“Jack & Jill” Series Review (Ep.1 to 8)
This is a surprisingly good series. A bit too short, however. It does not pretend to be anything than what you see. This is no masterpiece, but it gets to a story quickly with some excellent dialogues and exchanges. The acting, sorry to say, is a bit amateurish in parts and has no real depth in the beginning. But towards the end, the two main protagonists become believable and effective.

“Hello Stranger” Series Review (Ep.1 to 8)
Tender and beautiful; this series is superb! I loved it. One of the finest acting, BL series, I have seen. It is just joyous, funny, poignant, and intensely real.
“Tien Bromance” Series Review (Ep.1 to 10)
Unique is not quite the right word to describe this series, including its title. Flippant comes to mind, but still alluring.
“Hanh Phuc Xa Bay/ Happiness Flies Far Away” Series Review (Ep.1 to 8)
This is a BL series that defies description. To say that it is phenomenal would be an understatement.

“Until We Meet Again” Series Review (Ep. 1 to 17)
PERFECTION! I do not know how to describe this series without using superlatives that might not adequately describe this reincarnation saga.
