"CHEAK OUT" ON RISK OF LOSING YOUR BRAINCELLS!!!
I Officially CROWN THIS BL AS 'the bane of my existence and the object of all my regrets *100000'GIVE ME A FREAKING BREAK!!!!!
THIS IS REALLY FRUSTRATING!!!! AND I WILL BE BLUNT HERE!!!!!
I HAVE SKIPPED THROUGH 80% OF IT, EVEN THE NC SCENES!!!!!
I LOST MY Remaining braincells Watching this AND had to put bleach [3 TRUCKS FULL OF BLEACH] in my eyes to forget this horror>>> rip braincells?. RIP EYES AS WELL☠️
Where do we register for our "I SURVIVED "CHECK OUT"!!" t-shirts???
WATCH IT ONLY IF YOU LIKE-
Cheating, like the actors, basic story, just want NC scenes, want something other than high school BL's, attractive guys, toxicity, bitchy female character, liars .
WHAT WAS THE PROBLEM ACCORDING TO ME-
bland music, Bad NC scenes, Cheating, Long and cringy dialogues, No character development, No chemistry, boring/slow paced[ I watched at 3x speed], jerk characters.
Seriously, I’m proud of those people who are wasting their time into this long and messy af series. The characters were too problematic in many ways.
A FRIENDLY ADVICE TRY TO IMPROVE THE PLOTHOLES OF THE SERIES NOT FOCUS ON SEELING US PORNO!!!
*Nine- Narcissist in a way. It wasn’t sexy at all to covet other people’s boyfriend. SUCH A CHARACTER ???
*Daonuea- Childish af! This character is probably one of the worst BL characters of all time. Naiveness to its highest. CHEATER!
*Tee- A BOY WHO LOVES A NAIVE BOY. Ughhhh also a character. I can't stop laughing at how Tee was all like trying to guilt trip Ice to give up his dream job, and Ice was ice-cold!! Literally, Ice was like I'm gonna have a hot makeout session with you, but that's about it. I'm totally leaving you tomorrow. And I couldn't stop laughing.
*Boat, Ice and Candy- MESSY AND IRRELEVANT CHARACTERS! Dust of the series. only good thing here>
*Preaw- A GIRL! SHE ALWAYS SPILLS HER TANTRUM ALL OVER THE PLACE. DESERVE TO BE CHEATED FOR HER ATTITUDE.
The series was too long and too messy. Not recommended for those people who had heart failure due to its boringness. Expectations was far from fair. ALSO IN EP8, THEY COULD’VE JUST MADE A FOR NINE AND PRAEW!
I really really DO NOT understand the need to complicate things. Put the damn uncut version on IQIYI and finish it!!!!!
FAN ONLY???? 25+??????? UNCUT??????? BRO are you giving us a BL or selling us PORN.
8 EPISODES IN AND I WILL SAY IT MAY GET BETTER BUT FOR NOW ITS NOT WORTH IT!!!! TRY TO WATCH IT AFTER ATLEAST 10 EP ARE AIRED!!!! FOR ME NOT WORTH WASTING TIME!!!
ONE LINE WARNING- "It is so bad I want to give you a zero, but that is not possible, so I give you a 1."
This is by far the worst drama I have ever watched, and if you look at my list you will see that I have watched a lot over the years.
Story: BAD
Acting: BAD
Directing: BAD
Editing: BAD
Product placement: BAD
All of it was bad. Am I sorry I watched? YES. YES. YES. I LOST MY BRAINCELLS HAD TO BLEACH MY EYES TO REMOVE THIS HORROR AND BASH MY HEAD TO A TREE SO THAT I COULD FORGET I EVEN SAW THIS EVER>>
Better to remember the name of the director and the screenwriter in order not to lose another 12 hours of your life.
note it>>> for future references> fool me once shame on you fool me twice shame on me>
"Unforgotten Night" and "Check out" were in a competition for the most ridiculous Thai BL of all time. PEOPLE ARE really not sure which one will win.
I think check out won with flying colors >>>>>
WORST BL EVER>>> EVER>>>

FOR REVENGE- WHATEVER IT TAKES
This is a revenge based drama, with a 80's vibe to it. The heroine is ready to do whatever it takes even if it means seducing and becoming the concubine of the ML's father.LOW- budget, SHORT, the CHEMISTRY is mind-blowing, the PLOT is phenomenal, OST is quite catchy, NO green tea bitch/2nd female lead drama, surprisingly it is HILARIOUS as well, ENDING is thrilling and dramatic
The chemistry between the main leads is EXPLOSIVE, it oozes SEXUAL TENSION!! I mean when they are in a scene together you sit on the edge of your seat thinking are they gonna kiss? like you cant take your eyes off them!!
Though they just had 1 kiss, i swear i wont be forgetting about it for a long long time.
THEY BOTH HAVE SECRETS AND THEY BOTH SEE BEHIND EACH OTHER'S MASK THE MOMENT THEY MEET!!
