Uno de los mejores enemies to lovers que eh visto!
Realmente bad buddy fue un bl que me atrapo desde el primer momento, su historia es realmente buena y mas que nada los actores que los interpretan hacen que los personajes cobren vida y realmente se siente una QUIMICA, cada momento que tienen se siente lindo, memorable y en ningun momento incomodo, incluso los personajes secundarios no se sienten una carga y cada uno tiene su impotancia. Y al final puedes ver el gran crecimiento que han tenido la parejaRealmente no tengo nada mas que decir, en mi opinion uno de los mejores bl que eh visto

Manca un po di peperoncino
Bellissima storia, bellisime le musiche e bellissimi gli attori. Mi sarebbe piaciuto vedere qualche scena un po più hot. Il finale, anche se positivo, mi ha lasciato con un senso di incompiuto......per carità alla fine tutti hanno avuto cio che volevano, i protagonisti sono insieme felici e contenti, anche se devono tenere segreta la loro storia ed i genitori, nonostante sanno della loro relazione, fanno finta di non saperloe salvano il loro orgoglio.......... forse ci sarà la seconda stagione?.... chissà... speriamo ❤ ❤ ❤Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
I love this series!!!
Bad Buddy is, in my opinion, GMMTV's best BL series. The series is full of heartfelt and exciting to watch. The story is very emotional and above all, the story never gets boring. It is 100% a successful series. Bad Buddy is a 10/10 for me because for me everything in this series is perfect. I love this series very much and also the theme OST songs. This series is definitely recommended.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
First Episodes Worth Watching. Good Scenes and Distracting Elements
After the 6th episode, the series acted as if it was the 2nd season, but this is not the main problem. In the second half of the series, it started to repeat every event and scene that was beautiful in the first half in a more mediocre way. If I had to, I would only watch the first 1-6 episodes because they are worth watching. There are some very beautiful scenes that stay in my mind, I love this series for those scenes (room fight and lift etc.).Since I watched less scenes of Pat's retarded, unevolved friends, whom I hated and fast-forwarded their scenes, I am examining the series from the more BL part. Again, these unnecessary people were tolerable in the first episodes, hated in the middle, and towards the end it seemed that normalisation had begun. I didn't watch the continuation anyway
Tavsiyeye gerek yok, BL dünyasında zaten bu puanı almış bir yapımı izleyin. Herkesin bildiğini bilmemek ayıp olur.

The most healthy relationship ever!!!!!!!
I’ve been watching BL’s a little while now and this is the first time i’ve seen such a good and healthy relationship between the main couple. It’s sincerely and honestly one of the best dramas i’ve watched. The friends to lovers story is hilarious and cute and sweet and so so so healthy. The characters development, the way the always talk and try to work things out in the most respectful way possible is sincerely amazing. Their friends are so damn supportive and they stay with them until the end, without ever questioning anything, without being such asssh8les. Pat’s sister is the most adorable person ever, the friendship between Wai and Pran is so supportive, so important, so beautiful. Koran’s character surprised me soooo much, he really is the best friend Pat could ever ask for, just like Wai is for Pran. Ink’s character is so important and amazing too, I loved and admired her so much. Overall everyone should watch Bad Buddies Series because is honestly one of the best BL’S out there. The actors who played the main couple have such a cute chemistry and they are frankly adorable. Everyone one in this show is cute tbh. LOVED IT.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

