Bad Buddy Ep. 9: Tiny PatPran Kisses

oxygen the series: episode 13

non-sexual intimacy is my kink and this drama is the king of it. 

i’ve never seen a drama where the main couple gets together so early and there is ZERO relationship drama.  it’s all external conflict that they face head-on as a unit. communication + respect + patience + small touches to show they are precious to you…soooo good.

just skip through the hetero bullshit (didn’t watch any of it after ep 2 lol) and this is a very rare gem of a show. it has a soft, sentimental tone overall (except for big bunny energy kao/ball!) because the two main characters are both more reserved and quiet and when they were delivering the cheesiest of lines coming from any other character it is SO in-character for them felt. 

Can you believe that Gaya Sa Pelikula talked about so many lgbt+ related issues as openly as it did? 

Can you believe that it gave a lesson about euphemisms and how it is not shameful saying the word gay out loud? Can you believe it talked about allyship and how it’s not always done right, but that if people are willing to listen to lgbt+ people and are open to learn it is valuable? When was the last time you saw a show saying microaggression? And especially, related to how people assume that passing privilege is a good thing and shame more feminine lgbt+ people. When was the last time you heard that “you don’t look gay” is NOT a compliment as explicitly as gsp did? Can you believe it also talked about how Vlad devalued those little mundane romantic things like prom because as lgbt+ we feel those are still out of reach for us because of the hateful societies we live in? But then immidiately showed us that we can have those experiences as lgbt+ people. Can you believe how they also highlighted that coming out feels like coming home, or all the talk about Boca del Cielo which is a place that doesn’t feel real but in the end it is found, and how the show values finally being able to express yourself as lgbt+ as something to celebrate and dance to? Something freeing and beautiful?

that finale was perfect.

i don't think any other drama has handled a love triangle as healthy and softly as light on me did. how each character grew and did what they said they were going to do: change for the better.

how the two "rivals" still managed to keep being friends and not hold their "grudges" or whatever against each other. still just vibing, like friends should.

HOW SHINWOO AND TAEKYUNG STILL MANAGED TO BE BOTH CUTE, AWKWARD AND STILL BICKERING LIKE THE FIRST TIME???? the only thing that changed was them now being allowed to be disgustingly cute as boyfriends WITH SO MUCH HANDHOLDING and not caring what other say.

light on me really did that with the budget that they had, twice a week, 16 eps and 20min run time. one of the best series of 2021. don't even try to change my mind.
