El amor va más allá de lo que podemos ver.
El final del episodio 9: Mhok y Day viendo el atrdecer de The Last Twilight, ese final donde Day queda cieo pero Mhok esta ahípara él. Simplemente una belleza.
Definitivamente creo que esta es una historia muy arriesgada, por el personaje de Day (Sea) pero este hizo un trabajo increíble. Mhok (Jimmy) fue gran protagonista de esta historia, ayudando a Day a crecer como persona, a ayudarle a ver las cosas buenas en sí mismo y a no dejar que se escondiera en su habitación por toda la vida. Es una historia muy optimista dónde el amor supera las barreras de las dificultades y dónde como una persona puede llegar a ser el apoyo de otra. Un final feliz, para una historia de amor increíble.
El hecho de hacer también una pareja hetero entre Night y Porjai (con hijos) es un detalle muy bonito, no me desagrada.

It was glorious
I actually really liked this one, I enjoyed watching it, had a great time, so much fun. However, As I've seen a couple of people say, I also wish that Mhok's trauma with his sister's death, and them kinda glazing over his fears with that in the last episodes kinda made me feel bad for him, I wish he could've had a good talk with Day about that and they kinda help each other through that. But honestly other than that I have no complaints! I think the cast did amazing, this was my first JimmySea series and I hope it won't be my last! they all did great! I loved all the side couples, and I think all of their female characters were well written too!Was this review helpful to you?

overly beautiful and emotional, deserves to be watched.
have to admit, this drama was on a whole new level! the idea of the story was so good, loved the adorable moments mhok and day had together.there are so many scenes i loved on a whole new level, i’m an isfp and if you are well documented you know well this type finds beauty in everything, and i can only admit EVEN MORE that this was like therapy for me. episode 9 made me felt as if i were the one becoming blind…
however, i have a small complain. why mhok’s story was so forgotten? i wanted to know more about his past, his prison life, his trauma, and more. i think we deserved a little bit more into his character. another thing i’m noting out are the last two eps, where the separation really felt unnecessary… if the director wanted a “last minute plot twist” i think he could’ve put something else instead, like mhok maybe getting into prison again or something.
nevertheless, this was beautiful. the aesthetic, everything. a 9.2/10 for me <3

Why?
So I Gotta say it was amazingThe chemistry between Mhok and Day was so good and they were so cute but for me the time skip in the last episodes were completely unnecessary! Tbh I was never a fan of time skips, I really don’t like them. Day breaking up with Mhok was very random, instead of a time skip, they should have talked it out or atleast stay In contact with each other. I can’t really like the fact that they haven’t talked for straight up 3 years. Was the job as cook really that necessary? I don’t think so, like in the end Mhok didn’t take the plane back as if it wasn’t important to keep the Job. Without the time skip I would rate this series a 100/10 but It was really random and I didn’t enjoyed it so just a 9/10.
I just talked about the bad things right now sorry, this series is still an amazing BL! All in all, the characters,acting,visuals,story(except the end lol) was full of beauty❤️❤️ I wish for another JimmySea series❤️

great start but horrible ending
started this show with high expectations, especially after seeing jimmysea's undeniable chemistry in vice versa, and the beginning of the show definitely fit my expectations. seeing day slowly lose his vision and cope with it, i found the show to be realistic and emotionally relatable, even though i havent had this experience before. it also helped me to learn more about blindness in general.BUT i do have to say that only up till ep 10 was the series actually really good. not sure what that ending was about, but i feel it defeats the whole purpose of the series. it would've been 10 time better if day had learned to live with his blindness but no, somehow he got the eye transplant and ended up getting his vision back. this was the whole reason why i paused watching the series for the last two episodes. the rest of the series was a emotional rollercoaster, though. p'aof's cameo was also absolutely insane, kudos to him for always directing the best series!!
anyways, no hate to any of the actors involved, the series was definitely fun to watch. thank you to jimmysea for making such an iconic series!! <3

i'd watch any series with those two leads blindly !
I've watched vice versa before ,that's why i have decided that i'd watch this ,they're both so talented.this drama is worth watching, though some reasoning is weak , "drama logic" of the background of mohk Character but jimmy absolutely did a great job that they broke my heart at one point, burst into tears at some moments fell in love and felt happy for them and that's how you know it was a good drama when they play your emotions and change your mood
One thing is worth applauding is how mature the Character were .
felt so good to have watched it definitely recommended.

