The Sign (2023)

AN UNDERRATED GEM!

I was so excited about this drama from the moment they dropped the trailer and they truly did not disappoint me! It has absolutely everything one would need to make a good series - an interestingly new plot, great acting, outstanding chemistry, beautiful cinematography and perfect music. The camaraderie between the cast both on and off screen is so good which is why it makes the show even more fun to watch. And the way they are showing us Thai culture - the history, traditions, beliefs and mythology - is just so amazing and informative. Every Saturday they go beyond my expectations!

P.S. I don't usually write reviews but for this one, I just had to lol :p Please go watch it on Idol Factory's YouTube channel!

Thai culture in BL's

When we you see the poster it seems like action thriller something like that but director driven us into thailand culture world which makes plot interesting as well as engaging too. If this series continues to keep up this pace then it tops the charts at 2024 too. There is no cringe events and unwanted skinship but there are quite few naked especially bathroom scenes. We need more like this plots , i love until we meet again similar one like this but it is unique which we never often see in bl's but this series is very unique as well as showing us the history or their are clans of both powerful creatures like garuda and nagas. Even i love the VFX or CGI part too. The writer manages this plot very well even though it is a novel they made it beautiful for the viewers to watch it. Hatsoff for their dedication in each frame the hard work paid off really well. It is highly recommended one.

Story

Couldn't wait to watch this series as it wasn't the usual trope we are used to seeing but it didn't live up to the hype. The two main actors playing Phaya and Tharn
gelled well together and were believable lovers but you need more than pretty boys to make a series work and it fell at the first hurdle for me. The story was strange especially when Phaya had to dress in an outfit which was awful and changed into a winged bird and Tharn
being classed as a woman he fell in love with and tharns doctor being the evil one.Just weird. Loved the actors Billy and babe and I hope they get together again in a BL preferably 😂.Loved the theme song by Shen Li.His voice is perfect..

Perfection doesn't exist, but The Sign could be the drama of the year

It's been a while since the last time I binged watched a BL drama, The Sign got me hooked to the point I was walking to school watching it.
The plot is intriguing and the fantasy element is well-mixed with the real-life plot, resulting in a stunning BL where finally you have more to watch than skin (but I have to admit: what a STUNNING cast!). I feel like Bl dramas these days plays a lot with the Nc scenes and it bores me to death when this happen. To those who enjoy this kind of stuff, you won't be disappointed by the tension and the hottness of the nc scenes. Those who, like me, don't really like the obsession with Nc scenes, you won't be disappointed either since it's all so loving and well acted that it looks WAY MORE than just a streamy scene.
This topic leads to another key point of the show: the leads actor are just crazy good. Their chemistry is out of this world. Phaya's actor did a crazy good job potraing the character: I could feel his panic, his love, his worry. Just crazy. Less convincing, to me, has been Tharn's actor - maybe it was the character, but his acting was a lil bit stiff often wearing the same face. But that sharp mask just melts during the love scenes - sometimes in his eyes there ware so many fellings I cried.
The rest of the cast did an amazing job too: I loved Yai's character and the playfullness between Kheem and his "Baby". The supporting actors contribute with fun backstories, loads of affection and deepness to the storyline. I just love them so much.

If I have to find a flaws, I'd talk about the lack of evolution for the Doctor's character. His decision in the last episode was rushed and too kind of him for what we had seen in the previous episodes. I wished they solved the issues differently, or just gave him more space to grow. Kudos to the actor, though, he's AMAZING.

Great story that failed in the end

The basics of the story are that these special forces guys (two of them) have intertwined past lives and a villain who will stop at nothing to keep them apart. Except he didn't. Spoiler: I mean, the villain literally stopped, gave up, realized that he lost and threw in the towel, but only after causing trouble and threatening to kill everyone to force Tharn to be with him. The acting was pretty good and I was very excited about the prospect of a special investigative unit, but none of that really played out correctly. There was so much potential, but nothing came of it. I mean, it only served as the backdrop for the main love story, without adding much other than the action sequences which were a little bit too scripted and badly done to be interesting. I think they threw in a bunch of pixelated male backsides just to add shock value, but all that did was make me laugh. Good to have some comedy. They had so many subplots, with no direction and no conclusion, just subplots that never gained traction. Which meant as a special investigative unit, they never really added value to the overall story. Then I waited three weeks for the free version of episode 12 just to have the overall plot with the big bad guy decide he's not bad and all's well that ends well, and the lovers have a happily ever after ... well it was just a let down. I didn't hate it, but I wouldn't watch it again and the last episode was a disappointment. Overall: story was lacking, acting was good minus the action scenes, music didn't detract, but disappointing ending.

TheSign is a game changer in Thai BL

The Sign is an action - romance - mystery - fantasy BL with supernatural elements and reincarnation trope. It screams BUDGET. God just after watching the first episode I am hooked. This story is so out of box, a fresh air for BL lovers. Main leads have insane intimate natural chemistry, action scenes are well choreographed, music is authentic, BGM is on point, cinematography is aesthetic and wild.
It's a treat for BL lovers. Must watch series

kesan pertama nonton series "the sign"

Menurutku series ini sangat bagus ya, terutama dari latar belakang ceritanya. Sangat jarang gt, BL yang mengangkat cerita seperti ini apalagi dengan para karakter "polisi". Walaupun punya inti masalah (konflik) yang hampir sama dengan series "manner of death" tapi series ini punya keunikannya sendiri. Kesan pertama di episode pertama bagian satu memang agak mengecewakan, namun semua itu akan terobati ketika sudah memasuki episode pertama bagian kedua, jika anda menonton hingga selesai - anda akan mengetahui betapa menariknya series ini. Episode dua semakin menguatkan cerita, apalagi di episode kali ini kita mulai mengenal para tokoh ; yang utama sebelum menonton series ini adalah "kenali semua karakternya" ; jika kalian sudah melakukan itu, kalian akan menikmati series ini dengan sangat baik. Dari segi dialog mungkin agak kurang mudah difahami ya, dari segi scene menurutku sangat tertata dengan baik. Kekuatan dari series ini menurutku dari segi "cerita" dan "latar belakang karakter" - beberapa nuansa komedi dan cubitan romantis sering terasa di series ini, bersiaplah! haha

It’s got a plot

Honestly, it’s enjoyable. It doesn’t revolve completely around two characters forking, there’s a pretty solid plot that makes sense, and the leads have a lot of chemistry.

No doubt, a lot of people find Pit Babe to be more interesting, but in a way this one feels more adult to me. Sure, there’s a reincarnation storyline that they managed to also wrap into a “they knew each other as children” plot line, but I didn’t find myself skipping a lot and with a lot of these Thai dramas a ton of it fills like filler just so you can see the two main characters bone.

I don’t know, it’s nice to see something that doesn’t hinge entirely on the sexual relationship between two men, and it actually throws danger at them.

What more can you ask for?
