Watch this only if you have nothing else to watch.

Watch this BL only if you have nothing else to watch. This one is a strict one time watch with one finger firmly placed on the skip button throughout. I think the Seme's acting or appearance might have won my over or the reincarnation theme made me curious - otherwise I have no clue why I kept watching this. Seriously - i think it's because i had nothing else to watch (until i watched a lovely toxic 2 parter from Gloomy Salad (2010) ep13 & 14)

The main problem w Until We Meet again is the couple gets together way too quick, i usually like a slow burn - i think everybody does - watch a relationship develop, i prefer a will they-won't they pattern - but here they skip the burn & it's just a waiting game for the reincarnation story to come full circle in the end. So whoever wrote this script or novel, I don't know why they thought people would keep turning the pages. Or maybe this is poorly adapted?

Finally, when it does reach that full circle point, it isn't a rewarding moment becuase there there weren't really any hurdles in this story at all - so storywise, there's not much a story here ... which is why kept skipping ... it's just passing time till the end. All this has is a reincarnation theme that is used to explain their unexplainable attraction, but it's otherwise not used to its full potential cuz trust me reincarnation is a popular theme is south asain movies, this didn't even come close.

Some other issues I had was the ukke isn't attractive but the Seme's looks do grow on u.
Also, the ukke's character is s just perfect at everything, his personality is too pleasantly perfect with a faux wide smile fixed on his face- it's too flat & unreal - i don't see the point of it. Being a good cook is not a character trait imo. Add to that the ukke cries a lot in this, and I mean a lot and it's unintentionally comedic, and they cue in this romantic track whenever he's having all these feels - i don't mind cheesiness but i was finding it legit funny
