This is the BL against which I compare all others
This is the BL and drama against which I compare all other BLs. Although it started a bit slow for me and was a bit confusing at first, I put that down to it being one of the first BLs I watched.After watching this one and being so affected by the story, many other BLs were disappointing.
The actors, director, writers, and production staff did an excellent job.
I have rewatched it several times and am always caught up in the story and amazed at the actors' skill at such young ages.

watched for winteam stayed for winteam
I watched it because of boun and prem. I wouldn't have watched it if it weren't for winteam, manow and del. it wasn't bad just not good in my opinion. they overplayed pharms shyness and at times nanon seemed really uncomfortable. I prefer between us personally, I think between us is alot better. you also see alot more of the friendships.win team had the best chemistry dean and pharm seemed uncomfortable most of the time. I've watched it twice now I dropped it the first time and watched it all the way through. if it weren't for the stoplight gangs friendship, del and manow I probs wouldn't watch it.
don't think I'd watch it again

Very Sweet Love Story
- Genre –Reincarnation/Romance/School/Students/BL
- Brief Synopsis –
Protagonist A and B are schoolmates with B 2 years above A. In a previous life, A and B were lovers but because of family forbidding them from being together, B kills himself in front of A and A follows suit. In the present day, every time A would see B, he would have flashbacks of that time. At night A and B would also have dreams of that time. That is because the current A and B are reincarnations of the past A and B. This is why B is immediately in love with A from the moment they meet. The story focuses on A and B getting used to being together once more and finding out just what happened in their past life. In the last episode, A remembers everything and breaks down, threatening to kill himself to punish B for his selfish act and B apologizing over and over again and promising he will never hurt him ever again. After that A tells B that he wants some space but the separation is brief as A realizes he can’t be without B. The show ends with them together again, looking forward to life after graduation and perhaps a wedding in NYC. The show is a mixture of scenes from the present and scenes from the past.
- Plot and Storyline –
This is a very interesting take on the theme of reincarnation. Personally, I feel the concept is well executed and very impactful emotionally as I found myself crying a lot while watching it. The interaction between the leads is enchanting, with each touch of the hand and every kiss evoking a sense of delight and excitement. The palpable romantic atmosphere creates a charming allure, making every subtle gesture between the characters profoundly captivating. Although the intimate scenes are pretty tame, it doesn’t disappoint me at all because everything is so well shot and contextualized.
- Character Development –
The most noticeable development is both characters finally reconciling with their past and learnt how live in the present.
- Acting -
The acting is really nice and the leads do a great job at displaying the love between the main characters. I thoroughly enjoyed the performance of the actor portraying A, finding his portrayal compelling. However, I had mixed feelings about the actor portraying B, as he had a tendency to keep a blank emotionless face that, at times, seemed to dampen the impact of A’s tears and his grief. Whether this was a result of direction or acting style remains unclear, but there was a noticeable improvement in later episodes. The crying scenes, though, were undeniably powerful; they had a genuine and heart-wrenching quality that evoked a visceral response, successfully avoiding any unintentional humor and instead deeply resonating with the audience's emotions.
- Production Quality -
Decent production quality with somewhat realistic sets and props.
- Writing and Dialogue -
Writing for the other characters can sometimes be a little cringey.
- Pacing -
Pacing is good.
- Themes and Message –
The main message is that sometimes family tragedy can occur when you refuse to accept your kid for who they are.
- Audience Appeal -
Anyone who wants a good cry will love this show.
- Standout Moments -
N/A
- Criticisms -
x B's acting can sometimes take you out of the scene. He sometimes doesn't really react to A's tears - at least, in a way obvious to the audience. He keeps a blank face a lot of the time.
x The writing outside the romance scenes can get a little awkward as characters' interactions with each other seems a little unnatural.
x Acting isn't exactly this show's strong point.
- Conclusion -
I’ve already rewatched this show numerous times as I really like A and B’s interactions. The show beautifully captures the romance in the subtleties of their relationship, showcasing how even simple gestures like holding hands can be incredibly romantic when presented in the right circumstances. For those considering watching, the true charm lies in savoring these small, meaningful moments between the characters.

