Triage

Your first impression of this show is likely wrong. Please watch it!

I was sceptical of this medical drama because time loop stories aren’t really my thing, and it seemed overly convoluted/repetitive from the trailer. But now that I’ve watched it, I just want to say: I WAS WRONG. SERIOUSLY, GO WATCH TRIAGE.

Triage sees the return of Tee and Tae, whom you may or may not recognise from 2moons as ForthBeam (wow time really flies). They don’t look immediately compatible as a couple, and their chemistry was a bit off at the start BUT trust me, they will grow on you eventually.

The story starts off with Tin, a doctor, repeating the shift where he fails to save Tol, a college student who was wheeled into the ER. At 10:55pm, he pronounces the kid dead. He falls asleep, wakes up, and he’s back at the start of his shift. To get out of this loop, he has to make sure Tol doesn’t die. Sounds simple enough, right? WRONG.

Saving Tin is a matter of going back in time and undoing/redoing events that led up to that fatal car accident. But each choice he makes leads to different consequences, sometimes more fatal than the last. Beyond romance, Triage drives home the point that every individual is part of a wider system, hinting at the fascinating possibilities of events that could unfold if minor adjustments were made within each life path.

Despite the time loop/time travel plot, which sounds rather intense, Triage was never unnecessarily confusing. Best of all, the story was unpredictable, and kept me guessing the entire way. What a gem of a drama!

A Fresh Tale in the World of BL: BL+ Medical Drama + Time Loop

Triage offers something different than the usual bl setup (just like KinnPorche does). And as a fan of time travel or time loop concepts, I really wanted to watch this one ever since the teaser was released.


In addition to that, this drama is set in a medical background which makes it interesting. I liked the short film on this. All the performances are top-notch. Hoping the series gets better and better with each episode. I'm not seeing much hype on this. Hope it gets more attention from the BL fans.

I'm waiting for the rest of the episodes to give a detailed view.

One of the best BL series all over the time!!

سو، كنت منتظر المسلسل يكمل عشان أنزل الريڤيو هذا

المسلسل من أفضل المسلسلات البل الي ممكن الواحد يشوفها!! يعني مو مجرد حب بين كوبل، الموضوع أمتع وأفضل من كذا بألف مرة

فكرة المسلسل مختلفة عن أي مسلسل بل ممكن تشوفوه، يعنى حتى لو انت مو من مفضلين المسلسلات البل بتتابع المسلسل عشان القصة الرهيبة

التمثيل كان بيرفكت، خصوصًا تمثيل الممثل الشخصية تِين الي بالعادة أتابع مسلسلاته بتردد شوية، هذه المرة كان تمثيله مرة يجنن ومرن، ما تحس بالجمود بتمثيله

الكميستري بين الشخصيتين رهيب كالعادة بس بهذا المسلسل ظهر بينهم هذا الكميستري بشكل أوضح وأجمل


الشخصيات الثانوية أدوارها وتمثيلها رهيبة كل شخصية وكل ممثل أتقن دوره بإمتياز

يمكن عندي اشكالية بالبداية بآخر الحلقات أو بالأصح بالحلقة الاحدى عشر ولمن اختلف من الي يروح لـ لوب

بس بعدين بدأت افهم، خصوصًا ان هذا المسلسل من المسلسلات الي لازم تتابعها بتركيز عشان تفهم كل شيء لانه م بتفهم كل شيء لو تابعته متابعة عادية، لازم تربط الاحداث


عندي احساس ان المسلسل مرتبط بمسلسل مانر اوف ديث، يمكن تلميح لجزء ثاني؟ يمكن..

THE BEST BL SERIES EVER

HOLY SHIT!! What the fuck!!!! This is the most interesting BL series i have ever watch! It doesn’t fully revolve around love and I feel the plot is definitely most interesting. At first, I only watch them because of the closure i need from 2Moons which I couldn’t get from Darvid and Tee. BUT WELPS. This series is so much more than just a closure. I feel they have way much amazing chemistry that I am shocked to the core cause I can feel every emotion and longing in both of their eyes. Okay so we gonna talk about the actors first I guess. First of all, Darvid and Tee? Absolute darl! They have the best chemistry ever! I like how Darvid get to differentiate between every Tin in each loop and can I just please compliment how adorable and good looking Tee is? I never get to see how good his acting was in 2Moons until I watch this series which kind of a shocker how good his acting is! Other supporting characters are amazing! Top notch!

