Simply the best drama about boy's love you'll ever find. And for me, personally, it's the cutest and funniest drama I've ever found. The chemistry between the characters is simple marvelous, and truly something you won't come across often. It made me swoon frequently. I had to rewatch every episode that came out as I was looking forward to the rest. I spent hours upon hours looking up things about the actors (which is definitely a huge bonus you'll get with this drama. The actors are as cute as their characters are!)

For the negatives, the acting is a little awkward in the beginning, but as the drama progresses and the actors become more comfortable, it gets much better. Also, you have make sure you find a proper subber. The first time I watched the first episode, I was as confused as Psyduck. After finding a more accurate translation, it become more understandable and more enjoyable.
The music has surprisingly low ratings compared to other categories, and I can understand. It's not mind-blowingly perfect, but I find that after a few episodes, it's very easy to get hooked to. Looking up the lyrics to the songs also helps, because they are very connected to the drama, and it makes you appreciate it more.

Overall, this is a drama I would happily recommend to anyone who is interested on some cute guy on guy love. I'd also recommend it to anyone who is simply curious about it, or enjoys cute romance regardless of the genders in question. It's great for almost anyone :)

If it were somehow possible to convince everyone on this planet to watch SOTUS, I would do it in a heartbeat. This drama has impacted me in so many ways. As long as I watched this, I felt like there was nothing else going on the world, the world was just this drama. Perhaps not the healthiest feelings to have, but it really drew me in in a way that I cannot explain.

Dramas have made me cry before. But I've never cried because one ended. I found myself unbelievably heartbroken after finish the last episode of the second season. Little things would remind me of this series, and I would become sad after remembering it's over. I spent so many hours watching fan videos and interviews with the actors. I convinced my friends to watch it, and I'll keep trying to convince even more friends to give it a go.

SOTUS is very unique in that it can be enjoyed by many people. One of those friends I mentioned is a straight male - and he really enjoyed it (although he had to look away during kiss scenes!)

At first, Arthit might seem like an asshole - the hazing process might not make any sense - but you'll start to understand by the end. Rewatching this series was just as great as it was watching for the first time, because now I know what the hazing really meant, and why Arthit does the things he does.

The romance is just so well done, it isn't forced in its development. They don't try to like each other, it just happens, without their control.

Even the side couples are adorable.

My only wish in life is for a season three.

There were so many reasons why I thought I wouldn't like it. The description is not that great, and I'm not into movies. I had also only tried watching one Chinese film before, and I really didn't like it.

However, I am so glad I gave this a chance. It was easily one of the most romantic pieces of film I've seen. You can really tell the characters care about each other. The actors have a passion in their eyes, making me truly believe in their emotions. It's been so long since I've seen acting this good. The romance made me squirm inside, and I had to keep pausing because my heart was beating so quickly. I truly adored them!

I admit, the plot is not new. There are some cliches. I usually do not like such things, but they managed to pull it off well nevertheless. It also drove me crazy how the characters would get into these little fights, when all they had to do was talk it out. Despite this, I was able to melt into the joy of their reunions, and that made it worth it.

I'd highly recommend this for the romance chasers who enjoy a little bit of angst on the side, but not for those were are looking for a super-dramatic plot.

I Hear Your Voice is a romantic law/crime drama, with supernatural elements on top of it. It's truly unique, and has an interesting plot that doesn't focus solely on the romance. There is a love-triangle, but for once the "second-lead syndrome" is not present. Both men treat the woman right. I knew that regardless of who she ended up with, I would be happy. But again, if you're not into sappy romance, you don't have to worry, as this drama is amazing even without the romance being taken into account.

White Christmas is a psychological thriller. Mystery is important in the beginning, but that is not the focus of the drama. Instead, this drama focuses on human behavior and begs the question: "Are killers born or made?". I admit this drama is a bit boring at the start, but you really have to stick to it. I even dropped it the first time I tried watching it, but I'm so glad I made the decision to go back and finish it. The conclusion does not disappoint. I have actually watched this drama 4 times. I have only ever rewatched one other drama, and I only rewatched it once. I notice new things every time I rewatch White Christmas, and I love every minute of it. A huge bonus: The fan videos of it are great! (But I don't recommend watching fan videos until you finish it, as there are spoilers in most of them.)

I'm going to be honest here. This is by far the worst drama I've ever seen. First few episodes were misleading, they made this drama seem promising. However, as the time went on, each episode gradually got worse and worse, to the point where it was laugh-worthy. However, I continued to have my hopes up, thinking maybe it would redeem itself more towards the end. My hope was shattered, the last episode was terribly disappointing, though it honestly was to be expected. Almost gave it one star, but gave it a second one due to the fact the very beginning wasn't all that bad, and some of the characters were actually very lovable. (I say "some," because really, the majority of the characters were just ridiculous and downright stupid).


"Acting/Cast" score clarification:
The actors were not bad at acting, but the characters they played as were ridiculous. I'm therefor not sure how to rate this category properly.

It looks like I'm actually in the minority for this, but I feel like this season was better than the first season. The pace was far less rushed, and it felt more realistic overall. I would really recommend giving this season a chance if you were on the fence about the first season. Just watching two or so episodes should give you an idea of whether you'll like it or not.

It's not the most fascinating story, but it's cute and it's something to watch. If you're bored, there's no reason not to give it a go, but if you have more interesting dramas you want to check out, this one can definitely wait.

I feel there are a lot of areas where this series can improve, and I do hope for a third season to see where it would go.

Puppy Honey is cute, simple, and straight to the point. It's a feel-good drama that you can watch on a cozy night.
Unfortunately, I feel that the development of characters and their relationships was very rushed and fell flat. The romance just...eh. It was okay at best. We just really didn't have any time to feel connected to them, and there wasn't much chemistry. I feel like 6 episodes was just not enough. There should have probably been at least 12.

I do want to emphasize that this drama wasn't bad by any means. It just wasn't as great as I was hoping it would be.