The FL is strong, she has her vulnerable moments but its only Infront of the ML, She shows the power and passion for both love and revenge.
Girl didn't come to play, she came to conquer, by whatever means it may take.
The ML, is just PERFECTION in a 3 piece suit. That man is sexy, intelligent and intriguing. Something about his aura pulls you towards him, maybe its the sense of mystery that he has around him or the way he doesn't get fooled!!
From day 1 he knew the FL was unto something, when no one could see past her façade he was the one pulling away her cover.
THE Cinematography, OST, Camera angle is BEAUTIFUL!! I am not kidding when i say it surpasses some of the most high budget chinese drama. The shots taken are beautiful!!
It is SHORT and that's a pity but those 13 minute episode do such wonders in conveying the story that sometimes 40 episode long C-drama cant do. Due to the less time the story FOCUS ONLY ON THE PLOT, no necessary filler, just the main plotline.
OVERALL. IT WAS FANTASTIC and i would really recommend it!! Believe me its worst every minute.

"Roses are Red, Violets are Blue, STAR-CROSSED LOVERS- ME & YOU"
2 INDIVIDUALS, 3 LIFE TIMES, 10000 YEAR.
ITS THE STORY OF angst, love, pain, miscommunication, jealousy, sadness, sacrifice, helplessness, and betrayal.
IT THE STORY OF EMOTIONS, DESTINY and FATE!!!
We have heard of enemies to lover but have you heard of star crossed lovers?
Imagine the universe bringing them together but also throwing them apart!!!
"SHE WAS BORN SO HE COULD DIE"
HONESTLY, NO one should be reading a review to watch it.
People should watch it and decide if its worth it, cuz i know once you start watching episode 1 you will be hooked like an addict!!!
WHERE DO I START?? This drama is one of the best drama made in the history of C-drama, dare i say the best xianxia!
The CGI is TOP CLASS, it screams money and beauty. The plot is just crazy, it full of angst, literally never a dull moment. The music is not repetitive and a collection of many OST, the main OST grows on you as the episodes pass. The cinematography and camera angle are AMAZING.
It is fast paced but its not rushing. I love the pacing, less filler scene and cringe moment. For the first time watching a C-drama i never once cringed in second hand embarrassment. IT'S STRAIGHT PLOT.
The starting and ending credits on start of each episode are so beautiful that I don't skip them, those are one of the best intro i have ever seen.
The costumes, jewellery , hairstyles are amazinggg!!! I MEAN they look like a million bucks!! YOU CAN SEE THE MONEY.
The fight scenes SLAP YOU on your face, they are insane. You can see the work and dedication in them. But the craziest thing is that LYX did them all on his own without a body double.
ACTING/ACTORS-
When a character either make you want to KILL them or SAVE them from the world it means the ACTORS are outdoing themself!! Here each and every actor may it be the main leads or a simple maid has done such exceptional job in portraying their characters, you actually connect to the emotions of the story.
PSYCHOTIC, RUTHLESS, COLD-BLOODED, EMOTIONLESS, UNHINGED, PITIFUL AND SINFULLY INSANE, that's what our MALE LEAD is!!
TANTAI JIN is not your common ML that changes in blink of a eye as soon as the female character comes into the play.
HE IS EVIL. He was born evil. YOU KNOW IT, HE KNOWS IT but you can't stop loving him and defending him.
We see him go from an bullied and tortured individual to the DEMON GOD/GOD OF WAR/KING OF JING/SECTOR BROTHER everyone FEAR and ADMIRE, we see his journey.
You see and understand why he is like that. THEY [the world] made him like that, they sowed the seeds if their doom in form of Tantai jin. They made the DEMON GOD by their action. THEY digged their own grave and they were the one lying into it!!
I had hoped they don't whitewash his evilness!!! I know it was nearly impossible to show him as evil as in the novel but i wanted them to keep his origin as much as they could with censorship and all, AND THEY DID!!! THEY MADE HIM UNAPOLOGETIC, not unhinged but still the perfect amount of evil.
There's just something believably sinister, unhinge, creepy and scary about him.
Tantai jin is soooo creepy!!! I can't explain in but the way that man looks, moves his body, flickering his hands and speaks is soo strangely different, still you cant stop watching him. His face changes from innocently handsome to creepy af handsome in SECONDS according to his mood.
AND OMG HIS SMIRKS AND SMILES WHEN HE LOOKS AT THE 'Female lead' OR IS 'PLANNING MURDER' make me fall on my knees.
Some scenes when i watch them I get the feeling like I'm watching a gothic horror.
Even SUSU is not your common FL. She's not helpless, it's so refreshing to actually have a strong female lead in a xianxia!!! At some incidents you will find her too CRUEL for the things she does to the ML and you won't like it but at the end of the day you get her, she is doing that from the world and even for him to an extend. God, her actions pissed me off so much but you know how it has always been.
LYX I HAIL YOU SIR. YOU WERE INSANE FOR DOING THIS!!
