Very cute, normal story.
The only thing I didn't like was the OST, because it just sounds very cheap but eh I guess you could say that was funny, and it was not too present so it didn't bother me that much.No toxicity, not too much drama, very simple but enough for me. Overall, I really enjoyed this short story, I would recommend for a quick watch :)

Childhood friends, neighbors,
Lovers..?Yeah, they didn't have enough time to develop it fully either way.
There was nothing extraordinary, mostly because they didn't have enough time to cover the basics, but they got somewhere, and established something, so not all bad.
Like I said, childhood friends and neighbors, have had a crush on each other for the longest time but just won't open up to each other for.. reasons. It's not like they were being subtle either, so it makes me wonder why neither of them caught onto the fact that the other person had a crush on them, but that's a question for another time.
What followed was a lot of flirting, wound dressing and the pettiest of all misunderstandings, leading up to them almost becoming a couple. Still can't tell what happened despite the fact that it was very clear.
It was cute though, I enjoyed their banter and they were very sweet together despite insisting they hated each other. There were literally just three other characters and they weren't bad either. But I cannot not bring up the music, I believe they literally got one of the leads to walk up with a mic and just sing while the footage ran and used that as music. It was not good.
It was very short and unsubstantial, so it would make a good background watch.

decent fast watch
Overall: this 2 part series/short movie is about 35 minutes in total. Aired on Influduction's YouTube channel (made Ghost Host Ghost House) https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLPuEVm3l9__qwdzUN5mpWPBFGqDdjyEjW&si=KzkP6-hETufax-RvWhat I Liked
- easy to understand premise
- sweet moments
- at least the wannabe girlfriend switched targets quickly lol
Room For Improvement
- a stupid "plan" instead of just being honest with his friend
- "comedy" sound effects
- didn't have time for a wannabe girlfriend
- anti climactic ending

Teasing & love
I found this through the World of BL site where it is marked as Vietnamese. It is not! It is a short, 2 part thai bl drama advertising a coffee shop and their strange drink, orange juice ice coffee.Chalam and Thun are neighbours who have known each other forever but were never really friends. Chalam cannot stop teasing Thun and they both bicker a lot. But behind all the teasing, Chalam hides the fact that he likes Thun. He would like to confess to him, but all the teasing has made it impossible since Thun would not believe his sincerity. Eventually, with his sister's help, Chalam figures out that Thun actually likes him back and confesses.
This was short and somehow cute but the low budget was very much obvious. The scenes filmed outside seem warmer than the fixed set scenes inside (sitting at the desk or on a sofa!). The acting is a bit stilted and wooden: the line delivery (or the writing) is unnatural. There are a couple of quirky side characters: the restaurant waiter commentating the latest battle of wits and the teenage girl who changes her love target from the brother to his sister.
The plot is nothing original: enemies to lovers through teasing done right. The actors are handsome and Boy (Chalam) smiles a lot. It is a simple romcom, nothing more, nothing less. The music was awful: an out of tune a cappella song. And of course, there were so many ubiquitous and unnecessary sound effects. I mean, when are the producers going to start believing that the audience can understand when something is funny without pointing it out with these horrible noises?
Just a short, quick watch. Not too bad for an ad!
