He's Coming To Me (2019)

Sweet, odd and interesting

This drama has just a little bit of everything in it with a steady pace, lovable characters interesting twist and a pretty decent story.

It may not have a lot of logic, but hey it is a supernatural mystery so it does not really have to make any sense, However I did find myself a bit confused at times and while I may enjoy being confused sometimes this was not really the good type of confused... Other then that this is an easy to watch easy to binge drama that will most likely keep you interested and just want to give them all a big hug.

There are very few big issues here and the homophobia and other stuff is kept to a minimum showing a mostly accepting environment while still mentioning common situations that will make it harder to come out to friends and family.

I also like how the lead had a heart condition but was also human with more attributes then just having a heart condition.

All in all not a masterpiece but a pretty decent watch.

Magically Beautiful!

I surprised myself on how much I loved this story. (This series is also known as COME TO ME). It is way more complex than it first appears. It starts out as perhaps just another ‘ghost’ story, but it twists and turns into this beautiful and magical tale of friendship, love, trust but ultimate corruption and death. There are so many twists and turns to this series that I simply did not know how it was going to end. It is a story of friendships, of beautiful commitments to each other, to the realization of love, and to growing up and facing death. While this is a BL series (and it is), it is so much more than that. It is a beautiful tale of friendships, companionships, unrequited love, and real love. There is not a lot of overt romance but the subtleties of it are throughout this series. My full review of this beautifully acted and beautifully revealed series can be read at ppbongi.medium.com. Enjoy this series!

I have been postponing watching this series since .. before it is released ..
Why ? Because I could not get over ArhitxKongpob (main reason) and FramexBook (secondary reason)
Although I have watch other BL's with different pair, ArhitxKongpob is one that leaves a very strong impression on me.

I also feel rather sceptical when I read the summary, a ghost and a human?
What are the possibilities of a 'happy ending'? Transmigration? Reincarnation? Both doesn't sounds very appealing to me ..

So, finally I muster up my will to watch them, and I SHOULD HAVE WATCH THEM EARLIER ><

Story-wise, the development of the romance is SLOW .. yes .. really really SLOW
Perhaps my bias, I have been waiting for the relationship to develop, but it is SLOW ..
and the 'catalyst' of the development of relationship, is not something that I would horray on, but the delivery is acceptable .. (not the annoying type)

I love how they address the issue of Than's uncertainty regarding his feelings / orientation ..
The coming out scenes, well I love how he comes out to his mom ! It's a tearjerker for me ..
Hoorah to Than's Mom !

As a romance series, I would say they did a pretty good job.
HOWEVER .. If you come for the 'mystery', or 'detective-ish' ones, you won't get much out of this series..
I don't feel the unfolding of mystery is well prepared .. and how everyone is connected to everyone .. It's odd in a way ?
The revelation of truth, seems to be a bit, forced (?)

The ending of the series .. well ..
It's, what I would say, not actually a conclusive ones (?)
But I think that it is the best possible option for us now ..

Overall, this series is a good watch, and not draggy

PS: If you have extra time, I would really recommend you to read the novel too !

Sweet n Touching

First Of All,I gotta say I did'nt expect that much. I mean all part of the series such as acting, storyline, music,etc.Ohm's acting is way more improved than Make It Right The Series.He looks more mature.I might say you should(must) watch it. The story is not thin-line and it's very clear that they put so much effort on this series. The acting is so touching and as for Mes nd Thun it'll keep you smiling and heart bouncing all the time you see them.They're perfectly matched. That's all. I just want to recommend that you definitely should watch. I'll rewatch the whole series again after it end.

After the end ,the only one I want to blame is the system of scheduling shows in Thailand.One episode per week may lead us to a little cold-blooded over time.Especially final episodes of this series.I must admit I felt a little boring when I started whatching it although I really really like this show(I honestly like that much).But who knows,may be I only want Thun-Mes moment and not about how Mes died. And there's also a little plot hole such,Thun see only P'Mes.Well.I think I did know as He said he saw ghosts(Not A Ghost).And he never mention that He saw A'Ngoon And other P (sry that I don't remember the name).And so so. But this can be overwhelmed by the feeling that The Whole Series delivered to me especially Thun-Mes relationship , OSTs and excellent cinematography. What could I say? Honestly, all the BL series I've ever watched are so forced in a frame. Every Seme is Straight at first(sometime both seme and uke are straight that is really not feel like reality and okay) and then he fell for his one and only man (that is uke) and he'd say " My feelings are only to you Not to other guy" and so so. They dated so much girl in the past that they never give a damn about anything and broke up over and over again but when the time comes,they'll love that Uke soo muchh , fight agaisnt everyone and lived happily ever after. If you're getting bored of that, then This Drama will come along. ( Thun came out after kissing a girl and he knew that he doesn't like girl as a conseqences.Not from having feeling towards the one and only guy) .You should really try this and I'll guaranty that you'll fell for it at some point. I recommend watching this when you're alone and at night with cozy surrounding especially when raining.Of course I recommand dim light and earphones too.It'll make you feel something..Warming May be..! And then It'll take you to the some exact feeling..........
But I'd not recommend to the ones who are more like to watch The mystery parts.It's not a thriller series or detective series. Means that that parts are somehow weak plot.You'll know who is who and what is what by watching only 6episodes.

But a greatly well done BL overall.

This drama was far one of the best I've watched so far. The storyline was really great and there were some parts of the series that got me hooked. The mystery was well rounded and it gave many opportunities for the story to execute itself. The music was surprisingly really good. Anytime there were intense scenes the music would turn on it sets the mood in a really great scene. If there's a sad scene when the music matches it. If there was a happy scene the music would match that tone. If there was a scary/intense scene then the music would match that also. During 3 times I almost cried because of how great the acting was and how well the story was put into it. Even though the series is only 8 episodes each episode has its own significance which I really love. I hope there will be a season 2 with more mhmm intense scenes if you know what I mean lol.

