Unimpressive

If you have watched quite a handful of good BL’s then this might not be your cup of tea.

I would say this is more of competitors to lovers kinda series as the leads never hated each other in the first place. We have like 3 bl couples in this series . Each had interesting love lines but somewhere I felt like they missed including few scenes so couldn’t really understand the relationship progress of the other 2 couples.

No proper story development but must agree this got a lot of cringy and cute scenes. Not sure if it is just me but I somehow felt that cameraman focused more on Ai’s facial expressions than Songkram’s. I’ll remember Earth and Bank ,looking forward for their future work though

There is no harm in skipping this . Can give this a watch if you are bored , got nothing to do and have enough hours to while away

Best portrayal of Opposites attract

If you question the concept of opposites attract in a relationship, watch this lakorn . You will probably find the best available answer to it.

The main lead charcaters are just so impressive and inspiring . Despite Penneung being pressuried to be the best always , he grew up to be an amazing individual and Mata being broughtup among people who are mostly prejudiced by society has a positive perspective towards life. They just complete each other perfectly .
Him bringing discipline into her life and she filling his days with positivity and love.

The second half of this lakorn is what impressed me the most, initial episodes had few complicated medical terms ,me being a math student felt they were difficult to comprehend and had to skip , at times i felt those scenes took up lot of screen time but ya the sweet and cute moments of the leads made up for it.

This is among those rare dramas which maintained my attention even after the leads got together. I found Mata a little childish and silly at first but later she grew extremely positive and mature after watching how she handled few uncomfortable situations.Story had a lot of elements in it like toxic relations, unaccepting parents, painful past, cheating partner, therapy, busy life, positivity. Usually all added in one would seem a little messed up , but this lakorn had them executed perfectly. JUST LOVED IT!!

Ending commeng : Would have enjoyed it even more had there been a different and clearcut ending for Trai

Yet another BL with less plot more NC scenes

The plot ? Did we have any , this series was all about "they met, they slept".
Do makers think love making scenes are all that bl fans need, What fans truly need is a plot that makes sense, great chemistry, cute love story , proper communication, ofcourse good amount of NC scenes are like icing on the cake. Wait, am i asking for more?

What i hated and just could'nt get over was Punn's screen presence, he is sooo immature, creepy and non sensical. And Ashi , ok he is a superstar who lacked love but what he lacked the most was human communication.
I am not doubting the actors acting skills ,but at places the leads acting felt out of place especially Ja , felt like he is not for younger roles.

We could see great chemistry between Ja & first in NC scenes and the rest was filled with just some series in a series scenes , manager's quarrelling and unnecessary not so worthy scenes

And ya almost missed this, second couple? Nahhh , they were just 2 people who liked sleeping with each other, Show me one scene where they tried to get to know more about each other. None !!!

If you ship JaFirst, watch it . You'll get to see great NC scenes between them , but dont expect any logical scenes or plot . Only then, you'll like this for sure.

A babe with another babe

From the title I thought this might be an office romance kinda drama
But, ya there is office, there is romance but put together I felt there was no office romance as per my expectations of it.

An intern and a boss seemed a little interesting but I did not find the scary, overpowering, strong minded BOSS character here as portrayed by Cher’s colleagues in the earlier episodes. So, as my headline I just saw romance of two babes here
I found Cher very very annoying because of him being talkative and non sensible in the beginning but he slowing grew on me after they showing his vulnerable and mature side. Coming to Gun, I still wonder what made him fall for Cher the romance line nor the chemistry was well built and I couldn’t really make myself fall for CherGun as a couple
A lot of scenes were shot in the office, but when in the world do people work there. I always see them gossiping, giggling, blaming, taking people away, drinking coffee. Like if they are in office at least be realistic give them some work be a little professional

But anyway, overall this is a mediocre series where I had no aftereffects. No reminiscing the leads romance nor fantasizing about any character being real. No surprise if I forget watching something like this after few months
Do I recommend it to anyone? Yes , maybe you’ll find it fun if binge watched with a whole lot of skipping

Thank you.
Yours sincerely ,
Someone whose tired after having a LONGGG day at work

I have my complaints

I was here only to watch MeenPing together again after AiLongNhai.

I obviously didnot expect much of a story here but didnot expect absolute nonsense either. I really like how Thiu ang Guy's story progressed from online friends to lovers but then what happened to it? unncessary plot line just to extend the story ruined it for me.
I wish they showed more of Guy's character understanding Thiu's world and embracing him despite the indifference's . But i saw nothing of this happening. i Wish they focused more on Meen and Ping by just showing a little of others.

What came out of this that both the leads acting got better than their previous work. If you are here for the MainLeads, you can watch this by skipping almost 60% of the series.

Would have been a lot better had they kept the leads innoncence intact

The reason why i started watching it was because of the pilot episode, that was really interested.
Thr beginning of the series was not what i expected of it but still enjoyed the slow burn story and was eagerly waiting for other episodes to air.

