ONE OF THE BEST BL SERIES OUT THERE!
I have barely ever written a review here or anywhere else, despite being a hardcore BL fan, and not even for my most loved Thai BL series. But just finishing the last episode BAD BUDDY made me stay up for an extra 1 hour, create a MyDrama List account and fanatically type this review on my bed.
This series is hands down one of the VERY BEST Thai BL series ever made!
The plot is pretty simple and to be honest I started out half a month after the last episode was aired without following any bloopers, discussions or even.watched any summary. I had no expectation and just hope that this would not be a series that I might drop midway like many others recently. But NO! Bad Buddy caught my attention right from the first episode. It is now in my opinion in the same ranks as Tale of A Thousand Stars & I told sunset about you, but minus the extreme angst 😆 abd extra heat (yummmmmmm though I wish there was more)
It was the fun enemy setting, the interesting chemistry and build up of the characters main relationship that kept me going after every episode. There were hardly any scene that I thought were redundant, and even though there were bits that were a bit unrealistic and oversimplified but tbh isnt an escape from real life what we all try tp find in dramas anyway? :) You will find yourself laughing nonstop and wish the funny dueling and lovey dovey acts between Pat and Pran never stop.
Despite being a romantic comedy drama there are many deep underlying messages in my opinion. I LOVE LOVE LOVE how they portray HEALTHY RELATIONSHIPS!! (And Thai movies actually do highlight this a lot nowadays) The love between Pat and Pran develops naturally from a sneaky friendship to one-sided feelings and more. They are young and hot headed, but they are always honest to one another and try to communicate to find the way out. You will not find much of any prolonged angst [there is...] because by the end of the episode or next the angst/problem is already resolved. I particularly love how Episode 12 reveals their solution to the forbidden love! Simply giving any other stupid forbidden love couples a Big kick in the butt and educate young people to love smarter while balancing your relationships with everyone else. Pat and Pran will tell you that your lover is.important to keep, but family and friends are also just as indispensable. And can I please also reveal how much I love for the first time I see a BL series featuring GL as the side couple?! I'd absolutely kill to watch a spinoff of Ink and Pa as much as a second take of Bad Buddy!!!
As for the actors?? Absolutely amazing!! I think the fact that OHm and Nanon go to the same uni/college and of the same age made them sympathize greatly with the 2Ps and the story. I never think they were acting at all but simply being their own selves throughout. The CHEMISTRY is... un-describable!! And not to say they are unncessarily attractive and look wonderful with one another?? I have admired Ohm since He's coming to me and thought he would be big one day. But Nanon... OMG I cant believe I have only known him now! The more I look at him the more I am absolutely in love with his dimples just like Pat (Ohm... sorry not trying to be a competition just an admirer). They are obviously now set up as partners, and I am still new to their fanservice but I really really hope they can develop in real life and in future projects like EarthMix <3
Last but not least is the soundtrack. I will now have to practice the two main songs on my erhu and bracing myself hard. You will know how good they are esp with the series.
As for rewatch value :I never rewatch series as I like to keep my sweet first impression - but if you are someone who likes to rewatch _ make sure you still keep time for other new series bc this one will be high on the rewatch list 😁
OK if you are still reading at these lines, thank you so much for listening to my frenetic babbling but... WHY ARE YOU NOT WATCHING THE SERIES NOW? (if youre a fellow fan it would be great to chat cuz I'm seriously overhyped! haha) Cheers guys and happy drooling over this series!
