Cooking Crush (2023)

change in dynamics

I loved this and thought it was adorable. I really enjoyed the change in dynamic for offgun where off was the one pursuing guns character. it’s a nice change of pace.

this wasn’t ever supposed to be a dramatic angst filled show. instead we got sweetness and some laugh out loud moments. I truly enjoyed this change in dynamic of OffGun. and the OST is chefs kiss. I think I listen to it a few times a week.

if you’re looking for a low angst, light, fluffy, show give it a go I don’t think you’d be disappointed.

also this was probably they most intense kissing these two have done

now THIS is camp done right

i don't usually enjoy campy shows, so i was shocked when i was hooked on cooking crush instantly. i really like that in typical offgun series fashion, queerness was not treated as if it's some fantasy experience. they openly acknowledged the presence of homophobia and allowed the characters to fear rejection without watering their entire character down to how much they struggled.

the jokes almost all landed for me, the camera angles were fun, the acting was obviously incredible, and the plot was a bit lost on the cut version but honestly i personally didn't find it too bothersome.

overall i think this series deserves more appreciation. it's sweet, funny, and almost every character is extremely unique and lovable.

Made you feel like 18 again

This is slapstick comedy style, so if you're not into this, then this might not be for you. For me, I had a great laugh that's much needed! Some scenes might be a little lame, but some scenes just hit the spot

I've come to learn that beside his known crying skills, apparently Gun has a knack for acting shy too. Each time he blushes, I find myself blushing too lol.. This is a pure innocent cute show, almost showing puppy love, and it's heartwarming to watch

NC scenes lover, you're getting none, sorry! Lol

I really enjoyed the show, especially last episode, My jaw is sore from smiling ear to ear.

As for OffGun chemistry? Never disappoint as usual!

Pls don't let MDL comments/ratings affect you too much. Watch the trailer or 1 episode, and decide for yourself since everyone likes different things. It might just be the show you needed to watch, or maybe not....

A comedic relief

This is the perfect series to watch after we had just gotten some darker themed dramas such as Only Friends and Dangerous Romance. It’s the perfect drama to watch right now alongside Last Twilight because of the perfect contrast between the two. OffGun have shown us exactly what they’re capable of with Not Me so it’s so refreshing that they can have such an easier laid back series. The entire cast are just so hilarious and I’m enjoying the comedy aspect of the show.
I’ve waited a while for this show and can not wait for more from OffGun in the future.
You should watch it because OffGun has great natural chemistry and you can see Neo act as a “straight” man *insert crying emoji*.

A step backwards for OffGun after ‘Not Me”

I love OffGun and watch everything they are in, whether it’s together or their solo projects, but I really have a soft spot for them, as they are one of the 1st BL couples that I fell in love with, in both dramas and reality shows.

Cooking Crush is not a bad BL, it is a rom-com BL, heavy on goofiness and comedy, but very light on storyline and character development.

My beef is mostly with GMMTV, for using veteran BL couples who have proven their worth- starting their careers with several lesser roles on several so-so series, and have now worked their way up to a certain level of stardom and credibility.

I feel like their apex was definitely hit with last year’s Not Me. Not only was it worthy of OffGun, it had substance, serious subject matter, and was thoughtfully executed by these the entire amazing cast.

I thought “great! now that everyone has seen them at their best, they won’t have to do high school or college roles anymore.” SMH ?‍♀️

GMMTV has such a huge catalog of teen- early 20’s actors that could have easily slipped into these Cooking Crush roles.

IMHO, it’s a waste of OffGun’s talent to put them in these types of series that they have already done many times and now can do in their sleep.

Just one fan’s opinion..??‍♀️

Off the OffGun ship

I really want to support OffGun but I can’t. I have watched Theory of Love and Not Me. Usually the reviews and comment section are a pretty good gauge of whether I’ll watch an old series or not. I had watched Not Me and based on the reviews , I went and watched Theory of Love. Those were both good OffGun series.

I have watched 10 Years Ticket for Ohm and Off as someone who isn’t just a Bl fan but a fan of good actors in BLs unlike a lot of these crazy ass BL fvck fans who will only watch BLs and go into the comment sections to ask if it’s a BL or not before they’ll watch a series. You know fake delulu fans of ships who live breathe and worship at whatever temple of shipwork is delivering fake queer shit. Like JoongDunk, ZeeNuew and the like. The same kind of dipshit fans who will go protest OhmLeng because they are OhmNanon shipper and not fans of the actual actors. Fake fvck fans.

I have been waiting for this series to end to start since I could not get past the first episode to see if it got any better. Sadly, from the comment section and reviews, it seems like this is just a series for the shipper fans. The amount of people who said they only watched it for OffgGun and little else with the criticism of this being a shitty show is going to help me not waste my time with a shitty GMMTV series which solely relies on shipwork to sell the series. I cannot support good actors being put in a shitty series whether hit is a BL or not. Such a waste of talent. I don’t want to give GMMTV any idea that they can put out shit shows like Hidden Agenda and now this and think fans will put up with anything as long it has our favorites. I don’t care if I am in the minority who hates it when. GMMTV set such a low bar for fvck fans with this drivel. I didn’t like 2gether despite its popularity and I sure as hell don’t want OffGun to be labeled shitty actors by being associated with shitty shows. We as fans need to set the bar higher and not defend the indefensible just because we like a ship and the shipwork. Delivering grade A ship work like JoongDunk while giving us a total shit show with Hidden Agenda isn’t where I want BL to be.

Also, ruining the track record of talent actors like OffGun with this kind of dumb series isn’t where BL needs to be headed too. I need GMMTV to do better because I expect better.

Maybe the series deserves a higher rating but since it failed to get me interested despite wanting to watch it. I can’t give it a higher rating. This is a message to GMMTV and not about OffGun. It’s also a message to crap series won’t be tolerated.