stupenda
Ho amato e continuo ad amare infinitamente questa serie, ha un posto particolare nel mio cuore.Questa serie merita tanto, è assolutamente da vedere.
Ora che l’ho rivista ci sono delle cose che ho capito meglio e ciò mi ha dato la possibilità di capire al meglio la serie in sé e per sé.
Tra Ohm e Nanon c’è una chimica pazzesca, il ruolo principale in sta serie è dato dagli sguardi, i loro occhi parlano al posto delle loro bocche e devo dire che sta funzionalità non l’ho mai vista così forte e chiara così come in bad bunny.
Adoro la loro storia anche se complicata e adoro il loro modo di amare l’altro così sinceramente e carinamente, amo soprattutto il loro modo di “litigare” continuamente, sembrano cane e gatto.
Inutile dire che questa è una delle migliori serie che abbia mai visto, fantastica, i loro problemi sono così realistici e trattati in modo stupendo.
Infine devo dire che adoro come hanno deciso di fare all’ultimo ep., tutti avrebbero pensato che si fossero lasciati ma nulla, non l’hanno fatto e io adoro quando non ci sono rotture del genere.
Alla fine non ho scritto molto ma seriamente c’è tanto da dire al riguardo, in ogni caso consiglio fermamente questa serie.

For all the hopeless romantics, this is an absolute treat.
For all the hopeless romantics, this series is an absolute treat, delivering a heartwarming experience.In the beginning, I expected another cliche and not properly thought-out university drama. Been overdone now, but I carried on. While reading this review of Bad Buddy 2021, keep in mind that I started watching this movie expecting it to have a lot of NC scenes (No Children scenes).
Bad Buddy was a generally great series, the actors did a good job in bringing the characters to life. It has the power to make you burst into laughter, shed a few tears, and even feel like dancing around the room.
Firstly, the acting is truly commendable, with the cast delivering impressive performances. What sets it apart is how genuine the reactions and physical interactions feel; there's a naturalness to their chemistry that never comes across as awkward or forced. The relationship depicted in the series steers clear of toxic dynamics. Instead, it keeps you engaged and wanting more.
Pat brought sugar and fun to Pran's uptight character. Pat was the comedian of the duo. And I think they had one of the most beautiful kiss scenes I've seen in a Bl series(Pat and Pran's first kiss)
If you're like me who starts certain BL series with NC expectations, perish that thought because, on a scale of 5, this series is at 0.5 with the steamy content but is 4 out of 5 stars in general. This is a 4 because while it's an overall great performance, I refused to see the hype behind this Bl series and in my books, I've watched better like Kinnporshe, and even The Eclipse.
Maybe my opinion is biased because these series that I consider better than Bad Buddy are more recent and the industry has progressed.
Also, I still found bits of this series cringe, and the plot is not very new. It is still another university BL drama but was just executed better.

All in all, I do recommend it.