LYX changes his personality in a blink. He literally played 4 characters [THE ANCIENT DEVIL GOD, MINGYE, TANTAIJIN, CANGJIU MIN]and you can differentiate those character by the way they speak and carry themselves. There is something about LYX voice, its so soft but goes soo well with his characters. And for once i thank the universe that they didn't dub his voice which makes it even better!! LYX was made for this role OR i should say this role was made for LYX. His fight sequences, his smirks, his eyebrow raise will make you week.
I am on my knees of that man.?♀️?♀️?♀️?♀️
LEO LUO x BAI LU-
LYX and BL CHEMISTRY IS CHEMISTRYING. I swear you can't move your eyes off them. The eye contact they have, the touches they steal, the kissed they share, the intimate scenes they slay. the mocking glances they send each other, the way they see each other make you SCREAM!!! Their CHEMISTRY is CHEMISTRY-ING.
THE OTHER MAIN LEADS-
I am not actually very interested in the 2nd CP, the 2nd FL is just so bland and evil. Watchers on MDL called nicknamed her BITCH-ang [you will know why and get it when u watch it].
Honestly i literally wanted to skip their scenes. The 2nd FL is sooo frustrating that i wanna shout and scream and punch. The 2nd ML suffers from HERO COMPLEX and has a thing for evil damsel in distress.
But holy hell the 3rd CP has me on my toes!!! The demon fox is a freaking seductress. She screams seduction in every action she does, may it be talking or fighting or seducing!! Our poor 3rd ML didn't have any chance.
THE ONLY NEGATIVE THING-
Firstly it will be the makeup in some of the closeup scene in earlier episodes. Due to the high camera quality you find it cakey.
Secondly due to the new censorship they had to make a 56 episode drama into 40 episode so sometimes the editing seem choppy [though honestly it wont matter].
OVERALL, THIS DRAMA IS WORTH YOUR EVERY HOUR, EVERY MINUTE AND EVERY SECOND!!!
It may not be perfect but its definitely the best out there.
I laughed. I cried. I got angry. I got sad. I mourned.
LAST EPISODE HAD ME SOBBING. UGLY CRYING IS TOO SMALL A WORD TO SAY WHAT I FELT. This series is a masterpiece.
"It all started with tantaijin and it all ended with him"- BAILU, A BTS INTERVIEW.
NOW I UNDERSTOOD WHY THE TITLE WAS-
"Until the end of the moon".

AFTER KINNPORCHE I NEEDED THIS.
THIS BL is written by MAME thus naturally carry CRASH OF OPINION'S and CONTROVERSIES.In terms of their relationship, this might be one of Mame's least toxic relationship that she has written. EVER. BUT I can see the development in their characters BUT when it comes to intimacy, they become unhinged and wild.
(TW: toxicity, kinks, fetish, one night stands, sexual favors, manipulation, non-consensual touching, mind games, kidnapping, torture, gaslighting, rape, PTSD]
After kinnporche ended i though i would not be able to watch any BL. Like seeing BL's like UN and CO killed my brain cells. But this i can say is one of the good bl's out there. No its not great but its better than other. Forget better its actually one of the best bl's out there actually.
See i am one of those people that need some dose of a LESS 'lovey-dovey' and 'green flag' relationship. I need my dose of RED FLAG'S and a little bit TOXICITY from time to time. And NO this doesn't mean I encourage abuse of any form but sometimes you need to be realistic.
This BL felt realistic. IT's not your typical green flag relationship which we see in BL's. It was controversial, many scene's seem to have the non- con problem in them but they were not overdone, they conveyed what they were meant to. People had many problem with it being toxic and shit but honestly i didn't see that much of toxicity. NO this was not 100% healthy relationship but it was really realistic cuz it really happens in real life.
I felt people have connected MAME'S name with toxicity. Where people saw sexual verbal abuse i actually saw flirtation, like come on guys don't you dirty talk with your partner or tease them??? they may not have the best relationship but they were TRUE AND REAL AS THEY CAN BE.
BOTH COUPLE'S relationship is RAW. Its raw and passionate. They are INTENSE.
I MEAN IT WHEN I SAY IT'S RAW. The tension is real. YOU can see the LUST, THE PASSION, THE CUTENESS AND EVEN THE LOVE IN THIER RELATIONSHIP.
The chemistry is sizzling and scorching hot. DESPITE the facts that all the 4 actors are newbei's they have really acted well [i can even say better than most of the famous bl actor who still don't know how to act.]
AND FOR ONCE THEY CAN ACTUALLY KISS AND ITS NOT THE 'TYPICAL' COLLEGE ROMANCE. Thank god for that.
LEGITIMATE 18+ ranking. i am not kidding. THIS IS ADULT, There are quite a LOT OF detailed NC SCENE. And for once NC scene are actually amazing, like hatsoff to the actors and production. The NC scene are RAW and HOT like their chemistry.
