Bad Buddy might have a rather cliche plot, but it was executed very well, from the acting to the aesthetic shots. I usually don't mind cliche plotlines, as long as it is done well, and this show is a good example of that. I like how they also diverted from usual plotlines and actually showcased a healthy relationship with good communication and understanding of their partners. I think that this is quite rare to see in any genre of drama, where there are forced kisses or pulling of their partners that is meant to be seen as a romantic gesture. So I'm glad that Bad Buddy really showed all signs of a healthy relationship.

First of all, the acting was really good, from the entire cast, not just the leads. Of course Nanon and Ohm delivered, they made me laugh and cry with their natural acting and great chemistry. But the rest of the cast delivered as well, most notably Jimmy. Though his character was kind of a douche, Jimmy's acting was great and I was genuinely pissed off at him for like a week until the next episode came out. But yes, the acting is great in this show, not just amongst BL dramas, but in general. The actors really immersed into their roles and delivered.

I really liked the music, especially Just Friend, but I'm really strict with music so I gave it an 8. But still really nice songs in general.

In conclusion, Bad Buddy has a plot that many of us have watched before, but it pushes the boundaries in terms of its portrayal of a healthy relationship and addressing issues with certain problematic cliches and storylines. If you are watching it, get ready to go on an emotional rollercoaster. The good thing is that with the entire series out now, you don't have to cry an entire week before the next episode makes you feel better.
