Último Desejo do Cupido (2022)

Forget about the body swap and just enjoy!!!! That’s still Win with Korn!!!

Mix getting his period was hilarious. I don’t know why people hate this, actually I do it’s because it was still Lin who Korn was talking to and looking at the whole time, I was very bugged by that! I wished it was Win whom Korn kissed and hugged, but once you ignore that big factor you just enjoy it!! like just forget it because that’s still Win not Lin they just switched bodies! The mother was so selfish for doing that to them I do not forgo her!!! you all may have but I feel so bad! the way she wanted to marry off Lin and Korn when she knew her freaking son loved Korn and even urged them to split up and hate each other!!! that mother was asking for a slap!! yeah I said it, fight me! Anyways I loved it, I enjoyed Sassy Mix on his period so much that I wanted to hit Korn, like how dare he not feed hungry Win?? How dare he not feed our baby who is experiencing being on his period for the first time??????

Watch this of course to watch our 2 ML, Mix & Earth. As usual really like their chemistry.

Story about journey to overturn the karma & fixed relationship, between friends & family. For u who wonder, this one of the save one to watch. With no steamy scene, and only a little kiss scene in the end.

Sawin Warodom (Win) is like dynamite, he often get his emotion get the best of him. He constantly angry with anyone close to him and don't want to listen to anyone, include his mom & sister Lalin Warodom (Lin). Due to his relationship with his aunt & uncle, who he thought only want his family money, he becomes distrust to anyone outside his own family, that's mean his mom & Lin.

The problem with Thapakorn Chaiphitak (Korn) raise when Win's father left Korn part of their inheritance. Due to Korn very close to Win's dad in his last days, Win suspect Korn with insincere intentions toward his family money / business. So they have separated since that time.

Win & Korn met again when Lim & Win was in accident. Because of the accident, Win's soul move to Lin's body. The soul of Win's dad visit a monk & tell him how to undo the curse. How? To visit 4 temple and ask for holy / blessed water. And the instructions, Win / Lin has to go with Korn.

At first of course Win unwilling to do. But upon realizing what the monk said true, finally Win give in & decided to go with Korn. The journey bring them closer again & unravel all the hidden feeling in their heart.

But along the journey with Lin body, make Win also questioning, did Korn attention for him or Lin... And that days upon days make Win heart more and more unsettling with their relationship.

But don't worry all the questioning finally unraveled In the end. Their feeling for each other, the source of Win's anger & also the secret of Win's dad inheritance.

That's the brief explaination about this drama. Now part what I like & don't like about this drama.

What I like:
+ As usual the chemistry between Mix & Earth never missed. We can feel their feeling for each other from the very first ep
+ The journey. Win learn a lot from the journey. At the end he did learn how to control his emotion, how to let go his anger & also how to be truthful about his own feeling.
+ Win learn about woman body. Haha... I really wish the actor, Mix, can experience all the things woman have to endure when their on their period.

What I don't too like, or what i feel a little bit a miss:
- Win mad to Korn, but still he reveal himself to Korn. Haha... I mean when he wake up in the hospital, after Win did manage to drive away his mom, he reveal himself to Chanon (Non) & Korn. He not even try to chase Korn away & just blabbering about Win in Lin body. That's a little bit weird in my opinion. It's like u mad to someone but u still reveal one of most vulnerable thing about urself in front of that person.

Overall this quite good drama to watch.

Cupid, Please Wish It To Be Over

Watching the trailer, I thought I will get a balance of drama and romance with a good body-switching plot. However, the majority that I get is full of annoying childish tantrums from an immature character.

Mix plays Win, the unreasonable, childish, and full of animosity. The character literally annoys me throughout the drama. Earth plays Korn, though he is kind, but doesn’t have any balls to explain why he got the inheritance from Win’s father. If only they talked on the 3rd or 4th episode then this drama won’t be draggy as it is due to hot-cold treatment of Win to Korn throughout the show. Lin, Win’s sister is a breath of fresh air. She’s the very few likeable female character in a BL. My concern with her is she is powerless and helpless till the end. Despite that, I have to commend Janhae’s acting for delivering a dual role as Lin and Win.

Another part I’m distressed is that the Mother, Uncle, and Aunt didn’t get the karma they deserved. The Mom was forgiven easily despite the manipulation that she did of the will and forcing Lin and Korn with the engagement while gaslighting Win. This homophobic, plainly evil character deserve to get hit by a karma yet didn’t get it. Very disappointing. The Uncle and Aunt didn’t paid for their sins for the attempted murder, it wasn’t even revealed the horrible thing they did.

Cinematography of the drama is good. The locations where the series shot are exhilarating to the eyes. I wish hey cut some scenes where all they do is eat! One or two scenes of binge eating is enough, but almost every episode I get to see Win (or Lin) eat like a pig which makes me want to skip the scene due to repetitiveness. Music is okay but not exemplary.

There is no doubt that Earth and Mix are great actors, especially Mix. But this show is incomparable from their previous show 'A Tale Of A Thousand Stars'. The only area that this is better than 1000 Stars is that Earth eats Mix's face in the finale, which didn't happen in their previous drama.

