Unforgotten Night (2022)

Just watch it.

I heard a lot of bad things about the show so I didn’t want watch it cause I already had the idea that it's gonna be pretty bad, but I gave it the opportunity and it’s kinda cute, ngl.

Obviously it’s not a Kinnporsche but it’s something that you can see when you don’t know what to watch. the first episodes are cringy and the enemies to lovers thing happens really fast.

It's not the best plotline and it's kinda cheesy for being a show about 'mafia' but i think it's worth to watch just for the experience, haha.

I understand that the time when this show aired was not the best, considerating that their competition were shows like Cutie Pie who has a lot of spicy scenes and KP that manages the mafia thing pretty good.

Don't hate the actors just cause they get a bad director. ):

Anyway, support Yoon and Ton, they’re cute together (even if they have more chemistry out of the screen).

I hated it so much but i would watch it 100x over.

So let me start off by saying that the plot was pretty good granted i do have a bit of daddy issues so a controlling man is kinda my cup of tea, sorry thats tmi, but i really thought i was gonna just watch the first episode cause i was bored and had nothing else to watch, but i invested my life and soul into this show, its not even boring it has okay pacing for how bad it is. The music was terrible though, if you've ever heard of a game called Heavy Rain, that's what it reminded me of just blaring crunchy piano music.

I know a lot of people were comparing it to kinnporsche which i get cause they're both mafia dramas but i didn't really like kinnporsche because it was too serious and got confusing at the end so i wont compare them.

I NEED TO SAY THIS, if you are going to make a show about s3x (idk if im allowed to say that) specifically BDSM, include it in the show. What im saying is, there was like 2 nc scenes in the show, thats not the part im mad about but the fact that they were lowkey uncomfortable and that was the only time we ever saw them really kiss kind of made me mad. Also they acted like Kamol was into some hardcore BDSM for him to just pull out one chain in a shower and thats it.

Ok im done.

Unforgotten Night

Comecei a assisti esse BL, por causa da sinopse!

O contexto da história foi bem interessante, claro que pecou em alguns momentos!

O enredo estava espetacular...

Mas teve momentos que eu gostaria de mudar em alguns episódios!

Os atores principais, no começo para mim, não caiu muito bem, por causa da idade e também do corpo, pois o ator Ton Saran Anantasetthakul que faz o Kim tem mais corpo que o Yoon Phusanu Wongsavanischakorn, pois no BL o Kamol tem que ter mas de 34 anos, pois a idade nesse BL, conforme eu fiquei sabendo, seria uma regra a segui pela história, mas ambos seguraram a história do começo ao fim!

O último episódio só posso dizer que eu adorei, ou melhor amei, mas como sempre, nem tudo agrada a todos, mas a mim, agradou, mesmo com algumas falhas no contexto e enredo!

Oddly romantic and enjoyable

I felt like writing a review because of the low rating, as I don't think it really deserved it. After seeing the score and all the negative comments I was bracing myself for the worst, but this one actually became one of my favorite Mafia-themed BL (the other one being "HIStory 3: Trapped").
As usual, my first worry was about the Mafia theme, as I feel like most series get it horribly wrong, but this time around I was pretty satisfied with it: it wasn't just about people waving guns around, but the weapons and the bodyguards also weren't there for show - there IS action and not just pretty people in suits. I also appreciate the fact that while this was one of the more "wholesome" depictions of Mafia, nobody in the series at any point acted as if they were just "misunderstood good guys", nor did they ever imply that being in the Mafia was anything remotely honorable or desirable.

The story wasn't anything new, but the execution was what caught my heart. I read somewhere that the characters in the novel are a lot different from the actors that were chosen for this series, but I believe that the choice was on point? Kim looks sweet without giving the idea of feeling absolutely powerless, and Kamol is just THAT good of an actor - he's very charismatic and his expressions made every scene feel vivid and real. The romance was very sweet and almost cheesy at some times, but I never felt annoyed while watching and it goes at the right pace without being forced. Although none of the characters are particularly deep, I appreciated how they gave some level of depth even to the secondary characters.
I won't pretend like there are no flaws to the plot - there were, I just enjoyed the show so much overall that in the end they didn't influence my judgement all that much. This might be because my expectations for this series were already pretty low to begin with, so you'll have to judge for yourself.
As for the sexy scenes, I can't judge because I didn't watch them: the series on YouTube had all its steamier parts cut to almost nothing, so there are only a few pecks here and there and not much else. I recommend looking up the episodes on a different platform for the full experience.

If you're looking for comedy then I strongly recommend looking elsewhere, but if you're looking for romance then this might be the right show to watch.

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

あまりにも中毒性のある作品

最高に面白いです。
このドラマは、かなり不思議な世界観です。
最初は面食らうかもしれませんが、そこをぐっと堪え観進めるとどんどん夢中になってしまう本当に面白い作品です。
全てが普通ではない、とにかく。
SM趣向のあるGamolが、偶然ピッタリの相手を見つけたことから、とにかくその相手のKimを執拗に追いかけます。
謎のピアノ旋律のBGMと独特なGamolのキャラクターが癖になります。
観終わる頃には、不思議な男Gamolの虜になっていること必須です。

Love it

It wasn't good at first so I thaught of dropping it in 1st episode that it didn't have anything related to 18+ scenes even though on dramacool uncut version. Butttt here's the main story starts, I got hooked after watching next episode's short clip in the end of 1st ep, so I didn't give up. Thanks to the story that their interactions got better after first episode and the chemistry got really interesting. Even the kiss scenes were enough heatable and passionate.
I think they didn't want the same intimate affection in first episode that's why it felt off but it's really good.
Side couple of bodyguard and maid's nephew is just so cute and adorable 🥰.
Kamol being tiger with his subordinates and kitty with Kim is so good.
I like Kim's both secretary specially Sammy since UWMA and some other BL💗
Cherry ( villain girl), her acting is so on point, she's cute and stunning with those outfits. I can't seem to hate her that she has dimples on her cute face.

