When I heard about this series I wasn’t going to watch because I wasn’t a Krist fan at all at first. But, that’s another story for another time. All I’ll say on that is that I’ve changed my mind on Krist and he’s now one of my favorite actors. Now on to the meat of this review: when I watched the trailer I was intrigued and decided to give this bl a chance. I’m so glad that I did because it ended being my second favorite bl of all time. There was just something about this story that resonated deeply with me. How many of us want to be Kawi? To be able to go back in time and change past mistakes in our lives? I’ll say most of us do. But like Kawi we have to learn the same lesson: “live a life that we are proud of so we don’t want to go back and change it.”
I appreciated the life lessons this series taught me as I watched. I cried, loved and cheered along side Kawi and Piseang.
Kawi may not be an easy protagonist to like because he’s so human and makes a lot of mistakes in the first episodes but I understood him. I’ve been there so I got it. I loved having a protagonist I could relate to so well. As for Pisaeng it was so easy to love him because he was one of the greenest flags ever. The way he loved Kawi is the way we all want and deserve to be loved. Pear was a queen, I loved that she was her own character not just there to be a problem between PisaengKawi. And Max was the friend we all want.
As for Pisaeng and Kawi’s love story, i loved it. It was told so well. I love how the writers took the time with it and how they completely showed us Kawi falling in love. I have to say GawinKrist’s chemistry was pure magic! So much so that they became my favorite pairing ever. Their chemistry bordered on soulmates, plus they just had this naturality to it. Krist &Gawin just balanced each other out so well. I love them that as all.
As for rewatching value? This is definitely on my rewatch list and I will do it over and over again. BMF is worth a thousand rewatches. Highly recommended to anyone who hasn’t watched yet.
