Terribly good-

Okay so i am guilty of being hooked by this show. I really liked the first few episodes however things got ridiculous in the last few episodes.
I was impressed by James’ acting- he has really good. Micro expressions.
The story has been done before but they didn’t do it better.
Non of the characters appeared to actually be in love. It seemed very disingenuous for me. People seemed to just fall in and out of love easily. Kim declaring his love and then all of a sudden seeming okay with it all. Long Fei declaring his love only after overhearing a phone conversation. Does it make it okay that he was blackmailing his BF for years. Elys declaring his love at the end of the episode.
Everything was wrapped up in a neat little bow that doesn’t make sense.
I wish studio Wabi Sabi had picked this up as they tend to follow the books more.


Despite all that i enjoyed the show it was terrible, I mean it was bad that it became good lol. It wasn’t boring and it kept me engaged.

A lot of potential never dared to use

The show had potential and it wasn´t used. A pitty.
The Bad Guy his Boss stayed "monochrome" and did not develop from Ep 1 to 12. The Mafia guy and his lover looked a bit like we need to have them. The friend with benefits ... the most attrctive is the cast, in my opinion (everybody has his own taste). The 3ed couple disintegrated when the lover was forced to be criminal and failed ... And his lover made the "irrational move". Btw. the fighting scenes ... there cpould be improvement to make them better than a shitty dance.
For the subs ... don´t they control what they write? I know it´s hard to do and get it done quick. But Mr. Elyse writing as Alice so often, and then so often the wrong tense. I am not a native English speaker, but such was hammered into us when in school. While reading you stumble over and get lost, or near to. It´s allready stressing enough to read the subs an follow the show.
The storyline of the show lacked from the 1st moment on and never improved. This triggered me for an own story to write about an abusive CEO/manager. I am a writer who´s 1st book will be published end of March 2025. A seroies, spanning from 18th to 21st century a 4 gay main leeds deciding for the family businees at important turning points. Mixed with gay love.
Anyhow this story lacks a lot and looks more like something hasty glued together to make investors happy a take a share in the BL market.
I watched till the end, despite all of my complains ... as it got me inspired, but not for the good work done here. In the end the show way a puddle of max 1mm depth max.

DO NOT START THIS TRAIN WRECK

Much like a lot of massively destructive train wrecks, you can’t look away from this series because you want Pat to survive Mr. Elyse.

This has the potential to be hot and sexy from the trailer that brought us all here. But the actors are so bad in delivering the lines with any authenticity. The acting part was not as bad as the line delivery but it isn’t good either. This Pat at least didn’t have the constipated look of the other Pat from the Thai office BL that came out last year. Luckily I forget the name of that series. With any luck I will forget this one too.

This Pat had as much sex appeal as the other Pat. Mr. Elyse has a nice body and the clothes look good on him. I can’t say that his face matches the same sex appeal as his body but this is subjective. Anyway, Mr Elyse is the reddest flag of a boss and Pat either loves red or is colorblind. Or maybe he lives Mr. Elyse’s sexy body just as much as me. That’s why he’s over looking this STD magnet with his rotation of bed friends.

I don’t see why Pat fell for him as he’s a total POS in terms of how he treats Pat as an employee not to mention being his madame for the gigolos. Pat is definitely has a masochist kink to want to sex up Mr. Elyse. I wish it was a SM BL because I would like to see 50 shades of dirty with Mr. Elyse and Pat. But unfortunately they make this just a vanilla virgin who likes a toxic red flag.

I am bailing at this point because I am halfway through a 10 episode series and I don’t care if Pat survives or not from this train wreck. But if you like train wrecks and have time to kill. Enjoy.

a thot of a boss

Sorry, but Pat is so much better than me because I would have left the country a long time ago if a man had friend with benefits and shoved it in my face all the time while knowing about my undying love for him. The one scene where all of Elyes's sleeping partners AND Pat were in the same room, no. Lost me. I guess I expected too much from this but the acting was still great.

Were IMDB tripping when they rated this drama?

The acting is horrible. The music is as disappointing as it is in most BLs, if not more so. The story is nothing special. It is like all the other mostly subpar Thai BLs out there. The dialogues are nothing special either. Overall, the drama is disappointing and overrated. Still waiting for a perfect BL that deserves a high IMDB rating because most of them ain't it!

Une série divertissante qui devient ennuyeuse

Le début était génial : un secrétaire fou amoureux de son chef alors qu'il sait pertinemment que ce n'est une bonne personne et qui a suffisamment de caractère pour lui tenir tête quand c'est nécessaire. Malheureusement, la série tourne en rond et on finit par se lasser des conflits qui, au final, sont les mêmes. Le couple secondaire aurait mérité plus de temps d'écran car eux aussi avaient de sérieux problèmes à régler et leur histoire était intéressante.

It was like watching a car crash but I still loved it idc

Where do I start with this disaster? 😭

Let's just say, objectively speaking, ITS NOT GOOD, but I love it way more than I would like to admit, its PEAK trash TV and I was SAT every week loving this mess and getting frustrated with both Pat and Elyes.
Maybe its bcs I grew up on trashy melodramatic soap operas but I WAS LIVING for this

Is it bad? Yes
Is the acting good? Not really
Will you want to push Elyes down a flight of stairs? Yes
Was half of the love drama necessary? No lmao
Do I love this? YES
Do I want more of these two? YES
Would I rewatch this disaster? YES

Conclusion: This is Unforgotten Night 2.0, so bad its somehow good, camp at its finest and I'm not 100% sure whether I mean it as an insult or compliment

On today's episode of office BLs: Is it romance or is it workplace harassment?

