I have never been a HUGE huge fan of either main casts but I do love them. So when news about this drama airing first came out, I wasn't as hype as my other friends were.
People complimented the first episode endlessly and I decided to wait for the drama to be completed to watch it (because I have no patience and I usually watch everything in one go). But after some time, people began leaving negative feedback on the drama.
Here is my opinion:
- the plot is kind of amazing? it's probably not original, but it has the perfect amount of cliche-ness that a drama would need to have. There are several parts that made me think "oh, so she's this. wait. no. wait. yes. oh, she isn't. wait, she is." in the span of 5 minutes. There may be some parts that can come out as confusing, but this gets resolved as they explain it in the next episodes.
- the cast is kind of VERY much amazing. Everyone did an outstanding job, but Woo Do Hwan (with his two characters) won me over the moment I watched the episode.
- the cinematography?? beautiful.
- the HUMOR is 10/10.
- I have never been satisfied with drama endings, but this was okay. I originally thought that I wouldn't like the ending that they had chosen, but they tied up the loose ends pretty well. I ended up liking the ending lol.
- one of the only downside of this drama is the chemistry between the main leads. After watching the behind-the-scenes, I was kind of disappointed that their off screen chemistry wasn't transferred on screen :/ I felt that the relationship between the characters progressed too quickly as well.
Overall, I would suggest anyone to give this drama a try. I absolutely love this drama, and still can't move on from it even though it has been a couple of weeks since I completed it.

P'Aof never disappoints
I don't usually write reviews in MDL, but I reaaallly need to show my appreciation (and obsession) towards this series so here I am.I bet everyone started this show thinking it's another romantic comedy BL series. Well they aren't wrong, except.. well it's not just any other rom-com series. But what I think really differentiates Bad Buddy from other series is the way the cast deliver the scenes. The acting is top tier, the cast was amazing, and the music is even more amazing (the OSTs sang by Nanon are so gooood ughh). The plot is really realistic, and shows people what happen when toxicity doesn't exist in a relationship (PatPran bestest boys <3 ). All the couple scenes were reaaaally natural (something a lot of BL series lack imo lol), and viewers are guaranteed to unknowingly smile while watching!! Wait till you find out the behind-the-scene stories on these sweet moments and your sugar level might reach an all-time high.
Reasons to watch this series:
- Ohm
- Nanon
- free happy pill
- OhmNanon
- makes you feel giddy inside
- also makes you feel single af
- have I mentioned that the chemistry between Ohm and Nanon is *chef's kiss*?
- Pat (Ohm's character)
- Pran (Nanon's character)
- PatPran
- shirtless Ohm (plural) ;)
- whipped Pat
- whipped Pran
Not many good dramas have good endings, but this.. wow. This satisfied me into being okay not having a season 2. I have rewatched episode 12 an unhealthy amount of times and I don't think I'm stopping anytime soon. This series is going to have a special place in my heart for a long long time. Without further ado, go to youtube and watch the series!! if you've watched it, then go rewatch it!!
