The show started off alright and I got into watching it. The idea for the plot was good and I was originally drawn in by Earth Katsamonat's acting after seeing a short twitter compilation. I really liked the chemistry and acting Earth and Kao's (Nine Dechaphatthanakun) representation of Korn and Intouch. Unforutnely they didn't get much screen time and we were stuck with most of the story being the plot between Dean and Pharm.

In reverse of Studio Wabi Sabi's other longer web drama Love By Chance, I found the main plot of this show almost unbearable. The chemistry between Fluke and Ohm was almost non existent. I don't know if they were instructed to act that awkward or if they really didn't have chemistry, but it was really not enjoyable. They have that bland BL couple vibe where one is the strong cool one and the other is a weak flower who cooks. It made it really hard for me to enjoy the biggest part of the show because I didn't really want to root for the main couple. Also, the insta-love that they had was boring and bland! I understand they had a "connection" because of the reincarnation but it was so unbelievable.

I found that the side plot of this show was the best part of the whole thing. The dynamic between Team and Win is fantastic! They have a playful flirty dynamic that is almost never seen in BL (they're always so serious). Their chemistry is really good and natural. In real life Prem and Boun spend a lot of time together and will actually act in another drama together this year, but you can tell that they have a good relationship in real life because it translates really well over to their story. Their pacing was more realistic and allowed them to really build a relationship. Unfortunately their plot line was mainly used for advertising and comedic relief. I'm really hoping for a season 2 where we focus on Team and Win's storyline now that Dean and Pharm's story has wrapped up.

In terms of production and everything, I'm kinda disappointed. First off the music and sound team should be fired. Why the fuck did half the scenes have repetitive, loud music blaring over top the dialogue. I could barely understand what they were saying at some points because the music was so obnoxious. The terrible music almost made me drop the show. On top of the atrocious soundtrack, we had an oppressive amount of ads in the show. From product placement, to name dropping this show was like the damn shopping channel. It honestly took away from the show at some points. I understand you gotta pay for this shit somehow but please, this was ridiculous.

After watching the last episode I was so disappointed because this was such a good idea and it could have been done really well but the insta-love between the characters and the way the show dragged on crushed any momentum they had in the beginning of the story. Their best plots were between two dead characters and the side pairing so it made for a fairly tedious watch. I recommend it to anyone who just likes fluffy BL stuff that sounds like its straight off of wattpad. If you loved this drama hell yeah, speak your truth. It just was not my cup of tea.