This could have been a lot better had they written the characters more in depth. I felt like lot of deep conversations were missing, between brothers ,
between lovers and betwen friends. There were scenes where Vee and Baitong , Sky and Ton were having conversation shared about each others life and each had their own problems but more than just listening or comforting each other they just whinned or bragged about their own relationships.
The real reason why Sky was not ready or Vee was upset is still unknown. They just touched everything on the surface and left lot of plot holes.

I was not really interested in the side couples stories right from the start but they wasted a lot of potential in Ton and Bai's story (lovers probelms due to busy schedules) again they missed deep conversations but just kept adjusting themselves to each other.
Coming to Vee and Sky, only reason why i continued watching it was due to their slow burn relation, completely my kindof pace but again the writers spoiled it for me by adding spicy and wild making out scenes . For me, would have been better had they kept it to the last episode or a little milder. Was defiently not expecting these NC scenes from VeeSky.

Acting wise , found Vee a little awkward during few scenes( NC scenes were an expection looked like he was trained actor their) and sky got better at acting with time episode. But, VeeSky together had amazing chemistry Ton and Janus were better actors of them all.

Overall i enjoyed it up untill the main couple got together and then the last episode had a better wrapping up of side couple's story.

My mind went hollow

How do i feel about this series in the end ? ---- > Down in the dumps.

I really liked the initial few episodes which kept me going but the the last 2 to 3 episodes did not really make much sense to me.
Like ok i understand that they are trying to wrap up, but where is the connection . I had quite a few questions unanswered even at the end.

The whole idea of the series , the story, the acting was just amazing but there was no feeling of fulfillment. To be honest i am confused , not sure if this is because of the poor plot development or my inability to understand it. It was when they started introducing divine , Cult , good and evil , presence of other world - went downhill.
But not to disdain the initial 7 episodes , must say i truly enjoyed them and just could'nt stop my curiosity . They cameup with a unique plot and the actors Nailed their characters , you can really feel the pain , disgust , anger and cruelty only because of their amazing acting skills.

If you are into suspense thrillers , you can give it a watch. This has a new concept and interesting plot but the only thing is dont search for links just accept everything they show only then will it turn out a "good watch" for you. If you are familiar with GMMTV series then you might enjoy the special appearances of their actors in each episode.

Maybe with all the star cast, my expectations were a little high

I watched The eclipse, 1000 stars, my school president so was super excited to see all 6 leads in one series and started watching only because of them but except Li Ming and hearts storyline nothing was noteworthy considering the plot.

This series shows a realistic side of life. Financial problems, relationship problems, unintended pregnancy ( which I felt was not emphasised) , disability, unrequited love . But, nothing left an impression on me. Jim having the responsibility to support his nephew financially and still held up in his past unable to open up his heart for anyone new. Wen who has a promising future but unable to cut ties with his ex and finds new love interest. Both when seperately viewed sounds interesting but together there was no magic, poor execution of their story development . Kaipa just felt pitiful and I dare not touch my handsome First ( just happy to see him in a series. Those spectacles enhanced his good looks and not to mention he does justice to every role he plays . I am just bewitched by him )
The only good thing about this (besides First :P ) are our cute and sweet Li Ming and heart , these 2 never bore me. Their story is quite unique and the implementation is impressive. Their acting felt so real especially Fourth , felt like he was living his role

A cute series with inconsistencies more than needed

I would say Hidden agenda is a good series for a BL. No much complications involved, cute and adorable scenes ,tried to touch many plot variations but what confused me the most is a lot of characters just come and go with no much screen time or premise. Just randomly introduce a person and then just end it abruptly in one episode.
For a BL, it is pretty good. You'll get to see a lot of things here , trying to impress your crush, secretly liking someone, being bold and coming out , toxic stalker , family relationships , romantic moments and ofcourse Debate . But, few topics abruptly introduced and quickly ended .
Because nothing was focused more in the plot we actually missed to figure out where exactly did the title come from "Hidden Agenda". What we expect from the title and the trailer was least shown. Would have been a great story had they highlighted this a little more .
Last 2 episodes were a complete disappointment, the dialogues and scenes which were supposed to be thought provoking dint leave much of an impact which gave this series a weak ending.

Watch it , if you enjoy college series and JoongDunk chemistry on screen.

Way too much drama in a single Lakorn- perfectly packed

I am not really into illegal relationship between the leads but no where in this lakorn did i feel wrong about it
Too much drama to handle in every episode. But, what can get really frustrating is the slaps (him to her, her to her, him to him, her to him.) as it is thai drama seems normal and common.
Every episode was very entertaining and had some or the other secret to be disclosed . Must say i really enjoyed watching it
and ya ofcourse it is a bit emotional(Those of you'll who watched it might understand what i meant by emotional )
In the history of Lakorns There exists a character like P'Thorn- so pure, gentle , innocent .Fell in love with him (To me he is Google, coz he has everything i am looking for)
The leads had amazing chemistry , just couldn't take my eyes off them and every character was entertaining

A MUST WATCH - if you are into romance and suspense . As it has just 15 ep will definitely enjoy it

Touched everthing on surface level without any depth in the story

Story is not much complicated. Just when you think it is going to get complicated from here, they add some illogical reasoning to it and end the problem. There were few plot changing scenes which gave a fresh vibe to every episode by the characters were not portrayed in details, their story and emotions were just touched on surface level.

