Honestly my favourite drama right now
OKAY SO. This is by far ine of my all time favourites. The acting and the chemistryis unbelievable, and the story is beautiful. Before starting this drama i had actually just begun a different one. Almost dropping it so i could watch this, id seen a fanmade trailer and instantly fell in love with it. I ended up waiting till I'd finnished the first one, and im so glad i did, I dont feel like i was prepared in the slightest for the litterally instant emotional roller-coaster. I got about 5 minutes into the first episode and i was sobbing. The side ship between Win and Team is honestlymy favourite thing they are so cute together i cant wait to see how they develop and what actually becomes of their relationship since currently it hasnt actually been said they are together, just heavily implied by some scenes. The series is only at episode 11, and i feel like so much has happened already, cant wait for even more, bring on the next 7!! Still have a full week till the next episode comes out ahhhEsta resenha foi útil para você?

1. THE LENGTH!!!!!!!!
They dragged this show out at first it started with like 12 episodes and then they extended that to 16/17 and in my opinion even 12 was too long. Now I have not read the book but many people have said that it is actually pretty short so why they thought they could get this many episodes from one short book is anyones guess. With such a short story they had to find something to fill the rest of those 16hrs and what they came up with...... cooking lessons and awkward dramatic staring contests. Like no joke I felt like I was watching a Thai cooking show half the time, and while that might be interesting to some it's was not what I signed up for. Don't even get me started on the pauses and stares, at a certain point I started wondering why people around them weren't questioning why these two guys were stopping to stare into each others eyes for 5 minutes mid conversation. By the time they announced the episode extension I was begging them to end my suffering. It just took too long for too little to happen . After the 13th episode I gave up and not even WinTeam (who I absolutely love and really hope they have their own BETTER series) could save it for me.
2. THE STORY
The main plot of reincarnation and a love that surpasses even death is a very interesting one and I think would make a great series.... it didn't here though. People have said that the book is good so I have to assume that the main problems came with transforming the book into television. Tbh I had a lot of trouble connecting with Dean and Pharm's love story. It felt a little too much like insta-love. I understand the whole idea of how they were in love in their lives before, and their souls recognize each other etc but it's hard to connect to that having only a few flashbacks of Intouch and Korn. I kinda think it would've been better if the first few episode had just shown In and Korn's story in the past before moving to the present with Dean and Pharm. It might have changed the original story but then at least viewers might have been able to connect better with Dean and Pharm's love story making it feel less insta-lovey, especially if you haven't read the book.
Again I wanna repeat I am not saying that this show is horrible and unwatchable, it's not you can watch it. you might even enjoy it, but it is nowhere near as good as it should be especially with such a talented cast. Just gonna take a moment to give Fluke his props he is an amazing actor even with the script he was given, which I'm pretty sure is 40% crying, 50% P' Dean and 10% cooking show host. Some others were also noting a problem with the volume of the music and editing and I gotta say I didn't notice it, I didn't even mind all the repeated flashbacks. I really hope that if this show hasn't does as well as they expected/wanted it to it doesn't prevent other directors/studios from creating new bl series with more creative, non stereotypical plots because I think we can use a lot more series like this one..... just better.

Buena
Siendo esta la segunda vez que la veo puedo decir varias cosas.En cuanto a historia está bien manejada y estructurada, aunque hubiera deseado que se dejaran en claro algunas cosas de las parejas secundarias, en general que se ocuparan mejor de los personajes secundarios.
Las actuaciones me parecieron buenas para el tipo de serie que es, creo que logran trasmitir los sentimientos de los personajes.
A pesar de esto la sentí lenta por las largas escenas sin diálogos y que ponen varias veces, sé que esto es debido a la trama y puede ser necesario que estén ahí, pero creo que lo pudieron hacer de otra forma sin necesidad de que aparezcan tan seguido y también funcionaria.
En conclusión las escenas largas y repetitivas le quitan mucho a la buena historia y actuaciones.

