizzles out toward the end, but overall? It’s a good time.
Rating: 9/10. Great vibes, but it could’ve been iconic with a little more drama. Would I rewatch? Nah. But would I recommend it? ABSOLUTELY.

WHY DO THEY HATE LONGLEEFRANK????
Alright, bestie, let’s talk about Long Lee x Frank and their latest flop.sigh First of all, let me just say this: I wanted this to work. I really did. But why, oh why, do they keep giving these two dumpster fire plots? First Love Syndrome (Frank’s cursed wig still haunts me), and now this? Directors, come to the front of the class—I need answers, and I need them now. Anyway, let’s break this down.
——————
CHARACTERS: CUTE, BUT MAKE IT CRINGE
Let’s start with Frank as Phum (or should I say, “male bimbo extraordinaire”). He’s giving us that rebellious “IDGAF, let me love who I wanna love” energy, and honestly? We stan. Frank plays it well—like, he doesn’t look too awkward pretending to be adorable, but some moments had me full-on secondhand embarrassed. “Sir, how old are you? This ‘uwu’ act expired two birthdays ago.”
And then there’s Patrick, played by Long Lee, aka the hottest bartender in BL history. The man is out here flipping bottles and serving smoldering stares like it’s happy hour. Plus, he’s immune to Phum’s vampire powers because, duh, he’s got a dark past to reveal. MUAHAHA. (Side note: when Long Lee’s on screen, I forget about plot holes, dialogue, everything. He’s THAT hot.)
The side characters? Meh, except Mix, who’s out here carrying the entire series on his back. He’s hilarious, and honestly, without him, this show would be dryer than my inbox after a bad meme.
——————
THE PLOT: WHAT EVEN IS THIS?
Okay, buckle up, because this story is… A LOT. So, vampires have rules (obviously), and the current generation can’t fall in love because… reasons? Phum, being the rebel icon he is, says, “Screw this!” and escapes to the human world using a ritual book so he can love freely. Girl. What?
The plot could’ve slayed. Imagine Patrick as a vampire hunter trying to sniff out Phum, who’s all, “Oops, I dropped my bloodlust,” while secretly hiding his identity. But noooo, instead, we get Phum vs. the Vampire Government fighting for the right to love. This is giving Twilight fanfic written at 3 a.m. in 2011, and I’m not mad—just disappointed.
——————
ACTION SCENES: WHERE’S THE PUNCH?
Look, we all know Long Lee’s a Muay Thai king, so when the final showdown popped off, I was ready for art. Instead, we got basic punches and kicks. The whole thing felt like a group project where only one person did the work. I mean, even Love Syndrome (yes, THAT mess) had a snooker fight scene that slayed harder than this. Honestly, they could’ve just let Long Lee choreograph the entire thing himself.
——————
CHEMISTRY: I’VE SEEN MORE SPARKS IN A MICROWAVE
Let’s be real: Frank and Long Lee are gorgeous humans, but their chemistry? Missing. From episode one, it felt like two coworkers forced to attend a trust fall exercise. (Spoiler: they dropped each other.) Thank the BL gods they’re getting new pairings—Long Lee with Boom, and Frank likely back with Drake. Maybe those ships will finally serve the Starbucks-level chemistry we deserve.
——————
OST AND FINAL VIBES
The OST? A slow love song for a vampire story? No. Miss ma’am, we needed something edgy and iconic, not a sad ballad that belongs on a “Songs To Cry To” playlist.
——————
FINAL RATING: A COMEDIC FLOP WITH HOT PEOPLE
In conclusion, Long Lee x Frank deserved better, but this was still… watchable? Barely? The comedy saved it, and Long Lee’s hotness carried me through, but the plot and chemistry were DOA. BL directors, please go read Wattpad for better ideas.
Final score: 7/10. Would I rewatch? Only if someone paid me in Starbucks and therapy.