I've watched about one and a half episodes of this train-wreck, and while I'm not usually one to judge and review shows based on so little run-time, I just have to with this one. Usually, I persevere through bad shows, hoping they'll get better, but in 9 out of 10 cases, I end up regretting to have wasted my time. So, in the spirit of self-care, I will not make myself suffer through another minute of this mess.

I normally don't review shows I've only seen so little of since I don't really think it's fair. So take my review with a grain of salt. But what I have seen of it has been so painful, I just have to rant about it.

The most glaring issue by far is the acting, specifically James as Mr. Elis. I really don't like to shit on actors because it is a difficult job. But boy oh boy, this guy cannot act at all. Okay, that might be a bit harsh. Maybe he could pull off another role, but definitely not this one. Mr. Elis is supposed to be this stern, fierce, confident company boss. Instead of looking fierce or strict, though, he just ends up looking either constipated or like he's a moustache-twirling villain, practicing for his villain monologue at the end of a terrible movie. This role would've demanded for a ton of charisma and charm, which the actor has absolutely none of. Thus, he comes across like a walking plank of wood with angry eyes attached to it. When Elis is supposed to look happy, James somehow makes him looks evil. In one flashback where Elis was supposed to be portrayed as kind by buying food for Pat, he had this evil smirk on his face like he poisoned the meal or something. I was literally waiting for Pat to get up and drop dead to the floor. Elis looks angry in scenes that are (what I assume to be a poor attempt at being) romantic, and when he's supposed to actually act like a tough boss, he's unconvincing. It really looks like he's a robot who's got a wrong program installed, thusly mixing up all kinds of human emotions. It's borderline unwatchable, but it is kind of funny.
The acting performances of everyone else involved don't stand out as either bad or great, so I'll leave that judgment to people who choose to watch more of the show. But if one of your main leads stands out so badly, I just cannot rank this higher than a 5 in terms of acting.

On top of the poor acting, there is zero chemistry between the main leads. As established, Elis just looks like he wants to kill Pat whenever he gets close, and Pat looks uncomfortable more than anything. Which I cannot fault him for because this feels like a bad case of workplace harassment. Mr. Elis tried to kiss Pat, Pat told him he's not comfortable with it, and then in the next episode, Elis keeps getting close to him in several almost-kisses. It's not cute or hot, it's scary. Maybe if there was actual sexual tension and Elis didn't look like he's planning to commit murder every time he steps close to Pat, this would've worked better. But it's all just painfully uncomfortable. There's no vibe, no sparks, just an immense sense of threat.

All that put me off the show entirely. But here are some other random grievances I have with the first episode and a half:
- If you centre your story around a boss, you should dedicate some time to establish what company he's the boss of. The first episode did nothing to inform viewers, so he's just some vague CEO.
- The characters don't seem to have personalities outside of their work persona. Pat is a dedicated assistant, Elis is a strict boss. That's all I could tell you about them. There's no appeal, no personality, no nothing to get attached to, or root for them.
- The editing and overall premise is confusing. At the start of the first episode, when they graze arms, we get a brief scene of Elis and Pat getting down and dirty. I still don't know what that was about. At first, I thought they were currently having an affair, which isn't the case as it seems. So what was that about? Was that just a dream sequence? Pat's imagination? Did they sleep with each other in the past and now they're not? You should make sure your first episode establishes these things clearly.
- We've reached a new low of flashbacks. You know how I complain about shows flashing back to scenes that happened two minutes ago? Well, this show flashes back to a FLASHBACK that we got two minutes ago. It is also filled with flashbacks in general which is something I just don't generally vibe with. If you have that much to tell about the past, maybe you should've started your story at another point in time.
- The dialogue often feels clunky and unnatural, especially among Pat and his two friends. They also give off big cringe energy which I assume will only get worse.
- Pat needs to get his glasses adjusted. If you have to push them up so many times, you need to get them fixed. This is not supposed to happen.

That's as much as I can say. I've promised myself not to suffer through any more BLs when my gut tells me they're just going to end up making me frustrated. Besides, I'm just not one for office romances if the two people involved are in different power positions. It just makes me feel uncomfortable, especially when one of them is as pushy as Mr. Elis here. Therefore, I will now distance myself from this series, and devote my time to better shows. If this does turn out to become a masterpiece of cinema, my words shall be damned, but I really doubt that.

Perfect series!!!

Perfect series!!! Great script, great actors and good music. Waiting frantically from episode to episode. Highly recommended!!!
The story is constantly moving forward... in my opinion it is never boring for a moment and there is always something new that is discovered and much that has not yet been discovered. Very intriguing!!!
The main couple are stunning together!! The chemistry between them drives the viewers crazy!!! You see that Alice loves Pat very much, but is stuck in his trauma from the relationship he had with Run... and this is expressed in a lack of communication between the two.
In addition to that, I really liked that the story got more and more intriguing!!! I like that unlike other series, in this series the secondary characters are not frozen and banal but actually take part in the mysterious story.
Highly recommended!!!!
