New Level of BL
If you've been a fan of BL for a while, you will remember the hype for this show. Fans had to wait nearly 2 years for this show, but it was worth the wait!
Firstly the concept is incredible. The characters are a bit older than your average university BL, so the show deals with some mature concepts. It's very refreshing to get out of the city and into the countryside - which the directors played with. We follow Tian's journey in Pha Phun Dao Village, learning how to live and adapt to new surroundings. The world-building in this show is incredible, you really feel like you're there.
For Mix's first acting job, he did a phenomenal job. He embodied Tian and portrayed his character development through his body language and voice. Plus, his chemistry with Earth and the other actors were incredible. It is crystal clear that the entire cast and crew got along while filming because nobody looked uncomfortable or stiff.
Speaking of characters, these characters are wonderfully written. There are clear motivations for each one and no one falls out of character. I do agree that Chief Phupha started acting differently when he started crushing on Tian. I personally didn't mind it as everyone acts differently when they have a crush, but yeah it did feel weird when shy Phupha started flirting and pursuing Tian.
I'd say the one main downfall of the show is the medical inaccuracies. Tian hardly recovered from his surgery when he travelled to Pha Phun Dao and almost died basically every episode. He followed NONE of the advice his doctor gave him and SOMEHOW stayed alive.
Overall, this show is incredible. It's realistic while feeling like a fantasy.
The romance isn't very explicit, nor is there much skinship, but the flirtatious moments set up for some really rewarding and emotional intimate scenes.
Not only does this show feature mature themes, but it's also hilarious. Plus the attitude towards LGBTQ+ people is phenomenal.
There is not a dull moment in this show, you will be taken on a rollercoaster of emotions, but it is well worth it - 10/10!
