Living up to the hype

Started to watch for Win after seeing so much hype about it so I was a bit scared to be disappointed but I ended up binge watching it and I do hope we'll have a second season (with Win and Bright confirming a serie together in 2024 I am hoping they are talking about this !)

the plot is great, it keeps you hooked until the very last minute, some scenes are truly amazing to watch and obviously this is a great cast who came to slay

honestly the only bad side of Enigma is how short it is, so let's hope for new episodes this year!

A CRIME HAS BEEN COMMITED

This is by far one of the best non BL shows I've seen from GMMTV, its definitely in my top 5 from them. My only complaint is that it HAS to be a crime that this show is only 4 episodes. I loved everything about it from the characters to the storyline. The horror isn't too much just enough, although it can get a little bloody for anyone sensitive to blood.
How dare they make the first season only 4 episodes?! And I say first season with confidence because they better have a season 2 with the way things were left off or else you'll find me rioting in the streets of Thailand in front of GMM headquarters!

What a Spell

GMMTV did a great job with this Series and I’m not saying that because I love supernatural storylines. This was a creative and interesting series. It’s a good example that it doesn’t matter how many episodes a series has as long as it has a great script. It grabbed my attention right from the start. My only criticism is the comedy element. I understand what they were trying to do, but I found it annoying at times. The last episode had some weak parts to it, but it had an interesting scene at the very ending that suggests a possible 2nd season. The acting, cinematography, special effects, and FX make-up was outstanding.

Just AMAZING

I generally don't write reviews. However, this is just simply one of the best shows GMMTV has made in a while. The acting, the soundtrack, the production, the cinematography, and the chemistry top-tier. Amazingly done. This will be a re-watch for sure, even if it's only 4eps. Congratulations to the cast and crew on this amazing little series. Can't wait for season 2.

The only downside I can't give this anymore stars. So here are some more stars in a comment. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Can we have more thriller and supernatural Thai dramas?
I only came for win but all the actors have marked me with their incredible acting
The storyline was finely written without leaving gaps and usually, I always want backstories to explain how they get there. The reason why I enjoyed this so much is there are few dramas like this so the originality and creativeness is seen

"Looking for a thriller drama? Just go for it"

First drama to see all episodes in one sitting it has only 4 episodes😝) . Wow it was so so engaging and interesting. I am a person who is afraid of watching these kind of thrillers alone. But wanted to give it a try coz of win, and I have made it. It was scary at times but not like in other thriller movies which keeps haunting. I think anyone can watch it just be ready for a few jump scares.
The plot is so good and it maintains the suspense. But sad that it ended with 4 episodes. Couldn't get enough of it. The acting of cast was well done. Should definitely appreciate the visuals like makeover of characters or the transitions and effects all these were appealing and helped to get better feel of the plot. Personally I felt there is much more story behind and after this. Like we don't know if win is really what be claims to be or does he have some dark past and why is he looking for enigma? All these should be told so I am highly expecting another season. Bright's cameo at the end was a banger.
If you are hesitating to watch, dont think much just start watching. It will take you to another world and you will come back at the end😁.
Finally thanks to Gmmtv for this amazing series. Want more of this genre. Please cast bright also as a main lead in next season ❤

Awesome

I have watched ep 1-4 so far and really hope for more! The acting was great, the special effects on top, the plot thrilling.
The only thing I have to criticise is that I felt the plot rush in some situations. I would have liked it if some scenes had been expanded a bit, to make the storyline more understandable and give the viewer more chances to relate with the different characters and their relation to one another. I know it was supposed to create suspense and mystery, but some aspects had not been covered and left the viewer with open questions. I really hope there will be more.

A Win for Win

I LOVED seeing Win in a role like this. This show was dark, freaky, supernatural, and INCREDIBLY well done considering it's so short. I really thought it was going to feel unfinished, but it's the perfect level of complete to be satisfying, while also gearing up for another season. The only critique I have of this one is the relationship.

At a competitive all girls high school, the top students start dying mysterious deaths, starting from the top ranked and moving down the list. Fa (Prim), ranked 3rd, starts to think that these "accidents" are anything but, and can't help but to notice they line up with the arrival of the new teacher, Mr. Ajin (Win). Thinking he has something to do with it, Fa starts investigating, and gets herself wrapped up in a world she wasn't ready to uncover.

