BL clickbait series

I'LL PUT AN ALERT BEFORE REACHING THE SPOILER PART.

BounPrem had no purpose in this series and promoting them so heavily as a couple was unnecessary and meaningless unless they were trying to gather fujin viewers.

I was interested in it because of the BL too, but apart from that, the cast is amazing. They were what kept me watching it till the end although I knew it wasn't a BL. But again, they used such popular artists just to acquire the fans. Kaownah had zero to no purpose in the series, yet he was promoting it like his life depended on it.

Fans had been anticipating this series due to all these reasons, and they were feeding us well with clips and teasers with English subtitles on YouTube, but then what?? Non-Thai viewers didn't even get subs for it and had to download an unheard app, which only broadcasted it once. Which means, if you failed to watch it on Sunday at the airing time at night, you can't watch it ever again. This made everyone watch the show illegally on various sites that personally frustrated me.

!!NOW HERE STARTS THE SPOILER PART!!

Now that I'm done ranting about all this, I'll talk about the story. It was great and promising throughout. The storyline was what made me not hate the series because of the above reasons. However, at the last episode, they just messed it up so bad. There are a bunch of plotholes, the ending was rushed and unfair to all the characters.

I totally supported Praewa and I loved the black magic backstories. Every episode had a twist and thrill. At first it seemed like Aeya was the worst character, but it turned out to be Lilin. I had been expecting her from a while before she was exposed, but everything was still good. I started to lose my mind in the last episode when we know that Dan actually knew everything about Lilin and still helped her. Now I can justify his character because he was under Lilin's spell, but I wonder why. If Lilin liked Brave (because of which, the entrire story happened), why did she keep Dan under her spell. Like who did she actually want?

Also if Lilin was Sai, why did she try to kill Praewa through black magic? Weren't they childhood friends? What happened that made her forget all about their friendship just because her reputation was at stake. And why would Lilin's reputation even matter to her. I found that pretty pointless, but again, without that the story would have taken place. I just would have liked a better explanation to the entire thing cause it doesn't fit really well.

Also the ending wasn't very appealing as basically everyone died. I'm not sure if Aeya died or not because they didn't show her picture when Lilin was paying respect to the deceased towards the very end. So, if Aeya died, how did she die. Like which was the point when she died. I suspect the body switching time, but it wasn't made very clear. It felt like her death was so vague and unimportant that they didn't even bother focusing on it. AND if she isn't dead, where was she at the end. They didn't show her at all, like they forgot the character existed when she really had the power to go out and tell everyone about everything. Treating one of the main characters this way, I just don't know if they expected from us to not notice that.

At the end I have to say that the best thing about this series was Ticha and Nene who played Praewa and Aeya. Their acting was crazy and mind-blowing. After everything, I can only congratulate them for their outstanding performances.
