BL Review: Roop Thong (Golden)

Notes:
This is a semi-BL series. The main storyline is about two brothers, Moo returns home after 20 years and Seua is trying to figure out if he (Seua) is gay or straight out that he is gay. The characters in this story are very manipulative and emotionally and at times physically toxic to each other. You will only be able to find the first episode of this series with english subtitles from the GMM Youtube channel. It is a great story so if you are really interested you can find the cut BL only scenes at https://gcinee.com/golden-rupthong/ If you live in the U.S. you will need a VPN to view the episodes on GCINEE. Even with the cut version, I could clearly understand the story.

I loved the chemistry between Seua and Rob. I really wish they would play in another BL together. I loved the way Moo stood beside his family NO MATTER how much pain it caused him. I hated Seua’s girlfriend Khao during most of the series but near the end she really showed Seua the most love and support possible.

Dislikes:
The mother was EVIL. I hated the way Seua and Rob manipulated each other. I hated how Khao was so obsessed with Seua that she didn’t want to see him happy without her. I hated the way the mother tried to control EVERYONE. I also disliked the physical abuse between Khao and Rob. I think Khao provoked Rob a lot but near the end of the series Rob was making crazy, obsessed decisions that could have been deadly for Khao.


BL Review: Lovesick

Notes:
When I first read all the reviews about this series, I was excited to watch it. The storyline seemed interesting enough. A fake relationship started between Phun and Noh and becomes a wonderful, painful, and sweet romance. Overall, I enjoyed watching this series but honestly by episode 9, I didn’t care if Phun and Noh stayed together anymore or not. Both boys hid their true feelings for one another and once they decided to act on those feelings, they were unfaithful to the women who loved them. Not only that, but they became unfaithful to each other. Then there were all the side couples who never really got a chance to develop their stories and some of the sub plots were completely unnecessary to the series at all. I honestly started to fast forward through some of the side scenes just to see what was going to happen with Phun and Noh.

Where I Watched: Youtube but it is on Netflix now
Storyline: Loved it at times but other times this series was exhausting. Loved the second season a lot more.
Main Couple Chemistry: Felt more like they were best friends than a couple
Side Couple Chemistry: Same as the main couple
Subplots: Rushed and most were very under developed
Kisses: Mild
Love Scenes: Not shown but suggested
Ending: Happy
Recommend It: Yes

Likes:
The fluffy scenes where Phun and Noh’s feelings grew for one another. Loved Pang and Yuri. I felt like both these characters gave a lot of love and support to the leads.

Dislikes:
The underdeveloped sub plots. The toxic behavior of Jeed.


BL Review: Until We Meet Again

Notes:
I have seen a lot of reviews complaining about the amount of crying in this series. But, you have to remember that this story is based on two teens taking their own lives so of course there is going to be a lot of emotions from everyone that knew the two boys. You can’t expect a lot of fluff when dealing with this topic.

Where I Watched: Youtube
Storyline: Loved it
Main Couple Chemistry: Felt more like they were best friends than a couple
Side Couple Chemistry: Win-Team had amazing chemistry
Subplots: Good

Love Scenes: Mild
Ending: Happy

Likes:
The cast and storyline were great.

Dislikes:
The way Team spoke about his friends weight. The non-stop cooking dialog. The way Pharm rejected Dean in the kitchen. The ending was to fast paced.
