Why?
Tried so hard to like this but as it wore one long episode after episode I felt like I was in an endurance race of mediocrity.Pat has three faces...open mouth breathing, grimacing and then my favorite...trying hard to act like he is thinking. He's a singer not an actor. Give it up kid. Or watch some GMM TV great actors for clues. Your director obviously doesn't have one. Or was saddled with you and tried to fix to no avail. Really the worst BL performance I have ever seen. And I wanted so much to like from previews.
Chot and Jeng are fine and fun to watch and good production values but so long and who cares. The lead actor is so out of his depth and even puffy lips cant save him. Jaab is stunningly handsome but a case of arrested development aided by rich spoiled kid syndrome. Think he read German philosophers to learn to act soulful and sad.
Sorry this is a waste of time. Sorry I did. You are warned.

sit back and enjoy one of the best BL's this year
The cinematography, the screenplay, the acting and directing....it doesn't get better than this. A riveting story that engages you over 12 episodes that never feel long. I have images in my head I will never forget due to their artistry. I didn't know where it was going to go but happy where it did end up. Please watch. The chemistry between all of the cast is sublime. It's just the best.Was this review helpful to you?

too bad
It was an interesting supernatural premise and I agree the editing and direction were sub par...almost amateurish. There isn't much chemistry between the leads and the celeb was so lackluster in his energy, dull, trite facial expressions and plodding ways it was hard to imagine him being an international celebrity. If you have hours to kill and nothing else to watch it will slowly pass the time.If you want to watch something fun, well acted, finely directed, paced with great visuals and chemistry and a supernatural element check out MARRY MY DEAD BODY. Show what you can do with talent and imagination

this is genius
okay. There are only a handful of BL series or films that I will never ever forget. This is one of them. The acting, the cinematography, the direction, the acting, the writing, everything. I watched it so many months ago and it still haunts me. I can't begin to describe how powerful and beautiful it is. You have to experience it. It's what BL should and could be.That being said I warn you that the end will gut you in ways you don't expect. Not dramatic but heart wrenching. Every time I see the title on World of BL or other places I tear up and move quickly on. If this is making you not want to see it, ignore me. Just warning you that you are in for something so rare and amazing and surprising.
I gave it 10's across the board but only a three for re-watching because I can't again without losing it and I don't know who could in their right mind. Maybe I can in time.
But it is a must see.

Happy I watched it
Okay yes it has flaws and the DID resolution is a medical fantasy.. But who cares? The acting is amazing, the story original and it has stuck in my heart and head for some time. Do yourself a favor. Just watch it and make your own judgement.Both of the leads give subtle performances in what could have been a bad gay version of the Three Faces of Eve. Not the typical Thai BL factory produced fare. There is real heart here. I would love to see this series continue, if only to explain the second couple who have 2 minutes of screen time. And watch the lead couples journey going forward.

still watching but dubious
okay I like the cast and idea... I am just having a problem with the opportunistic twink chasing him who I imagine will fall in love with him and feel guilty later when he finally gets a brain and a penis and then the potter finds out and all hell will break loose. t Not a new trope or script. I will keep watching and sure I will come to enjoy as others have you have written their reviews. But no amount of charm can cover the kids character, despite his I need money. I mean really. But production values are top notch and its a nice ride. Wish I could buy that pottery!Was this review helpful to you?
