The settings were beautiful, the music was so creative and beautiful. There were strong female leads, and trans women representation in the main cast. Although the show ends semi-happily, there’s a part in me that wishes that some characters got better treatment. But that’s what made the show more mysterious. They wanted us to wonder about if characters are okay, or how life would be different for them if they hadn’t done this or that. This show is by far my favorite show produced by GMMTV and i’ve seen a ton of their shows. This one was different, it stuck out differently, and has made me fall in love with so many unlikely plots and settings and characters and the lives withheld in these characters. It’s also definitely re-watch worthy.
A Frozen Flower NOPE
Love triangle and tragedy
Active BoysSo this show is really interesting. It’s the story of a school, and within this school there are 2 teams, each containing about 5 or 6 Boys. The first team we have is the music club. They’re a group of boys who just really like sitting in their schools music room and singing and playing the guitar and they’re just really pure. The second team is the basketball club, and as you’ve guessed it, they all spend their free time playing basketball. (no subs 9 or 11)

Hirofumi and Shinji are colleagues at the same advertising agency. Hirofumi works in IT, and Shinji is on the company's elite fast track. The two start off completely on the wrong feet, but as time passes they find themselves falling for each other.
.
But it was so delicately put in it's story and the actors were superb. I had watched the first one and that was good but since then I think I have matured more to appreciate this kind of stories. As I said, the actors did a great job. Actually all kinds of first-love experience's makes me happy to watch. And I was happy to see that they brought back one of the mains from the first movie. I can highly recommend this movie to someone with an open mind cause this made me so calm and moved by the sweet story. Good job scriptwriters and I salute to the ountstanding actors.

Attraction (mehhh)
Attraction is a fantasy web movie. It talks about the meeting between 2 straight boys from different social circles, and their story from a fantasy point of view. The story is pieced together with a few short chapters of stories.
.
Uh... This movie is a manga in movie form. It's quite bizarre. The movie even has scenes in it that present it as manga. Basically it's about a wormhole that keeps transporting various things into this guy's house, including a police officer from Taiwan; also has a missing persons mystery. It is campy in some spots, kinda humorous.

Bad Romance (2016) hmmm could only find BL cut
Thai drama about a girl who believes the boy who fell in love with her is gay and is trying to pursue her gay male friend. Big cast with lots of relationships.
.
I have watched over 30 BL dramas/Lakorns so far and this show is the worst. I don't know what the rating of the show was, but it had to be for a general audience. For a show about romance, there was no physical affection at all - the closest you got was drunken mistakes and almost-sexual assaults. The main character Yihwa is not an independent woman, but a prude, who refuses the advances of others, even when she likes them. Cho goes from being nice to acting like he is going to rape Yihwa over and over. Korn and Knock are the most poorly written gay couple of any series outside of What the Duck!
Bangkok G Story (2017)
Humorous series telling the sexual adventures and misadventures of three gay friends in Bangkok, including "G" who lands straight from the province.
.
This drama has a bit too much cheating for me. But the friendship between G and T had me staying. It remained constant throughout all the other men. In the end loyalty and honesty brought the two best friends together. If you can make it past episode 16 it’s worth it. It ended up being a sweet story! The acting so-so, but the men were hot and nice eye candy, so that made up for it. Plus G’s idealistic but hopeful view of finding love inspired me in this jaded world. You never know where you’re going to find it!
Bang Rak Soi

Because of You
Growing up in a large, wealthy family, the three half brothers never wanted anything. The trio was incredibly close, their familial bonds undeniably strong. Whatever the brothers faced, they always faced together. But as they grew older, they began to realize that some things they just couldn’t share, especially when it came to matters of the heart. Cheng, Dao, and Ping have all felt the overwhelming tide of emotions that comes with love.
.
The story had a lot of potential. Even in 150 minutes, it could have been a really wholesome movie, but it lacked depth and character development. They should have stuck to one couple rather than trying to cram three love stories into one. Characters and storylines fell flat.
.
While the acting is below my expectations, it was able to sustain my interest for the sheer pleasure of their antics. It could have been a great show except that there is lack of character development and the usual inclusion of the annoying female (bitchy) character - a common occurence in Taiwanese and Chinese BL. There are 10 episodes and recent reports indicate that a second season maybe announced soon.
Being Me (2018)
High school students, Jae Nam and Seo Hyun, are happy just to be together. However, after Min Hee's live internet broadcast, Seo Hyun is looking for Jae Nam, who is nowhere to be found.
.
The story was a good one that ran the gamut: sweet, sappy, sexy shower scene, sad in parts, and ended happily. Now that I know how it ended, I'm going to have see it again and watch for all of the little things along the way. I really liked the friendship displayed as it was already a part of the story instead of wasting a ton of time showing how they met.

Their friend, Mike, suggests that they fake being gay on the internet for money. As they start to gain popularity online, Toey starts to doubt if he really wants to do this.
.
I think the plot is quite common. We always have this friend who will support us in what they we like to do and this movie shows the benefit of having such friend. Regarding the fake boyfriend thing I think that is quite common in Thailand or should I say that kind of topic has already been featured in some movies an series out there. The ending is quite unclear for me though. Did they end up still being good friend or did they started to lie each other in a different level. If you want to think with me regarding how the movie ends well you can watch it. :-)

OMG This was SO FUNNY! It had me rolling! You gotta see this. True, it's super short, all the episodes are 5-7 minutes, but it's great. Very fun to watch. And it just keeps getting funnier! Also has some great tender moments.

Can Jinho love before he turns 30?
.
This is a fantastic and funny buddy comedy. Some parts were downright hilarious. There's also a big sex scene in it, no doubt the reason why it's rated MATURE, though there's no frontal nudity. I liked that it had a very realistic ending and yet was still a happy one.
