First Thought: Transcending The Game
Story: The story was so good! I usually don’t enjoy horror and scary things. I do think the horror was exaggerated in the reviews I saw of this show. Not too many jump scares or anything like that. The villain was actually amazing. Even at the end, I was thinking, if he wasn’t born of midnight, then what? Then she literally dropped his birth timestamp. LOL. I did not like Khem. No sense of urgency, common sense, or survival skills. That is exactly what a flawed human character should make you feel. If anything, I live for the plot and fleshed-out storylines way more than the romance aspect. I have no idea why Peem and Khem truly loved each other other than the past-life connection.
Acting: 100/10!!!! Everyone did a great job, and the acting was truly phenomenal. With standouts like Green, the children that played Thong and Ek, and Ohm (Khaekhai). So many of my family members would walk by and get sucked into the show (and they are “foreign” show haters).
Music: 10/10 music! It really makes you feel things. มนตรา (Mantra) [From "เขมจิราต้องรอด"] by KENG HARIT is so amazing. I haven’t enjoyed an OST song like this since “Why Don’t You Stay” by Jeff Satur.
Overall:….. Top five dramas I’ve watched (not in my top BL though because I really don’t find it romantic).