For plot, of course I love them. They are not cliché which fully focus on love and I like how Tin’s main focus was actually saving Tol’s life but once he get to know him and actually repeating saving his life over over again, he gets to realise that he has always been in love with Tol since he were young. So adorable. The twist at the end really shocked me since I never expect that someone actually is the mastermind and not professor Sakda remains mystery. This is one of the series that I didn’t skip such parts and I watch them from the start until the end which is good since I’m a skipper. Lol. At the end, I still have hope that Tin will remember Tol and wake up and I am glad they finally get to have their happy ending. Can I just also say I love how the director comes up with such brilliant plot on how Tin used to repeat every loop to save Tol’s life and change him and now, Tol is the one have to save Tin and change him for one last loop. It is absolutely brilliant.

Overall, I just love the plot, the songs, the actors. Everything. One of the series that actually made me cry. Honestly, I would absolutely re watch them. I’m not the type of person to rewatch series but for this? No doubt. Will repeat to watch anytime anywhere. Love the idea and how much they don’t rush the plot and it is honestly, beautiful. I wish they have more series together since their chemistry are amazing! Final rating, 10/10! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Great story line that keeps you curious and wanting for more episodes.

OST and music effects can be improved but the story and actors made up for everything. This drama didn't have lots of promotion and hype and I'm seriously upset why it didn't receive more love from international community. This show has one of the best story lines out there, coupled with a good cast I'm really glad I decided to watch this series.

The series is not overly sweet and full of fanservice and is from the same author as Manner of Death.

I actually think this show is best when you re-watch it because marathoning this series will actually make you realise how much each character has grown from the early episodes. (I re-watched all the previous episodes while waiting for new episode release)

Can't wait for the ending but I also don't want it to end so soon... I can already feel the emptiness once this series completes and I won't have anything to look forward to every Monday.

It's a good series, but the story went wrong somewhere

This show is entertaining and the premise is interesting, but it feels like the production didn’t know how to achieve the end goal they wanted. The entire organ trafficking plot was not handed well, in my opinion.

It’s clear that the story needed to separate the main couple in the end, which makes sense for the plot. They never manage to be together, even after trying several times. So, that’s not my issue with the show. My main problem is Dr. Doi. I don’t usually pinpoint performances that are bad, but in this case it’s important. Overall, the cast is quite good, everybody has chemistry, and the characters are interesting. But Dr. Doi is the exception. This is Boat’s first acting role, and it makes sense because from early on I could notice that I was not enjoying his perfomance. That’s usually OK, specially for a side character.

But Dr. Doi is a major player in the finale of the show. He has a lot of screen time in the last episode and it’s bad. I’m not saying it’s all the actor’s fault, because the plot is just messy. His portrayal of psycho mode Dr. Doi was not good, and the fact the entire plot depends on the fact that nobody managed to stop him, when there were 3 people in the room when he got thrown in the ground, really bugs me.

The show needed to put Tin in a coma and they chose the worst way of doing that. They could have him sacrifice himself for Tol or be shot by Dr. Sak (who was a better villain). But no, he got stabbed in the back by mega villain Dr. Doi, who comes out of nowhere and starts laughing maniacally.

Also, it feels like a huge missed opportunity to have Sing and Gap’s relationship not develop at all. It’s 11 episodes of nothing, besides Gap showing he has feelings for Sing, and then BOOM, they are together in the last loop and we get nothing.

Good, but it could have been great.

PLOT: Good but broody ER doctor, Tin, finds himself stuck in a time loop after one of his emergency patients dies. He soon finds out that he will only be free from the loop once he saves Tol's life, a rich and popular college student. - The story itself it's pretty great! It's like the movie Groundhog Day but with no comedy, more shady business, cuteness, and some good old fashion "omg I think I love you" moments. The twists and turns in this series are entertaining, for sure.....but some things were lacking for me.

CAST / ACTING: Maybe this is where I had my problems. Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against the actors at all but, for this series, I didn't feel as immersed in the story as I usually do. Sometimes, the acting was a bit lacking. The leading couple TinTol had their moments, but I still didn't feel the chemistry between them. They were supposed to represent this couple doing everything to save each other from this terrible fate in all the loops, but it was all very superficial. To be fair the time frame was short to fall deeply in love lol but I feel like that emotion would have sold the story better. I don't know. It wasn't all there. The second couple SingGap was barely a couple, they had little character development. Mai's character was also a little weak....she was bad but not really lol I have mixed feelings on that. Also the whole Dr Sak and Doi arc was cool but they left to the last episode to try to wrap things up and it went nowhere.

