He's Coming To Me (2019)

I have to confess that when I first heard about this series I was a little sceptical, I love #peraya ship a lot and having Singto as the main lead for another BL was weird, and even more with this strange plot.

All my worries dissipated the moment I started watching it, it was such a beautiful and dramatic series. I really enjoyed I cried with it, I laughed with it.
Ohm Pawatt and Singto Prachaya had great chemistry, they worked hard for this series and the interpreted their characters perfectly. I hope people will find this series as beautiful as I did and support them as much as they deserve.
It has a happy ending. ?

~HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!!~

I highly recommend watching this. Great all around series.

I have watched this all the way through twice, and I have watched my favorite parts a couple times again. There are very few series that I will watch over and over again, and this is one of them.

I am so glad they finally released this on Youtube. (With Eng Subs even!) It was so baffling why they waited so long to do so when this has got to be one of the best Thai BL series made in the last few years, if not of all time. I hope a wider audience sees this series, and that this sets the standard for what a good series looks like. (No more high-fives for couples please, I am looking at you 2gether).

It is such a touching story, and is is so very well written, acted, and produced that it just has that special "something" that many series lack. It is funny in the right places, and the right amount of seriousness, sadness, or suspense in other parts. There aren't any big fights, or lots of that manufactured misunderstandings like some series suffer from.

The actors are perfect for their parts, and there is good chemistry between the actors. Even the supporting roles are played for good effect and have a part in the story, they aren't just there for filler. And it doesn't hurt that Ohm is very easy on the eyes either!

EU AMEI

Resenha de um dos melhores BLs que já assisti!

Eu amei TUDO que foi trabalho aqui (com exceção do final que vou fala mais a frente com spoilers). O BL inteiro é repleto de cenas dramáticas mas todas foram trabalhadas na medida certa, com muito humor para --- com as cenas mais fortes. A leveza com que eles trabalharam os assuntos me encantou demais, a questão do contato físico ficou na medida certa também. As cenas em que eles precisavam demonstrar uma química os protagonistas fizeram isso.

Posso dizer o quanto eu amei os amigos do Thun? Eles são o reflexo de uma amizade maravilhosa, cada um teve uma parte importante para o rumo que essa história tomou e como tudo foi executado muito bem. Sem enrolações exageradas e ações direto ao ponto foi tudo o que eu precisava.


{SPOILER}
A descoberta do Thun sobre gostar de meninos foi incrível, eu acho que aquela cena que ele está com a Praifah foi extremamente necessária, mesmo que depois ocorra aquela cena que me fez chorar horrores dele na chuva a noite inteira. Foi tudo bem trabalhado.

Amei todos os plot twist que tivemos ao longo da reta final, principalmente a ligação que o Mes tem com a mãe do Thun, aqui vemos como o mundo é um ovo pq até a amiga do Thun tinha uma relação com o Mes.
Sobre essa questão, eu fiquei um pouco decepcionada com o fato de que o avô Praifah (tio do Mes) foi perdoado tão facilmente. Eu particularmente fiquei abismada com o que ele fez anos atrás e pra mim isso não tem desculpas. Ele destruiu uma vida por dinheiro e mesmo que tenha arrependimento, isso não vai trazer a pessoa de volta a vida. Então não aceito o jeito como ele foi tratado, como se fosse uma coisa do passado e que não tivesse como voltar no tempo. Realmente não tem como voltar no tempo e consertar, mas o que ele fez com o Mes não é algo que eu consiga perdoar ou entender.

Best Thai drama I've seen. Happy ending.

Realism and Representation: no stereotypes, caricatures, heteronormativity, or demonized female characters. Thun is gay and he talked about how excluded he feels when his guy friends talk about girls. He struggled to accept himself. He had an emotional coming out scene with his mom, which was well acted. Everyone else is accepting, which is cool.