I´m impressed by the visual quality. The music of the series both main theme song and the background song's are amazing and well placed. Both the thai and English song they have put in the series are AMAZING.
The cinematography of this series is so good, like you can see the money in the camera quality and shooting places. Like the production was in bar with the production of Kinnporche and cutie pie. The screenwriting was done really well.
The side characters are also really good, firstly they can act and for once you would actually be interested in them as well.
MUSIC. CINEMATOGRAPHY, PRODUCTION, VISUALS AND CAST get a full on 10/10 from me.
OVERALL, the PLOT may be simple, but the couple's killed it with their chemistry. The production is amazing ang this is what was needed honestly. IT's new and fresh. THE story will hook you.
PAYU AND RAIN'S story was the fluff and sweetness i needed before they dropped the bomb of RAIN AND PRAPAI, there story was full of heartbreak and pain. I FELT FOR SKY SO MUCH. Prapai was such a sweetheart.
PERSONAL OPINION- SkyPrapai >>>>>>>>>> RainPayu

Soundtrack #2: A second chance love story
Soundtrack #2 tell the story of two ex-lovers who broke up due to unavoidable circumstances and problem. They meet again after 4 years but the thing is, sparks still fly between them, unsaid feeling still hurt.TROPES- Ex-lover, rags to riches ML, strong willed FL, lovers to strangers to lover, love traingle.
Soundtrack #2 feels like a typical romance drama, except it's only a few hours long. But, the portrayal of the "lovers to strangers to lovers" trope/EX-LOVER trope feels very realistic and pragmatic.
The story is straightforward, but the manner in which it is told is entertaining.
We see the ML's POV and side of story both post and pre breakup, which is great BUT we never see the FL's POV. Which literally makes the FL look like the villian in their story. The ML's POV make you sympathize with him. His character is really likable and outgoing which again makes the FL's almost secretive and grumpy character look evrn more bad.
Even the FL's reason for the way she acted in the past and present were NOT strong enough to make me understand her. Honestly she felt like the problem.
Their acting was excellent though, specially the actor playing the ML. They were able to accurately convey the emotions of the characters. I don't have much to say about their performance. I enjoyed their chemistry.
The music was also okayish, like i didn't really find a single song i would love to add to my Playlist.
This is a nice drama to watch if you want something short. There isn't much else to say about this brief drama but it was nice enough to watch if you are bored.

WHY???????? JUST FREAKING WHY???????
I OFFICIALLY NAME THIS SERIES AS ''the bane of my existence and object of all my regrets *100000''OMG WHY! I cant stop laughing at this series, I mean I know it has a low budget but still nothing is right in this series. firstly the dialogs are terrible. It has BDSM but why they hell is it like this, like I couldn't stop laughing and others are saying "wow this is was soo good" where???? where???? How?? Like I am like WTF did I watch??!!! LOLLLL
ALSO the tattoo was freaking UGLY WHY?? WHY?? WHY would you put a robe on him then see the tattoo melting why lol. {{{{{The tattoo felt like abnormal hair growth on the back}}}}}}. IT WAS UGLY!!
I truly have to say, I have watched many BL'S some not so good but this honestly takes the cake. Could not even get through the first 5 minutes without cracking up at the horrendous editing and pacing. Fast forwarded through most of the episodes. This one is definitely not for me but great if I wanna have a good laugh AND DIE BY CRINGING.
People are comparing this to #vegaspete but honestly even dubbing it as a "poor man's kinnporsche" would be an insult to KP because it's so much worse, BRUH!! There is no comparison.
I saw it cuz i don't leave any BL's i started incomplete, but trust me guys it was so bad.
No chemistry. No expression. Was like a cheap copy of kinnporsche and 50 shades which was done BADLY. I really couldn't handle it.
People need to listen to criticism. Bro even if their was no Kinnporche to compare this series was bad. REALLY BAD.
Actors don't suit the role. They don't have Chemistry. Okay PLOT LINE???? It is good. MAFIA??? Wtf is that. Low BUDGET?? I know but still bad for the budget. BDSM??? what a joke, that felt like a child play [However, it's oh so proper cringe, childish, eroticism.] TATTOO?? Bro don't talk about it that felt more like 'abnormal hair growth on the back' than something sexy. Dialogues??? Cringe af. THE TAP??? Please people save water and forgodsake close the tap their were atleast 3 to 4 bath and tab scene with water flowing and it pissed me off.
Damn i have never laughed or cringed as much as i did watching that. Bruh this is not only bad but HORRIBLE. People can say what ever the hell they wanna say but this was a goddamnit hilarious and badly done circus.
