La Cuisine (2022)

 At first I was really liking La Cuisine. The couple Ram and Lukchup was cute and sweet, I love when the seme, Ram, is this handsome guy who is kind and sweet, even if he could well be arrogant, he is instead down to heart. Lukchup was maybe a little bit too much sweet and cute, edging irritation sometime, but they managed to not fall into it. But then they decided to give the series a nasty turn with the wanna-be girlfriend of Ram... that side of the story was so bad, that it ruined basically all the series. True, you can ignore it, but it's a sour point. HEA. You can see it on GagaOOLala. Heat Level: 2/6.

Love Class (2022)

 I really liked Love Class, not sure why it's not rated higher. Cha Ji Woo and Lee Ro Ah are cute together, the appointments they go to complete their class project are sweet, and Lee Ro Ah is exactly the male lead I prefer, attentive and sexy, but not imposing, not hiding or crushing his partner with his persona. Really liked also the evolution of Cha Ji Woo, it was not immediate, but gradually he fell in love with a man, something that he wasn't expecting. But it's not like he is shocked or in denial, and I like that in him. HEA. You can see it on GagaOOLala, Viki and WeTV. Heat Level: 3/6.

Love Stage!! (2022)

 I have seen the Japanese movie and anime of Love Stage!! and they differ a bit from the Thai series, but the concept is more or less the same. In the Japanese version, Ryo is a little less "cool", he is also coming out like being older than Anda, and therefore there is a stark contrast between them. In the series Ryo and Anda are basically same age, and both inexperienced. Therefore the dynamics between them are sweeter. Indeed, in the series Anda is more aware of his potential as Ryo's partner, and I think he is teasing Ryo a little bit. I like this side of Anda, he appears less overwhelmed by the events and more decisive. HEA. Heat Level: 4/6.
