One of the best japanese BL I have watched

For those who are wondering, this serie has a *happy ending*

I love everything about this series. Maybe the only thing I would have liked more, is for it to be longer. But if you really think about it, it's total length is almost a movie.

First of all, they followed the manga to a T. Even the whole series followed the full volume one of the manga, except for the extras, which I had hoped they included as well in the series because it contains some cute, steamy scenes.

Next, I love the acting and the actors. Togawa especially have acted the best. I can really feel their emotions in their eyes, so it is really apparent when they'd fall in love. I also really love both of their characters. Togawa is just a really straightforward ikemen who wanted to be with Nozue any moment he wants and he really grabs it.

Also, the communication in this serie is *chef's kiss*

I hope they have a season 2 because the manga has a second volume, and I am loving it. I deeply recommend this serie to all readers. You'll definitely love this!

One of the best Japanese BL live actions

For those who are wondering, this serie has a *happy ending*

Now, for those who plan to watch this, keep in mind that this is a Japanese BL. Jap BL is always light, sweet, and slow. It's like a shounen ai manga (well it is). So, if you are looking for NC scenes and tons of kisses, this is not for you.

I said that this is one of the best live actions as they astonishingly followed through the original work, even the acting is on point. Even Takara's dead voice and expressions. He's just designed that way ?
I love the communication of the couple is this series, just chef's kiss. No issue is prolonged and they make sure that they tell what they feel upfront.

I have no issue whatsoever in this series. It is light and cute and kept me giggling and feeling butterflies till the end. I recommend readers to watch this!!

Also, best character for me is Katori. I love him!

A very selfish person

*for those who are wondering, this is a happy end*

PROS:
- I like how it made me on the edge of my seat to know who enchante is. The answer is also very unexpected.
- the backgrounds, camera work and cinematography is very nice. A tad lower than vice versa though.
- the kiss scenes are superb.
- the families are well casted.
- ost ❤️

CONS:

The cons far outweigh the pros. That is why I gave it a very low rating:

- the worst last episode I have ever seen. It was sooo mediocre that I almost gagged. The kiss scene and the proposal was quite good but it did not save it.
- I felt that Theo is a very selfish person. All throughout the series, I felt this one sidedrelationship between AkkTheo and I didnt like that. There is no scene whatsoever that Theo did something sweet or romantic for Akk, really. Quite disappointing.
- there are a lot of plot points in which they tried to solve ever single one of it in the last episode, which made it a bit condense and confusing.
- I really did not feel they were finally together, other than the instances when they call themselves boyfriends.
- I also didnt like how the series tried to gaslight us viewers into thinking that the 3 enchante wannabes are acquitted just because they are too 'pitiful.' not enough episodes to make me think otherwise of them.


All in all, I will still suggest you watch it. The actors are very handsome and well-casted, just a very poorly written story in which they tried to stretch it to 10 episodes. But I think it is not something I will watch again.

Loving the chemistry

*happy ending* for the main couple

What to love:
- the chemistry of the main couple on and off screen is off the charts. The acting. Everything is just chef's kiss. I felt how they are both so comfortable with each other and how they enjoy each other's company.
- the acting felt like I was not watching the series, but instead is watching like a bystander. I think its because of how the camera work flowed throughout the series.
- I really like how they are both pursuing their own careers.
- I really liked what Jin Xun An did in the last few episodes for Bai Lang. I really felt how he really kept in mind lang lang and his future woth him
- I really loved the sister a lot. And I can relate so much to her. Though I didnt like how the series just pushed her to this single guy like a scapegoat. Not everyone needs a love story to be happy and I hoped they focused on that instead.
- Jin Xun An's employees are the best.

What might need a few tweaks:
- Personally, the Chi Ren Min and Big A couple does not really work for me. I also didnt see the significance of putting that story plot in the series really.
- I felt that the physical abuse part was swept under the table? It felt that there was unjust justification with the whole thing.
- I hoped to see development with Bai Lang's trauma. For instance, did he finally went to therapy?


This is one of the best comforg BLs to watch. So, if you are looking for something fluffy, and sweet, this is a good recommendation for you.
Planning to rewatch this again soon~

I can see the love.

*happy ending*
*supportive parent on one side, and the other to follow*

I watched because of the buzz regarding the couple. It was posted that they really ended up together in real life and that's why I watched. And lo and behold! The intimate scenes really looks like they are in love. They are very comfortable with each other and I liked how they incorporated real working scenes such as them working on divorce cases each episode.