THAT THREESOME HELLOOOOO???? CAUGHT ME OFFGUARD lololol
That literally caught me off guard. When all three bodyguards started getting action, my mind was like wtf AM I WATCHING>> and guys i am not in AWE i am in that type of disbelief that leaves you in shocked to core>> god I CRINGED THROUGH THAT WHOLE SCENE. Like one moment a bodyguard was taking a shower that other came looked at him got Horny they started making out then the third one came saw them got HORNY once again and they are like 'FUCK IT LETS HAVE CRINGY, UNCOMFORTABLE AND AKWARD THREESOME] GOD save me from that trauma. P.S but sadly god did not save me>>
FRRRRR IT WAS WILD!!! And wtf was that out of context 3some???? never got the ANSWER TO THIS QUESTION>
*AND KIM Constantly calling HIS boyfriend 'Mr Kamol', irrespective of the fact you fuck him, live with him and allegedly are in love.
*Bodyguards threesome, hotter than the main leads sex exploits and indeed kissing.
*Khamol pulled Kim into his lap and Kim did that full 360 spin?? What was that?? with the 360 spin I was like, when did this turn into a Cdrama??? XD>>> THREE whole salsa spins.
*KAMOL SPEAKING ENGLISH. RIP English, save journey to heaven. JUST RIP TO YOU ENGLISH, SORRY WE COULDN'T SAVE YOU>>
AND THE FREAKING NAMES-
*THOSE TIGERS LAMOO- they literally named them 'whipped cream'?????? DO YOU REALLY NEED A REASON TO NOT HINK ITS Ridiculous AFTER THIS
I WANT Whipped Cream TO PUT CREAM ON KIM AND EAT HIM>>> would have been the BEST ENDING EVER but sadly it did not happen>>
*THAT CHILD'S name was 'salmon'??? GUYS at least leave the damn fish and child out of this train wreak>>
a FREAKING TIGER named "whipped cream">
NOW,
a CHILD named salmon???????
what next would have been in the series if it was longer???? a dinosaur named 'POOP'???
"Unforgotten Night" and "Check out" were in a competition for the most ridiculous Thai BL of all time. I'm really not sure which one will win. I think check out won with flying colors but UN is not very far for it>>>
And compare it to KP and 50 SHADES?? Bro are people high on cocaine??? There is nothing to compare. NOTHING.
NEVER AGAIN>>> DULLY NOTED
Fool me once shame on you fool me twice shame on me>>
READING THIS COMMENT PEOPLE WILL ATTACK ME BUT DAMN DO IT BECOZ I NEEDED TO VENT OUT THE FUSTRATION I WAS FELLING AFTER WATCHING THIS DRAMA FROM 3 MONTHS.

A BITTERSWEET EXPERIENCE!!!!!
Grumpy first male lead with hardworking fierce first female lead with some kind of childhood bestfriends to enemies to lovers.The kiss sixth sense is a romantic comedy drama about a woman who can see The future when she kisses someone, it is basically adapted from webtoon of the same name. The male lead is hyper sensitive ie. he can hear from miles. see for miles. Basically his sense are really developed after he suffered an accident in his childhood.
The love relationship between the leads takes awhile to develop , and there is some misunderstanding and lack of communication (typical). However there are some nice skinship and PDA scenes.
Because it’s an office romance, you have the humor and storyline of the colleagues and after work dinners etc.. There’s also the ex-boyfriend factor - his tale was a sad and unfortunate one, but he was matured enough to handle it, i liked him a lot and the story between him and the MFL was amazing but the ending and problem they had were unnecessary[they did him bad].
Somehow the character of the ML changes when he starts dating her- he becomes more comical and cracking jokes, which I thought was out of character.
Cliché storyline. the story went pretty predictable. The whole black outfitted, cap and mask-wearing random/bad people is so out of fashion. I mean doesn't the whole black outfit negates the "hiding in plain sight" concept? I would totally notice a human in a full black outfit.
Started great, ended flat! this drama started off with a bang. I was hooked initially and the casting of the main leads were perfect considering their mature age and the office romance. The chemistry was sizzling and I loved the storyline. But as the episodes progressed, it felt like the same story in the beginning was being addressed over and over again.
I'll admit that the final 15 minutes of the last ep [ep 12]made me cringe.
We should've gotten cute moments between them but they keep on breaking up instead. Why? Because of their powers disappearing? That's why they went crazy??? That was unnecessary. The ending last 15 mins really left a bad taste in my mouth.
Recommended if you're looking for something light, sweet and fun with a little bit of mystery.
I really don't understand the need to inserting murder mystery and/or crime into a storyline. It felt out of place and absolutely unnecessary, especially for episodes 11 and 12. The ending felt rushed and could've been executed better.
OVERALL A GOOD DRAMA TO WATCH!!!!

SILLY AND NONSENSICAL [SIDE NOTE- what the hell happened???]
The saddest thing about this is that it actually started of really good and i had high expectations for it!!!
After all i am sure i want the only one excited to see out 'MR-SEXY-TAKE-MY-SPECKS-OFF-BEFORE-KISSING" from business proposal!
But unfortunately this kdrama did him and us DIRTY!!! I am seeing this and not DNFing this just for him and cuz of him. Kim Mingue has been fantastic though. He’s doing his thing and carrying this drama on his back for sure.
