OK so Bad Buddy was one of the first BL series I watched (the very first being Where Your Eyes Linger), and it quite literally ruined the entire genre for me. I mean it in a good way - it was so good that the rest just pale in comparison. The chemistry is overflowing, the acting is amazing, and the pacing is just perfect. It also subverts a lot of expectations that the casual BL fan will subconsciously have, such as sub/dom roles or a straight-except-for-him main lead, for example.

What I liked:

- OhmNanon have the best chemistry I've ever seen in a series, full stop (including those outside the BL genre). They were good friends at the time of filming, and you can absolutely tell. They are comfortable around each other, have a good rapport, quick banter, and don't shy away from physical intimacy. The fact that they are formidable actors on top of that, and are capable of delivering emotional scenes and the illusion of being in love, just helps sell the story being presented to the viewer.
- The story is not new (enemies?-to-lovers has been done many a time), but this just proves how anything can be entertaining if it's done well. I find the use of tropes to be very clever, as they are introduced to be questioned later on - an example of this would be Pat calling Pran his 'wife', and Pran calling him out for it. They don't waste a lot of time on the two hating each other, which I appreciate, because it usually drags on and can become quite boring; instead, we get two guys that want to be closer but are held back by their families' long-standing feud.
- GL couple!! It's so refreshing to see, and I need companies to start investing in more GL content as soon as possible. Pa and Ink are adorable, and I just wish we could've seen more of them - or at least a kiss, or anything. I hoped that Ink wasn't going to cause a rift between PranPat, and she didn't, and then she got a girlfriend instead? I'm sold.
- One of the few first kisses where neither of them is drunk, or high, or questionably out of touch with reality. Honestly, it surprises me how rare it is for this to happen - consent seems to be non-existent in a lot of BL series. So, points for that - and also for having the best kiss scene ever. It was not too long nor too short, there were no pecks or closed lips or open eyes, the hands actually did something, and neither was standing like a wooden plank. Seriously, I want to thank whoever directed this scene just for that.

What I liked, but not as much:

- Product placement - but that's just a Thai series problem, as I've come to realize lol. They are not subtle at all - I swear I've seen that damn printer ad in like three different series (I'm looking at you, My School President). I understand they have to pay their bills, but I wish they'd try to make it look more casual.
- I literally HATE Wai. You're telling me I have to like him after he literally outed his best friend? He's petty, whiny, and overall annoying as hell, and I will NOT hear anyone out about this. He deserved more backlash for what he did than he got. He didn't even apologize?? Nah. Hate the guy, I'm sorry. Korn was a much better friend.
- Had to skip the singing sequences, but that's just a personal preference. I just can't watch them. Whenever I see a guitar on a Thai BL series I want to scream. Also, I know Nanon can sing, but they did him DIRTY in some scenes.

Overall, just watch the series. Do it. It's, in my opinion, one of the best BL series out there.