Don’t let people’s opinions on the last two episodes stop you
I avoided watching this for a long time because I had read so many negative comments about the last two episodes, which is where a lot of actual issue resolution is handled. Ahead of those two, it was a mostly straightforward plot - meaningful and beautifully executed, but still a relatively simple plot. I actually think they could have expanded this to 16 episodes to really handle the issue resolution pieces better, but it is what it is. It’s a great show. It’s a more mature theme than other BLs. Don’t let the hype on the last two episodes keep you away - they aren’t bad. Without them, they would have left some pretty large (adult) plot issues unresolved. They aren’t handled *great* as-is, but at least they weren’t ignored.Was this review helpful to you?

Extremely offensive ableist ending that completely undercut the main point of the show. I genuinely am still shocked about it months later. Everyone who was involved with the decision to cure the blindness of the main character in the 11th hour (in a show that, to varying success levels admittedly, had actually seemed to be trying to portray how full and beautiful life can be while living with a disability) should be ashamed of themselves. I am haunted every day knowing how many people watched this show excited for the representation for it to only do that in the final act. Shameful, genuinely. Wish I could rate it lower.

Last Twilight: A Love Letter Lit by Fading Light
I laughed.I smiled.
I cried.
And somewhere in between, Last Twilight quietly cracked my heart open.
This wasn’t just a BL.
This was the slow, stunning story of two souls colliding in twilight —
Sea’s “Day,” once a vibrant badminton star, now watching his world blur to five inches of vision.
Jimmy’s “Mhok,” a man carrying debts deeper than money: trauma, guilt, and the weight of survival.
From episodes 1 to 10, we watched them fall in love one careful, courageous step at a time. The pacing is patient, the chemistry electric, and the growth deeply felt.
Day lives in a fortress of walls — literal and emotional — and Mhok breaks them all down with steady hands Day’s emotional walls fall. Mhok’s quiet resilience builds bridges. By the time their lips touch in episode 6, you’ve already fallen in love with them. He doesn’t just help Day see the world before he loses his sight — he teaches him how to live.
Every detail was near flawless:
🎵 The OSTs? Divine.
Sea and Jimmy’s versions of their duet? Hugged my soul.
Satang’s Slow Dance? Sentimental perfection.
William’s Last Twilight theme? A masterpiece I now fear. (If I ever go to his concert, I’m bringing earplugs. I will not cry in public again. I refuse. Maybe.)
🎬 The cinematography, the script, the direction — chef’s kiss.
And the acting? Not a single weak link.
Cream as Day’s mother? Heartbreaking and honest.
Kun as Aon? So convincing, I genuinely Googled if he was visually impaired in real life.
Mark, Namtan, Film, Ohm, Emi — each one adding real weight and warmth to this story.
But let’s be clear:
Sea and Jimmy carried this show into legend status.
Sea’s transformation was nothing short of brilliant — especially his nuanced portrayal of internal resistance, vulnerability, and growth. Jimmy matched every beat with tenderness, restraint, and that signature twinkle-in-the-eyes kind of care.
Their chemistry? Palpable.
Their love? Earned.
Now the But...
I don’t hand out 10s lightly — and I didn’t here.
I gave it a 9.
Why?
Because episodes 11 and 12… faltered.
Day’s arc was on the brink of brilliance. Episode 11 had him finally using the cane, accepting his blindness not as a weakness, but as a part of himself. It resonated deeply — especially for viewers with visual impairments. A friend told me, “We can deal with hatred, even disgust. But pity? That’s what makes us feel truly small.”
Day’s refusal to be pitied — even by Mhok — made sense. Their breakup, though painful, was a believable and necessary beat in their growth.
But then… episode 12.
Suddenly the cane’s gone.
The assistive devices vanish.
His independence — earned through 10 episodes of struggle and learning — is nowhere to be seen.
And it hurt.
Because this story almost gave us the full picture of disability with dignity.
And then backed away at the finish line. That final step of representation? Left incomplete.
🌠 Final Thoughts
Last Twilight was a gift.
Soft. Sharp. Soulful.
It tackled disability, trauma, grief, and queer love with grace — all without falling into clichés.
I gave it a 9 because it almost stuck the landing.
But make no mistake — this was one of GMMTV’s finest.
And Sea? Give him every award. Every. Single. One.
But still:
An unforgettable watch.
A story about love without pity, about healing through connection, and about the beauty of twilight — even as darkness falls.
💔 (And I still can't listen to that OST without crying.)

