And this time it’s even about dramas other than MYATB. 😉

Love Next Door

I watched the 1st episode and I liked it. I was a bit underwhelmed at first, but by the end of that episode I knew I definitely wanted to watch more. I still don’t really care for the female lead Bae Seok Ryu (although tiny Seok Ryu in the flashbacks is cute as a button and tough as nails 😊). But I already love Kim Ji Eun as Seok Ryu’s friend Jung Mo Eum – she’s awesome. And Jung Hae In as the male lead is so pretty, even with his unflattering haircut (but I got used to it by the end of the 1st ep 😊). I look forward to watching more.


Summer Night

It’s such a sweet, relaxing weekly watch for me. And look, I love messy, angsty and complicated stuff, but sometimes it’s so comforting to watch something like this – surprisingly mature teenagers having honest conversations about their feelings, where nobody is villainized for feeling the way they feel.

Also wow, someone on their creating team sure seems to ship Dunk and Phuwin hard. Heh... And I can see why, they do have great chemistry. The drama gives them ship teasing moments almost in every episode, despite both of their characters being straight here and having female love interests. I wish Thailand wasn’t so rigidly stiff when it comes to fixed BL pairings and let actors have different partners from time to time. Like, after Moonlight Chicken, I would die for another drama with Mix and First as lovers. Or yes, Dunk and Phuwin right now.


BL dramas

There are too many new dramas I want to try now. My to-watch list keeps growing and growing. Still it’s better to have too many than not enough. 😊 Especially since I dropped three dramas lately, so I have time to watch something new.

I finally dropped Sunset x Vibes, after eight episodes. It was so disappointing, so badly written, and so unsexy that even Mos and Bank’s chemistry couldn’t save it for me.

I also dropped two new Japanese BL dramas:

Takara’s Treasure, after three episodes – so boring, and I didn’t feel any chemistry between leads.

Cosmetic Playlover, also after three episodes – very uneven, the 1st ep was pretty good, and then the next two were bad. But I might get back to it one day, since both lead actors are good, and their chemistry is scorching.

Then I started another new Japanese BL I Hear The Sunspot this Sunday, and after watching the 1st episode I instantly watched the next two. It’s so cute and charming and optimistic.

Sugar Dog Life continues to be fluffy and sweet, and adorable, too. It’s another relaxing weekly watch for me, and I’m so grateful to that person doing fansubs.

The Trainee is pretty cute, too, and surprisingly realistic when it comes to portraying what it’s like to start your first job, and make mistakes and try to learn to do better. Another important, albeit very shallow, reason for me tuning in to watch this drama every week is how gorgeous Off is here. 😊 Yep, this is the hottest Off look for me out of all the dramas I saw him in.

And 4 Minutes is on Gaga now, so it will be easier to watch. But I’m waiting for this one to finish airing.