Few emotional scenes which can make audience cry along with the lead were not that well acted out by Dew but the rest of the actors did amazing job. The FL made up for Dew's acting which bought life to few scenes. Good to watch Luke try out slightly different role.

Coming to Vee's character , they did not show us how talented he is for him to be the CEO, we often saw him slackoff and Chanon did all the hard work, they didnot emphasize on Vee's caliber and just wanted us to pity him for being brought up without a mother and having a disability. Was he made CEO of a huge company only because of that ? The love story was also half touched , Chanon's flip was also questionable, so connecting to the characters made it very difficult for me.
what can we look forward to in this series ?
Cute chemistry between leads.

They say Faceless love is a remake of K-drama RichMan, i remember watching it but dont recall much of it but i personally dont think this is 100% a remake of it, only 10-20% of richman was adapted in faceless love.

If you can bear nonsense but easy going plot or like watching Luke/ Dew / Kao , then you can give this series a watch.

Will enjoy the twists if not for the spoilers

Must mention, the spoilers on this show ruined the experience for me . But had i not known the spoilers open every where on social media i would have definetly been mind blown by the twists this series had. Not one not 2 but many.

Loved the new ans fresh pair babe amd charlie. Charlie is the cutest character i have ever seen any BL. Lie he topped the list of cuteness his silly smile really melted me and ofcourse Babe's hotness is worth mentioning.
What i found really unique about this series is how Babe was so weak for charlie and the storyline got really interesting at times by theintroduction of new plotline.

I felt like i entered expecting someone but later discovered this was something else. The NC scenes must mention were hot the couples stole the show and all the characters were bearable.
Few episodes kinda felt dragged out towards the end but overall it ia a good series and Pavels acting was outstanding throughout loved watching Charlie too. The other couple story line developed a little late but loved their plot too

This is defenitly a series i would re watch only for Babe and charlie's interactions the rest is completely skippable.

Despite knowing the plot, everything seemed new and refreshing

As a person who already watched the Korean version, I was a little skeptical about watching this . But, this did not disappoint.

My initial intent was to just watch episode 1 and drop , but it was way too intriguing and seemed fresh . (Can’t help but compare the two. ) The ghost scenes were much scarier, the chemistry between leads is adorable, the behind story of ghost was interesting and the focus was more on the plot than the leads which is very much appreciated
It is quite rare to have a hot and good looking antagonist , this series has it all . Must say that “ the defeat of the demon” seemed easy or rushed but that dint leave a negative impression on this series .

Lent and Junior’s character’s took this series to a whole new level adding the funny and inspiring quotient to it. These 2 with the leads felt like a wholesome ghost hunting team ( which was missing in the Korean version) .
The music at the end of every episode was soothing and kinda mysterious.

For those of you’ll who haven’t watched the Korean version and are in a dilemma about which version to choose. Just go for this (Thai version) . Better story , better chemistry, better CGI plus comedy .

When Sassy meets Sexy

Friends with benefits concept nicely executed

There are quite some BL series out there that has this FWB concept but never in any of them did I feel like they were actually FWB. In Bed friends they had an agreement , met for some fun and once purpose served back to normal like nothing ever happened between them, wohooo now that’s called being FWB
One question kept bothering me , like when and why did the leads catch feelings for each other? Theirs love story was a bit lacking . I appreciate that this series touched few taboo subjects ( All of it in Uea’s life- too much of Uea oriented series ) but also felt like everything nonsensically fell in place once He caught King’s attention. Storyline was a bit lacking for me at least.

If you are here for some hot and spicy romance with loads of sexy flirting - Bed friend it is !!!!!
Also the songs in this series are all catchy (My Playlist status - updated)

Meanwhile I would like to take some coaching from Uea about how he is managing to attract men around him unintentionally when poor me can’t do it with intentional efforts

Cute lighthearted series from OffGun

I was excited for Cooking Crush as it is OffGun's series right after an iconic NotMe. ( which got me into BL world )
Though i watched their individual series, i craved for them being together on screen once again and cooking crush it is !!

I loved how this series is lighthearted and easy going, it is all about developing a crush and romance + cooking. The plot is good so far and the characters are lovable. Off Gun are killing it with their subtle expressions. Firefly is one interesting character to watch - cat before mom but becomes a free to fly butterfly later and it being played by our mischevious Neo adds to the fun. Aungpao is kinda surprising me with his acting, though this is his debut series. Fire and dynamite together are cute and their story is gonna be unique as dynamite is very open and persistent about pursuing Fire.

This series has the funny part in it, not the laugh out loud type but definetly the Hehe - giggle type.

I love how both Prem and Ten are developing crush on each other simultaneously. This series is kinda collecting some iconic lines here with the second couple
1. Fire starts swearing on phone
2. "I told goddess lakshmi about you"

So far it is fun