Let’s talk about Mhok
As this series highlights on Day’s life, I hope this review gives some insight on Mhok’s characters and my brief thoughts on episode 12 (spoiler-free).From what I gathered throughout the episodes, the Last Twilight is not only the story of a blind man (Day) who feared of society’s perception because he was once a beloved national athlete.
This is also the story of an orphan (Mhok) who struggled to integrate back into the society because he was once a convict with unresolved trauma.
I would like to commend on Mhok for his love, support, commitment and devotion in Day's day-to-day life. He rebuilds Day’s confidence (like a mechanic) and helping Day to face the outside world, once again as a blind man.
Since the series begins with Mhok’s flawed and woeful past, I feel this series should ends with Mhok redeems himself by forgiving himself over his past.
Mhok is a person who tries his best for others despite being too tough on himself. He is a person with tough exterior but also with insecurities which mainly kept to himself - e.g: how society treated him as a convict, trauma over the lost of family member, power imbalance and social status between him and Day, the feeling of inferiority with his capability to provide and care for Day.
Mhok’s issues should be explored on later episodes, however this can only happen - if and only if Day reciprocates by trying to understand where Mhok’s insecurities stem from.
Maybe an extra episode to explore this will be suffice?
In my opinion, this series should ends with a relatable yet heartfelt lesson of how these two unfortunate characters heal their relationship. And also for Mhok to absolve himself over his past, giving himself the closure he needed the most.
[note of reference: Moonlight Chicken (2023) explored the complexity of different characters overcoming the loss of loved ones and going through phases of denial, grief, healing and acceptance - e.g.: ideally the relationship of Alan and Wen, Jim and Beam, Gaipa and his mom/ Jim].
About the second half of episode 12, perhaps the screenwriter and director were hoping to dedicate this part to a specific audience - e.g.: the blind community.
This might be why episode 12 has a fairytale-like ending, where there might be a chance in life that the intended audience could once see again.
Nonetheless the cinematography, soundtrack and locations chosen for this series are equally pleasing and beautiful.

A near perfect bl that suffered from bad finale syndrome
Episodes 1-9 were some of the best episodes in a bl I've ever seen and I binged them so quickly, but I felt myself struggling to watch 10-12. It was as if the writers forgot what made this series so special and even the key qualities that made the characters who they were, taking away any of their development. The whole story was about how Day was normal (and how people with disabilities are normal) but in a monologue in the finale he talks about someone blind not being normal? I genuinely don't think Day should have gotten the surgery because it erased his growth throughout the series and felt slightly disrespectful. Mhok was an amazing character, probably one of my favorite characters in any bl, but in the finale it was like he was a completely different person. I am also just not a fan of time skips especially if they are just there because the writers couldn't figure out how to end a series. I was pleasantly surprised with Night's journey throughout the show. At first I really didn't like Night but he quickly became my favorite (especially after they ruined Mhok). Night isn't a typical character that I would like (considering he's not queer and you don't see much of him) but I related so much to him. I can relate to that feeling of when you make a huge mistake but don't know how to fix it, and when you try to fix it, it just makes it worse and worse to the point that you feel like you can't do anything correctly. When Night cried because they acknowledge his favorite food it really got me because something as small as that was so moving to him because of how neglected he was feeling in his family. Overall a good series and JimmySea were amazing (my first series I've seen from them but their chemistry was great!). And at the end of the day, the only reason I feel so strongly about the bad final episodes is because of my love for the first 9 in the series.Was this review helpful to you?
Unexpectedly extraordinary
JimmySea have not gotten any exceptional roles so far – ViceVersa fell a little flat and felt like unfulfilled potential – but their effort has paid off in Last Twilight. Every detail in the show demonstrates how they have paid attention to the little things.And then there’s Mark Pakin. who has once again proven to be a versatile actor with range. The scene of him eating beef stew and exchanging a few (seemingly innocuous but profoundly meaningful) sentences with his mother and brother was probably one of the most skilfully-executed scenes.
The storyline isn't terribly original (unlikely caretaker becomes the caretaker of a privileged person with a disability) but it has superb execution: Exceptional chemistry, thoughtful writing, and spectacular acting.
Some fans took issue with the ending of episode 11 (the famed the episode 11 curse strikes back), and I thought there could have been a less abrupt way around it. But all in all, nothing too damaging that it completely wrecks the other merits of the show.
This one will go in the history books as a love story to rewatch.