Knock Knock Boys – SASS, CHAOS, AND WHO GAVE THESE CHARACTERS A LICENSE TO LOVE?
Knock knock. Who’s there? A hot mess express pulling into Dysfunction Junction. Knock Knock Boys is the comeback series for Seng, post-scandal (yes, THAT one), and let me tell you, it’s got more drama than my group chat during my friend's boyfriend cheating on her. Buckle up.---
CHARACTERS: A HOTBED OF TROUBLE
First up, LatteAlmond. Yes, that’s their ship name, and no, I didn’t order it at Starbucks. Latte (Jaonine), aka "playboy of the year," spends his time collecting lovers like Pokémon cards. Dude is a manwhore, let’s not sugarcoat it. Living with three roommates—Peak (Best), Thanwa (Seng), and Almond (Nokia)—he makes a bet to help Almond woo his crush, Jumper (Pak). Easy, right? WRONG. Because feelings show up like uninvited party guests, and things spiral faster than my willpower during a sale.
Almond, bless his heart, is your standard shy, emotionally constipated softie. His one job is to pine over Jumper, but nope, he catches feelings for Latte instead. Bro, this ain’t To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before. You had one mission.
---
PEAK AND THANWA: CHAOS DUO IN THE HOUSE
Now onto Peak and Thanwa. OMG, this side pairing is more tangled than my headphones. They’re supposed to team up to overthrow Latte (rent money wars, y’all), but instead, they find themselves in their own rom-com from hell.
Peak? Surprise, he’s ENGAGED. To a woman. Yeah, my reaction: "I thought you were gay, sir?!" But plot twist—his fiancée has her own girlfriend, so it’s all good. Thanwa, meanwhile, has a psycho ex straight out of a true-crime documentary. This man was out here filming their sexy time (eww) and trying to sell the tapes (double eww). Sir, this isn’t Euphoria. Take your desperation somewhere else.
---
THE PLOT: FRIENDSHIP, FEELS, AND WTF MOMENTS
The premise is fun: a bet to help Almond snag his crush leads to unexpected romance. Simple enough. But oh no, this series said, "Hold my drama juice," and threw in love triangles, secret pasts, and enough miscommunication to fuel a thousand memes.
Latte and Almond’s dynamic? Deliciously messy. Latte, the king of denial, doesn’t know whether to kiss Almond or run for the hills. Almond, meanwhile, is all, "Why are you hot? Stop being hot.". And I’m sitting here screaming at my screen, "Just make out already, you fools!"
But the real MVPs? Peak and Thanwa. Their subplot is the kind of chaotic side story you didn’t know you needed. From fiancées with secret girlfriends to psycho exes lurking like an unpaid intern, it’s a ride. And the love triangle? Messy AF.
---
JAONINE AND SENG: GORGEOUS, BUT GIVE THEM MORE
Jaonine is a look. Like, if Bright Vachirawit had a twin who wasn’t trying so hard to prove he’s hot, it’d be him. His acting is decent, though occasionally awkward, but hey, he’s pretty, so I’ll allow it. Seng, on the other hand, is out here killing it, people are still salty over the “Fren and I kissed” situation, but can we move on? It’s 2024. Let the man live and act. Also, where’s the same energy for Fren? Toxic fans, please take a seat. Anyway, Seng proves he’s got range, and I’m here for it.
---
SPICY SCENES: WHERE’S THE SIZZLE?
The trailer had me hyped for steamier scenes than a sauna. What did we get? A few kisses, two sex scenes, and a whole lot of unresolved tension. I mean, COME ON. If I wanted PG-13, I’d rewatch Love, Simon. At least LatteAlmond’s tension was entertaining, even if it didn’t deliver the goods.
---
FINAL THOUGHTS: DRAMA GALORE
Me, watching the last episode: "This is why I have trust issues." But also, "I love this trainwreck so much."
The OST was cute, giving beachy, summery vibes that made me crave seafood and iced coffee. The acting? Solid, especially Seng. The plot? Messy, dramatic, and just self-aware enough to be fun. This series won’t win awards, but it’s perfect for binge-watching while yelling at fictional characters to GET IT TOGETHER.
Final rating: 9.7/10 for the drama, the chaos, and Seng’s redemption arc. Would I watch it again? Hell yes. Would I also scream at Latte to stop being a manwhore? Also yes. Knock Knock Boys is a vibe.