Story: it's not uncommon to have dramas about straight romances across the living and dead realms but there aren't many supernatural BL dramas. This is a supernatural university romance, and based on traditional death culture at that, which is something I've never seen before. It's honestly very creative and interesting. Even if it doesn't have gay romance I'd watch it and I recommend everyone to do the same. It's also interesting for me to see how similar Thai culture is about death compared to my own culture (Hong Kong) and it turns out it's EXACTLY the same, even the part about carrying the incense to transport the spirit and praying to the earth god to let the spirit stay. Anyway, even though the beginning is a little slow, I'm truely impressed with the story, which is not something I say lightly. It's a solid 10/10, the best Thai drama I'm seen, not kidding. Great twist and foreshadowing, great coming out scenes, sweet romance scenes, fascinating mysteries, AND a happy ending?... It's got it all. I thought the only way for this to end was for it to be bittersweet but I'm glad the writers decided against that. There are some beats where the pacing is a bit slow but in the grand scheme of things, it's pretty negligible.

Characters: the leads make a cute couple. Even though they might argue, Thun's friends care deeply about him. Thun's mom is accepting. Plai is also a great character.

Acting: pretty decent. Although there is some awkwardness, the important emotional scenes are very much on point. Kudos to the young actors!

Happy Ending - Incredibly Underrated

This is one of the highest quality Thai BL shows I have watched. I am really unsure how it slips the cracks and it's rarely talked about. It's not overly sexual, low kiss and physical touching. But the chemistry, stares, sweet moments just push this show straight through! I binged watched it and did not have the itch to fast forward the few minutes through other actors scenes throughout the series. Everyone was fantastic and the "friend group" had great chemistry as well. The main female was likable and didn't detract from the main story. I was mad I missed this one pre Corona Virus, but now I am happy that I had something equally as good as shows like "Until We Meet Again" and "Tharn Type" to get me through another 8 + hours of quarantine!

Don't kick rocks on this one like I did, just sit down and give it a chance.

This story is a gem and went up instantly to my number one spot for BL series! Up to now, it was Grey Rainbow in the number one spot and TharnType in the number two spot. The story-line is intriguing and hooked me on the first episode. Singto is perfect for this role because I like him more as being the one being chased, rather than the person chasing in SOTUS. Ohm is phenomenal in this series and even though he plays the one doing the pursuing and is younger than his love interest, it still feels natural. Not to mention, his smile and radiance is captivating! Without even being able to touch and being intimate, Ohm and Singto did a fantastic job portraying their feelings for one another in this series. I’m not weirded out at all about the love story of a human and a spirit; if anything, that aspect made the story even more interesting.

There are 8 episodes in total and I think that’s a fitting number. The story keeps unfolding at each episode and it never got boring. Just a note of caution, the final episode made me cry a river. I think this is Sing’s (who plays Khiao Khiem) best performance yet from all the series I’ve seen him in. Same with Chimon. Overall in my personal opinion, this is a marvelous series full of depth, love, acceptance, self-truth and life!

LOVE IS JUST LOVE :)

Hi peeps! I watched the last episode yesterday and with no bigger spoilers, let's just say that I cried, laughed, cringed and smiled through the whole series. But now to the review :)

STORY
Okay, so where do I start? I think the reason I waited so long before I started watching this series was bc first; I didn't know it existed until I saw it in a recommendation video on youtube, and secondly; I had a little problem with the storyline at the start. I really like the meaning behind this series, that love has no boundaries. But, to not spoil too much, I had a little problem with the thing that they met when Thun was about 10 years old. Mes has been dead for 20 years, which means he's around 40 years old. So that made me cringe a little bit.
But overall I think the writers did a whole good damn job with writing a story between a living human and a dead spirit. And it makes you aware that you should not take a day for granted, that you really are blessed to have this life. I love that it made me feel something. This isn't a story between just two lovebirds that have a problem accepting what they feel for each other. It's also about Mes story and him finding out what really happened 20 years ago.

ACTING/CAST
Singto and Ohm. Singto as Kongbop from Sotus and Ohm from Make it Right.
That's where I found them first and think of when I see their faces. It was a little cringe to see them together because of that but it also made me really happy that two of my favorite actors made a series together. And they did a really good job with it too, They gave the whole story life.
Singto, who played the ghost Mes, made me feel all the feelings his character feels. He was so cute sometimes, but once it was a heartbreaking moment, he turned into this really professional actor who was serious and tried his hardest to make the viewers proud of him. And I really am proud.
Ohm, who portrayed the character Thun. I haven't seen so much from him until this series but I have rewatched Make it Right three times with him in it. To not spoil too much; when the last episode came ohh boooy. He was the one really putting the story together, screamed, cried, and acted like a god. I really loved his acting and am looking forward to seeing more from him.