You won’t enjoy this unless you are an Earth and Mix fan. I like both actors but the show, not that much. It has the potential but failed to get there.

Adoro questa serie!!

Allora partiamo dal fatto che precedentemente a questa mi sono vista a Tale of thousand stars e quindi adoravo già la chimica dei due protagonisti.
Ma qui devo ammettere che l'alchimia per me era alle stelle.
La trama nonostante fosse già vista in altrifilm oserie tv (non drama), posso dire che per questo BL sia stato abbastanza originale; inoltre penso che attorialmente parlando Mix(il protagonista nel corpo della sorella) sia stato eccezionale e penso che recitativamente parlando sia anche migiorato rispetto alla sua prima performance(anche se è stato molto bravo ugualmente).
L'unica pecca che possa attribuigli è che avrei voluto più scene romantiche per i due protagonisti (mi riferisco a quando si sono già scambiati l'anima i due fratello e sorella), invece che lasciarle per l'ultimo episodio.
Ma a parte questo la consiglio a tutti vivamente!!

It’s good but could’ve been better

This was a really good show that started off strong and had so much potential but it had some major issues that just held me back from giving it anything more than 7 stars.

Firstly I just didn't really like the plot that much. I mean I normally love body swap tropes, but this one was poorly made. Like they kissed when Win was still in Lin's body, I mean they used Mix to film that scene but still it just irked me quite a bit.

Second -mind you this is the biggest issue in my opinion- the mother! She couln't have been any more annoying. Like she created all that mess just to keep the both of them apart, but woman are you stupid? Korn has a quarter of the farm they will have to see one another eventually duh. And then she goes and makes her daughter marry him just so she can keep her son away from him. Like that entire engagement thing was just so unnecessary, and then the second they confess their love for each other she just goes and apologies for everything she's done. Really stupid.

And another issue, the uncle and the aunt, they were completely unnecessary. They did not add anything to the plot, we could've very well just omitted them without having any issues. Also i haaate Lin's personality, if there is such a thing that is. All she did was cry, beg her mom and brother to calm down, and smile every now and then. Also the relationship between Lin and Non was just so sudden, it was just so random, it literally spawned out of no where.

Also who the hell was the cupid, I'm clueless. Well other than that I liked it a lot. I loved both Earth's and Mix's characters, yes Win was a bit short tempered and acted like a child most of the time but I still loved them both.

Plot wise a tale of a thousand stars was much better, but honestly I hated earth in there and I also thought that earthmix had absolutely no chemistry what so ever, but after watching this one I get the hype! now I ship them too?

Well all in all this show had so much potential but all those little mistakes took it down, but Earthmix and Jan carried the entire thing with their beautiful acting and great chemistry (Jan not included in that) well yeah but I can say that I really liked it.

I know that I was being a jerk of this series lol

I watched first episode on the first week of April but I just finished today lol. The story of this series made me bored at first, I was even thinking about dropping this series, then I got nothing to watch so I decided to resumed this show, there were 6 episodes left at that time (I know, its a lot, lol). Swap-bodies is actually one of the "common" genres in bl drama, that's why the first 3 episodes made me decide to take a break for a moment (actually 3 months lol).

Another reason is, I'm not a MixEarth's fan. lol
Those two handsome actors are the combination that I am least waiting for (after OffGun lol). However, I have to admit that after watching several Earth series, his appearance in this series is my most favorite one. Contrary to 1000 stars, I don't really like Mix's performance here. There are many scenes that I think he pretty seems redundant, even for people who don't like Earth, his appearance on this series really helps their chemistry.

The reason why I was able to finish this series (finally), is because the last three episodes were really something that I've never expected. I had a thought about the family's conflict that disappeared in episodes 8 and 9, and turns out that they save "the conflict" at the finale.

And yes, thank you for those who have given positive (but not excessive) reviews for this series, which has influenced me (a lot) to give this series a chance.

a rather unexpected delight despite a shaky script

I'm working my way through every EarthMix title, and I wasn't so sure about this one going in! The plot sounded a little slapdash and I wasn't quite interested in the realities of body-swapping... so I'd been avoiding it. While most of my concerns were at least a *little* valid, I generally found this series to be a much stronger work than I anticipated. The characters are charming, the actors shine, the plot is compelling and fun, and the pacing wallows much less than some of their heavier series. I found myself watching this much faster than I intended and laughing a lot along the way.

-The Full Review-

STORY:
Unfortunately, the story is the weakest aspect of this series (a rather unusual circumstance for EarthMix, who tend to deliver complex, realistic plots and characters). There is, honestly, almost no real thought put into the circumstances of the body-swap, leading to some slightly stilted and unsatisfyingly flat conflict around the edges. I wish that there had been a bit more care in developing a conflict that would drive such close friends so far apart. That said, the emotional connection between these characters was strong as ever, and Win and Korn's struggle to communicate once they were on their journey was plenty compelling enough to make up the difference.
My only other gripe with the story is that it didn't quite take it's magical premise far enough. Despite incredibly able actors, most of the utility of the body-swap fell to surface level gender jokes. While these are done very well, it is disappointing to see the swapping mechanic fall to the wayside in more emotional scenes, despite being central to the miscommunication. I would have liked to see them explore this more to truly live up to the full potential.