I feel like this could've go on for a lot more episodes, especially if they handle various types of cases.

The cameos of BL actors from HIStory and Beloved in the house is a huge surprise for me and I love it!

Shout out to Fu li gong's very supportive father!

I fell in love with all the clichés

This serie has a *happy ending*

The acting still needs tweaking especially with regards to Jiang Chi. I guess it was his face that has that type of smiley look or he just dont have any other expressions other than poker and the smirk.
Bu xia is uber cute. I really like his round eyes.

For the plot, I find it very confusing how the enemies to lovers trope started. Its like before I know it, Bu xia is already mad at Jiang Chi for whatever reasons.
The clichés that taiwanese dramas and chinese dramas often portrayed, i.e, uber rich, arrogant seme x clumsy but cute uke is sooo hilariously portrayed that I loved it. A lot of scenes are also too cliché that even the most serious scenes kept me laughing.

The lovey dovey scenes are a chef's kiss. Much like My tooth your love. I am sufficiently satisfied in this matter.

Overall, I will still rewatch this gem but not for the plot. I hope that the looming second season gives us a more oomph.

They tried to fit all tropes miserably

*happy ending* story


Don't get me wrong, the story is cute, the actors are handsome too. However there are a lot of discrepansies during the series that made the flow of the story kind of weird for me.

First of all, I did not know when Team leader nim fell in love. It's like he is soo rude in the episode and in the next he is already finding landlord cute.

The money issue is not solved, the parent-not-accepting a gay son/people prejudice trope is also not properly discussed. It's like they tried to solve it with just i-love-you-i-dont-care-about the world solution and then have a timejump to 8 months and end them with kissing.

I feel like the flow will be much greater if it was extended to a longer season.

Landlord nim's reason for leaving is alsooo soo shallow. I laughed at it so much. I also didnt know or notice how landlord nim fell in love. Its just like one moment and he is already in love?

The kiss was great tho.

This is a great series to watch if there are anybody present behind you, it's just a series with a tinge romance.

My Broccoli heart got destroyed by the writing

*Happy ending for all couples*

First off, the premise is a massive click bait for me. The first few episodes are hot, emotional and exciting. However, as the episodes go on, it became a bit dull for me. The actors' acting are what kept me going.

At the latter episodes, especially the last few episodes, I felt that they are trying to fit almost every BL concept we know of into 12 episodes:

One is that we have 5 couples in this series, all with different issues and all issues are solved in one to two episode (which is about 11-12) which gave a feeling of being rushed and too much. Also, because of that, there was not much focus on WinTeam.

Secondly, most issues discussed in this series are deep, but then they are all solved haphazardly? The scenes are too short, and it made the resolutions of each story too subpar.

Other things I didn't like are that of WaanTul couple. The story about them is great, the actors are great, but the romance thing, doesnt work for me. They kiss too awkwardly and it shows onscreen. They got together so rushed as well. So weird. BeePrince couple acted more romantic than them.

Same goes for PhruekManow couple. My Lovesick heart jumped for joy when Sammy finally got an onscreen partner who will love her and not just have her for comedic effect. However, I feel no connection to the couple they acted in.

By the time of episode 9, I am already watching the series with a deadpan face. The story writing really destroyed my broccoli heart.


However,

BounPrem's acting are chef's kiss. I really cried in their crying scenes even though I can't relate much to their issues. Boun is also very hot and I can feel his love to Team. I finished the 12 episodes because of them.

All in all, I suggest you to try and watch it. It's good, but I'm sorry my beloved BounPrem, I will not rewatch it again.

Oh the woes of having a crush.

For those who are wondering, this short series does not have a *happy ending*
However, it ended beautifully. Still got me crying while typing this.

TAGS: unsupportive parent, selfish female character, ultra supportive best friends.

To start it, I just want to say that War's acting is top notch in this series. It reminded me once again why I fell in love with him as an actor in En of Love. YinWar's acting got me back to the past where I had these high school crushes and it hit so deep that I can see myself with Best.

Another thing I love in this series is the friendships. Such supportive friends and they are not judgemental as well. No bias whatsoever. I love them. The actors also acted very natural as best of friends.

The plot flowed naturally even though it is only three episodes. It is short in a way that I want to watch more, but it is also short in a way that it gave us viewers the liberty to think up what could have happened next.

Things that I didn't like comes down to the characters only. I really don't like when BL series makes a female character selfish especially a female character that acts as if she's sweet, but is bitchy behind the back. I also don't like parents who are close-minded and controlling. I feel so bad for Dew.