MUSIC
okay so, I haven't so much to tell you about this but I liked the music. It made me feel safe and I could feel even more with it in the background. I loved that it wasn't some text in it, instead they have chosen to use classical music that gave the series a really personal touch from all the "engineer and school" series. So thumbs up for the music from me. :)

REWATCH VALUE
I'm definitely gonna watch this series again so I can understand the whole plot some more. I want to look after details that I missed the first time, and I'm going to be more into it this time too I think. Bc of the whole first episodes, all I could think of was that Mes is 20 years older than Thun. But now I'm gonna rewatch it and just focus on the love between them and look at the story.

So? Some last words? Yeah, be sure to watch the end alone in your room with no one home, you're gonna need it. It's a happy ending but yeah, I don't wanna spoil something hihi :) Watch the series with an open mind and just enjoy!

GMMTV's most under-appreciated BL

A boy who can see ghosts and falls in love with one. They move in together and try to uncover that ghost’s murderer.

I love Love LOVE He's Coming to Me. It's is probably one of the most under appreciated GMMTV offerings (right up there with 3 Will Be Free). This is one of the BLs I foist on people who aren't already into the genre as a kind of teaser to get them hooked.

It's a paranormal romance which is one of my favorite romance genres, so combining it with BL always makes me happy. I love everything about this show, the friendship group, the parents (good and bad), the mystery (there is one!), the coming out sequence (both of them are gay ya'll, not gay for you).


Look, Singto is good, but Ohm is a revelation. He's ah-mazing. I mean Frame is a fun character (Make it Right) and Ohm does a great job with the higher heat they foisted on him in that series at what, 16 or whatever he was (shudder). And Dew was a great part to show off his range, but he is FANTASTIC as Thun.

The part at the end where Thun has to confront Mes's grandfather? That breaks like EVERY Thai society code: linguistically, socially, all of it. Doesn't matter if gramps is a baddie or not, the fact that Thun would go into someone else's house and fight for his man against not just an elder, but a rich patriarch? It's INSANE. Thun is such a bad ass. Like bigger bad ass than Tan in Manner of Death.

Anyway, conclusion, more people should watch this show.

My second time making a review. This series is super duper underrated!!! It definitely deserves the best bl drama award ever! ????? I have watched many bl series b4 like Tharntype, LBC, Addicted, DBK but nothing made me cried so much like He's Coming To Me. It was a tear-jerking fantasy, drama, mystery, romance that will surely make your eyes cannot read the subtitles because of the tears not stopping to flow. I bet that in just episode 1, you'll already crying and wait for the last episode for you to feel the most heartbreaking scene/plot you'll see. At first, I stopped watching cuz I think its not worth watching till end. But now I decided to finish it and regretted why I didn't finished it in the first place.I won't spoil you anymore since it also has such a plottwist that is commendable like in the Gifted series. I rate it 11/10. Just watch and you'll know what I'm talking about.

one of the most emotional Romances i've seen in a BL so far

To be honest, i didn’t like everything of this Drama.
For example: some of the Plotlines are odd and unrealistic ( for more details Spoiler reade below), even for a supernatural/mystery-BL.
The Humor was too silly and childish for me and the first three episodes feels more like a Bromance, than an BL-Story.
Also the Ending was disappointing for me, because it feels incomplete for me( maybe there is a chance for a second season)

But when it comes to the dramatic Parts and the tragic Fact that this Love could never have an happy end, this one is a KILLER.
Music and acting are on outstanding and in this moments the series deserves the reputation to be an outstanding BL-series and also a great Love Drama.
So all in all, even with the flaws, i would highly recommend to watch this series and prepare some Tissues ;)







SPOILERS:
The Fact that Thun is dating an Ghost, who is also the Ex of his Mother and the Fact that the Mother is just fine with that is way too much for me.
The Fact that the Grandfather killed his own nephew, just for the money, and he will be forgiven is not good. He has definitely go to Jail.