In only 4 episodes, they managed to provide the perfect amount of background information and build the story at the perfect pace. You learn alongside Fa what is happening and how everything is connected, which was super fun to watch. My only complaint is a big one though - why WHY do we need any romance between Fa and Ajin?? I don't care about technicalities of how old they are or whatever, they meet as a HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT and a TEACHER. Luckily, any romantic feelings Fa has toward Ajin don't matter nearly as much as the horrible occurrences at this school. The horror elements are done way better than I had expected, and it had me captivated the whole time. I can't WAIT to see what season 2 has to offer!!

Amazing!!

This is one of gmmtv best series, hands down.

Watching the trailer when it came out, I knew I'd love this series and thank goodness it didn't disappoint. I was sad to see it only had four episode but at the same time, happy they didn't drag it way more than necessary.

Everything was perfect. The storyline, plot and even the actors acting their respective characters. They were all good. I also need to take a moment to appreciate how beautiful Win is. Whenever he was shown, I was always at awe.

Some might think the kiss at the end was unnecessary, but I think it was good they showed us how Fa felt, irrespective of the age gap. That doesn't mean her feeling was reciprocated.

Anyways I'm excited for the season two and knowing Bright will be in it. It ended with a twist which isn't good for my mental health.

I recommend this series to everyone. It's a quick watch with no dull moment.

So, I just wanted to say I have been waiting for this one since I watched the trailer. but I don't know what I was high on that I remember it looking like a toxic and taboo romance lol which obviously yes please!

but I started watching and at first I didn't know what to think about the fact that it's a horror plot with hex curses and all. I mean look I love all that too, especially ffs Win looks sooo gorgeous! even more so than anything he's in before at for me personally. because damn the way he looked especially in the red coat and the other ensembles !

but okay this one is very much symbolic and everything is either a metaphor for mental health, or toxic relationships, or even fears that people who are different frequently have to suffer.

the bullying from people that turns the victim into a villain themselves, that's what the "curse" on Namsine basically stands for and I love that nuance. The whole part of 'Enigma' is done so well, I just love it.

even though like I said I wasn't sure at the start if I was going to like it but dude I was hooked by the end of ep 1!

I love gross grotesque stuff so that ending reveal blew my mind (⁠θ⁠‿⁠θ⁠) even though I pretty much said it out loud to myself that if it is him that would be BADASS and it was! lol
it was exactly as badass as I thought! I can't wait for the next season

It was fine

One of the most visually pleasant GMMTV series I've watched so far. The cinematography was really beautiful and unique, accompanied by smooth transitions and proper music choices that complimented each scene in the best way possible to create a mystic atmosphere. The acting was pretty good and I was glad to see Win specifically in something so different.

Regarding the story, I'd say it was well written overall and the premise was interesting enough and the series does a good job to keep you interested, but it didn't hold any significance for me. The attention to detail on the writing part, was mostly what this show lacked in, for me. Neither the fantastic element nor the characters were developed enough.

The series is slowly building up its story on layers, probably planning on getting deeper as the seasons go by, but as a stand alone, the first season felt like it briefly narrated the supernatural aspect of the story, instead of delving a little more into that incorporate part of the world building.

As for the characters, I didn't connect with them, and it had less to do with the number of the episodes and more with the fact that the story didn't invest time to really focus on any of them, but only on what was happening outside of them, which wasn't explored either. That significantly reduced the emotional impact a scene aimed for and could have accomplished.

Overall, this show is well crafted and definitely worth watching for the visual part alone, and I recommend it to people who are fans of the genre.

LOVED LOVED LOVED THIS SHOW

the only reason this does not get a 10/10 is because im very biased when it comes to actors who have been in bl and when i saw that bright was gonna be in the last episode i got even more excited i originally wanted to watch because of win the show was amazing the cast, the story, it was a fast story but well paced overall great

but i thought when they said that bright was gonna be in the last ep i got excited when in episode 3 i believe ajin said after fa passed out after the astral traveling thing " i wont let anyone else get hurt" i thought he was perhaps referring to someone in his past a.k.a bright possibly being a former lover NO!! i saw him in the last few second in ep 4 and i cried when i found out that bright is possibly evil and is possibly enemies with win , him being a little junky creepy stalker guy in midnight museum was hard enough now i gotta see bright-win possibly hate each other in season 2 are you kidding me

still gonna watch it though because im gonna support them no matter what i just gotta mentally prepare myself