Everything IS JUST CRINGE. As the episodes pass the little cringe and embarrassing things just increase. The story like is getting cheesier, the characters more brat like and intolerable. The so called "HUMOUR" nothing but cringe moments. Plus the group members were corny. I love with grim reaper though.
The acting is well done by the side charters. BUT i feel the FL acing it lacking as well as that of the devil [he doesn't give off devil vibes to me] and our ML [the priest] honestly i am frustrated, don't get me wrong he acts very well but so many times i just want him to fully open his eyes wile speaking, i mean sometimes when he speaks he kind half closes his eyes and it just so frustrating and creepy!!!
AND I see NO, absolutely NO chemistry between the ML and FL!! And the FL lead being literally a stalker and obsessed fan of a kpop ideal makes it even a big NO-NO for me. The female lead's character is boring. She has no aura of authority and always appears insecure and scared, like a victim. Their romantic scenes don't give me bubbles or butterflies or flowers as they should but make me wanna skip them.
The chemistry of WYW with his members and when he makes a mistakes and how overcomes, those parts are interesting to watch though. The casting is great but something still doesn't sit well with me.
Seeing the CGI makes me want to cry, I mean whattttt??? those CGI monsters make me wanna laugh, i swear what were they thinking while making them!
I feel the plot is going astray in between and sometimes everything feels like a mess. i mean i liked the first 2 episodes but then BAAM!!! My expectations go down the drain with each passing episode.
I'll give you my honest opinion. I think the plot had the potential but the writing seems to be sloppy and the dialogues sometimes overexaggerated as well.
OVERALL, don't really recommend this drama if you want something of substance, but if you want a good laugh and don’t get second hand embarrassment then this drama is for you.

DEBORAH SAYSSSS....
THIS IS THE DRAMA FOR HEALING AND RECOVERING!!Honestly this is not the best RomCom K-drama i have seen but its good.
Its not perfect but still it does the work of keeping you hooked to the story and characters.
It covers the cheating and post breakup phase and issues pretty well. I actually love the fact that the writer tried to portray how a breakup actually works, it’s not all rosy, not every time we get to act strong, and unaffected! Breaking down is real too!
Of course writer done something out of ordinary CLICHÉS but in between writer has managed to keep walking. Kind of comedy, with enough sarcasm and realism to keep me engaged.
At times it can be CLICHÉS, CRINGE AND EMBARRASSING but it gives you the comedic relief dealing with the issues of the drama.
Those feelings of embarrassment and despair are quite relatable. And it kinda realistic as well. Her behavior after breakup didn't change, it isn't like she got over the Ex in a blink and started falling for the ML.
I feel this is the first drama I am watching where the main character is portraying each stage of a breakup thoroughly .
I often found it unrealistic in dramas and novels where the main characters move on in life very fast after a breakup . They are thoroughly showing the main leads’ grief and the improvement in their own relationship which I am liking a LOT.
The actors have done an amazing job portraying the characters, you love them, you hate them, you laugh with them and you cry with them.
THINGS I DIDNT LIKE-
>I absolutely hated that accidental pregancy arc of the side couple. It was totally unessary and destroy a perfect side couple for me.
>They messed up the "ROMANCE" part for the main leads. The ROMANCE was NOT ENOUGH, most screentime was taken by thier annoying ex and side characters. And they didnt confess or talked about it openly until the last 2 episodes.
>The relationship between sangjin and uri [one of the side couple] was REALLY UNCOMFORTABLE for me to watch. I dont know what they were trying to do but there scene were hard to watch.
OVERALL, Its a fun drama to watch, light and comedic. You can definitely give it a try.

I will LIVE for you. I will KILL for you. I will BURN for you. I will DIE for you.
"YOU ARE MY FATE THAT I CAN NOT DEFY"If GOBLIN and DOOM AT YOUR SERVICE had a baby then its definitely gonna be *MY DEMON*.
TROPES
A stong and rich CEO female lead. A notorious demon male lead. Contractual/ marraige of convince. Bodyguard romance. Murder mystery. Chaebol conflict. Protect-her-at-any-cost vibes. Star crossed past lover conflict.
My demon is the epic romantic fantasy between a sly, mischievous demon and a strong minded young heiress.
THE CAST.
The chemistry between the main leads is just CHEMISTRY-ING. The eye contact, the visuals, the banter and lets not forget the TENSION between them keeps you on your toes. Song kang and Kim Yoo Jung not only have the visuals to please the eyes but the talent to literally make you feel the character. The character will literally make you SWOON, BLUSH, GIDDY , SHY, ANGRY, SAD and sometimes even CRY.
The antagonists of My Demon adding the TENSION and FEAR to the drama that needs to keep it engaging till the end. They have a way of making you annoyed and creeped out.
And let me have the honour to SCREAM IN BOLD- "SONG KANG IN THIS DRAMA SLAYED, HIS ACTING IS SOMETHING THAT IS THE LAST THING YOU WILL FOCUS ON."