ACTING:
Wow. I am already a fan of Earth and Mix (obviously) and had enjoyed Jan a lot in Cherry Magic TH... but this was truly something else. I have to commend Mix and Jan for their success in building two characters together--it is not an easy task to do and they performed it so well. I have already complained at length, but I wish I would have gotten to see *more.* Jan does such a phenomenal job in matching Mix's high energy and crass body language for Win, meanwhile Mix does an excellent job of holding himself and his voice softly for the scant few minutes he's allowed to play Lin. I am never confused about who is who, and the emotions of these characters travel easily between actors and swaps.

PRODUCTION:
I really have to hand it to the costumes department here. The colors and fabrics are perfectly chosen, creating a bright and slightly unreal world, while still grounding the characters in their professions and personality. As pieces, Korn's jacket and Win's bag easily became recognizable touch stones. Korn's car, the Katin plush, and the bottles of holy water also brought a similar fun stylized-realism that worked with the fantasy plot. It was really a beautiful and bright show to watch.

In all, I really enjoyed this work and would recommend it! It isn't my top title from these actors, but it is a beloved edition to their filmography and one that I know I will reach for again when I need a smile.

SUPER CUTE!!!

Honestly didn’t know what I was expecting when I started this show but it wasn’t what is actually shown, first off I want to recognize how amazing the acting is, like seriously Lin acting as Win and Win acting as Lin, they were both so good at it that it felt like they actually switched bodies. And the scene where the mom is crying in episode 10 is so realistic it actually made me feel so sad because her emotions felt real. So props to the actors they did an amazing job! Second, the chemistry was amazing, this isn’t a show where there’s a lot of kiss scenes or anything and normally I like kiss scenes or stuff in that genre but this show did an amazing job at keeping me entertained and also giving me the chemistry needed to make my heart race. And the chances we did get to see kiss scenes they were amazing!! The story is super cute and soft, nothing too out there but also perfect enough to make those 10 episodes go by in a blink of an eye. I want to rate this an 8.8/10 but it only lets me rate 8.5 or 9, imo it’s not 9 worthy because again its not an extraordinary story, it’s simple but super well made! If you’re looking for something soft and cute to watch and also a quick watch since it has 10 episodes then this is just for you. I would definitely recommend, mainly because of the 10 episodes, and the fact that each episode is like 40+ min, I seriously hate when shows are longer than they should be and also lengthy on minutes of the episodes, so the fact that this show is simple, cute, soft and short wins my heart.

A story that is uneven

This BL series is all over the map, literally. It centered yet again around soul-swapping which is close to becoming a trope. It is also filled with a bunch of down-right awful people. Some even malicious and bordering on murderous. There is also a saint or two and at least one abuser who then sees the errors of his ways. The story is quiet but uneven and becomes a bit cliché. It has some good moments of self-discovery though. The one other thing that was exacerbating was the unnecessary need to make communication so obtuse. Why can't you say what you mean? Entertaining enough overall though.

Better than I thought

I'll be honest I was gonna skip this one after being disappointed by the initial trailer because I just have a very deep hatred for the whole body swap trope. But I am a sucker for Earth and Mixx's chemistry and I was bored so started watching this on a whim and honestly I am pleasantly surprised.

Don't get me wrong, I still don't consider this a great drama by any stretch but it was a fun watching experience. They executed the body swap plotline quite well. If any drama wants to explore that particular trope, I feel this is probably the best direction they can take.

A major reason I enjoyed watching this was Earth and Mixx. The way they were able to convey so much yearning and longing for each other throughout the show was so beautiful. Childhood friends to lovers is one of my favourite tropes, so maybe that's why their storyline felt more special but I think we can all agree that their chemistry is amazing.

Moreover, I really appreciate the various facets of Thai culture that they showed us. From the cuisine to the scenery to the rural urban juxtaposition, it was all perfect. Also, Win's career and the backdrop of cattle farming is definitely unique and never really delved before in a bl.

However, this drama is riddled with flaws the worst of which was how nonsensical some of the plot points and conflicts were. The initial conflict that kickstarts the whole story was ridiculous enough on it's own but the writers managed to make it even more ridiculous in the last two episodes. You definitely need to leave aside common sense while watching.
Also Win's character was something else entirely. Rude, obnoxious and with an ego bigger than his brain, it really made you wonder what Korn (who was portrayed as a little too perfect and boring imo) really saw in him. But I'd be remiss not to mention that Win's antics made the show much more entertaining than it would have been otherwise and it made it eventual character development that much more worth it.

So does this drama make me change my stance on the body swap trope? Definitely not, that trope can die and I wouldn't bat an eye lol. But it did made me acknowledge that perhaps I shouldn't be so quick to jump on conclusions based solely on trailers.