Lastly, I just want to say that I don't think it was a one sided love whatsoever. This series is bittersweet and well directed. A must watch!

A walking green flag mafia?

Naaah. I mean, yes Kamol is a walking green flag. However, his character doesn't look like a mafia. He is more like a very dangerous businessman. If we put it this way, he is a bit more dangerous than Leo in Don't say no.

For those who are wondering though, this serie has a *happy ending*

Now, onto the elements,

Overall Plot:
What I liked about the plot is that there is communication between Kim and Kamol. I think, there is no issue during the entire series that is left unsolved for more than a day. They like to tackle the issue fast and maybe it's because Kamol is so transparent to Kim. Though I didn't like how Kim is a bit like a damsel in distress for getting abducted everytime, I understand that it is because he is a civilian. Also, Kamol being part of the mafia is not too established in the serie. It is more like he is a handler only of businesses. Another thing is that, Unforgotten Night is very funny to me without being comedic. It's like they did the most serious parts funnily? Without being to.

NC Scenes:
They kiss like goldfishes. Their NC scenes are too vanilla. I was expecting a more steamy-like scenes such as kiss marks, etc. because it is advertised in that way. However, in the series, it is more like they kiss and then the next moment they're done. It is heavily censored? Honestly, The Lop threesome is hotter than the main couple. Also, as it is advertised as rough, bdsm kind of story I was really expecting more. But other than the occasional chaining up and the first episode's candle thingy, nothing happened anymore. Honestly, this part is what kind of spoiled my expectations.

Characters:
Okay. Unpopular opinion: Kamol is scarier than Kinn in KinnPorsche. One thing I liked about this serie is how scary Kamol is. He really has that boss kind demeanor amidst that cutesy face. Also his soft? voice sound a lot like Zee in cutiepie. Kim on the other hand is a baby. One of the cutest baby I have ever seen. He is also one of the reasons I keep watching. I love him as Kim and I love how he has a business of his own, how his character is so stupidly kind, and how he can be so sassy at times. A complete contrast to Kamol who is only kind to him and him only. Also, I liked the of languages here, even though Kamol's korean is a bit funny.

Comparison to KinnPorsche?
First of all, a lot of people are not liking this series because they are comparing it to KinnPorsche. However, this is not the kind of series you should watch if you've just finished KinnPorsche because you'll be completely biased. I watched a couple other series more after KinnPorsche before watching this so I suggest you do the same. But if you are wondering, here are some of the differences I have noticed that might make you watch this or not:

- Kamol is more like Korn (Kinn's dad) based on his temperament and how scary he is. Kinn is more like a chaebol for me. But is cooler than Kamol when it comes to fight scenes. Kamol is more like the ordering-boss-cool type kind of character.
- Unforgotten night seems more like a family (close-knit) to me than KinnPorsche, which more like a family of mafia. In Kamol's case, subordinates can make suggestions, and speak up their mind. Also, Kamol tends to rely on his subordinates a lot (trust). In comparison, KinnPorsche has a clear distinction of subordinates and the bosses.
- Kamol is open, proud and doesn't care about anything but Kim. If Kinn and Porsche had to hide their love even though it is so obvious, Kamol on the other hand doesn't care to hide at all. He wants to kiss, hug, and flirt anywhere he wants even in front of his subordinates. Kim is always his priority and I love him for it.
- And yes, the NC scenes are much better at KinnPorsche than this one. There, it is more like lustful love, while at Unforgotten Night, it is more like I-love-you-so-I'll-take-care-of-you kind of vibe. Also, Kamol is so possessive of Kim.
- Lastly, the plot is completely different than KinnPorsche. This serie focuses more on the romance.


Overall, Unforgotten Night is a good watch. Very memorable, but I don't think it is a type that you will rewatch again and again. I suggest readers to watch it. I hope that if they ever make a season 2, there'll be improvement on the love scenes if they still tend to focus on the romance.

We got a walking green flag over here.

For those who are wondering, this serie has a *happy ending* for both couples?

A question mark because it seems there is conflict in the making in the second couple and I thought they will elaborate on that. However, at the next scene, they already reconciled. Which confused me a lot. I think it is a supposed plan for a second couple, but only made it short in order to focus more on the main couple.

Now, back to the title.
Wu Zheng is one of the most green flag top I have ever seen on BL series. Add to that that his love interest Shu Yi has DID, it can be seen all throughout the short series how attentive and sweet he is to Shu Yi even though he himself is, at the time, finding himself and his sexuality.

