“Love in Translation” Series Review (Ep.3 to 8)

Leave a comment

“Love in Translation” is one of those BL dramas that I would definitely recommend to everyone. Am I saying this because it is a big production series? No. I will recommend it because I genuinely liked what the show was about. Only 10% of the BL shows released every year have a decent storyline that actually teaches us something valuable instead of just normal college life love stories and this is one of the dramas. The romantic aspect of the drama was nice, well-paced and not very cringeworthy (to be honest). It gave me a slice-of-life feeling, with the overall drama and romance developed on perfect pace in my point of view.

“Crazy Handsome Rich” Series Review (Ep.3 to 6)

Leave a comment

This was a tough series to watch due to the dreadful dubbing, but I held out and was pleasantly surprised with how cute and funny it was. The actors are amazing, it’s just that they were dealt with a bad scripts and direction. Frank Thanatsaran looked awful with the fake wig. With this kind of talent on hands, I was disappointed in the overall ambience of the show.

“Be Mine SuperStar” Series Review (Ep.1 to 12)

If you spend more than a nanosecond of time analyzing this series, you will find it so logically implausible with the story so full of holes that literally makes no sense, it will make your head spin. But if you watch it merely for pure entertainment value and put yourself on the couch with ‘Grandma’ and watch it as a Soap Opera, you will love it. I loved it, so I guess I sat next to Grandma. (You will get the reference if you watch the series. I do wish she had a bigger role. She was so entertaining). In general, there are two main characters, two more or less minor characters, and a slew of supporting characters, one of whom really steals the series, while others should have been written out of the series or actually never written in.

“Be My Favorite” Series Review (Ep.1 to 12)

2 Comments

This story is one of the most remarkable BLs in redefining the concept of what love is or at lease perceived, especially how we see it between men. It re-conceptualizes its beauty, enhances its endurance, redefines intimacy, and solidifies the virtue of a relationship. And it does this all through the magic of fantasy. This narration broke down all the traditional stereotypical Thai BL stories and told a saga so deeply personal and profoundly moving that you became a part of its journey.

“Crazy Handsome Rich” First Impressions (Ep.1 & 2)

Leave a comment

“Crazy Handsome Rich” is a series like no other. First off, this was supposed to be a dubbed series so the voices are a bit off and it makes for an unpleasant experience. As such, the dubbing sound effects and background score during scenes are also hindered. Despite these flaws, the show is set in a more mature atmosphere which is very refreshing.

“Love in Translation” First Impressions (Ep.1 & 2)

Leave a comment

Love in Translation is a romantic love story between two main characters whose life choices and goals are totally different. It can be said that it is a love story with a pinch of inspiring moments; I added pinch because only two episodes have been released yet and from what I gathered; it seems that the story will have a connection on a deeper level on different aspects than just being a simple love story. Our first main character Yang (Daou Pittaya) wants to run a successful buisness and is in search of a thai buisness partner to broaden his business while on the other hand our second main character Phamjai (Offroad Kantapon) is the hardcore fan of a chinese influencer Tammy (Jam Charuttha) and wants to pursue her. One thing leads to another and we know that in life things never occur in a simple way. So, sparks starts flying between our main leads as they get to know each other and start spending time together.