And while we are at it, we need to talk about the excellent wardrobe and hair stylist. Like damn, they both look a million bucks. There outfit scream LUXURY and honestly suit them so well.
Romance. Mystery. Thriller. Comedy. Visuals. Cinematography. And a lot of MAGIC.
It is everything i think a kdrama has to have to make it ICONIC.
The cinematography makes it one of the most beautifully shot kdrama i have seen till date. The scene are shot so beautiful which will kinda give you nostalgic feeling of the time you watching goblin and Doom at yours service.
In short, MY DEMON is the kdrama that will give you everything you will want, and is a must watch. Definition one of the best kdrama this year.

When death is NOT the end but THE BEGINNING.
"What have i done to DESERVE this? What is my SIN?""You went looking for DEATH even before DEATH came looking for you."
PLOT/STORY LINE
It's the story of a young man who's greatest sin was to go looking for death before it even ever came looking for him.[commits suicide]
Death angry at his audacity and insulted by his flippant attitude towards dying, comes to punish him with her game and mindfuckery: He is to be reincarnated into bodies of 12 people 12 times just to ultimately die, he must experience death over and over again through 12 other lives. But the only way to change is if he can find a way to survive the imminent death coming for these lives, he gets to live out their lifetime in the same body.
The ML is not A PERFECT HUMAN, no he is just as selfish, greedy, stupid, overconfident. And he is also sensitive, emotional and sentimental. He has faults and i think thats makes the story even more better.
The DRAMA has everything. It has THRILLER, ROMANCE, COMEDY, very DARK HUMOUR[surprisingly], ACTION SCENES.
CAST/ACTING
Holy shit, can i say this cast is like INSANE. Like it screams A MILLION BUCKS and has HIGH BUDGET written all over it in bold. Dare i say this might be the most iconic cast in a decade, like imagine all the famous and amazing K-actors of recent time all coming together to create a big bang with this.
And not only the cast is giving the VISUALS but that acting is a slay. The way each actor portrays the character and story is just chef's kiss.
The way you see the protagonist goes through thousand different feeling during the whole trail makes you feel like you are living the character.
The feeling of hopelessness, sadness, betrayal, pain, anger, frustration is so potent in the series that you feel it in your bones.
THE CINEMATOGRAPHY, THE VISUALS, THE OST, THE BGM, THE PLOT LINE, THE ACTION SCENES.
Everything seems like perfection.
Like i have nothing more to say other than that NOT WATCHING this is a loss. It is damn near the best kdrama i have potentially seen this year.

The captivating story of a CUPID who was hit by his own arrow!!
It is a story about a cupid named who's wings were burned due to a ignorant mistake he made 500 years ago.To restore his wings, he went through 27 metamorphoses. On his 28th time, he gets involved with Oh Baek Ryun.Baek Ryun is a veterinarian. She is a pretty woman but whenever these men got into a romantic relationship with her, they always had a near-death experience and would then run away from her.
Soon their fates and destiny intervene and secrets about their unfaithful past come into light. What seem like an instant connection soon turn into a 500 year old game of fate.
The drama is good. It started slow but as the episodes increase and the plot thickens it actually showed a lot of potential.
THE CAST
Nana as always is just beautiful in this drama. She plays the emotions of the FL quite beautiful but the ML seems to be a disappointment. Its not quite often, i comment on the acting but he still isn't to the par of other korean actors. His face remains expressionless at all instants. Other than the ML mediocre acting everyone else seem good.
The STAR CROSSED FACTOR and the past life trope might be a clique but is done quite well.
The cinematography and camera quality remain top notch.
Overall, MY MAN IS CUPID is a fun watch if your in mood of some new plot line but with the same kdrama clique.

WHAT IF I REMEMBER ALL MY 19 LIFES???
If i were to describe this show in a few words its definitely gonna be- A BEAUTIFUL LOVE THAT HURTS or 50 SHADES OF LIFE.This is the story of LIFE and DEATH. REINCARNATION and REBIRTH.
This is the story of 19 life's of a soul. A soul who has experienced it all 19 times and remembers each one of them, its both a curse and girl for it.
The soul has seen it all, BIRTH, HATE, LOVE, GREIF, LOSS, LONGING, HAPPINESS, SADNESS, MELANCHOLY AND DEATH.
This K-drama is simply beautiful, not just its cinematography and production but the STORY itself is simply BEAUTIFUL.
The theme of a romcom set in a melancholic vibes that makes you smile one second and then laugh the next. The premise of the drama is certainly a new take on fantasy. I smiled, I laughed, I cried. I did all this seeing this.
The characters are deep all with their own trauma but somehow all those trauma relate to a certain DEATH. The deep rooted pain and love is what i think make them all so relatable and complex.
When i started watching it i though the drama would be SLOWEST of slowburns but to my surprise the pacing of the romance part is perfect, Slow but you see the improvement. You see them fall over again. THE SOULMATE VIBES do the work here. Different body, different name but the same SOULMATE connection.
