“Lost to You” Series Review (Ep.3 to 12)
When this Singaporean BL dropped out of nowhere without much fanfare, I wasn’t exactly inspired to play catchup. But the actors looked good, and the story seemed inspiring. So, I hit the play button and was pleasantly surprised. The storyline focuses on a apocalyptic couple, both of them have a disastrous fate. One is dying from a terminal illness while the other seems cursed beyond measure. Their romance seems ill-fated from the onset and yet as they fall in love, they form a strong bond which no one could break. The main couple have significant chemistry, a beautiful storyline and even better camaraderie. Sadly, the secondary couple fall short in the chemistry department, but their good looks make up for that misnomer. There might be many who were unsatisfied with the rushed ending, so we will talk about everything in detail later!!

“Unexpectedly Naughty Fukami” Series Review (Ep.1 to 10)
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.

“Feel What You Feel” Series Review (Ep.3 to 8)
“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

“Crazy Love, Moo-Moo!” Series Review (Ep.3 to 10)
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!!
