Off the charts chemistry of GeminiFourth
You’ll see the massive growth of GeminiFourth in terms of acting. You’ll understand why they’re on top of their generation. The freaking tension between the characters and how they communicate with just eyes and how GeminiFourth deliver!! Phenomenal!!! Every scene gives a whole different type of emotion!! Absolute Masterpiece 💯👏Was this review helpful to you?
pure queer cinema!!
this series deserves so much recognition for everything from the story telling to the acting itself!!the dialogue is so meticulous, the small details in the background & the religious symbolism in every scene is impeccable and the pure, innocent love story of these two gentle souls is BEYOND memorable.
it's just so cinematic and incredibly well executed, everyone that was involved should be very proud of themselves and I hope they get all of the awards they deserve for such an incredible story!! 💖

The plot was way better than the actual series
The trailer of the plot made me want to see this series but not at the actual series they can have it back it Is awkward I'm not really seeing much of a real bl storyline in my book and nc scenes are not great and are cut. in my opinion. where is this story going The only part of the story that is really understanding is that he's fighting with his sexuality other than that it really ain't making sense. need more of an actual storyline and not one that's going right and left at one time. and that's just my opinionWas this review helpful to you?
the boys didn't go to heaven, but they're happy :")
where do i even start???i feel this series will speak to every queer kid out there who realised something about themselves after meeting that one friend.
it hurts in the most gut wrenching way. you feel like stepping inside the screen to hug both tanrak and barth.
for such a heavy and vigilant topic, the series was handled really well. from the commentary, the progression, the characters and the dialogues.
i love how there was no "villian" because really in such a story that can easily happen irl.. there's no "villian", just opposing factors.
gemini fourth are such amazing actors.. their chemistry is JUST TOOO GOOD!!! you feel every sigh, every look, every touch, and every heavy breath (yes. that scene.)
2 years wait for 6 episodes was definitely worth it
P'Aof has created a beautiful beautiful series, once again!
PS. Rewatch value is 7.5 because i need to have the mental strength to rewatch it 😭

Hands down one of the most raw and beautiful drama ever!!
Artistic and beautiful!That’s what this drama is, p’Aof is a genius but the fact that this drama comes from the resemblance of his own past makes it hauntingly beautiful.. the cinematography, the writing, the insinuations, the beautiful way of showing one’s inner battle while never villainizing any religion or faith itself was the best part..
And now to my Barth tanrak, what was that? How did two 21 year old boys gave such beautiful and raw performance? My gemfot, knowing their personalities, the fact that they pulled Barth and tanrak deserves its own recognition, absolutely beautiful! I can write a whole essay and even that wud not be enough to compile what these boys made me feel in these 6 weeks… I am mesmerized, sad and proud and all sort of emotional at the same time. Also, the ost, again gemfot, how are y’all so talented? I am borderline jealous coz wdym y’all get to be visual kings, pro level actors and equally amazing singers at the same time while we … just exist 😑
Anyways, I wanna thank my 2025 self who started re watching BL and my 2026 self for somehow falling into this sao yi fandom rabbit hole and got to know abt this drama, yearn for it, witness it being filmed, watch and now complete this masterpiece..

This series feels so close and familiar because it reflects a reality that exists all around us
I have so many things I want to say about this series, but I think the first thing I want to say is thank you so much to P'Aof and GeminiFourth for creating such a gift for everyone who has struggled with their beliefs and sexuality. From the title and synopsis, people might think it's just another doomed BL with a tragic ending, but trust me, TTH is an absolute masterpiece.The story shines because Barth and Tanrak are the true heart of it. They are never overshadowed. Instead, the series is entirely about them as individuals, each carrying their own pain.
With Tanrak, you can truly feel how hollow he is. His only purpose in life is to reunite with his parents in heaven. His dreams and his life have never really been for himself. The faith he holds onto so tightly and his dream of becoming a priest are the only paths he believes will lead him back to heaven.
As for Barth, he was raised in a Catholic family and taught never to question the rigid system, even though he witnessed how that very system and those beliefs continued to hurt the people he loved, including himself. Eventually, he became angry with both those beliefs and with God because the help he prayed for every day, and the God he had been taught about all his life, never seemed to be there when he truly needed Him.
Even though this series is only six episodes long, the story is incredibly clear and flows so naturally. You can feel the tension, the fear, the anxiety, the longing, the vulnerability, the desperation, and the love. Kudos to Gemini and Fourth especially for bringing these characters to life so beautifully that I ended up crying for both of them every episodes.
This series taught me so much about humanity, society, and faith. It also made me question so many things about myself and the world around me. And the ending? Chef's kiss. Tanrak doesn't have to choose. He can continue loving God and loving the boy he loves at the same time.
There are no purely bad people in this series, nor are there purely good ones. They are all simply human. I think that is the most beautiful interpretation of the idea that God is love. I read somewhere in Tw and cant help to write it here, TTH can be the classic tragic story about religion and sexuality, but no this series choose to be the light, the hope, the love and the faith. And personaly i think its also realistic and human.
Overall, this series is now my number one!
To end this review with my favorite quote from the series :
"Remember, you can love God and love yourself at the same time."

