Tragedy of nonsens.

Well, I was looking for some Thai series to watch. The best way to change your mind. And I was really hiped by the athosphere, i found characters really charismatics. There was a way to do something very nice. But it didn't meet my excpectations.

First, overall story has no logic. It was supposed to be a body swap but why only one did it ? "Kim soul was lost"... So we were legitimately expecting him to come back at some point. But no, it will never happen, so all this time we were sent in a wrong track.

Plus, it's terribly frustrating to never see the real Kim interract. Why don't make them BOTH experience the bodyswap and eventually make the "one has to die" ? Everybody would have cut his crap HIMSELF and would have say goodbye, could've been great. I have nothing against sad ends if it's justified, well brought. Or, at least, it's my opinion, but maybe they should've declare him dead since the begining : there it would've been a real assumed choice.

And, finally, what was the moral ? For HIStory3: Make Our Days Count, even if i didn't really like how they did (all of a sudden, like this... If you skip some scenes like me you didn't even understand that someone is ded), at least there was a moral, it was in the title. But here, what did it brought to the plot ? Overall, I did not really understand what they wanted to do, what was their project with this series. It reminded me some crappy Chinese BL drama where they were forced to do bad endings, so first episodes are normal and bad news come from nowhere at the end, making the overall WTF and totally absurd. Like "wtf did i just watch ? Was it the same series ?"

So, finally, it was kinda a waste because i found the acting really great, really convincing. But it doesn't make up for all this.
