Unforgotten Night (2022)

Maravilloso final

Este bl es precioso realmente me conmovió mucho ese final!
Espero que los espectadores no se dejen llevar por el primer episodio que la verdad no es tan bueno especialmente por sus actuaciones y la primera escena NC que trata de sadomasoquismo y no esta tan bien representada aún así yo recomiendo darle una oportunidad porque a lo largo de la serie se va a encontrar con hermosas interacciones entre los personajes principales.
Esta serie además trata del amor, la amistad y la familia. Kim es una personaje maravilloso♡ fue mi favorito, siempre tan fiel a el mismo tiene un gran corazón sin duda que aprendí mucho de él! Por favor dale una oportunidad a esta serie estoy segura que te va a encantar

Nothing more than a meme material!

This series is rated 18+ not because of the graphic and sexual scenes but for the mental torture this series happens to be!

When the trailer dropped for this series, I reckoned acting and direction will not be its strongest suit, but still, I was hoping for a better plot.
But when the first episode dropped, all hell broke loose. It was awful! I still decided to go on, but now 4 episodes , in, nothing makes sense.

Bad acting and poor directing skills overshadow anything that might be good in it.

I am still scratching my head for who thought this series is worthy of airing. The cast has no chemistry whatsoever. It is like they are being forced to work with each other.
Yoon should not have played Kamol. He does not make a good mafia character. I am sorry to his fans but his acting is awful in this series! The actor that plays Kim is not good either. Everyone is either overacting or is stiff during the scenes.

Their kissing scenes and intimate scenes are straight-up cringy. I rather stick a fork in my eyes than watch them awkwardly kiss. The direction is so bad! A teenager would have done a better job.

The story doesn't seem worthy either. Overall this series is a new definition of BAD in Thai bl.

Keep with it

The first episode I was unsure as I was also watching Kinn and Porsche so in comparison not as steamy. The first episode being the pilot I think they were still trying to figure out the camera work. And when using the nine tails I think the actor was not aware his face was being focused on so that was odd and disconnected from the scene. But after episode one it gets good. Keep with it.

It portraits a story were the lead is acting as one would act in his situation. He is reluctant to get involved with the Mafia world. Wants to be left alone and does not just roll over and give up. Keep watching, the storyline is good I don't feel like episodes are a waste of time, they all have purpose and help develop the story.

Homoerotic Love as a Driving Force for Cinematic Action

I do wish I spoke, or at least read, the Thai language. I have deep suspicions that the subtitles to this series leave something to be desired. And that's a pity, because the storyline is strong. I do like the way in which the threads involving both main characters are introduced and come together from the very first episode.
I've read a few opinions to the effect that "Unforgotten Night" is a weak production, but I do not agree. It's an intriguing production, and, coming on the heels of the outstanding and expensive "KinnPorsche the Series", holds its own very well indeed. There are one or two clumsy moments when, for example in the forecourt of the MC's mansion, a fleeting corner shot shows a camera crew at work (Episode 4 or 5, as one remembers), but these can be accepted, and one imagines that the editors will learn from them.
One of the particularly strong aspects of "Unforgotten Night" is the casting and the general power of the characterisation. From the outset, both main characters demand full audience attention, while the supporting cast, from the largest to the smallest role, are all excellent performers.
They say that working with animals is difficult. You can lose all control of the audience because of "cuteness", and this is very true of "Unforgotten Night", with its inclusion of two excellently trained Bengal tigers. I don't intend to insert a spoiler here, but the look on the face of one of the animals (I think it's a female) when it first spots one of the MCs definitely says: "Pork chop, and it's mine..." No-one should miss this scene.
"Unforgotten Night" reveals the full range of interpersonal conflicts, and the characters continue to develop their individual stories throughout the action in a highly satisfactory manner. Bodyguards can easily become nothing more than stock figures, but in "Unforgotten Night", the main bodyguards take a strong part in the development of the story line, to the extent that one cannot avoid becoming curious about their second-level stories as integral parts of the plot.
The two main characters, Yoon Phusanu Wongsavanischakorn and Ton Saran Anantasetthakul, are powerful throughout, neither dominating over the other, but both showing a personal strength and individual determination which is probably one of the strongest aspects of "Unforgotten Night".
I will be very sorry when this series ends, but it has a definite and very strong re-watch value, which will be of some comfort.

Dollar store Vegas-Pete

Aren't they embarrassed to air this while KP was airing?

I wrote a review about Kinn-Porsche saying that it was basically fetish porn disguised as mafia drama and it was not up to my standards. Well, this one is also disguised (unsuccessfully) as mafia drama, the fetish part was clearly written/executed by someone who knows nothing about BDSM and there was exactly ZERO chemistry between the super toxic (as usual) relationship between the protagonists.

Basically if you have watched 50 shades of Grey prepare yourself for something like that, but worse.