LOVESEA? MORE LIKE LOVESNOOZE, TBH.
Listen, FortPeat is my ultimate ride-or-die duo. Like, Love in the Air? ICONIC. The drama, the pain, the absolute fireworks. So naturally, when I heard they’d be serving us main couple realness in LoveSea, I was like, “YES, FINALLY, RAIN ON ME.” Instead, I got a drizzle. A freaking drizzle, girl.---
CHARACTERS THAT DESERVED BETTER:
Tongrak (Peat) is supposed to be that cold, sassy, sleeps-around-for-inspiration baddie, and while he’s giving sass, he’s also giving... confusion? Like, what’s the deal with his backstory? One second, he’s in the city. Next, he’s on an island trying to vibe and write his novel. Where’s the “how” and “why”? And don’t even get me started on his first meeting with Mahasamut. The build-up? Non-existent. BLINK, and they’re already bickering.
Mahasamut (Fort) is another story. He’s supposed to be laid-back and charming (with a bite, we love a man who bites), but he feels like Prapai’s low-energy cousin. Fort’s acting skills are wasted on this basic enemies-to-lovers trope. GIVE HIM SOMETHING JUICY. GIVE HIM COMPLEXITY. WE KNOW HE CAN HANDLE IT.
---
THE SIDE PAIRING THAT SHOULD’VE BEEN A BACKGROUND EXTRA:
Vivi and Khaimuk. Sigh. Okay, I’m all for girlxgirl pairings when they’re done right ( Last Twilight, I SEE YOU). But ViviKhaimuk? It’s a big fat no for me. Vivi is borderline obsessive, and Khaimuk is just… there. The whole dynamic screams cringe, with cutesy PDA overload and zero storyline. Like, sis, we deserve better lesbian rep than this.
---
A PLOT THAT GOT LOST AT SEA:
The concept had potential: hot enemies-to-lovers on a tropical island? YES, PLEASE. But the execution? A mess. Mahasamut’s whole mission to make Tongrak fall in love with him was cute in theory, but the lack of depth killed it. The trauma? Unfolded in the most lazy, blink-and-you’ll-miss-it way possible. I wanted tension. I wanted heartbreak. Instead, I got half-baked drama and a sprinkle of spice to keep me awake.
And let’s talk about the spicy scenes. They’re good, don’t get me wrong, but compared to Love in the Air? Meh. I wanted hurricanes, not soft drizzle kisses and awkward pauses. GIVE ME PASSION.
---
REDEEMING QUALITIES (AKA WHAT SAVED THIS TRAINWRECK):
The OST is fire. Period. It’s giving tropical beach vibes and made me want to book a one-way ticket to Krabi. And the acting? Fort and Peat carried this series on their backs. Even with a subpar script, they gave it their all. We don’t deserve them, honestly.
---
FINAL THOUGHTS:
This series is like that one friend who shows up late to the party and doesn’t bring any snacks. You love them, but you’re also annoyed. FortPeat deserved a better plot and better characters because their talent is TOO GOOD for this basic fluff.
8.5/10. The .5 is for Fort’s jawline and Peat’s sass. Will I rewatch? Probably not. Will I still ride or die for FortPeat? Always. But MeMindY, girl, we need to talk. Do better. 💀

What is Sun what is set? why is it vibes?
GURLLLLL, let’s talk about MosBank and this hot mess of a series because I have thoughts, feelings, and a lot of side-eye to give. First of all, Big Dragon stans, don’t come for me, but I never got the hype. Everyone was like, “Oh my god, it’s soooo good!” and I was sitting there like, “Sis, are we watching the same thing??” It wasn’t giving what y’all said it gave. Then they pulled the whole “we’re dating IRL, look at us being cute” stunt, and while I’m happy for them, the PDA had me cringing in my corner like an awkward aunt at a wedding. But hey, love is love. I’ll let them have it.Now, this series. Oh my GOD, where do I start?
Let’s start with the leads, shall we? Salin. Baby, I get it, you’re trying to serve sass, but sometimes it’s giving Dollar Tree sass, not the full-blown Real Housewives realness I wanted. I feel like his entire personality is teasing Sun for reactions. And sure, it’s cute the first three times, but after that? Sir, do something else. And don’t even get me started on those slow-mo eye-locking scenes with Sun. CRINGE. Like, bro, we get it, you’re into each other. You don’t need to stare into each other’s souls every five minutes. Sun, on the other hand, is Mr. Perfect. The ultimate dreamboat. The “I know what I want, and it’s you” guy. BORING. Give me some spice, some flaws, something other than “I’m hot, rich, and everyone loves me.”
The side pairings? Okay, buckle up. Juldis and Chan? Cute, sure. But gurl, WHERE IS THE BACKSTORY?? They gave us crumbs, and I was starving. Like, how did they even end up together? I blinked, and suddenly they were a couple. And Juldis not being the top? That plot twist sent me into orbit. YOU HAD ONE JOB. Moving on to Sam and Yotha. Enemies to lovers? Been there, done that. But let’s talk about Tenon because… yikes. The man looks good from one angle, then suddenly he doesn’t, and I don’t know what to do with my feelings. His acting? Screams “I’m trying really hard” but in a way that makes you cringe. Meanwhile, Pete is out here carrying this pairing on his back like a champ.
Now, the plot. LORD HAVE MERCY. The potential was THERE, but they fumbled so hard I almost dropped the series. Instead of giving us a well-crafted reincarnation story, they gave us unnecessary heart throbbing romance scenes every five seconds. Like, HELLO?? Where’s the story? Why are you wasting my time? And don’t even get me started on the necklace. A NECKLACE?? That’s what y’all went with? Imagine if it was an anklet. Imagine Salin kneeling to put it on Sun’s ankle. Now THAT’S hot. Missed opportunity for a sexy moment right there.
Overall? Meh. It wasn’t as painful as Big Dragon, but it wasn’t good either. I yawned, I cringed, I survived. Would I rewatch it? Absolutely not. But hey, if you’re into pretty people staring at each other and random romance scenes that don’t make sense, go off. This one’s for you.

