Short. Fun. And maybe a little endearing.
Adapted from the manga Yatara Yarashii Fukami-kun by Matsumoto, Unexpectedly Naughty Fukami stars Kashio Atsuki as Kaji Akihiro and Nanox as Fukami Yu. What begins as a casual arrangement between two coworkers quickly becomes more complicated when Kaji, a successful salesman who initially judges Fukami as dull and unremarkable, discovers there’s much more to his colleague than he expected. As the two bond over their views on love and relationships, what starts as something physical slowly develops into something much deeper.

“Love is friendship that has caught fire. It is quiet understanding, mutual confidence, sharing and forgiving. It is loyalty through good and bad times. It settles for less than perfection and makes allowances for human weaknesses.”―Ann Landers

After watching the trailer for “Crazy Love, Moo-Moo!”, I was expecting lighthearted banter between the main leads, Boss Chaikamon & Noeul Nuttarat. This was my first time watching a show where Boss’s character relentlessly pursues Noeul’s. The flavorful romance gets eclipsed by the humorous tones at times. But when we have three hardheaded lover boys in the family, life is often colorful and quite chaotic. The motley group of siblings keeps you entertained, their far fetched attempts to win their love interest’s heart often result in hilarious situations. While Boss switches to a less domineering yet comic flair, Noeul matches his tempo as the “Damsel in Distress.” The hysteria is real, and you can’t help but feel for the men being pursued by the Tong siblings!!

“Beside the Sky” is a gentle, emotionally driven romance that succeeds not through dramatic plot twists but the quiet and subtle feel of relationship. As a story about reconnecting with someone from the past, the series explores themes of memory, longing, and emotional healing with a sincerity, that though an overused genre, still feels refreshing.
“Peach Lover” is a bold and emotional BL series that explores the thin line between fantasy and real love. The story follows a devoted fan, Po (Poom Nuttapart) who gets the chance to work closely with his idol Sasom (Ki Niwat Naknuan), a famous adult content creator. What starts as a professional arrangement slowly turns into something deeper and more complicated.
It’s nice seeing a cast of characters falling in love and finding a place to belong, even if the screen time wasn’t quite enough to pull it all off.
