While the overall plot may have left something to be desired, the undeniable chemistry between the characters managed to salvage the viewing experience. Although I found myself skipping through parts of the episodes towards the end, there were still moments of enjoyment to be found.

Freshness

I just finished this series, and I must say I really enjoyed it. So much so that I spent 5 hours and 50 minutes glued to the screen without distracting me because at each episode I was getting more and more immersed, I couldn’t wait for the next.
This Drama is fresh. It reminds me a little bit of Élite Spanish series but doesn't stand up to comparison with Bitch and Rich because there are fewer scenes of excess alcohol and no sex scenes especially not at the excessive level of Western production.This is due to the modesty of Korean film production. A side that I appreciate more and I don’t think I’m the only one by now I think many people like watching series, movies korean for that sense of naivety, modesty and authenticity.

"Alchemy of Souls" is a series that kept me on the edge of my seat with every episode. From the diverse array of characters to their intricate development and the seamless pacing of the story, the show's brilliance knows no bounds.

In particular, Jung So Min's performance shines brightly, catapulting her to newfound fame, and rightfully so. Her portrayal in this series is nothing short of breathtaking, deserving of every lead award the Korean TV industry has to offer.

With its compelling narrative and standout performances, "Alchemy of Souls" is a must-watch for anyone seeking captivating storytelling and exceptional acting.

Fun couple, emotionally engaging in most parts, they lost me a bit at the end.

Day (Sea Tawinan Anukoolprasert) was an aspiring athlete until his cornea was injured and told that he'd become blind eventually. While Day is living his days with his remaining sight, he meets Mhok (Jimmy Jitaraphol Potiwihok), who is hired by his mother to be his caretaker. Mhok and Day's moments together make them attached to each other, but their relationship gets really tough at some point.

"Last Twilight“ emphasizes the challenge of being in a relationship, rather than the obstacles in getting together. From how they portrayed Day and Mhok, it feels more of a character-driven story than plot-driven. As much an independent person he is, Mhok's past prevents him to fully express himself. Day is no 'damsel-in-distress' in his situation, but he often doubts his decisions through the ups and downs of their relationship.

Despite the somewhat sad premise, these two are fun and adorable. Another one that has my heart is Day's brother, Night. I enjoy his story and their brotherhood. The one I never understand is Day's mother. She is talking wise and all-knowing but her attitude is childish.

It was lovely except for the last quarter part, where the conflicts felt forced. They keeps showing us somewhat hopeful cliffhangers, but when we get to the actual scenes they felt underwhelming. At the last minute, they employed a trope I dislike before jumping to conclusion. The ending wasn't that satisfying but worked out pretty conveniently. Last note, this drama has a better than average production value (the editing and OST) as a Thai drama, I appreciate that.

Was written by a teenager for teen audience?

If it wasn't for my curiosity, I would have dropped this drama in the 1st 10 episodes. The central plot of this drama goes like this, The Lead couple get together for 2 minutes, promise to be together forever, and then separate 2 minutes later. Every episodes is just a weird version of this. They are constantly stuck in this loop. As if that wasn't enough in season 1, they decided to do the same in season 2 as well.

There were only two things i liked about this drama, first were the characters, however none of them got a good story arc. Second, the ending. While it isn't usually an ending i prefer, the entire drama was so childish that I thought the ending was wonderful.

THE BEST BL TO EVER EXIST. perfection.

last twilight is so exhilarating. it is a masterpiece and a full combo of happiness, tears, sadness, sorrow, joy and so much more. i have to say no one can make series like p'aof he is a gem and creates gem. jimmysea and ohm,mark,cream,film have done a fabulous job, i loved the last twilight scene and i was legit in tears while watching it, the whole scene was breath taking. the ost is LEGENDARY.PERIOD. i became so emotionally invested in the show that i would just wait for Fridays to watch LTW, I AM SO HAPPY THAT I FOUND THIS. jimmysea are def underrated they deserve the world. to me LTW was not just a show but it was something which had so much weight, the characters their depth the character development the small details and everything was just perfect. the show gives you hope and tells you that this is not a faily tale .IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR SOME CHEESY CRINGEY BL THEN THIS IS NOT FOR YOU as LTW is simple beautiful and realistic, no bl could ever reach its standard. i would surely recommend it to people because of the plot, cast, ost, cinematography and everything. a 10/10 bl and show for me ( even straight shows don't serve us this beautiful and meaningful plots ).

so Over the top but so good!

I have just rewatched this drama (probably the third time) and I still enjoy this despite all the tropes and numerous flaws of this drama. I mean it’s 14 years old already. since then all the actors have evolved but it’s a nice beginner drama to watch. everything is in there. the star crossed lovers caught in the everlasting social ladder, the “I give you money and you disappear”, the poor girl wearing very expensive brands, the continuity problems. I mean what a feast. I still can’t get over the cheesy soundtrack.
I don’t think you would do a drama this way nowadays but 10 years ago, totally. So to conclude an oldie but goodie. you just have to be in the right mood for it!

Good chemistry and interesting plot, but overall nothing special

Quick and easy, finished this in less than 3 hours. It's just your run-of-the-mill low budget web drama. Nothing sticks out like a sore thumb, nor is it anything special amongst a sea of very similar dramas. The time loop plot is quite interesting and I do like the execution of it. But the mystery/thriller part feels very out-of-place.

The leads have good chemistry and they look good together. ML is handsome and quite young (21 years old). He reminds me of a younger and less chiseled Dai Gao Zheng, though we didn't see his abs. FL is a very experienced actress and has appeared in many dramas. The acting is decent, and nothing is too cringey.

However, it has the usual things that I don't like in a Chinese drama - accidental falls/kiss/tripping in slow motion & poorly dubbed voices. The kisses are disappointing. I was really expecting more because censorship is usually a little more relaxed for these short web dramas. At least the male lead is not drowned in white foundation and white filter. He actually appears normal and good-looking.

Overall, it's OK. I can't really rate this as if it's a high budget production. A 7.0 seems about right.
