Probably the best BL discussing real issues!
I'd start by saying on of the best BL out there, it has everything, emotions, great acting, wonderful storyline, sweet moments and the list can go on.I'd warn you though, coz some of the episodes will make you cry, so keep your tissues ready. And that goes to show how the good the show is and how well it has been delivered by the actors, Fluke in particular, his emotional scenes were so good. The chemistry between the main was amazing. The relationship shown here was so healthy but yet realistic, there were consent so none of the BL trop where one lead almost forces the other, no unnecessary drama and most importantly no toxic female character looking for one of the main leads
That's it from me and trust give this series a shot and you're absolutely love

Surprisingly enjoyable
I enjoyed the writers view of this story. I felt they wrote a strong unique view of reincarnation after a tramatic event. And the production did a great job to bring the effort forward. I enjoyed most of the acting. And I love the development of the relationship.I think my biggest challenge was the way the writer(s) and director wrote Pharm (Intouches soul in Pharms body). I was taken back that he cried so often ( every episode) and over so much. I'm not in their shoes and definitely am not judging. I just think that subtracted from the show for me. I realize the soul was speaking and that something entirely it's own, but it just didn't sit well.
I felt that if you remember your past life and it was bad; you do everything possible to enjoy the new life. Accept your failures, realize your strengths and grow/mature as a person. But most importantly know the past look at it even if it hurts and learn and rise above it. After all, it's your past. You have to move forward and best you can!

Until We Meet Again: Good plot + storyline, but slightly boring.
I genuinely enjoyed the series very much when I first watched it, but it was a while ago, and from my current view it's not the best bl ever, but it is something nice to come back to between bls.The rewatch value is really high because it isn't overly intense and I can dip into any episode without much problem.
Overall, I recommend this for anyone who's new to bls, but this is seriously one that everyone should watch, or atleast try to, atleast once.

WAY sadder than I expected, but not in a bad way
Honestly, probably one of the healthier relationship dynamics in BLs. The two main characters only have eyes for each other and make that very clear. It's a cute relationship dynamic with building intensity over the course of the show.Personally, I was much more invested in Dean and Pharm than in their previous reincarnations. I think that because they show how their past lives died within the first few minutes of the first episode, learning their story before that wasn't as interesting as seeing Dean and Pharm uncover their past lives. Plus, having the knowledge of how their past lives died while Dean and Pharm are clueless is less fun as a viewer, since you're just waiting for them to have the information you do.
Very cute show, but with the occasional scene that is way darker than expected. The characters did feel a bit flat sometimes though. Also, is it technically incest to date the reincarnation of your dead uncle??

A TRIGGER WARNING IS NEEDED FOR THE BEGINNING
I absolutely love everything about this story. The acting is great and the chemistry between the characters is great and the story is sweet but my one main problem is the very first scene. It was very triggering for me and I doubt I'm the only one so that's my main thing. I wish there would be a huge trigger warning in the beginning.I started watching this because I wanted to see a drama with Bounprem and ended up with several new ships I love. The way the pretty and delicious looking thai deserts were tied into the story always made me hungry watching lol.

Revolutionary for its time.
To be honest, when I watched it during its release , it was the only thing i was thinking about however I feel like I kinda forgot about it to a point where I couldn’t bring myself to watch it. One of the strongest points in the whole show is def the acting. Earth was acting his ahh out in this. So yeah I would recommend watching it if u haven’t but personally I feel like I won’t ever watch it again .Was this review helpful to you?
puts the drama in BL drama! a classic
This series was a rollercoaster of a series! I think this was my second ever BL series that I watched from Thai production. I did not know what the story was about - except for guessing that it was about some reincarnated lovers from the title. So I was quite shocked when the first 10 minutes had the two maincharacters literally offing themselves with a gun.I think this deserved a trigger warning for that!
Other than that: the story was intriguing and fun though I wish we'd gotten more screentime for Korn/In also as separate characters living their lives with their friends and family (I especially loved korn's younger brothers) and cut back on some of the side couples (especially manaow and her love interest - i wasn't feeling the chemistry tbh)
Anyways, I think this is also one of those BL drama's that you NEED to have watched, it's such a classic and for it's time period quite impressive and well-thought out. There's also a lot of segments on Thai cuisine and culture which I always adore.
I am of the opinion though that this is one of those series that you can only watch once because of the plot: it won't feel the same after i think and it's also not really a comfort series

Best plot ever!!!
Now, this is what you call a storyline. A BL with such good plot, one of a kind. Acting - Top notch. Seen many red string fate stories but this was way better than anything else. Pharm I'll never forget your crying and your cute P'Deaaaaaan... All the couples were like sculpted to perfection Ohm-Fluke, Boun-Prem, Kao-Earth... Chef's kiss must say... The switch between past and present was very well done. Overall a 10… There's a reason why people call UWMA the best BL... Contemplated watching it when people said it's a sad drama.. But this is anything but a sad drama... Though Pharm cries every episode... this isn't a sad drama... Just go watch it...Was this review helpful to you?
This review may contain spoilers
The show started strong with Earth Katsamonat's acting drawing me in, especially the chemistry between Earth & Kao as Korn & Intouch. However, the main plot with Dean & Pharm was almost unbearable due to the lack of chemistry between Fluke & Ohm. Their insta-love felt unbelievable, & their bland BL Couple vibe was off-putting. The side plot of Team & Win was the best part, with a playful & flirty dynamic rarely seen BL. Prem & Boun's real-life relationsh-p translated win screen, making their Story more realistic, Production wise, music was too loud. The insta-love & slow
pacing ruined the show's potential.

Love and Loss in spades
This show was a masterpiece and a roller coaster of emotions. I teared up for 17 episodes straight. The acting from the 4 main leads were exceptional, esp. Natouch. That man was made to cry on screen. UWMA Is a beautiful and heartbreaking story that shows the tragic consequences of not being accepted by those you love, but also the joy and relief that comes from finding the piece of your soul that was missing for so long. Highly recommended for those wanting a powerful, emotional-driven journey (but bring tissues!!)Was this review helpful to you?
