I have to admit I have some mixed feelings after finishing this one.

Was it a bit dramatic? Yes. Was there angst? Yes. Passion and romance? Absolutely.There were definitely parts I enjoyed, and I liked the ending, but literallyanything that is not the main couple, I couldn't have given any less of a fuck about. Like I'm being so honest, anything that didn't directly involve Tongrak and Mahasamut as a couple, I didn't care about.The characters were cute, Tongrak was tsunderet. I preferred Mahasamut, I adored him, honestly. He is just so adorable.

Look, this story is cute, annoyingand sexy. It's straightforward and low-stakes. As with MAME's previous show, it doesn't necessarily do anything remarkable or revolutionary, but there's nothing wrong with that.

Liked it.. did not love it.

It was a meet-cute story that started out strong but became a little predictable.

I needed something fluffy, and this kind of worked. The characters are nice, some moments are cute and fun, and I liked everything related to food and JJ&Methas.

As a romance, this didn't really work for me. The relationship between Oab and Plawan is very rushed and feels lukewarm, all sweetness, passionate and no depth. The drama near the end is a bit .... ugh. I mean, I get it. It's important. But it felt so predictable.

Loved the secondary characters.
One man so used to being alone and another whose chosen to to heal and help. And, now they might just find out they're exactly what one another needs. JJ truly is such an adorable and amazing character.
I liked how he really saw Methas. He saw past the facade and saw a man who wanted to prove and who is afraid. Love him so much together with Methas. OK... I know I'm biased.

It was easy, it was fun, it was very sexy. So, while this story and I were not really a match, I can totally get why people dive into it.

This drama didn't start out terribly.

I will be very briefI.
I feel so conflicted about The Princess Royal. It was like I was playing out my own version of the love/hate game with the series while watching it.
Plot: this did not go where I thought it would! This drama is the absolutely quintessential enemies-to-lovers trope ! With polar opposite protagonists,none tension, and a mix of political and social games.This is a romance.It's no spoiler that things DO change between them. Love and hate are a fine line, after all.
It started off pretty interesting, but I don't know ... Pacing could've been optimized.
Characters: smart, annoying, arrogant, condescending and more. And I like them for it, because they're people.Not all, but most.
I am leaning toward a higher score because for all the issues I had with the drama at times, it was engaging and cute.

Pleasant low angst office romance.

Hehhh. I'm torn now. I eyerolled so much while watching this series that I may have permanently damaged at least some of my cranial nerves. And yet I watched it in one sitting, annoyingly(Ba-Mhee&Tae&Judy), romantic (Ryan&Jane) and inexplicably entertained. Go figure.
I liked Ryan and Jane a lot. The way their relationship develops is exactly what I love in stories like this one. They are incredibly sweet and tender with each other. The moments between them were my favourite part of the story. Jane was my favorite. God I loved him! He is a sweet mix of confident and vulnerable.
The love triangle - no, no, no
It was meant to be intense and heart-wrenching, but I felt nothing other than pure annoyance. I wanted Ba-Mhee to just shut up.
There was some very good stuff, but there was some stuff that wasn’t for me that detracted from my enjoyment.
Overall sweet, light and funny.

Phenomenal first season, then it was all downhill from there.

The first season was absolutely incredible, compelling and interesting. Season two was passable at best.And then the wheels come off. Season three was downright awful…ОК… I am too emotional. Season three is shaky and predictable. It actually kind of felt like a betrayal - it’s as if the show-runners crafted this great compelling show that captured me attention and suddenly and left me with a series that they clearly had no idea what to do with.

Let me start with the positives.
*The characters were very all unique and I especially liked Cha Hyeon Su and Seo I Su.
*This story had a very "layered" feel for me--the horror that never really goes away, it's always just around the corner.
*I loved the way the you had me questioning my own moral perspective. I mean, is it really so bad if the guy being hurt is a jerk?! I'm asking for a friend...
Unfortunately this is where the cons start to come one.
*The neohuman were slightly disappointing. I wish we got more story as to what was happening. It doesn’t need to be elaborate but they were a tad one dimensional to the story.
*Theres so much time spent hopping from one setting to the other that it all feels very repetitive.
* For me, the worst creative choice was the seemingly endless and painfully cliched story line of Pyeon Sang Uk. All the cliches were there and were milked for everything they were worth. It was agony.
*A bunch of random encounters with inexplicable things, starring the heroes so flat and interchangeable that you won't remember who is who, or, honestly, give a damn.
*Just running around in circles, repeating scenes all throughout, and without much of a clear timeline.