OKAY WHAT IS THIS????
Alright, let me just say this upfront: I WAS SKEPTICAL AS HELL ABOUT THIS SERIES. Why? Because MeenPing’s track record is... let’s just call it “iffy.” Their previous series had me snoozing on the couch, drooling into my popcorn. BUT GUESS WHAT? This one? GAME. CHANGER.I’m actually obsessed with this series. No one’s more surprised than me. Who knew basketball drama could be this entertaining? The plot revolves around Ryu, your typical bad boy who’s softer than a marshmallow when it comes to Zen. Ryu’s out here playing basketball for the cash (relatable), and Zen’s all, “No, sweetie, we play for the love of the game.” Zen is such a positive lil’ bean, but let’s be real, even his sunshine vibes can get overshadowed by his *own* overthinking. Classic.
Now let’s talk about Ryu for a second. This man is fighting his feelings like his life depends on it. Meanwhile, Zen is all, “I like you, duh.” But Ryu? OH NO. He’s in Egypt, swimming the Nile with his besties *Denial* and *Confusion*. One second, he’s all, “Must protect Zen at all costs,” and the next, he’s like, “Nah, I’m totally straight, we’re just bros.” PLEASE. Ryu, your internalized mess is showing.
And can we talk about Frank popping up out of nowhere as the second lead? Like, “Hey besties, I’m here too!” LOL. But for real, both Frank and Meen have leveled up their acting game. No more awkward stares or wooden line delivery—growth, we love to see it. Speaking of characters, Lin? Girl. STOP. You’re so selfish sometimes! Always whining about your dad, but do you even TRY to understand his perspective? No. You just yell. It’s giving tantrum.
Also, can we address Lin and her “crush” on Ryu? Sis, where is the buildup? WHERE? Not a single scene made me go, “Oh, I see why she likes him.” It’s like she woke up one day and said, “I choose you, Pikachu.” I mean, drama’s cute and all, but at least give us some breadcrumbs. And Ryu? He owes Lin a proper rejection scene—*then* give me the juicy fallout where Lin starts hating Zen. That’s the kind of drama I live for.
Now, let’s give a round of applause to the mafia plotline. It’s not perfect, but hey, it kept me entertained. The basketball scenes? SO WELL DONE. I was fully invested, like, “Okay, ESPN, I see you.” But the action sequences? Meh. Ryu gets injured after like *two seconds* of fighting. Sir, what even happened? Did you trip over a pebble? Give me some punches, some broken furniture, some DRAMA.
Lastly, let’s circle back to MeenPing. Ping is out here being the most precious bean alive. I just want to squish him. Meen, though? I don’t know, he still has that awkward energy, and I feel like he’s not vibing with Ping as much as Ping is with him. Ping is giving heart-eyes, and Meen is giving... “I’m straight but thanks.” It’s very God Itthipat-coded. JUST SAYIN’.
Overall, I really liked the series. It’s fun, the basketball scenes slap, and the heart-throbbing moments? SO GOOD. But the mafia fight scenes need work, and Ryu’s emotional crisis was exhausting. Still, it’s a rewatch for me because PING. IS. ADORABLE. And I need more of Zen’s sunshine vibes in my life. *Bye, love y’all.* 🏀💖

