Ambitious but flawed

Things I liked:
- The cinematography and production had a refreshing and unique feel
- The atmosphere and setting convincingly transported me to a different time
- The music was enjoyable and added to the overall experience
- The acting from everyone, especially the main leads, was impressive
- There was great chemistry between the main and lesbian couples
- Ming, Jom's best friend, was a likable character and a true friend

Things I disliked:
1. The story/plot:
- There were several r*pe scenes involving the abusive husband that made me uncomfortable, and I found them unnecessary. His unlikable traits were already evident, and these scenes hindered the overall enjoyment of the show. Including such scenes made it difficult for me to consider this as a series I would like to rewatch
- I felt that the handling of the lesbian couple's pregnancy could have been improved. It would have been interesting to explore various ways they could have dealt with it, such as gradually coming to terms with it and planning to raise the child together. Alternatively, introducing a miscarriage could have added drama and allowed for emotional growth. However, the decision to include an abortion seemed abrupt and unresolved
- The ending left me confused and unsatisfied. The sudden appearance of Yai in the present was unexplained, and it felt lazy. If he was reincarnated, it would have been helpful to understand why he retained his memories and why it took so long for him to come. The portrayal of reincarnated characters with the same bodies also seemed unrealistic

2. The characters:
- The large number of characters introduced was overwhelming, and it was difficult to remember everyone's names even until the last episode. Many of these characters didn't contribute significantly to the story and could have been omitted
- The two main leads often seemed solely focused on their romantic relationship, especially after becoming boyfriends. They were constantly displaying affection, which became repetitive and monotonous. It would have been refreshing to see them engage in activities without constantly staring into each other's eyes and feeling attracted
- I didn't feel like I got to know the main leads as individuals. It's important to connect with the characters on their own in my opinion, rather than solely through their romantic relationship. There were only limited moments where they interacted with others, and Jom's character, in particular, felt underdeveloped and bland. Additionally, their lack of discretion in public scenes was frustrating and unrealistic
- While the presence of a queer character at the bar was a positive representation, I personally didn't resonate with the character. Particularly, during the scene where they were invited to expose the abusive husband, their laughter reminded me more of a witch, which didn't sit well with me. Overall, I wasn't a big fan of this particular character

3. Other:
- The pacing of the series was too slow for my liking. I found myself longing for action, new locations, and a faster tempo. Feeling the need to check how much is left to watch is never a good sign
- I personally thought that Jom's haircut could have been styled better to enhance the actor's appearance

Overall, while I recognize the potential of the series, I found the execution lacking and hope to see the main leads in another series with a stronger script in the future.
