Enigma

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

"Enigma" it's a thai mystery drama about strange events happening in a school.
Fa is a normal girl, that finds herself entangled with Ajin, her new teacher, who's also a sort of exorcist. The two investigate the events and tried to find the evil thing that is haunting the school.

A drama that ended up positively impressing me with the story, the special effects and the way in which it managed to create an almost tangible tension, but at the same time as it has several positive points, the drama failed in the rapid development of the narrative.
Only 4 episodes weren't enough, the ending was too rushed, it wasn't as good as it could have been. They should have put at least 10 episodes, that would have given time to better explain everything that happened with Namsai and about that Enigma.

Similarly, Prim's acting in Enigma has also been well-received by viewers and critics. She brings a natural and heartfelt performance to her role, balancing vulnerability and strength in her portrayal of her character.

Fast-paced and quick. But maybe... A bit too fast-paced.

I wish a good day to the person reading this review.

About this drama, let's look at it episode-wise. The first episode will definitely get you hooked in awe. The second one will hook you even more with a slight relevation of the ML's personality. The third episode has action at the beginning, but focuses more on the chemistry between Ajin and Fa. And the fourth... It has action and chemistry both, but somehow it felt forced and didn't really make it out in my eyes. It could have been better. But the ending was definitely worth it (Brightwin stan, imma pointin at ya)

For the story, it has a major plot of black magic with a secondary plot of Ajin and Fa's chemistry.

I'll say it right now, the second plot wasn't at all required. It was too much to squeeze in 4 episodes of content alone. If the makers of this series really wanted to involve this romantic aspect, they should have added more episodes because it honestly the chemistry between Ajin and Fa just wasn't given enough time to develop. That love just didn't manage to touch the core. I couldn't feel Fa's sadness when Ajin left.

However, the main plot of the story: Well done, director! Black magic, horror, thriller, yep well done! The story flow was good, and had the right amount of pace to keep you on the edge of your toes. Besides, this is my first major dive into horror and I was happy with my experience. I won't spoil much about this part, because it is worth not spoiling.

The cast was excellent. Win was so freaking handsome and fierce dude!!! ( I would atleast check out this show only for the visuals.) He played out a strange yet appealing personality I would keep an eye for. Wonderful actor. Prim plays out her character well too, she is a good actress. But there are some scenes towards the end where her act feels forced (When she's tryna take care of Ajin). But that was in the script, I believe, where the scenes could have been designed better. She was simply playing out what was in the script. Prim on her own is an amazing actress. With the right script and the right role, she'll shine. She has got those guts! Except the chemistry part, Fa executed herself well in the series.

The villain (I won't spoil that at any cost) plays it out fantastically. Her story hits me hard. It is said too, 'A murderer is not born, but made' and this character portrays that quote perfectly. I wish I could write more about this, but I promised to not spoil this part!!! It will touch you and make you rethink certain things. Overall, thumbs up here.

I love you, Yiwha! Her role was short, yet so nice 🙂 Definitely impactful
Namsai seems delicate and elegant.
Kaohom was played well too. Known and bubbly. Anything you'd expect from a popular girl in school.

Overall, a good watch. This ought to be checked out atleast once.

I am waiting for season 2 (Hopefully)

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING FKIN AWESOME

Love this so fuchsia much😅i can't get over it. I mean the cast the storyline the chemistry between the leads just can't get enough of it. My life will never be the same after this. The writers did us dirty only 4 episodes i can't believe this.

But this 4 episodes just freaking killed me. I was on the verge for the entire time. I was scared the entire time that the ML will die at the end but thankfully the FML did an amazing job in bringing him back to his senses.

I didn't understand if he actually fell for her but it felt that way. She was head over heels for him and well i understand her😅 i mean dude is hot as hell. And the fact that they paired up in F4 already just gived me a double satisfaction.

I had high expectations but the show was just okay. I think it could be great if they use a stronger storyline and more horror elements like by creating a sense of dread and suspense, introducing more frightening situations. I'm still excited for the next season though. It would be great if there was some chemistry between Bright and Fa, and even some romance . The drama was too short, consider extending the season to allow for a more comprehensive exploration of the storyline and character development. This can give the show to build tension and develop the plot. The acting was good btw.

Et hop, après avoir harponné chéri qui a une sainte horreur des dramas de ce genre, nous voilà après 4 épisodes à vouloir une deuxième saison. Même chéri qui fuit ce genre comme la peste.
Il faut dire que bien que certaines scènes puissent faire penser à de l'horreur, ce drama s'en éloigne rapidement.
L'intrigue se veut angoissante et pourtant les petites touches d'humour et la relation entre Fa et Ajin est divertissante et rendent ce drama agréable à suivre.
Le format court du drama nous permet d'aller à l'essentiel et de rentrer rapidement dans le vif du sujet. C'est appréciable, surtout si vous cherchez une petite pause après un drama de 40 épisodes par exemple. Si l'intrigue ne surprend pas vraiment, c'est assez bien ficelée et arrive à garder notre intérêt éveillé jusqu'à la dernière seconde.
La réalisation est très sympathique, dynamique et percutante avec une bande son qui captive notre attention tout au long de ces 4 épisodes.
Je ne dirais pas que c'est une perle, car je pense que les rôles secondaires manquent de profondeur, et malgré tout, la relation entre Fa et Ajin n'est pas assez intense pour nous émouvoir. Mais cela reste un bon drama qui a su tirer son épingle du jeu dans cette jungle de blockbuster de cet été.

Et puis, l'acteur qui fait son apparition à la fin, allez je vous l'avoue m'a mise dans tout mes états, voui, je n'ai pas honte de le dire, depuis "F4 Thailand", j'en suis totalement fan, et je croise donc les doigts si saison 2 il y a, de le voir, et surtout dans un rôle d'antagoniste!
