confusion begins

Overall: although the start of the series was very confusing, I appreciate they tried a different type of plot. Watch after the initial credits for an important final scene. This is part of the My Universe series with 12 couples/stories over 24 episodes total (1 per week so 6 months of airing). Aired on iQIYI.

Content Warnings: death, attempted suicide?, manhandling

What I Liked
- a more unique premise
- good kissing

Room For Improvement
- this was extremely confusing, there was a brief bar scene and then a bunch of characters were introduced with no clue of their relationships to one another/who they all were, 1/3 of the way in we got an exposition dump that clarified a bit but I didn't feel anything for any of the characters
- total nonsense approach/"plan"
- how does someone get electrocuted from having wine spilled/tossed on them, even if they meant had a seizure I don't understand how the wine was a trigger for that
- conversations felt very odd/scripted
- not a fan of putting an extremely important scene after the initial credits
- needed to air 2 episodes per week

Was very confusing most of the time

It got confusing quickly. We are thrown into the middle of this whole thing with a bunch of characters who we don’t know who they are, adding some flashbacks on top of it made it very hard to follow. There are obviously a lot of different connections between all characters, but the lack of explanations means we don’t really get familiar with those connections.

The premise is quite interesting, I’ll admit that, but things are rushed. And that makes it choppy and hard to follow. Pluem / Kim is an interesting character, but he’s not the smartest. Also, slightly creepy at times. Khunkhao is not my favorite, and while we know Pluem is the one in Kim’s body, he doesn’t know that. Yet he’s flirting with a man who broke her sister’s heart. I’m sure that would make family reunions interesting.

The ending though… I should have expected something like that. Am I happy with it? Not really. Could it have been worse? Yes. Could it have been better? Yes.
