My School President (2022)

This show healed my soul!! PLEASE WATCH IT FOR MORE HAPPINESS!!

Okay, this review is going to be long so you can skip it if long reviews are not your thing.

Short version of the story is I LOVE this drama. It's one of my all time favourites now and I wish I could make everyone in the world watch this show because its worth it.

*Long version* - I haven't watched a lot of BL's and the few that I have watched were mainly Korean ones. I found this one from a random reel on Instagram. I wasn't expecting anything and I was just going to forward and watch it but this show surpassed all my expectations and just changed something in me. First of all the story had all the elements I loved and some tropes that I didn't even know I loved until this show. I'm not going to elaborate much on the plot because I don't want to spoil it but it was soooo good. I went in completely blind into this drama and I think I was able to have the best experience because of that. All the actors were amazing but special shoutout to Gemini and Fourth. Their chemistry was on a whole another level and I think I'll watch any show in which they will star now because they were that good, both together as well as playing their separate characters. Next, the music throughout the show was sooooo good. Unlike some dramas I've watched before, the music was not cringey at all and all the performances were great. As someone who's obsessed with music in general, I was sooo happy to find so many cool new artists and songs.
Overall, the show was sooo good (lol I keep repeating this but I don't know how else to put it in words). the plot was light hearted but so much more than just a high school drama. There was fluff, loads of funny moments, some angst and just warmth. By the end of the show, it felt like I was attached to every character and their lives. Idk if I just watched it at the right moment in my life but this show is like a warm hug and literally healed something in me and I wish people would give it a chance and experience the same happiness watching it as I did.
I hope all the cast and crew from the show get the success and happiness they deserve after creating this masterpiece, which has brought a little more happiness to my life. If you've read till here stop immediately and start with the show already if you haven't watched it already. What are you waiting for?lol.
If your'e another fan like me I hope you enjoy the rewatch Xd!! I'll go start the show for the fifth time now. :) Peace out!! #myschoolpresident<3

MUST WATCH!!!!!

I haven’t watched a bl drama before beside in anime, and I have to say, this was so amazing! I binged it all in almost one sitting. The story was super cute and wholesome. The ending was perfect for these dorky characters. The conflicts were also all resolved really well. Nothing in this story left me wondering ‘what about *insert plot point*?’ because everything was wrapped up nicely. EXCEPT for the side couples. They were also absolutely adorable and I wished we saw them more. I was feasting on the crumbs we got of them… Please give it a watch! I know I’ll definitely be watching it again in the future!

This is just too cute to be true.. ?

I will not write anything crazy or long about this series but all I want say is that.. this is just the right amount of everything in one series. I guess just a little too much in terms of love and sweetness but you we love that 😁

This series made me fell for BL series again. Its been so long since I last watched BL series and this as my coming back BL serie? Just perfect. Zero toxicity, Zero red flags, Zero stressed in this drama tbh. Just pure love and friendship. I love this drama so much. A must watch, indeed.

Ps. if I could give 1000 for music, I would. Really.

Sweet and funny with lovely characters

Let me just start off by saying that I wasnt sure if I would actually like this series when the trailer first came out bc Im usually not a fan of high school bls. I decided to give it a try after 6 episodes were already aired and I was simply blown away!

The chemistry of Fourth and Gemini was off the charts. The storyline has been done before, yes, but it was still really nice and they made it feel fresh. Too many times we see unnecessary drama and toxic things going on between couples in bls, but this one, literally the most minimal conflict, but when there was conflict, there was COMMUNICATION. Such a wild concept for bls for the characters to actually communicate with eachother and help eachother through struggles they experience. I am also not a fan of super cringy stuff, but they pulled off all of the silly, comedic relief scenes flawlessly with very minimal second hand embarassment and most of the time had me actually laughing rather than cringing.

Overall if you like sweet, light-hearted, and silly dramas with characters that just love eachother unconditionally, def give this one a watch!

I might add more to this later, but thats it for now♡

Che coccola.

Come dice il titolo, questa serie è proprio una coccola. Tinn e Gun sono dolci e tutto sommato la storia è molto semplice, ma al contempo tratta di un insieme di temi importanti (la malattia della mamma, le difficoltà economiche, il coming out dei protagostini), però sempre con un tono di leggerezza e dolcezza, che ti permettono di gustarti al meglio la storia. Ho apprezzato parecchio che i personaggio abbiano dovuto “prendersi delle responsabilità”: quella di trovare gli strumenti (dove anche se Lion (Tinn) li indirizzavano, hanno comunque dovuto fare del loro per poi ottenerli, la responsabilità di andare bene agli esami se no non avrebbero potuto fare il concorso, insomma si sono presi le responsabilità di “diventare adulti”, che è una cosa che alla fine liceo devi fare. E poi tutte le piccole storie extra: Por che aveva difficoltà con la madre perché vuole a suonare, il boost di confidence che ha dovuto fare Yok… insomma guardare questa serie è una coccola che ti fai: ritrovi i tuoi amici delle superiore, le grandi cotte (e quelle più piccole), ritrovi i momenti in cui ti sei sentito adulto per le prime volte e quelli in cui vorresti tornare ad essere un bambino. E le delusione, grandi come perdere il concorso o piccole, però il senso è che (e non credo che io stia citando Thua) “con le persone giuste è tutto più semplice”.
Si, ho pianto mentre scrivevo questa recensione

Such a fluffy BL

Feb. 24, 2023

OMG ANOTHER DRAMA I FINISHED during my one week long break from school.

