It hits different
I rarely write reviews for dramas since it takes me so much time to do so but this one is just too good to miss out on. I swear this one is my favorite chinese drama of all time and I have seen a lot. I’ve rewatched it four times and the emotions are still there every single time.This drama may not be for everyone because of its tropes, but most of them are my top tropes so this drama is really for me. Although I get really bored easily, I never got bored of Begin Again. I also really really love the main couple, their chemistry and everything about them.
You should give this one a try.

It's fun to watch
This show is more hilarious and entertaining than you think.Every episode had me laughing so hard, and I genuinely enjoyed it. The cast was a great group of people, you'll end up being invested with them and their relationships with one another. Not to mention how beautiful and breathtaking their trips together were. The games they played were fun and the scenery was amazing. If you want to feel your heart flutter, become frustrated and nervous (due to the partner selection), and laugh your heart out, I suggest watching this.

It holds a special place in my heart.
Every Carat(cubics too, lol ><) should watch this show. You will see our thirteen boys, who are still new to the kpop industry and variety shows, unveil their cute bare faces and will do several things (fishing, lighting up a fire, cooking, etc.) on their own to be able to eat and have fun at the same time. They were such babies! This show just brings so much joy to me and I know it will do the same to everyone who watches this too. I hope they will visit the place this year and reminisce their memories <3Was this review helpful to you?
I LOVE IT!
I have been waiting for this series for so long ever since the first trailer was dropped last year. Ohm and Nanon are leads, the story is interesting and it made me very intrigued, and on top of that, P'Aof is the director. It's impossible for me not to like it. I tend to be very picky on the shows I watch and I have actually lost interest in Thai BL dramas when a surge of mediocre dramas started to take over the past years. One day, when I was scrolling on YouTube, GMMTV2021 livestream was on my recommended videos, and I was curious of what kind of series they have to offer. Coincidentally, when I opened the stream, Bad Buddy was next to be shown. The first trailer was playing on the screen and I really didn't think much of it. I thought it was another series about school, mystery, detective of some sort, like Blacklist and The Gifted, which is the forte of Nanon and well, he was definitely the main character. The cast was also kind of familiar, there were Nanon, Ohm, Drake, Love, and all of those other gmmtv actors whom I have seen in other dramas before. BUT, as the trailer gets to the middle I was like... "Is this actually a BL?!?" I was shocked, it never crossed my mind that the trailer playing in front of me was actually a BL series. The trailer comes to an end and the main cast walked on the stage and I was zoning out, haha. I was not expecting Nanon to act in a BL series this year, but I am not complaining, I like it already. I've known Nanon for a while and it's a given that he is a GREAT Actor. Everybody knows that, especially if they have watched most of his shows. I can even say that he belongs in the top 3 best actors in gmmtv. For Ohm, I have only seen two of his works, which is He is Coming to Me, which is also directed by P'Aof (It's amazing, really) and Blacklist. I can say that he can act, as well. The pairing of the both of them made everyone shookt, no one saw it coming. I just know that they are very good friends for years, as they are part of gmmtv's 2000 line with Chimon. While both Ohm and Nanon can act, they never overshadowed the other. They have AMAZING chemistry and the director thought that there was no need to built it further because it is already natural for the two. Ohm as Pat and Nanon as Pran... them playing these roles are perfect! Even P'Aof thinks that they are the only people who can be Pat and Pran ever since the beginning. It is still on its 5th episode but it's going really great. The people who are watching can't wait another week for the next episode. The plot and build up is exciting and captivating that you are being pulled to the story of Pat and Pran as every episode is released. The OST plays a huge part in the series and it is sung by Nanon. Just Friend? (the title) is a great song and it's been on repeat ever since it was released. When one talks about this series, you must not skip the details. It's the DETAILS that gives you all the feels. The amazing acting and the details, you can't help but say... wow. I have waited for so long for this series to air and the wait was worth it. The cast, director, staff, everyone behind this amazing series, kudos to you all. It's been so long since I felt so giddy over a Thai series but THIS IS IT. It's definitely in the top of my favorite series of all time, even if it's still on its 5th episode. I may have rated its rewatch value as 9 stars but it's only because I can't stand Pat's friends at times and also those fight scenes that I tend to skip when rewatching. However, it is still great overall. In conclusion, I love Bad Buddy so much.Was this review helpful to you?
If you haven't seen this yet, please do.
It's ironic that this is my headline because I am years late to the party. However, it's indeed a great piece and a must-watch! The last time I watched a Thai series was in 2021 because I lost interest, especially with the overwhelming amount of BL dramas being produced since then. This looks like your typical high school drama because of the premise and plot, but the script is well done, and they executed it very well. The pacing is perfect, and every second is worth watching. I am guilty of skipping scenes in other dramas because I can't bear them anymore, but I had no such problem with this series. I adored the songs, and I love the friendships. I can't find anything wrong with this drama—it's cute, simple, silly, heartfelt, and worth your time.The main characters were so well-written, and the development of their relationship feels so natural. Perhaps it's because the main leads have so much chemistry and are great actors. When they simply stared at each other, it didn't feel forced like in other shows.
I have so much love for Tinn and Gun. I envy their healthy relationship so much, and I want what they have.
P.S. Fourth is a phenomenal actor—his eyes speak novels, his delivery of lines isn't awkward, and his smile is a different discussion, one I could write countless paragraphs about. I love him so much; I wish I could keep him in my pocket.
P.S. I can confidently say that this is my favorite GMMTV drama of all time. Considering how much I've seen, that speaks volumes

i got surprisingly addicted to this
this was soooooooo cute. i personally can’t deal with second hand embarrassment but the way shinomiya looks so endeared at fukuhara even when he’s always doing something too much— how can i also not be endeared? plus sota is a great actor, his facial expressions are on point.i watched episode 1 without knowing any background of the story so i initially found it rushed and your typical bl drama but after convincing myself to continue, i just can’t stop. i really really loved shinomiya’s character, his actions and words towards fukuhara, i want someone like him for me. ><
p.s. i love it when shinomiya smiles. i may or may not have fell in love
