Only Friends

Where do I even start with this show? Just know that what you've heard about it is true. Does it get messy? Petty? Toxic even? Yes, yes, and yes. And it's all the better because of it because I honestly feel like this is probably the most realistically plotted BL to date.

All the characters feel so real, and whether you like them or hate them, whether you can personally relate to them or not, they feel like real people. This is the type of show I feel like all queer people of a certain age should watch, regardless of your native tongue or background, because it's such an honest portrayal of our lives.

And the very best part of the show to me is actually the absolutely incredible performances that all the main actors are giving, as they play against type in complex, challenging roles. My personal favorites were First and Khaotung, who were an absolute joy to watch, especially in their shared scenes. Everyone brought their A game though.

I've said enough though, I obviously highly recommend this show <3 haha.
