A masterpiece among BLs
I'm writing this review after watching this series several months ago and then rewatching it after watching a few more BLs. My view of it remains the same. This drama was a masterpiece. This drama was actually the second BL drama I ever watched, with the first one being a few years prior. I was actually thoroughly surprised at the depth that this story held, and the sad and tragic way this story was told. It's a melodrama among BLs. which I cant say is uncommon, however none have made me weep like this one has.
The writer's choice to make the reincarnated In and Korn into modern day characters that fall in love once after committing double suicide due to the homophobia of their parents by itself is just genius. The looks, the feelings that each of them had when they saw each other for the first time, the flashbacks of their past life, wow. It was a story that flowed so well to me. and one that manages to address most of the grey areas that one has. Opening the drama with the double suicide was absolutely wild but set the tone for the entire series. It was not going to only be cute and happy. It was grief, longing, desperation and ill fated love.
Some things I loved:
- Fluke was acting his behind off. He put his all into Pharm's character, and the trauma he got from In witnessing Korn kill himself stays true throughout the entire series. I felt his sadness, his fear. I was captivated by his character.
-traditional Thai desserts. This was a good little addition to the story, and the way each of the desserts he made was connected to his past life just made it even more enjoyable. a story with proper connections!
- Opposite personalities. Dean taking In's confidence and pursuing Pharm and Pharm taking Korn's reserved nature but opening up to Dean was also a refreshing take. Of course each person has their own personality, but this was just a little treat.
- storytelling, just overall the way the story was unveiled I was on the edge of my seat
Things I disliked
-Manaow. I'm sorry, fight me! I could not get behind her over acting and antics like girl please sit down!
- Family tree. Confused us all with the mixing of families in the reincarnation process, like are they distant cousins now? (i know theyre not related by blood technically but also hmm) They couldve just kept it in the same families lol.
- Reincarnation after 1 generation. I mean I get that theres no hard n fast rules to reincarnation but 1 generation seems real quick to me. But anyway
Overall
The things I disliked were ignorable and thats why I only took off half point for the story. Overall I really liked it and have been recommending to many people. worth the watch.