GMMTV's only (almost) perfect bl drama

*THIS REVIEW HAS SPOILERS AND IS NOT MEANT TO CONVINCE ANYONE TO WATCH THE SHOW, I JUST WANTED TO SHARE MY OPINION ON THE SHOW TO PEOPLE THAT HAVE ALREADY SEEN IT*




I started watching bls a year ago, right when the pandemic first started. I've seen a LOT of bls, mostly thai bls from GMMTV. This is why I had concluded that GMMTV isn't really the best at making bls. Like the only one I enjoyed a lot was 2gether and even that drama had its flaws. So when I heard of He's Coming to me I decided to put it off and watch other dramas. Now that I couldn't find anything else to watch I decided to go ahead and watch this bl. AND OMG THIS BL BLEW ME AWAY.

Even though I have seen other shows that are objectively better than this one. But this drama really immersed me into the lives of the characters in the show. Usually, I have problems with shows that are less than 12 episodes because I feel like the pacing can be off and that there could be parts of the plot that could have been explained more. This drama managed to have near-perfect pacing which I really did enjoy. All the parts of the story were played out well. The only thing I have to complain about a tiny bit is that this show gives me lowkey SOTUS vibes but not completely like I don't know if both shows have the same director or if maybe it has something to do with SIngto being in both of the dramas but the romance isn't really the center point of this show, at least not at the start. Like the first 4 episodes, you almost forget that it's a bl and just get caught up with the little slice of life Than and Mek share. I haven't really cried recently when it comes to watching dramas. But episode 5 was so perfect. Ohm's acting felt so real that I was in bed at 12:00 am crying with him over his heartbreak it really touched me. And after that point, the romance picks up and I don't know how to explain what this show did to not make it feel so rushed. I guess that the shows did drop a few hints that there was something more going on between the leads but it's really subtle. And I love how to story also centers around the friend group I really enjoy that because most of the time the friend group is just background characters or side ships so I was really content with the show bringing the friend group and showing the audience their strong bond.

Okay, the only nitpicks I have with this show is first of all...... WHY MAKE THAN A KID WHEN THEY FIRST MET. I know that they start loving each other when they are around the same age. But I don't like whenever there are flashbacks about them that they remember those memories too it just feels a bit weird to be but nothing too bad. Second of all, WHY IS THAT OLD MAN NOT IN JAIL. He straight-up murdered his OWN NEPHEW FOR MONEY. How in the world did everyone forgive him so easily. And lastly... the ending. I thought this drama would end sadly. So I was so confused when I saw somewhere that this show has a happy ending. That statement alone is up for debate. Like honestly when I saw Mek again I thought he turned back into a human so that they can live the rest of their lives happily. But no? He just comes back as a ghost and leaves us on a cliffhanger until now 2 years later?! Like idk either revive Mek, let Mek actually go to heaven, and just give us a sad ending where we see Than in the future living his life but never forgetting Mek. OR give us a season 2 of them together and show us whether Mek can stay with Than or actually reincarnate.

I thought that 1000 stars was the only (almost perfect) bl drama and that just now GMMTV has started putting care into their work. But now seeing this, I realize that GMMTV had to capability to make amazing bls already. They are just a lazy company that gives audiences mediocre to good bl series for money. I hope that in the future that more bl series start having the same quality as this one.

Honestly
I went in with high expectations and came out feeling very full
The acting was amazing
The main lead Than during his confession scene was absolutely breathtaking and heartbreaking
I would give this a 10 but had to deduct .5 point because of the ending
I would’ve been okay with the pain
Now I’m left wondering what’s going to happen HAHAHA
But overall it’s amazing and a worthy binge ! !
I suggest to take this into consideration to watch it’s very impactful and does teach you great values and life lessons
I hope to take with me threw life
Sometimes BL’s are hella deep
This is one of them

Unique and Totally Underrated

What can I say? I’m left with such a good feeling after completing this drama. Definitely within my top BL dramas of all time.
It’s unfortunate that it was difficult to access English subs, because I truly believe this would be considered a Thai BL classic were it not for that.
Story was really interesting, I was instantly hooked within the first 30 seconds. Which is rare for me, and usually means I’m in for a stellar experience.
I love going in with only a very basic understanding of the plot because it makes for a much more fun viewing experience. The opening sequence alone had me ready to consume this entire drama in a single sitting (I didn’t, but I would have if I could have).
They had very good chemistry and the romance was very organic. It felt really realistic for a drama literally about a ghost and a human.
There was a good mix of comedy to drama, where I had some really good laughs and really good cries without feeling like I was experiencing whiplash.
All in all, would totally watch again.

Beautiful Ghost Story Done Right!

I loved this series! It was awesome to see a ghost story in a BL done right, after the disappointment of “So Much In Love”. Mes and Thun’s chemistry was wonderful! I love Singto as Earth in “Friendzone” 1 & 2, and he was perfect in this series as well! It was refreshing to watch a BL with such a unique plot. I really felt a connection with both the main characters. I could feel their love for each other, their sadness, and their apprehension for how their relationship had an expiration date. I felt the inner conflict Thun had with helping Ames resolve his issues that were keeping him trapped here on earth as a ghost, and knowing that keeping his promise to help meant Mes would have to leave him once the mystery was solved. I also loved the acceptance from Thun’s mother. This is a mystery to find out what really caused Mes’s death, the budding love story between a human and a ghost, dealing with coming out, and knowing the relationship you’ve developed with the love of your life has a quickly approaching expiration date. I would definitely recommend this series!