This Series: No Chemistry, Weak Plot, and WTF Was Mew Doing Here?”
Babes, I had HIGH expectations going into this one. The trailer? Looked like it was gonna serve everything—drama, romance, maybe a little spice. But what did we get? A lukewarm, no-sizzle snoozefest with vibes as dry as unbuttered toast. I wouldn’t say it’s awful—it’s fun if you lower your expectations into the basement—but the chemistry? Absolutely non-existent.---
Let’s Talk About the Romance, or Lack Thereof
First of all, what is it with K-BL dramas having this “let’s play it safe” energy? Like, we get it, Korea’s new to the BL game, but babes, give us SOMETHING. A spark, a smoldering glance, a little tension—anything. Instead, we’re stuck with this dry-ass romance where the leads are just... there. Together. Talking. Holding hands like they’re doing a group project at school. Where’s the passion? Where’s the heart-fluttering moments? WHERE IS THE YEAR-ROUND CRAVING, GAY ANGST ENERGY?!
It’s giving “we’re doing this for the paycheck, not the vibes,” and honestly, I don’t blame them. Maybe it’s the writing. Maybe it’s the K-drama BL template. But either way? This romance could’ve been spicier.

Mew: The Only Reason I Didn’t Click Out
Okay, confession time—I wasn’t even a Mew fan before this. All the rumors? The hate? I was on the *“meh, who cares”* train. But Miss Gurl, let me tell you, Mew turned it OUT in this series. His acting? Immaculate. He carried this show on his back like a goddamn mule. The nuance, the depth, the ability to make you feel something even when the plot gives you nothing? Incredible.
Honestly, I don’t get why people hate him. Like, what did he do? Breathe? Exist? This man deserves all the flowers for this performance. I’ll admit it: I judged him too quickly before.
---
The Plot: Weak, But Not Awful
The plot itself? Kinda thin. It’s like they took a basic K-drama script, threw in some soft gay vibes, and called it a day. And you know what? It’s not the worst thing ever. The pacing was decent, and there were moments of genuine fun, but it lacked substance. Like, gimme some depth, some twists, some heart-stopping moments where I yell at my screen. Instead, it’s just vibes. Fine, but forgettable.

Final Thoughts: Fun-ish, but Don’t Expect Fireworks
Am I glad I watched this? Sure. Am I gonna rewatch it? Hell no. It’s not a bad series—it’s enjoyable if you go in with zero expectations. But the lack of chemistry? The weak-ass romance? That’s a crime.
Final rating? 6.5/10. Watch it for Mew’s acting and some mild entertainment, but if you’re looking for steamy chemistry and a groundbreaking plot? Babe, this ain’t it. Watch it and judge for yourself, though. Who knows, maybe it’ll hit different for you.

I SHOULD HAVE TRUST TIKTOK
I been having a lot of review videos on TT saying that this series really traumatised a lot of people from the sex scene actually. Let me tell you, first episode and my Jaw dropped like “um excuse me? Is this allowed?”. Usually I never read the synopsis of a series or stalk the actor nor the director to make sure I have no bias on a series. MISS GURL LEMME TELL YOU WHEN I FOUND OUT THAT CHEEWIN IS THE DIRECTOR RIGHT AFTER I FINISH THIS SERIES, I GOT SO DISAPPOINTED 😭.Cheewin directed A LOT OF MY FAVOURITE SERIES ( bed friend, SCOY, middlemans love and etc ) and watching this series like its coming from a low budget company really caught me like “AINT NO WAY THIS IS CHEEWIN’S WORK”. I am speechless and I never would have thought that Cheewin would produce this series.
Please BE WARNED THO, 1 - 4 episode you will get shook at the sex scenes but after that, you will get used to it LOL THATS LITERALLY ME. This series is 90% sex scenes and 10% of non existence conflict. Yes, the main conflict is to find out who killed Naht but the plot keeps on getting prolonged that I ended up skipping a lot starting episode 8. To be honest i think they can shorten the series to be 8 - 10 Episodes but because of unnecessary sex scenes, it becomes 14 episodes.
MY MIDDLEMANS LOVE IS 8 EPISODES AND THIS SERIES GOT 14 EPISODES? Cheewin, we gotta have a talk.
Some of the actor’s acting is a little bit stiff but not that bad though and also, CAN WE STOP THE ENGLISH SCRIPT UNLESS IF WE HAVE A NATIVE SPEAKER IN THE SERIES????? I couldn’t help but to keep on thinking they are trying to look like KinnPorsche series ( shoutout to my Zaddy Vegas ). I am sorry but the english is almost borderline of Cringe 🤮.
Anyway, not a good series but not a bad one either. I wouldn’t rewatch this series tbh.

