Plot-wise, it has a really good story and if you're looking for some heaviness an depth in terms of love and commitment you'll be able to find it here, though I found the duration of this drama a little dragging in the latter part of the series. The acting skills of the characters are on point and really commendable as they've managed to make the viewers feel the pain, joy and love. The side couple are really cute and it makes the series a little lighter and it balances out the drama.

Probably the most over-rated BL of all time.
I started watching it because of all the hype and ratings but Jesus Christ was it boring! I found the chemistry between the actors very average. The acting was above average. I watched 11 episodes but after that I was soo bored i had to drop it. The only thing about this BL is that it has a comparatively unique storyline. But again that's about it. I still don't understand why it is liked so much to be honest cause there are so many better BLs.However, I suppose, when it came out people found it different from others at that time and hence, found it soo good. But if you're watching it now then I don't think you'll find it that good.
So, i would recommend you to watch other BLs and not waste your time on this. Cause all the episodes are extremely repetitive, slow and boring.

Interesting story
Interesting and different story compared to other BL's I have watched.But the the main lead (Pharm's) acting was really really bad. This show would have been so much better if someone else did the acting instead of Pharm. He was cute yeah but as a couple with Dean, there are no proper chemistry. The kisses were super awkward and it was seen clearly seen in his acting. The second couple kept me watching this show rather than main couple. The flashback couple had so much chemistry. Wish the flaskback couple was main couple.

WORTH WATCHING❤️
I usually don't write reviews but I'll do it for this one. This is one of the best series I've seen even though it's not finished yet. The story is as beautiful as it is sad (Korn and In's tragic end) and the actors make it even more memorable. They have the chemistry and that makes the series even more intriguing. The music fits it perfectly as well and I'm so happy they made a music video so we can all enjoy it and appreciate Sompob's beautiful voice. I fell in love with this series after the first episode and I don't regret a minute spent to watch it. Looking forward to the new episodes????Was this review helpful to you?

Literally I’m a bit in shock because I thought it will be “another sweet and loving series”, but definitely I am wrong.
What Kon and In have lived 30 years ago about accepting, unfortunately in many countries are still the same. For example, I’m from Serbia and in my country is forbidden to be gay or open minded about that. A lot of abuse, abandonment and self-killing is still present.
There are no many of us who are living life in the way we want, but watching these kind of series it could change some peoples mind.
I’m really happy that I could find Thai series and learn a lot about love and romance. I still believe I will find it one day....
Anyway, I will continue to watch another episode and who knows...maybe I will repeat all 17 episodes ☺️
And to all who will start watching this series: BELIVE IN YOURSELF AND EXPECT UNEXPECTING!!

The romance isn’t rushed, there’s a perfect amount of fluff to the point where it’s not considered boring.
They also know when to take time away from the romance and get to the more serious aspects of real life problems and the whole event which triggered this story in the first place.
Although the show isn’t finished yet, I feel like I have to express how nice it is, the story has me genuinely intrigued and connected with it. The music in the beginning Ep.1 was misplaced in my opinion, but onwards it gets better. The acting can obviously get cringey at times, but the actors fit their rolls nicely and you can see that throughout the progression of the show. I believe this will be a nice drama for many people.

Why I dropped a show with a good story
Watching BL shows and dropping BL shows I've figured out what is first and most important thing to me.The acting and the chemistry between the lead characters.
You can tell in the way they touch each other in scenes and the looks in their eyes. So far, there are only three pairs of actors where I can say with no doubt that they make the love feel real between the characters (see my "good pda" list).
The actors don't have to be perfect, but I need a significant amount of moments where the love feels real. The initial interactions can still be awkward because it makes sense getting familiar with a person. But I want to be able to feel the want from both characters' emotions. I've only completed 10 shows, but everything I've given good rating has the kind of acting and chemistry I'm looking for.
I wanted to like this show. The premise is amazing and the writing is good. The music for the important moments is very moving. The problem is that both the past life couple and the present life couple, the love didn't feel real. It felt like acting. And maybe my criteria is harder to meet than I realize. But more than 50% of the shows I've watched have the acting I'm looking for.
I know this is a highly regarded series, but it misses the most important thing I'm looking for: the comfortability between actors.

