Yes ... someone wrote on the net that he became a "prisoner" of this show. I also. This whole episode felt like Beauty and the Beast to me, and I'm going to be more critical than ever, and if you don't like my reviews (especially this long one), don't read.

BEAUTY:
Rain and Phayu, the second couple - without them, their acting, their likeability, their story, which was interrupted in the middle of the "plot", I probably wouldn't have given this project. Those two were the reason I became a prisoner of this series. A magical-looking Peterpan in his first major role, and Nod appealed to me far more than in Nitiman. Their scenes were also very well supported by the background music. The still beautiful Ohm (the character of Khim) and the likability of practically all the other swordsman and rugby characters (Chun, Pie, Phet and others). It was some scenes from the middle episodes that confirmed to me that the series will gradually develop into a superbomb. Unfortunately, it didn't happen.

ANIMAL:
The story was absolutely horrible, disjointed, torn, an absolute mess. I could list dozens of illogicalities, but I don't want to delay. "Something" always developed, only to be cut off, pushed back, or the story continued to act as if it hadn't happened. This literally drove many viewers to madness, and I watched as the rating on MDL gradually dropped, fell, gradually with the other episodes shown. From 8.3, the rating dropped to 6.8 today, so the viewers are angry. Such untapped potential. Several episodes dragged on like snot, tons of nothing, static after another, and I was just furiously rewinding faster to see if at least in half an hour Sun would fart and there would be some plot. In these moments, the music, otherwise beautiful, started to bother me for the first time. Because listening to heart-pounding music when "nothing" happens and the actor just turns his head from right to left (written figuratively) in two minutes, I didn't enjoy it.

ANIMAL OBSERVATIONS BELOW THE LINE:
- I'd like to see Fluke in a better role than just a confused and grimacing crybaby, shaped like a plucked mutt gnawing on a ton of red apples, Fluke didn't improve his acting reputation much with the character of Sun
- a nice "vest" in episodes 9 and 10 for the often unnecessarily confusing and indifferent character Khim, the costume designer got it right, the so-called "anti-bib" that exactly copied the holes in the entire story
- Khim runs up 25 floors as fast as Sun in the elevator, and it stops at each floor to see if the elevator car is going faster or slower than he is running up the stairs
- the orchestra: the young conductor waves in such a way that the play would have to break up immediately, Baibua couldn't see the violin even from a speed camera, poor Khim tried, but he couldn't save the cello playing with vibrato alone, everything could have been filmed, filmed differently
- Rain is in Brazil in front of the Iguazú waterfalls (I recognized it from the arrow to Itaipe), but even if he was on the Argentine side, in the whole of South America you drive on the right (except for two small, insignificant countries in the north), but Rain's car had steering wheel on the right
- stories of additional characters incomplete, while there were hours of wasted time

OVERALL: Phayu and Rain stole the show, they made one of the best BL couples I've ever seen (of course this is just my opinion), but they weren't allowed to do so physically as the storyline kept them apart for a long time. I'd like to see them in another project (possibly with all the likable swordsmen and Chun), but not led by the writer and director in one of these series. I've added a link to a short montage of Raina + Phayu footage in the comments, check it out.
Despite my very critical review, I RECOMMEND the series to all sensitive souls, I just wanted to express my disillusionment with how everything was wasted here. Respectful tribute to my colleague monvi for the precise translation, eighteen hour-long episodes are not just ...