No.Just no.

Shelved as did-not-finish.

I’m sorry. But I just can’t with this. I can’t. I can’t deal.

If I had a coin for every time I wanted to DNF this series I'd have a thousand coins in my jar! Needless to say I didn't like it at all.
I really cannot relate. It didn't grab me like I expected.

What I liked:
It' was a good concept. The darklyaspect. The first episode was well done, I was hooked and I was intrigued. The characters were fun + the overall vibe was mystery.

However there were some things that just did not work out.
The story overall was very slow, boring and confusing.
Story started to lose itself in the first half everything got so messy and the thing just lost their charm which overall dulled my experience.
The characters and their back and forth with the settings proved to be more of an hindrance. I tried to like Khen and Mas but all the attachment that I felt to them and the story vanished into thin air.

Overall, it may work for some of you but it definitely was not for me.

It’s not cute love.

8.5 stars rounded up, the only reasons this isn't a solid 10 stars is there are a lot of little things that bothered me in of plot and relationship dynamics , but the rest of the series was lovely so it's ok.

I honestly don’t want to share too much about this series before you look it — it’s best enjoyed knowing as little about it as possible. However, what I will say is the pacing is good, the jumpy timeline builds tension and has you at the edge of your seat, and that ending…Bitter and sweet. How you feel about it may determine your final rating too.
But yeah, apart from that...
It was a unique story but there was a missed opportunity to really make this an the best story, which somehow makes the flaws worse since I get frustrated seeing wasted opportunities.

I found myself smiling constantly throughout this series.

Fluff, fluff, and more fluff, this story is a perfect, sweet and charming.

I’m absolutely obsessed with this cute bl drama following Yoryak and Wandee as them tries to join the a real boyfriend club. The whole premise ( a fake relationship) is, of course, very theatrical but it’s such an entertaining that I don’t mind at all. This isn’t something to be taken too seriously but still has impactful moments all throughout. This balance of silly second hand embarrassment moments and serious topicswas so well done. When finishing this I was left with a warm feeling in my heart. Yoryak and Wandee ’s romance dynamic is super fun and had so many moments that had me giggling and I cry.The characters were all very like different. They have realistic flaws and worries, which makes the story and character dynamics so much more interesting, fun and touching. Despite each character’s flaws, they don’t make very stupid mistakes like we’re used to seeing in bl serials. Their actions stem from their own experiences, doubts and desires.

I needed something light and fluffy and this kind of worked.

I didn’t expect to love it so much, mostly because I didn’t have any expectations going in.

Debating if I should give it 9 stars or 8,5!
To be honest. I wanted to give a 8,5. But the story was evolving a little too slowly for my liking but they were so cute to have my heart melted.

It was a cute, easy and fluffy. I have to admit there was times I was giggling, all red, swinging my feet stupidly while watching.The only flaw (a personal flaw) was that the events happening slowly and yet it didn't stop me from enjoying this series.

I still cannot not talk about Phum - Peem's chemistry, because it was so beautifully captured that I felt their connection - their love. What starts off as a casual attraction slowly builds up into something so much more meaningful and desirable to both of them, in ways they could never have anticipated.
Q - Toey
Their banter was fresh and amusing and dare I say it, charming - their tender scenes just as emotional. It was almost poetic the way the Director wrote out their feelings and thoughts.
Tan - Khaofang
The way they comforted each other when they needed it so desperately, that fierce expressive and sticky they felt about one another, the cheerful way in which they acted upon their desire and want for each other - I ate those moments up.
Chain - Pun
Whether you'll love him or hate him, Chain was definitely my favorite. That cold yet assessing and loving demeanor suited my heart so well. Pun - my precious boy - let me protect you forever.

Romance aside, I loved this bl drama for the friendships and the vibes.

It may have not been quite what I was expecting, but what it delivered was more than enough to not only appease me, but make me eager for more.

If you're looking for a light-hearted, sweet, romance that's well narrated then this one is for you.