Overall it is a good series and I enjoyed watching it for sure! Far from being my favorite but I appreciate a non-cliché storyline.

Trust Your Drama Guts

I took so long to watch this masterpiece and now that I have, I'm tearing up just thinking about it. It was so good. Too good. I was hooked all 13 episodes. I didn't fast forward a thing. the ending had me messed up for days. I felt like I lost a part of me when that series ended.

Not gonna lie, it triggers every emotion of you entire existence. I watched the entire series in like 25 hours. I'm very hard to please because I'm a humanities student so I tend to always be pointing out the scenarios that reflect in real life. Nothing seemed fake even thought it was a supernatural genre. the actors made it feel so natural and real, even when scenes kept repeating themselves I couldn't get tired. The acting was 10/10 ESPECIALLY the plot. very very unique plot. ofc no plot can entirely be original but this made it seem like it's the very first of it's kind. it 100000% worth it frl. I watched it this week and I'm just waiting a couple months to watch it all again. ☮️

Best BL of 2022

What a wonderful journey!
Triage is one of the few dramas that have managed to keep me in suspense until the end (in the BL category one of the very few)!
But let's start with the review:

STORY
10/10

I would like to say that it is the best thing about this drama. But since the actors were also exceptional, I can only say that it is a story that leaves you with bated breath until the very end. I understand some criticisms about the last loop and I too initially saw it a bit lacking compared to the ones before. But when I thought about it, I realized that this last loop is actually well done too. If you ask me, for example, if I would have liked to see how singgap got together? Of course the answer is YES. But the very fact of not having shown it to us further supports the plotline according to which every action has its own reaction. In this case action-reaction happened before and for this reason we found ourselves in a loop that seemed different from the others. I could keep talking nonsense about the story, but I don't want to spoil too much. I just want to tell you that it is a series based a lot on the plot ... and what a plot!

ACTING
100/10

I didn't know taetee before this drama (I had actually watched 2moons, but their part unfortunately never happened) but I can now say that it was a real pleasure to watch one of their drama. Tae was just amazing, he carried the first 10 episodes all on his shoulders (they were all very Dr. Tin-focused episode so his performance shined above all the other) and he was a great discovery to me. While I was waiting for the new Triage's episodes I also watched paint with love with him and Singto, his ability to play such different characters really struck me. But the thing that surprised me was Tee's equal skill. The last loop, on the other hand, was very focused on Tol and Tee did a very good job at keeping the level high. But this vote actually goes to the whole cast because they were all very talented

MUSIC
10/10

Honestly I don't usually care about the soundtrack, but even the music in this drama impressed me! The song used in episode 4 during THAT scene gave me the chills even before I really understood what was going on

REWATCH VALUE
10/10

I rewatched this drama before the end while I was waiting for the final episodes. What a journey! The first time will always be the best for me, but to rewatch it calmly and discover the many details they have put into the drama and finally understand a little bit of the plot is an incredible feeling!
My advice is to watch this drama at least twice.

DISTRIBUTION
2/10

I basically lived in the triage mdl tag so I saw this question very often "why is nobody talking about this drama? Is it not good?". First of all, me too rely heavily on the level of satisfaction of the people I follow, if they like something and they rec it to me I usually always give it a try. But since nobody was talking about Triage I started it in a moment of crisis when I didn't know what to watch (thank goodness I did!).
The main reason why this drama is not famous is very simple, there was zero marketing aimed at international fans and we only had two hours a week to watch this drama legally. The producer has really lost a lot of money by not betting also on interfans when they had a drama like this on their hands, but on the other side Triage is very famous in Thailand. They simply made a choice (which I don't agree with😒), but if they don't want to do it I'll say it for them "PLEASE WATCH TRIAGE!"

FANDOM
10000/10

A small section of this review goes to the loopers too.
Very few of us watched it live in the beginning (and neither have I been there since the first episode), but this fandom was amazing, full of nice and intelligent people.
It was a real pleasure to watch Triage with all of you❤️

To summarize it: watch Triage, I swear you will not regret it💫
