Bad Buddy

 

💥 Bad Buddy – 10/10

“From rivals to soulmates, from chaos to comfort—this is Bad Buddy.”

Let me just scream it from the rooftops—OhmNanon are the moment, the legacy, the heart and soul of this genre. Bad Buddy wasn’t just a BL. It was a phenomenon that blew past every expectation and brought authenticity, humor, and heart-thumping chemistry into the spotlight.

We’ve all seen the “rivals-to-lovers” trope. But Bad Buddy takes it, flips it, and breathes life into it like never before. Pran and Pat—two boys from feuding families, doomed to be enemies, but destined to fall in love. It’s witty, it’s chaotic, it’s deeply romantic, and above all, it’s real.

🔥 Ohm as Pat is the ultimate golden retriever energy—brash, loud, charming, but with a heart so soft it melts you.
🌙 Nanon as Pran? Perfection. The micro-expressions, the sarcasm, the internal conflict—it’s acting masterclass. His pain, hesitation, longing? All palpable.

And when they’re together? Electric. Every touch, every glance, every smirk and every sigh is filled with layers. You feel the love blooming between them, hidden behind their teasing and bickering until it bursts forth—tender, unstoppable, and unforgettable.

💫 What makes Bad Buddy stand out, though, is its maturity. It tackles themes of generational conflict, pressure to conform, queerness in a heteronormative world, and the fear of losing what you love. The direction by Aof Noppharnach is just chef’s kiss—from clever transitions to perfectly timed silence.

✨ 10/10 — For giving us not just a BL, but a coming-of-age story layered with warmth, tears, laughter, and rebellion. For showing us that love doesn’t always shout—it often hides in stolen glances, quiet protection, and late-night conversations behind a dorm room door.

If you’re looking for a love story that feels like home after a storm, Bad Buddy is it.