Probably the best BL discussing real issues!
I'd start by saying on of the best BL out there, it has everything, emotions, great acting, wonderful storyline, sweet moments and the list can go on.I'd warn you though, coz some of the episodes will make you cry, so keep your tissues ready. And that goes to show how the good the show is and how well it has been delivered by the actors, Fluke in particular, his emotional scenes were so good. The chemistry between the main was amazing. The relationship shown here was so healthy but yet realistic, there were consent so none of the BL trop where one lead almost forces the other, no unnecessary drama and most importantly no toxic female character looking for one of the main leads
That's it from me and trust give this series a shot and you're absolutely love

Wish I'd liked it more
Oh I really wish I liked this more, but it does exactly what I don't like about the soulmate trope.I like the idea of two people who get dreams about their past lives and feel like they've always been missing their other half, but it's much more interesting when two people fall in love with each other when they are reincarnated, rather than because of it. Dean and Pharm see each other from across the room and just know each other; from there, the romance seems to happen pretty quickly. I don't know, it all just felt...too easy? Dean/Pharm scenes overall got very repetitive to me. There are a lot of scenes where Pharm just ends up crying and I don't think any of it hit me emotionally, whether it was because of the acting or lack of development for the character himself.
Some other things about the drama also just feel like they jumped the gun, like all the students hyping up the Dean/Pharm ship when they haven't even met. The pacing of the second couple was also weird to me, and overall I think none of the acting was that immersive for me.
On the other hand, I think the past lives scenes with Intouch and Korn were the strongest scenes. I still wish there was a little more meat to how they fell in love (and not just how their story ended) but ultimately I still enjoyed their scenes the most.

Surprisingly enjoyable
I enjoyed the writers view of this story. I felt they wrote a strong unique view of reincarnation after a tramatic event. And the production did a great job to bring the effort forward. I enjoyed most of the acting. And I love the development of the relationship.I think my biggest challenge was the way the writer(s) and director wrote Pharm (Intouches soul in Pharms body). I was taken back that he cried so often ( every episode) and over so much. I'm not in their shoes and definitely am not judging. I just think that subtracted from the show for me. I realize the soul was speaking and that something entirely it's own, but it just didn't sit well.
I felt that if you remember your past life and it was bad; you do everything possible to enjoy the new life. Accept your failures, realize your strengths and grow/mature as a person. But most importantly know the past look at it even if it hurts and learn and rise above it. After all, it's your past. You have to move forward and best you can!

WAY sadder than I expected, but not in a bad way
Honestly, probably one of the healthier relationship dynamics in BLs. The two main characters only have eyes for each other and make that very clear. It's a cute relationship dynamic with building intensity over the course of the show.Personally, I was much more invested in Dean and Pharm than in their previous reincarnations. I think that because they show how their past lives died within the first few minutes of the first episode, learning their story before that wasn't as interesting as seeing Dean and Pharm uncover their past lives. Plus, having the knowledge of how their past lives died while Dean and Pharm are clueless is less fun as a viewer, since you're just waiting for them to have the information you do.
Very cute show, but with the occasional scene that is way darker than expected. The characters did feel a bit flat sometimes though. Also, is it technically incest to date the reincarnation of your dead uncle??

A TRIGGER WARNING IS NEEDED FOR THE BEGINNING
I absolutely love everything about this story. The acting is great and the chemistry between the characters is great and the story is sweet but my one main problem is the very first scene. It was very triggering for me and I doubt I'm the only one so that's my main thing. I wish there would be a huge trigger warning in the beginning.I started watching this because I wanted to see a drama with Bounprem and ended up with several new ships I love. The way the pretty and delicious looking thai deserts were tied into the story always made me hungry watching lol.

стоит смотреть
Когда начала смотреть я тут же растаяла. Я чаще люблю смотреть по рекомендациям, но в этот раз из-за состава актеров. После первой сцены, я немного растерялась и побежала читать отзывы. Положительных было мало, это меня смутило так как даже первая сцена завораживает. Теперь до смотрев - говорю за себя, что это лучшее что я видела. я влюблена и лакорн попадает в избранное для повторов и пересмотра. отдельно об актерах. Все играли потрясающе - мимика, эмоции. Не особо нравилась игра Эрта (Ин) толи роль такая, толи реально переигрывал. Ом (Дин), ох уж этот чертенок с его чертами лица, ямочками, взгляд, линия скул - все...я вкрашилась и теперь хочу посмотреть все его роли. Его сцены были на перемотке назад снова и снова. Особенно с поцелуями. Мамочки спасите. Као (Корн) ну играет отлично. смотреть с удовольствием. Бун (Вин) - его мимика, общение...ммм...Флюк (Парм) - вот многие его ругают за постоянное стеснение, плач, улыбки, ужимки. Ребята, я не согласна. Такова его роль. Сыграл потрясающе, если учесть весь сюжет и все эмоции. Петр - ну этот красавчик с глазами олененка тоже хорош. Драгоценная богиня улыбки - Саманта. Ее игра растопит любое сердце. Мин (Алекс) - ну этот отыграл как всегда слегка сердитого паренька. Хочется чаще видеть его роли с его улыбкой. Про лакорн. Смотрите, только внимательно, там много моментов для жизни. Реально очень насыщенный проект.Cet avis était-il utile?