So the main character consists of Kim, a guy who was rejected by someone he was in love with and decided to have a one night stand with Kamol (the mafia boss), without knowing who he is. Afterwards, Kamol becomes obsessed with Kim, declares him the person he has always been searching for and basically acts like Vegas acted with Pete. The problem is that there is NOTHING about Kim that would explain Kamol's obsession.

Unlike KP (especially the novel), that progressively shows multiple rare qualities in Pete (empathetic, good looking, intelligent, loyal, good fighter etc), Kim is the most boring, annoying and avoidant person possible, who treats Kamol like shit most of the time and is clearly not attracted to him. There is zero chemistry between them and after enduring 5 episodes, it's time for me to throw in the towel, because this nonsense isn't getting any better.

Kamol in return, acts like an abuser and stalker who practically forces Kim to live with him. As if all that wasn't enough, there is an annoying, bitchy and unprofessional female ''rival'', who wants Kamol for herself.

To the loser authors: in order for someone to be an interesting rival, there has/had to be something going between them and their love interest. Kamol never wanted this woman and she justs end up acting delusional and repulsive and adds nothing to the plot.

The soundtrack is also so awful, that I had to mute it at times and I have never done this before, although I have watched many BLs.

Don't even bother with this nonsense drama.

The Best Ever Drama

I have watched this drama/serie , call it what you want.
In my opinion this is the best and the hottest drama that you could ever find.
I fell in love with the actor who played the Mafia Boss and i literaly fell of my chair when i was waching the first episode. I love this drama so so much. All actors are fantastic but the main lead actor and his companion made me love the BL drama so much more. I love the actor that played the character Mafia Boss and he is my official idol. He is my only idol.
He is an amazing actor and he is lucky to have a partner if i am correct by his side in reality .
I really really want to see more dramas with Yoon Phusanu Wongsavanischakorn ! He is such a handsome, intelligent and amazing actor.
He is the only nr.1 actor on my list of actors that i love so so much. He is the star in my list . He is the best ever.

Popcorn Drama. Nothing more, nothing less.

I highly debated rating this series 6.0 because the story was a mess from beginning to end and the chemistry just wasn't there for me. Could Yoon and Ton be anymore awkward/uncomfortable together? And man both the kissing scenes and the NC scenes were laughable. But I digress. Ultimately I went with a 6.5 because I realized as much as the story made me scratch my head many many times I didn't hate it as much as I originally thought I would. I found something funny in every episode while that was intentional or not, I had a fun time watching. Unlike Enchante,(the only other series I've rated 6.5) I didn't find the story dreary or any of the characters unlikable. I pretty much enjoyed all of them, esp if I saw them as parodies. The characters often didn't make sense but I could understand as long as I still found the situation funny, which I did. The cast did the best they could even if I felt all of them could have done better: Yoon: cough.

There were times I felt like I was watching a Mexican Telenovela which again ramped UN up in the entertainment value. And that's why I call this a popcorn drama. It's mindless entertainment set to make people have a good time, forget troubles and despite it's flaws Unforgotten Night did that. I'm gonna miss this chaos for that reason. Now what am I gonna watch to laugh at? And enjoy? I guess time will tell.

I hope Unforgoten Night serves as a sample of what not to do in a series, while not as bad as Check Out it could have been so much better. The production really dropped the ball on this one.

Liked it but....

I usually dont write 1st episode reviews but there were a few things that kinda bug me. I like the overall idea of the story but it isnt very realistic so far.

My issues:

1. When Kim and Kamol hook up the first night there is
zero explanation of what is about to happen. Kamol
asks Kim 3 times if he is drunk which is great
because he is making sure he is able to give consent
But does Kim REALLY know what he is consenting
to? Not really sure he does.

2. Can it please be a bit more realistic? The cuff
was so loose not sure what it's purpose really was.
No talk of safe word. And really in both people they
showed a bit more marking than there should be
kinda borders on torture not pleasure and the wrist
marks where did they come from?

3. The kissing was weird. Neither of them looked like
they'd ever kissed before.

I will definately continue this show. I think it has a lot of potential. I may just have to try to overlook the lack of research on the BDSM side of it but hopefully at least the kissing will get better and there will be some sort of plot. So far it was basically an intro to the characters and the BDSM. Keeping my fingers crossed.

UPDATE: Well I finished it. I kept hoping it would get better but it really didn't. Ithink I may have enjoyed this more had I not watched KinnPorsche first. This show kinda seemed like a low budget knock off of that show. The acting was awkward moreso on Kim's part than Komol's. But Kim mostly seemed indifferent even as he was saying he wasn't.

The BDSM that was part of it's billing really only came into play in episode one, kinda mentioned a few times afterward but that was it. So if that is part of your reason for watching this show you will be disappointed. 50 Shades of Grey had more in it than this show.

If you haven't watched a lot of BL's and haven't watched KinnPorsche you may enjoy this series but for me it just didn't check all the boxes.