I'm eagerly waiting for 7th episode.

I’ve seen way worse with way better ratings

For those seeing all the chatter on Unforgotten Night and wondering whether or not to watch it, here’s my take – it was actually not as bad as I expected. A possessive mafia boss falling in love with a stubborn, hot-headed stranger, and essentially becoming a different person when he’s with him? SIGN ME UP.

Apart from Kim and Kamol, the second couple in the series – Baiboon and Khom - was such a pleasant surprise! The storyline featuring a bodyguard and the nephew of a housekeeper totally deserves a spin-off of their own – it was regrettable that their story was pretty much overlooked.

With plenty of other BLs out there, it’s tough to justify why dramas these days still have weird cuts and transitions that stand in the way of smooth storytelling. But I could still follow the story for the most part even though not everything made 100% sense. The actors are also fairly inexperienced, perhaps with the exception of Yoon (I am kinda happy to see him), so be prepared for the quality of acting to be lower.

Lastly, I just wanna say that this rating of 18+ is seriously justified. It’s not just the violence and BDSM but also a shocking (imo) scene involving some of the bodyguards that didn't get very much screen time... but exists nonetheless. ;)

Respectfully this is bad

It is with respect to the actors, to the makers of this series that I have to say, sorry, it is really bad.
Let's begin with the easy; music choice: it is cheesy and very wannabe Italian-mafia music?
Its common to have a themse-song but this one just made the whole series even worse.

Followed by audio which, oh heavens! Sure, there are plenty of worse cases out there, no doubt but this one surely was a miss. While are at the external parts of the story, lets talk about scenography and lightning.
They went amateur deluxe! I've seen Phillipine budget dramas with better and overall cinography than this.
From here it's downhill.
The choice of actors was bit..mismatch?
To be honest, the surrounding cast felt more interesting and the main actors. The main actors did a good job as per directed I imagine, but there was no good chemistry anywhere. The serious and hanky spanky scenes felt more like comedy than something sexy. They tried the bdsm-theme but it's so terrible in so many degrees that it hurt my artistic kinky soul to the core.

Lastly, we have the so called story, well, about that..
..it was forced from the get go. The ONLY believeble part in the entire drama was a certain shower scene ;) with the guards... :D :D : D
Everything else was just like a nightmare or bad joke. Oh and it's 100% Stockholm-syndrome romatizised that well..blergh. When they pretended to speak other languages or well, they did speak other languages and it's so terrible that I found myself cry-laughing then fast forwarding due to the agony.

Giving this even more than a 2 in rating is charity.

PS! Apart from the failures a bit everywhere, they didnt failed too much with they eyecandy, hence some bonus rating stars :P

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.

Lazy Storytelling

As someone who had read the novel before, I can say that I enjoy this drama. Is this drama good? The answer is no. Is it the worst? The answer is also no. There are other worst ones.

But I can understand why this doesn't work on others. If you never read the novel from beginning to end, it's really hard to enjoy the drama itself. Actually, the actors in the drama did a great job in portraying their characters, because that's how they're written in the novel. The characters in the novel all have the same paper thin personality as in the drama.

The worst thing is they adapted the word by word novel into the drana, without changing anything or adding the aspects that makes visual storytelling more enjoyable. That's why I rated it as lazy storytelling. The drama team just slap the sentences in the novel onto the drama, without giving it a soul, making it sounds so boring and anti-climatic. When I read the novel, even though I think it's crazy, but since the novel has some kind of background information on why the characters do what they do, but in the drama they didn't bother to do that.

I know how the novel ended so I do know what will happen next, and I also have the privilege of knowing what they're thinking so I'm not that annoyed like others.

My verdict:
This is a watchable drama if you think you have nothing to do and you have a lot of time to spare, and you also no longer has other dramas to watch. It was not absolutely terrible either, and I actually grow fond of the main couples, despite their weird background. This drama is perfect to watch when you are doing something else, like working, doing laundry, etc, as you don't have to focus much to the drama.

Its a worth to watch it..

I watch this series coz the actor ( Ton Saran) . He seems to fit in with his partner. They had chemistry.
In episode 1 there may be a little disappointed (only in bed scene). Maybe they still shy, but are getting much much much better now. their kiss improve from the episode to another episode like their relationship ( kamolkim )in this series. Every episode is worth to watch it. The stories is good, the acting, absolutely good. The editing maybe little disappointed, but improve now. For me, this series is interesting and has its own specialties. I suggest you watch first. if you just read the negative comments and compare it to other series, you will only see the bad site. watch and rate yourself. my rating 10/10 after watching 6 episodes and always looking foward to the next episode.Spoiler for those who read the novels, bad scene are not adapted like novel but still make you heart pounding. There a sweet scene in every episode that can make us smile. I'm just love yoon and ton.
