Season2
My intuition says: there might be a sequel. The Clues. This is a Thai-Japanese co-production. In this series, the atmosphere is rooted in Thai culture. However, towards the end, the atmosphere shifts to Japanese culture. The Thai language - spoken by the main characters - is switched to Japanese. The action moves to Japan. (Similar situation to the series "Kiseki: Chapter 2" / "Season of Love in Shimane" and the films "Present Perfect" / "Still Present Perfect".) The story itself somehow remains unresolved. The two main actors (Hill & Junji / March & Kôji) work much better together from episode 7 onwards and eventually gradually achieve a truly wonderful chemistry - it would be a shame not to use this in the near future (although Mukai Kôji has another excellent partner in the BL film "(Love Song)", also a Thai-Japanese co-production from 2025 - Morisaki Win). There is drama - for sure - but the real drama could still come; I can even imagine how. For example, the camera lingers too much on that tall, handsome Japanese guy in episode 12; he could be the main antagonist in a possible love triangle...I would love to see the story continue. It's not a perfect BL, but it's a very comforting series, with good vibes and surprisingly skilled acting, full of emotions and mutual understanding. The crying scenes (Hill and Junji) - both the first and the last one - touched me quite a bit, which is rare, the last time it was like that when I watched "Love Sick (2024)" - when Phun asked Noh to be his boyfriend. Fluke and Poppy were good as usual, but Judo as Bas was a very pleasant surprise for me. If I had to describe this series in one word, it would be: SINCERITY. The relationship between Junji and Hill is so sincere that it turns into genuine warmth, deep hope and a beautiful sense of belonging through a fruitful mutual expression of true love. So, the next season could be crowned with a marriage - like many other Thai BL series lately - however, this time it won't be rushed, but justified by the blessing of experienced love, which started as love at first sight in Bangkok, will continue in Tokyo and end with a wedding in Thailand.