Because of that, I give this series a high score.

Also, the series maybe short but it is successful in incorporating elements of a good film in just 4 episodes. The amount of love scenes, the plot, the acting are all there.

Consequently, Shu Yi's actor is very great. You can see in his facial expressions the shift of personality with or without the glasses.

All in all, this short series is a great watch! I deeply recommend this show!

No words can describe how beautiful this fantasy BL is.

For those who are wondering, this serie is a *happy ending*

The cinematography, the coloring, the camera angles, the scenes, the setting, the actors, everything is beautiful down to the writing. It may seem confusing at first when the plot is read or heard from another source, but I tell you, when you watch it, everything flows so perfectly.

This series also had my most favorite episode 11 ever. No more episode 11 curse. This series' episode 11 is so nicely written and the acting of the actors are so heart-wrenching, I can feel that I am in their shoes. I cried a lot.

Some little points that I think lacks is the kissing scenes. Yes it is long, but most of the time their hands are hanging in their sides especially talay's. It is beautiful in the video, but I cannot seem to feel the love in those kisses. They are just plain kisses. Though when they do not kiss, I can see better acting. I can then feel the longing and the love. I hope the actors grow more on that part.

Overall, I love love love this series. Their cinematography is almost like ITSAY, and the writing has the beauty of Theory of Love. Such a great author! Also, there are no cringey words, cliche tropes, and a second couple that overshadows the main couple. So I definitely recommend you to watch this!

Whipped man from the first episode

In case you are wondering, it is a *happy ending*


I loved that Seo hoon is so honest about his feelings from episode 1. I don't see any red flags from him either. And here comes Jiwoo. I think for the most part, Jiwoo have said a lot of horrible things to Seo hoon, and still, Seo hoon runs to him like the honest boy he is. I really don't like when someone denies your feelings and add a bunch more hurtful words.

I just hope that season 2 can show a magnificent change to Jiwoo, really. But I guess, based on season 2 reviews, he is still that hard-to-get mean guy. So I probably wont watch it until season 1 vibes wear off on me. I think that the growth I am looking for both of them in season 2 will not be quenched.


Still, I like that, however tsundere Jiwoo may be, he kept in mind Seo hoon before making any of his decision. Both of them are really cute, visuals-wise and among all of actors, acting-wise, I love Pil Hyun the most!

If you wanted to watch some basic fluff, I really recommend this one!

*I watched on WeTV. Season 1 and the movie compilation is available there*

You'll wish you weren't single

*happy ending for both couples*
*supportive parents on both sides*

There's a lot to love and little to hate in this series. One of it is the reason I would not rewatch it as much as the other series because of the second-hand embarrassment. (edit: I stand corrected. I just rewatched it again and it did not disappoint. I noticed more details after rewatching it. And I think I will keep rewatching this.) When I watched this, there is no moment that I didn't scream, giggle or hit a pillow. I dont think it will have the same kind of effect on me when I rewatch it again. (edit: <-- the second hand embarrassment is more little when rewatching it, but the giggles and the butterflies that I felt are the same or even more because I noticed more details upon rewatching)

Now onto the things I love:
- first the friendships in this series is top tier. The support, the love, the encouragement is sooo top tier! They even cry for each other.
- the actors are very good. Not only are they cute and handsome. Especially Billy ❤️ but their superb acting makes you feel like you are a third party in their relationship. The actors' intimate scenes will not make you feel even a slight feeling of awkwardness that some male bl actors have. It feeels sooo real and sweet. (edit: upon getting to know more of the actors and rewatching it, I realized that seng (toh) is so versatile in his acting. He is a very good actor. Billy as well. Both of them. The casting is really on point and I love it. Also, BillySeng have the greatest chemistry on and off screen!)

I suggest you watch this series because it gets better every episode. Very comedic and sweet!

Go and watch because of DueanMeen

*happy ending for both couples*
*supportive parent on one side*

After watching, I realized I love DueanMeen more than MorkPi. I watched this series after SCOY so Mork's red flags are sooo apparent. I didnt like episode 11, especially episode 12. Mork does not stand up for Pi and he keeps pushing his feelings to Pi even though Pi is still not ready.

The shippers are also intrusive, and arrogant. I felt really bad for Pi in this whole series.

With regards to what I love:
Pi's actor is really really handsome. His voiceovers are so animated and expressive as well as his expressions. Duean is a very cute tsundere top and Meen is sooo cute. He also sang the beautiful ost of this series. Sooo talented!