My School President is such a fluffly bl that contains very generic and cliché troupes. However, what separates them from other show is how they execute everything in such a good manner. I feel like they really put forth effort and incorporate the cliche in a way where it isn't as cringey as Thailand's recent BL releases.

My School President is definitely one of the best BLs in my opinion that has been released for the first quarter of 2023. Tinn and Gunn's relation is an epitome of what a healthy relationship looks like. I love how they do not tolerate miscommunication and try to fixes any problems that arises. Furthermore, they are so mature for their age and I can't say that to other BLs. Like full on shade to those shows I dropped but I can't stand someone being so fking immature with no character development.

Also both main leads are such green flags. I am wishing for what they have cause it honestly makes me so jealous.

ALL IN ALL WATCH MY SCHOOL PRESIDENT RIGHT NOW IF YOU HAVEN'T ALREADY

Set the right expectations to enjoy an overload of Cuteness (maybe a small dose of cringe)

Subjective Gut Rating - 8.25

For someone like me who is a little older (not necessarily wiser LOL), I need to be in a certain mood to watch “My School President”. It’s pretty obvious the target audience is a lot younger than me, but that doesn’t mean I can’t enjoy it. I just need to know what to expect and be in the right mood.

Current situation: (when all the ducks are in a row for success):
* I need something light and easy to watch
* I want something fluffy and a lot of romance
* I know this is a high school drama targeting a younger audience
* I expect a lot of comedy and I am OK with Thai comedy - similar to understanding Japanese unique humor to watch dramas adapted from manga and anime
* I expect to see a lot of product placements


Now that the stage is set for me, I can sit back, enjoy and appreciate this highly rated teen drama.


What I Like:
1. Gun aka Fourth - He is so adorable and he knows it. I want to pinch his cheeks and give him a big hug. He’s the star of the show. He made me want to check out “Moonlight Chicken”.
2. Fourth is also the best actor in the whole series among the young kids.
3. Gun and Tinn have good chemistry and are cute together.
4. I like how Tinn supported Gun throughout the drama, despite wanting to be in a relationship right away. He held back, and did what’s best for Gun. I am a sucker for someone who does a lot behind the scenes for their loved one.
5. What a rare sight to have supportive parents. The two mothers love and support their son differently but always have their best interest at heart. Tinn’s dad is hilarious and is an unknowing (or knowing) wingman. I wanted more of him.
6. I love the quiet conversations that Gun and Tinn have throughout the dramas. These moments are so intimate and bring them closer to each other. They seem so mature when some of the more serious topics are shared during these moments.
7. I like most of the funny and supposedly seductive moments (80% of the time).
8. Tiwson is the best wingman out there.


What I have Mixed Feelings:
1. Aside from Gun/Fourth, I find all the other young actors acting to be below average to average.
2. The songs are a mixed bag - there are a few that I really like but a few don’t seem to be catchy enough for me. Best voices to me - Gunn’s mother and Por/Ford. I do appreciate the actors singing the songs themselves.
3. Yak (music club senior) is annoying and has too much screen time for my taste.
4. I guess the music club no boyfriend rule only means no openly announcing to everyone, but secretly dating is ok?
5. Although I appreciate the lack of homophobia among students, it’s still sad that we couldn’t get away from adults having this problem.
6. The side couples and side characters storylines could have been better.
7. I can’t help but still cringe at some of Tinn’s cheesy flirty lines. It’s a little too much and over-the-top when he’s coming on so strong.


Overall, I had a good time watching this drama. It’s so different from the chaste/clean high school C-dramas. The flirting in this drama is at a whole different level. Either you find it funny or you find it too cringey. But through all these comedic moments, there are serious topics explored. I recommend you have the appropriate expectations before watching this. Otherwise, it might not be an enjoyable ride.

Most Musical MUSICAL Series I've seen so far

This series may sound like your typical rom-com series but that's where I was wrong. Well, plot-wise kind of typical but it won't disappoint.

This series is what I wished my highschool life could've been. There are so many lessons from this series and it's not only lessons about love but literally lessons about dreams, career, friendships and the reality that gay people experience.

What I loved the most about this series is the music. Every episode, there is a new song/OST for you to be obsessed with. And it's not just some cringe-ass music that was put there as a filler but literally a whole lot masterpiece that is very connected to the plot of the series.

I recommend this series so much especially if you're looking for a non-stressful series because life's already f**cking you up and you want something that is stress-relieving. This series also have the HEALTHIEST relationship that I've seen so far. (Such as immediately resolving conflict like jealousy and giving assurances when it's definitely needed without begging for it.)

I recently finished watching My School President, and I was very pleased with the lead actors' acting abilities. I was interested in the story throughout the entire series because the plot was so well-written. I appreciate how Germin assists Fourth with his music and academics. The two main characters' chemistry was also apparent, which made watching their scenes together even more fun. For anyone who enjoys a good coming-of-age tale with heartwarming moments, My School President is a must-watch. The dynamic between Fourth and their friends is fantastic, and it's endearing to see how they encourage one another in their individual goals. It's amazing to see how Germin's direction and support helped Fourth develop as a musician, and the song is so catchy.