Give it a go!
I have always been interested in anything to do with soulmates or past life. This drama truly portrayed the depth of it. All the actors were wonderful especially Ohm who played Dean. He truly portrayed the seriousness and the introvert side of his character really well. I loved how he could show how gentle and teasing he could be when he was with Pharm. The overall background story was super cute and equally heartbreaking. The other actors did an amazing job to portray how being gay in a family in the past was degraded and how much abuse they might have received from their family members. The 16th episode was a bit confusing for me to understand whilst putting me in Pharm's shoes because I don't know if he got possessed to become 'In' but I think their past selves live within them that is why perhaps. Personally I think that the ending was a bit rushed and that they could have shown more growth between the protagonists but it is what it is. One of my top five bl drama! I definitely recommend watching :)Esta resenha foi útil para você?

Esta serie me ha roto el corazón, lloré en absolutamente todos los capítulos, sea de tristeza o felicidad. Es una MARAVILLA, las actuaciones son impecables, especialmente la de Fluke hacia el final cuando amenaza con suicidarse como si fuese el espíritu de In hablando. Es muy triste cuando Pharm se ve en casa de su abuelo y recuerda todo mientras ve las fotos...Aunque cuando habla con la abuela de Dean/hermana de In da muchísima ternura, en general creo que el que más sufrió recordando fue Pharm/In.
La segunda pareja me gusta muchísimo y no puedo esperar a que estrenen su temporada.

Top notch but have the tissues ready
Having seen many BL's over the years, this rates as my all time favourite and is the only one I have rewatched fully a couple of times and every so often come back to to watch segments.No other BL can match the tear jerking emotions that has me bubbling every time whilst Fluke's performance as Pharm is outstanding with his acting in some scenes being the best I've ever seen in a BL.
The sound track really deserves praise for heightening the mood of the scenes, and if I had to nit pick at its weak point I'd say that sme scenes were a bit too drawn out and you can get a bit fed up hearing 'P'Dean' for a million times!

The story and the idea in general was good, there werent any parts where i got frustrated with the characters, felt like they were adding unnecessary drama or dragging the plot. However, the scenes and the dialogs in the current timeline felt very empty. While watching i constantly keep thinking "if they have done this scene this way it would be much more impactfull". I think the execution was not very good in general.
The side couple's story was just sprinkled randomly that i couldnt connect with them other than liking the characters. One time you see them they are just meeting, the other time you see them they are already very close friends that you think "maybe they were already friends before the series timeline?" yet there is nothing to confirm or deny that, the next time you see them they are already a couple but you are also not sure of it because they didnt show anything about it either? Rather than being a side couple, it felt more like there was a spin-off series about them already and you are just getting updates in this series.
LOVED Korn and In's chemistry and acting, especially Intouch's actor did such a killer job portraying the character. I am satisfied enough with just their parts that i cant regret watching the series. However i am really disappointed with Fluke's acting as it keep annoying me for the whole series. He had the same expression during the whole series whether he is annoyed, happy, shy.
I really liked the cinematography, color and lighting choices they made in may scenes.
Ost was average but background music choices were really, really good.

Personally, though, I found the story a bit too slow and I think it would’ve really benefited from being shorter, the usual 12 episodes and not 17. To me it felt as if almost all the scenes and all the pauses between the characters’ reactions were a beat too long, it felt slo-mo without the use of slo-mo.
My favorite pairing was the secondary - tertiary? - one, WinTeam, because their back-n-forth felt more lively than the main pairs’. And my favorite character was Dean, hands down. His guilt he felt over what he had done in his previous life, his devotion to Pharm… it was wonderful.
I definitely plan on following Ohm Thitiwat and Boun Noppanut’s further series, they were THE discoveries of this drama for me. I’m very curious about their future career!