Mediocre actor with bad production
I wouldn’t say I am disappointed with this series but its not exactly a good or bad series either. I mean I was looking forward to watch this series because of Dew, but I think the problem here is the editing, the plot and the directing. Sometimes the transition between Scene A to Scene B is not that smooth which makes me ponder who let these people edit this series 😭. The sex scenes are delicious since they been too generous sometimes the sex scenes are too long for me. Like you include their kiss scenes for 3 minutes straight for what?The plot is meh. I mean the story has potential but the way they develop it is not that well. I wish they could include the part where Nail fighting more with Him on whether Him truly feels him as replacement of Blue. Also, there is no elaboration in this series and I am so pissed the fact that one episode only have like 30 minutes airtime only and the remaining 15 minutes are for BTS. Like un hello?
The series could either have 12 episodes with much plot development or 8 episodes with the same plot. Cause to be honest, i dont think 12 episodes are necessary and I am quite shooketh that this series is under GMM-25. Usually GMMTV took it serious about the plot but what is this miss gurl?
Though I like how at the actors portray their characters, the real winning point here is really those 4 straight girls hhahah. I like that the girls instead of trans to portray comedic role since its rare to see trans have proper role, i think its time to variety those role.
Nutshell, mediocre actor, poor plot development and poor editing

OVERHYPED?
I subscribe IQIYI for this bro cause of the uncut version is steamy ( that's what people been saying ) and I admit, that is indeed true. Steamy and keep making me ask myself if this is allowed? LOL. Okay first, you know the series is meh when the series ended, you just be like "Eh. Okay.". The plot itself have potential to grow but I wish they explain in much detailed version of Alpha x Enigma and the fact that some of the Alpha and Enigma have powers. I feel so lost when suddenly Babe have sense/power, I was like "Eh? Is this fantasy genre?". The explanation is lacking however the conflict is really well execute. No delayed part except sometimes there is unnecessary love scene which got me questioning "You did this for what?".Okay. The acting. I'm sorry but Pooh need to improve his gaze and the way he is talking to his co-star. It felt weak. It felt like he is still stiff and not ready. But I dont know why when it comes to sex scene, his gaze changed and almost makes my heart skips a beat. LMAO. Charlie's character seems to lack of passion, lack of love and he doesn't even care about maintaining relationship with Way nor other X Hunter's members. I feel like he could care less about them as long as he can be with Babe. Pavel, on the other hand, MISS GURL- I LOVE HIM! I mean how can I not remember he were in 2MOONS 2. Like um WHERE??? Anyway, Pavel's acting is alright but Babe's character is 80% RED FLAG. Like THERE IS NO WAY that he doesn't know Way likes him. Like please-. COME ON. And I think that Babe knows about Way's feelings but he chose to ignore it because back then he was young and all he wants to do is to fight Tony. But still, RED FLAG!
NUT. NUT. NUT. He is my new husband now. HAHAHAHAH I mean- I did watch his first series as main role - TSIMR and I love his acting but it's been a while so I WAS LIKE "YO! WHY IS NUT HERE???". HAHAHAHA but to be honest, I like Way's character and I wish the screenwriter could have include like emotional lines as Way's final lines like, "I am sorry, babe. That day where we back to become friends, will never happen." or "You love him because he would die for you but I love you because I died for you.". YOU KNORRRR???? Such a waste. Way is the only BL character that makes me cry. IM NOT EVEN KIDDING.
Anyway, plot could be better, good cast but lack of good lines.

EarthMix is the real star here
BRUH- I HAVE TO STOP MYSELF A FEW TIMES BECAUSE OF THE FEELING TOO MUCH. I SWEAR EARTHMIX IS THE CUTEST- I- UM HELLO???!!!!!! I couldn’t help but to remember why I USED TO BE IN LOVE WITH THEM SO MUCH??!!!!! Like oh god. I like their kiss scenes though HAHAHAHAH. But anyway, can I just say how I love Phupha and Tian express their love? It reminds me of old kind of love. Like the way they express each other’s love really got me thinking they could be an old couple that got reincarnated from previous life. My poor heart. Oh my.OhmNanon on the other hand is okay. The usual them being very playful and very goofy. It’s just that I wish there are more of their plan in attempting to make Phupha and Thian made up though. But overall, it was alright.

MULTIVERSE AT ITS FINEST!
MY OH MY. Multiverse series are really the best isn’t it? WHEN I SAW FOURTH CHANGE ROLE WITH GEMINI, i literally scream. LIKE OH MY GODDDDD!!!!! Very creative plot and I like how they change the character to suit the plot since it is a multiverse plot. Just a little bit to complain, I feel lile Gemini’s acting in these 2 episodes a little bit plain and there is lack of seasoning. Maybe its just me but I still love them tbh! ❤️Considerați utilă această recenzie?