A BL Drama for the Queers and such a fresh breath! Sets the bar high for the industry.
23.5 is airing currently and after watching the 1st episode, I found out that Milk & Love (the two actresses who play the lead couple in 23.5) are also a side GL couple in Bad Buddy! I didn’t even know there‘s a lesbian couple in BB, when I added the series to my watch-list a year ago.Bad Buddy was really good actually. I was surprised by how good – I had not expected such a fresh breath in many aspects!
It often reminded me of SOTUS & SOTUS S... But it’s more of an “updated”, more modern version of S. It’s like what S & SS could’ve been, if homophobia hadn’t been such an issue back then.
Which is nice. S had been (and maybe still is) a classic in the (Thai) BL fandom, but essentially is very outdated already. BB shows how much the world/genre has changed – for good. How much we’ve grown. A new, better generation started.
While most BL Dramas are made for straight women, this series feels like it’s been made for us, the Queer community.
PatPran’s relationship is so healthy, so natural and just happy vibes. They’re not together because the “kisses are hot”, but because they’re each other’s safe space. All the physical stuff that comes with most romances is more like a side bonus for them, but not the main reason for the relationship.
They communicate and respect each other’s boundaries. They fight for happiness and don’t let jealousy get the better of them. (Thus resulting in plot points being cleared quickly, without unnecessary dragging.)
Not only that, it also calls the toxicity of other BL Dramas out, especially those that are very heteronormative & stereotypical. Plus it shows how to do it better. Some quotes as an example:
1.) “I can’t say exactly when. I don’t even know for sure when I changed. Maybe I’ve liked men for so long, but I just realized it.” – Pat
“I thought you’d be like: ‘I’m straight but Pran is the only guy I like.’” – Pat’s sister
2.) “Does calling me a wife make you feel superior?” – Pran to Pat
And finally: SWITCHES!!!
Not only was it not heteronormative, it also had no homophobia.
Just like Only Friends, a world where queerness is simply normal and not very special anymore. That was for example shown when a guy had a crush on a girl, but that girl was on a date with another girl and he realized he was totally third-wheeling, so he stopped pursuing her and accepted his “heartbreak”.
Generally, female characters are treated well.
I’ve mentioned it in my review of Only Friends already, but even though BL Dramas have women as its target audience, female characters are usually treated the worst, for some reason.
Not here.
Except for Pat’s attitude towards his sister, there was no misogyny present at all and females are actually respected. As you can see in the example above, GL isn’t seen as “girls being girls” either.
Parents actually seemed like parents.
Writing a realistic & natural family dynamic is apparently difficult everywhere in the world. But gmmtv managed to write the parents as people, not just characters who have a certain role in the MCs’ lives. Conversations felt natural, not scripted, and their dynamics felt real.
The “rivals to lovers” trope was also really well done. Even though they were more like frenemies, their rivalry didn’t magically stop once they started dating. Their bickering totally continued and they used that to their advantage in the relationship (e.g. by pushing each other through competing).
I loved the comedy.
Just like in Only friends, no one served as the comedic relief, everyone had funny scenes. Scenes that went along with the story and weren’t forced in. Scenes that felt natural, not written. Scenes that will still make you laugh even after re-watching it for the 10th time.
The actors' chemistry is just as wonderful as in Only Friends. Maybe even better, since PatPran’s relationship was much more explored on the romantic level, than any of the couples in OF.

Mixed feelings:
Upon first watching, I wasn't much a fan of Pat's personality, but that's mostly because of his attitude and the way he was treating his sister (Pat's family dynamic generally is rather toxic, compared to Pran's). But he warmed up to me in the 2nd half and especially when he was using that "charm" of his to help Pran out. Plus, Pran didn't let Pat win as easily, so there's also that. They balance each other out and you can see why the universe paired them up.
At first, the reason for the feud seemed pretty anti-climatic. The way it was built up and given it’s a drama, you’d expect something more “extreme”, more devastating.
But after re-watching and imagining myself in the person’s situation, who was the most hurt by the reason, it is actually pretty dramatic. I guess the problem was just how they revealed it, that made it seem like it’s not really worth being so upset about it, but if you really think about it and put yourself in the shoes of the person (and think back 30-40 years, times were different), it gets more understandable. And totally valid.
The zero waste village was rather contradicting. As an environmentalist I do like the idea and am glad that gmmtv uses their popularity to talk about these things. However, on the other hand, the amount of plastic they've used and continued to use, as well as promote brands that are just plastic...
~
Overall I love it, it's become my favorite of gmmtv.
I watched it on the 12th March 2024 the first time and re-watched the entire series just one day later. I'm swooned and can't help to come back to them.

10 estrelas
achei q o bl em si foi um "breaking stereotypes" mesmo a história sendo "cliche" tiveram bastante coisas q eu e talvez muitas pessoas não esperam em um bl, como por exemplo um casal safico, o fato do pat ser o cara muito músculo e mesmo assim ser um bottom. Eu particularmente gosto bastante da história, achei legal esse lance de Romeu e julieta versão gaykkkk, além do cast ser impecável, caras nos temos o Drake e o mark no mesmo cast, nanon, love, milk, ohm pawat, Jimmy!!!( lembro q na época de estreia o elenco era super unido, postavam coisinhas toda hora, sem dúvidas um dos melhores casts se não for o melhor. No geral, sou apaixonado nesse bl, o melhor bl do aos!Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
NOT MY BL ROMANCE TOTALLY
Yes, you've seen it on my headline. This is not my BL romance that I need but this is one hella CUTEST, CHEESIEST and MOST ADORABLE couples in the BL Drama world.The plot goes from your usual enemies to lovers. This shows the struggles of two young men who fell in love with each other despite of their family circumstances. I love how they choose the parents' rivalry as the reason of the two main characters competing with each other. The setting of the drama is very common but they made the atmosphere of the whole series to the next funniest level, Thanks to the non-stop comedy!
What can I say about this epic casts aside from nailing their roles so hard? Nothing but praise-worthy!
This is a must-watch! Although I was a little bit worried in the first episode, but I was smiling and laughing so hard all throughout the series.
Recommendable drama!