OVERALL, This drama is for all those that can see a hidden gem. This drama touches your very soul. I want to say so much but i wouldn't spoil it. Watching it is an experience that i wont like to take away from anyone.

Betrayal, Revenge and a Driven ML with a punch of time hocus-pocus))
Firstly I wanna say how excited I was for this to release. Song Joong Ki is one of the most talented korean actors. He has given the world absolute germs like DOTS and VINCENZO. So naturally I had high expectations for this one as well. AND i can proudly say he did not disappoint.I LOVE THE GRANDFATHER. Lee Sung Min portrayed his character as the head of the family with insulting words. His actions and silence conveyed more than his words. His eyes and facial expressions, raised the standard. His character is not shitty like i expected and the dynamic between him and Doojon is the most interesting part of the story. Like those two on the screen at the same time were just explosive. I didn't know song joong ki can have such chemistry with a man more than twice his age.
SONG JOONG KI once again showed why he is one of the highest paid actors in Korea. He was amazing like always. I cant imagine he is 37, he looked NOT more than a day above 20 here. He literally went from playing the role of a 45 years old quite, well behaved working man in suit and glasses with well kept hair who is just sad and depressed, living only for his family serving those rich asses TO a free, extra smart, scheming 20 years old in T shirts' and over coats with wild hair, who is just cheeky and happy.
The child actor in EPISODE 2 did such a crazy job. He slayed the role, Like his eyes spoke volumes and the way he portrayed the emotions and character was just admirable.
The storyline and plot seems batshit crazy. And i feel its solely focused on the REVENGE part of the drama and the ROMANCE seem to be a side aspect [Which i like the most, cuz most time the romance part destroys the revenge aspect of the dramas].
TO BE HONEST, I didn't give two shit about the romance. To me, it was BLAND, UNNESSARY AND FRUSTRATING!!
The female lead was the blandest FL i have seen [i am not even exaggerating]. I swear i rather skip her scene. She was a hypocrite with no personality or substance. It felt like she just existed.
And I one hundred percent shipped dojun and his sister in law [ik, ik, ik she was toxic and etc etc but she atleast had a PERSONALITY and MOTIVE unlike *cough* the FL]. Basically i love a good evil female.
The OST, color grading and CINEMATOGRAPHY is really good. Scenes are shot really well specially some of the action one's
The time line seem to be a little confusing at times with speculations of whether he was reborn or simply was simply taken back in time.
THE ENDING, to be honest i was kinda DISSAPOINTED WITH IT. I don't know what the hell happened in those last 2 ep but AHHH!!!! I wanted to scream in frustration. Still overlooking it i will definitely recommend this drama!!
OVERALL its a must watch even if you rather bawl your eyes off than seeing that romance part or the ending in which they did us BAD!!!

SUNSHINE and GRUMPHY??? [BOUND TO FALL IN LOVE]
This was one of the most hyped series of 2022 for sure. I mean literally everyone was waiting for this to air. Firstly cuz i think its the first proper Thai GL we have ever gotten and secondly cuz even with so much BL popularity nowadays we sadly don't have many GL to look into. I mean i could literally count the number of GL series available online worldwide which is actually sad.I was trying to manage my expectations because the hype for this has been so strong and I didn't want to be disappointed, but holy hell this delivered! Even with the first episode mostly being used to introduce the characters/plot, it was so well done!!!! Even the clichés felt fresh, because WOMEN!!!!!
I can't believe we have a office romance with the cold CEO trope and I am so thankful they didn't go the school route. Office romance remains superior and adding SUNSHINE and GRUMPHY to the mix??? THATS THE RECIPE FOR A MASTERPIECE.
I love our leads & also kirk as well. Sam is a softie with a tough exterior & Mon has a good heart. Typical, but still the best office romance.
Even though Sam is meant to be an ice princess, the actress is doing so well in putting a tinge of sadness behind her persona. The uncomfortable tension that Sam brought to the workplace whenever she entered the room. Her whole vibes scream BOSS BITCH, and i love it.
Then there's Mon who is just a sweetheart, a ray of sunshine on the mission to melt the ice princess. HER ICE PRINCESS.
AND CAN WE HAVE 2 MINUTE SILENCE FOR THOSE OUTFITS???? CUZ holy shit, they were sexy as hell and suit there personality so well. I mean beauty with brain and add money to the mix?? I CAN'T.
Anyway I think this will be a revolutionary GL and can be the start of more GL series to come in the future.
THOUGH PLZZZZZ not that house again I swear, LOL.
They keep recycling the same sets in Thai BLs, didn't expect to see it in a GL as well pfft. I'm pretty sure every BL watcher knows that house by now. That place has become a character itself! From Don't say no and Cutie Pie to The Eclipse and then also Unforgotten Night too!>>>
IT Delivered!!! highly recommended and more after seeing the almost nil GL content!!