No, the main roles are completely different level. Both the main couple boys sadly cannot measure up to the "flashback couple" we see right in the beginning of the series. The two end up tragically in a blatant stupid scene, when they shoot their brains out while both their fathers are only helplessly watching, but then the unexplicably good cast (one of fathers is portrayed by Nirut Sirijanya! where did Wabi Sabi get Nirut Sirijanya?) is gone and for the rest of the series we are supposed to watch someone... well, else. The only big role for a female is a loud, chubby and annoying girl, to remind us we are to firmly concentrate on boys, here. Mean Phiravich is in insignificant, small side-role. Considering that is how they used the most attractive guy they had on the whole cast... Most viewers praised the second couple. Shall they save this?
So far, I keep watching to give this a chance. There are still scenes with the "old couple", which I skip by now, though. I can watch either one version or the other. And if I am to give chance to the "new couple", I have to quit watching the old one. And I honestly want to see how much there is to this couple if we don't count the past life destiny thing.
Also, there should be the 'WinTeam' couple to watch, and I am all for it, if they should be free of any "reincarnated lovers" cr*p. But, as the secondary couple, they have less screentime: so I'll have to wait for it...
Episode 4, Mean Phiravich's character expresses his interest in one of the boys. Whoops! Tricky. I'm sure I am now not alone who'd just ride on this wave and watch another 'Love By Chance 2' here. Who cares about the other boy, now? He can't beat Mean Phiravich.
Epi 6: Scenes with the previous life couple KEEP coming. Why?? The cast is SO much better. It's more interesting because they live in late 80's when being gay is not so much in fashion. But, as their scenes are only random flashbacks, this show's creators did not have to do the whole "period" drama properly. Instead, these scenes help the contemporary lame duo - threatened by the presence of Mean Phiravich - to have at least some chemistry, thanks to the audience already knowing their tragic love past story and therefore feeling for the characters even before they earned it. See, on both accounts, this show's creators made their job easier for themselves. So, my guess is we'll watch this half-and-half for the rest of the series...
Also this episode, for the first time I noticed WinTeam interacting a bit. There is also Plan Rathavit in his little guest role and it's SO cute you wish to keep him & the main cast to p**s off:) But they stay there, virtually haunted by the CONSTANT flashbacks. I smirked thinking whether people would be able to actually live their normal life, if everyone was able to remember their past lives so readily.
Epi 7, the boys said to each other that they remember one another from the past life and that they found each other now. The way I see it, it could be the end of this story... I feel no need to weep about it for 10 more episodes. Perhaps next role of Mean Phiravich will finally be in something good?

Until We Meet Again - A Masterpiece of Emotion and Chemistry
"Until We Meet Again" is a series that beautifully weaves together an emotional and compelling storyline with outstanding performances and top-tier chemistry between its on-screen partners. This show has truly set a high bar for romance dramas.The storyline is nothing short of amazing. It follows the poignant tale of lovers whose lives were tragically cut short because their families refused to accept their relationship. This narrative is both heart-wrenching and deeply moving, as it explores themes of love, loss, and reincarnation with a sensitivity that resonates profoundly with the audience. The way the series handles such heavy themes is commendable, making it a gripping watch from start to finish.
The acting in "Until We Meet Again" is superb. Ohm and Fluke deliver performances that are raw and genuine, bringing their characters to life in a way that makes you feel every joy and sorrow they experience. Similarly, Boun and Prem's portrayals are equally compelling, adding depth to the overall story. Their chemistry is top tier, making every interaction feel authentic and heartfelt. The bonds between these on-screen partners are palpable, elevating the emotional stakes of the series.
One cannot overlook the fantastic OST that accompanies this series. The music is so good that it seamlessly enhances the emotional beats of the story. It's no surprise that I've added these tracks to my playlist. The OST perfectly complements the narrative, making the viewing experience even more immersive.
I've rewatched "Until We Meet Again" more than six times, and each viewing is as captivating as the first. The series’ ability to evoke such a strong emotional response and maintain its impact through multiple viewings is a testament to its quality.
In conclusion, "Until We Meet Again" is a masterpiece that excels in storytelling, acting, and music. The chemistry between OhmFluke and BounPrem, combined with the moving narrative and exceptional OST, makes this series a must-watch. It's a show that stays with you long after the credits roll, and one that I will undoubtedly continue to revisit.