É ATÉ OK MAS É MUITO IRRITANTE
Vamos lá, quando cliquei para assistir essa série eu não estava esperando muita coisa pois a capa não me chamou a atenção mas decidi dar uma chance e foi uma experiência até que ok mas com muitas ressalvas.Tem tópicos que eu gosto nessa série (enemies to lovers/ vizinhos de porta/ romance proibido) e foram esses tópicos que me mantiveram assistindo até o final.
Já a construção eu achei ultrajante e eu vou te dizer o motivo.
Desde o começo existe uma rivalidade entre as famílias do Pran e Pat e por isso eles sempre tiveram uma inimizade mas vamos descobrindo que um sempre gostou do outro, só que do começo até o final eu achei o Pran insensível por mais que ele gostasse do Pat.
Pan o tempo todo atribui culpas ao Pat que não são dele, inferioriza o relacionamento, foge de contato físico e é mal agradecido com as coisas que o Pat faz por ele, ele só se importa de verdade e demostra seus sentimentos quando esta sozinho.
Pat é um bom personagem mas que não teve muita construção, ele orbita em torno do Pran.
Teve um casal coadjuvante que até a metade você nem sabia que ele teriam potencial pra casal e quando acontece é absolutamente do nada sem nenhum tipo de desenvolvimento ou explicação (tanto que só acontece no finalzinho).
E principalmente, o relacionamento deles já era escondido e depois quando a coisa explodiu decidiram priorizar a família e se esconder de novo assim passando menos tempo juntos (o que eu acho a maior burrice, odeio a romantização de famílias tóxicas) e depois disso um ainda foi trabalhar fora por mais 2 anos (odeio como tratam separação de anos como algo romântico sendo que é algo destrutivo e desgastante num relacionamento, passagens de tempo são intragáveis pra mim) e quando volta eles ainda estão escondendo o namoro como duas crianças.
ABOMINÁVEL.
É uma série assistível mas tem muita coisa que me fez revirar os olhos e até rir em descrença.

O que eu escrever aqui provavelmente não é nem metade do que eu tenho a dizer
Assisti Bad Buddy por recomendação da minha melhor amiga que já tinha assistido duas vezes e queria reassistir comigo, porque pensou que ia gostar, e não só gostei como virou minha série de drama favorita. No intervalo de episódios que assistimos (demorou dois anos e um mês para assistirmos tudo), assisti e li outros BLs, mas nenhum me fez sentir o que eu senti assistindo BBS.A imersão dos atores nos personagens, o "dever" pessoal de reprimir seus sentimentos para não se machucar, a dor de um possível amor não correspondido, as consequências da repetição de padrões familiares, as versões diferentes de uma mesma música na trilha sonora mostrando o quão significativa ela é pros protagonistas, tudo isso, expresso de forma explícita e implícita de uma forma incrível, numa história de romance entre dois homens que, pasmem, não tem nenhuma fetichização ou romantização de abuso, que infelizmente é muito comum nesse tipo de mídia.
É uma história completamente saudável que vai fazer você ter carinho pelos personagens principais, rir de muitos momentos bobos e toscos, e se emocionar em cenas impactantes, ainda mais se você, mesmo que minimamente, se identificar com um dos dois protagonistas.
Vale totalmente a pena assistir, e reassistir mais vezes. Bad Buddy me marcou muito positivamente e provavelmente vai marcar você também, dê uma chance, você não vai se arrepender.