Phew, just crying and more crying with that blank face of male lead...
Okay, I'll give an entirely honest review based on how I felt after watching this drama... I really dislike the lead couple. Especially Pharm... Such a good character, but this person was just not suitable for this role. On top of that, there was so much crying involved—crying while sleeping, crying while waking up, crying while eating, crying while walking, crying upon seeing the lover, crying upon seeing the mother, crying at deserts... Phew, just crying and more crying with that blank face... I only finished the drama because of one storyline; otherwise, the lead characters weren't worth watching the entire show. The second lead couple was good, and I really enjoyed the character of Manaow and her bonding with theme was also enjoyable. for me its 5/10Esta resenha foi útil para você?
Otherwise, I evaluate the processing, prepare for an even slower pace than "normally" slow are Thai series of this type, sometimes stilted, weepy, but that's probably how it should be and it's actually a flowing drama, when in some parts there is a gradual uncovering and understanding who they really are in the thicket of Pharm and Dean's tangled family generations and sometimes those who "believe" get chills down their spines, others who mainly look for faults remain cold.
I don't have much to complain about the acting, I rate the level of acting not by Meryl Streep, but by these series, some of them shined (surprisingly for me, Manaow, Koi's grandmother, Wina's relaxed speech and some others.). I can't even condemn Dean and Korn as actors, whose characters were written this way and they were both damn hot.
The music is fine, because if you have a longer series, you simply get used to the central theme of the songs. I also see a positive in the fact that this project creates a positive, realistic relationship with gays, despite the fact that there will be a tragedy at the beginning - it is treated with respect throughout the series and not as a farce. I RECOMMEND it to all sensitive souls.
Mám rád buddhismus i s jeho teorií převtělování, reinkarnace a ta pointa, příběh tohoto seriálu je pro mě nejzajímavější. Proto ze příběh 10, i když začíná "hrůzostrašně tragicky".
Jinak hodnotím zpracování, připravte se na ještě pomalejší tempo, než "normálně" pomalé jsou thajské seriály tohoto typu, někdy ucajdané, plačtivé, ale tak to má asi být a vlastně se jedná o plynoucí drama, kdy v některých dílech dochází k postupnému odkrývání a pochopení, kdo vlastně jsou v houští spletitých rodinných pokolení Pharm a Dean a někdy těm, kteří "věří", přejede mráz po zádech, ostatní, co hledají hlavně chyby, zůstanou chladní.
K herectví nemám co moc vytknout, hodnotím úrovní herectví ne Meryl Streep, ale těchto seriálů, někteří se zablýskli (kupodivu pro mě Manaow, babička Koi, uvolněný projev Wina a někteří další.). Odsuzovat herecky nemohu ani Deana a Korna, jejichž postavy takto byly napsány a oba byli zatraceně sexy.
Hudba fajn, totiž pokud máte delší seriál, tak si prostě na ústřední motiv písní zvyknete. Pozitivum vidím i v tom, že tento projekt vytváří kladný, realistický vztah ke gayům, navzdory tomu, že zde na začátku proběhne i tragédie - zachází se s ní po celou dobu série s úctou a ne jakou s fraškou. DOPORUČUJI všem citlivým dušičkám.

Romantic, sweet, angsty, just pure perfection wrapped up in a series
What I found the most interesting is that there are essentially 2 main couples. I had originally thought the past cpl would just be simple flashbacks, but the series actually shows the development of their whole relationship, and it was so endearing yet incredibly sad at the same time. I was crying buckets all the time for them.The main couple is just adorable, who doesn't love an ML who's loyal and graceful only to his bf, and MC who's just the cutest with the most adorable smile in the world!! I love the similarities between the past and current couple, the mirrors and links were executed perfectly. ML was the one being chased in the past life, but this time he was the one chasing MC, MC can be shy at times but also brave as a lion when he wants to. The cause-and-effects were done perfectly, especially the last episode really made me cry my heart out.
The overwhelming feeling whenever they remember their past lives, was really vivid, and I applaud the actors for their amazing performances. And sibling love really does transcend even time, the grandma scenes made me super emotional!! And I especially like how the parents aren't the typical antagonists (both the current and past life ones), we see how the past parents had actually loved their children, they didn't want this tragedy to happen.
Truly one of the most spectacular written BL series, there's the perfect amount of romance, that doesn't need to be shown through explicit scenes.