Best best best
I've only watched three episodes thus far, but I strongly believe this might just be the best BL release of 2026. I'm completely hooked.To me, Ticket to Heaven feels like the return of GeminiFourth since Love in the Moonlight. I say this because the emotional scenes reminded me so much of that series. It was the first BL I ever watched them in, and they left a lasting impression on me. Since then, I've always associated them with stories that know how to balance tenderness with emotional depth.Once again, Gemini and Fourth prove why they are such a beloved pairing. Their chemistry is effortless and natural, making every interaction feel genuine and heartfelt. Their visuals are stunning, but what truly stands out is the way they deliver the script. Every line feels intentional, and whether the scene is playful, romantic, or heartbreaking, they capture your attention completely.
The emotional moments have been the highlight for me. You can feel the characters' pain, vulnerability, confusion, and affection through their performances. Nothing feels exaggerated or forced. Instead, it feels authentic, which makes it easy to become emotionally invested in their journey.
Three episodes in, and I'm already counting down the days until the next one. That's how captivating this series has been. If it continues at this pace and maintains the quality of its storytelling and performances, Ticket to Heaven could easily go down as one of the standout BL dramas of 2026.
For now, I'm all in. I'm hooked, emotionally invested, and excited to see where this story takes us. If the remaining episodes are anything like the first three, Ticket to Heaven may very well become one of my favourite BL series of all time.

Makes you feel emotions in a way that it consumes your whole mind
Story - Intriguing and Heartbreaking - A Christian boy in a seminary whose never had any family and decides to become a priest falls for another boy who lost faith because of the pain he had been through.- Faith, love , not being able to live your life, being misunderstood, lonely - it cuts you in one way or another
Acting - Extraordinary. GeminiFourth make you feel and I mean it when I say it, they make you feel what they are feeling - the struggles, the pain and the love. One look at each other and it's over. The tension is palpable and you can feel the love through the screen.
Direction/Sound - The story is very nuanced from the detailed acting to the direction, camera work and sound. They immerse you in. Every dialogue, every shot has a purpose, it has devastating amounts of symbolisms that takes your breath away when watching.
As a viewer, it consumes your every thought, even the happy moments can break your heart for them because of how much you start caring for these characters

WORTH THE WAIT. HIGHLY RECOMMENDING
Everything about this series is very good. The setting, the plot, characters, ost, acting and everything is so perfect. You can feel what the characters are going through with their excellent acting. Acting is so good even we can ourselves feel what they are going through. I'm so in love with the OST and the special thing is Barth's song is called Tanrak. I really love this ❤️🩹.Was this review helpful to you?
the joy of young love
The joy of young is at every glance, movement and breath and in the courage to express them to the one you love. It is the incomprehensible happiness of knowing that the person you love is also in love with you. Gemini and Fourth encapsulate the the whole gamut of emotions in a very subtle way. Good acting ! And the kiss is something to rewind over and over again. From the awkward first kiss in The School President to the more daring one here in Ticket to Heaven, Gemini and Fourth had shown us all how they evolved into mature performers. Their chemistry is still one of the best in the bl industry. The symbolism too in this episode can be seen in the use of rain and lights and shadows and the doors opening and closing which point to their feelings and turmoil and ultimately their freedom to love each other!Was this review helpful to you?
FOURTH THE ACTOR THAT YOU ARE
Fourth is such an incredible actor. His acting, expressions, and gestures were everything. I’ll keep watching this series until the very end just to see how far he goes in becoming Tanrak. Great job, Fourth! :)I’d give the main OST a 10/10, especially the opening part, and I’m also looking forward to Fourth’s OST. Maybe I’ll change my score once Fourth’s OST is release~
