When the one is back but is not the one who is used to be...
This is the story of a century-old man wating for his long-lost love to return before he dies. The problem arises when the indication of his reincarnated lady-love shows it's not a she but he. Will he die before finding the love for whom he waited for a century? Now it's for you to discover the truth.
Honestly, very honestly, I doubted the series. Not a big fan of lakorn but I wanted to give this a try. So I started this on a whim and I wanted to see one more episode of how the story would unfold. AND to my surprise, I was hooked! I'm glad I didn't watch while it was airing because if I had, then I would have lost my mind waiting for next episodes.
Not everything is perfect. Things were a little cringey, awkward, and childish, but entertaining AF! There wasn't a second I felt bored. The chemistry of DaoOffroad is just the cherry on top. And I have to confess, Offroad's eye smile has become my weak point. "Having a bad day?" Just look at the picture of Offroad laughing; your worries will fade in the air like *poof*.
What I liked:
-compelling storytelling
-No bullshit time waste
- smooth like butter chemistry of the leads
-The suspense it builds from the beginning and the way they had me seated till the last minute is commendable.
- most importantly, the VFX was top-notch! It wasn't sloppy at all but well balanced and visually appealing.
What I didn't like:
- calling your 1/3rd-aged man great-great grandfather 24 times an episode, was awkward AF.
- it was cringey at times, so I face palmed myself quite a few times ngl.
- fighting scenes could be better, but as he was a master of martial arts, I expected a clean-cut action scene
Overall, it was a great watch. I can see myself rewatching this not because of the thrill but for the leads chemistry, as it was swoonworthy.
