Story: I loved the novel version more. In the lakorn adaptation, the male lead became softer than in the novel (Plerng, Uthai, and Rawi all got softened), and his powers should have been much stronger than the villains' (Boom and Poh's characters), but in the lakorn, he only just starts learning how to use them. They also made Pakboon and Tinnaree less evil, yet Pakboon never apologized to Plerng for what she did (unlike in the novel). On top of that, they killed off several characters who survived in the book, just to serve the "nine people mystery" plot—which I think could have been handled much better. The only change I liked was that the leads work together more in the modern timeline (though I still wish there were even more scenes). Overall, the story remains interesting thanks to the original novel's content, but I still prefer the book.

Acting: I love the James/Taew pairing, so it's not hard to feel their chemistry even with the limited sweet/intimate scenes. The biggest gift this lakorn gave me was an open-mouth kiss from James and Taew (the first and only one from both of them). The other cast members also did a good job in their respective roles.

CGI: Much better than in other lakorns.

OST: Not outstanding, but still has some memorable tracks.

Overall: If I set aside the high expectations I had from reading the novel, it's still a nice lakorn.