This was really quite cute. Exactly the type of story I was looking for: light, fun and not too much drama.

Both main characters won me over with their likability and realistic portrayal. Moo and Kang were great characters and it was amazing getting to see their journey, both as individuals and a couple.
Payos and Potae relationship was so emotionally explored. All their fears and insecurities coming to life and testing their feelings.
The twists? So well done. They gave the series more depth and I really appreciated that.
The story went quick. I didn't feel like there was much time wasted on filler, though there were some spots that could have been trimmed.
If you are a fan of young adult serials or just into a great story about two people finding themselves in life, this is well worth the viewed.

Тhem continue to live ?

I cannot express my feelings so well,so I gave my ratings everything 10 because I think this movie is beyond perfections.

The story is very meaningful so I give it a 10. It taught me many lessons about life. Never give up, for that is just the place and time that the tide will turn.

I gave the Acting 10 because they portrayed their character really well.

10 because the music vibe fits perfectly with everything in this history. The music makes the drama even better.

For rewatch value, I gave it a 10. It’s not perfect. But there were moments where I was so captivated by the story that I actually forgot I was watching a movie. And that’s something you really don’t come across very often.

Hate it break it to you, but it’s been boring since the start.

There is no reason for this show to exist, no substance of worth, or story that is trying to be told. It’s just there for the sake of being there.
While the first episode was pretty good episodes has evolved to the typical episodes of the week series where they have a random adventure, only to be followed by another random adventure the next week. Most series need a goal the characters want to reach or overcome. If there is no goal, the series becomes pretty aimless, pointless and boring. But after 10 episodes them just trying to be annoying, mean and ignorant - is just tiresome.
I'm still wondering when Liu fell so in love with Guy when they barely spent time together. She was always with Saint.
Liu and Guy always fail to understand each other. Did I want to knock some sense into both of them? Absolutely. She is naive and stupid and he is ... he is cute. Guy is quite a wilful and determined character desperate to find any semblance of love history.
And I really did not like Faye as a person at all but she makes for an incredibly compelling character. She was the beacon of everything that was wrong and bad.
I just adore Saint. He's so freaking kind and in solicitous and I loved every minute of it.
Sometimes I wish I had a friend like Ann.

It’s a boring ride to be sure.

This ended up being an amazing during love month.
The romance arc is great. Cute and fun.
I loved just about everything about it. I'm not even going to pretend that my favorite element wasn't Pei Zhao, cause it was! I loved his self-deprecating, way of looking at the world, very down to earth and resourceful.Pei Zhao is an awesome hero, and Su Ci is an equally awesome heroine. She is gutsy, intelligent, and sweet. She never gave me the urge to ignore her and focus on the hero because I didn't like her.
My one complaint was detective aspect. Riddles and mystery. No, no and no. They were not fully developed and were boring.
That being said, I was invested in what happened between Pei Zhao and Su Ci.
I'm glad I watched this series.

I saw this series and the poster immediately caught my attention. I like Formula 1 and MotoGP, but something in me said that I wouldn't like this as much as I like the poster. Sadly, I was right.
In this case I don't think the series is bad or anything like that, it just failed to grip me and I'm not theright viewer for it. I'm sure someone else would find it much more interesting. But yeah, I was just bored.
It started off pretty interesting, but I don't know, it could've been the writing styl, but it didn't keep my attention as it went on.
Everything goes to fast with no explanation for the characters motivations or why they’re doing what they’re doing. Too many characters and nonsensical plot, which plods along then goes nowhere.
I am going to miss Alan and Jeff ?
But will I give it another try? I'm not sure.
Either way, if you look this go right ahead, I hope you'll be the viewer who connects with this series on every level.

That was amazingly beautiful and honest and I’ll be thinking about this drama for a long time to come.
There are so many things to love about this series, but I especially adored how real every moment felt: the politics,love, friendships and strict parents; hope and happiness.
Overall, the visuals in this story were really well done, the story was powerful, the main characters was lovable and tragic, and the side characters were interesting enough to each have their own part. Most importantly however there was towards the last of the drama where I literally jumped up and said, "What" outloud, which is always a sign of an exciting twist.
I absolutely adore this series and I cannot wait for more!
