A Brink of Hope that we all need.

Last Twilight gave us another representation of living as a blind person, and a love that they deserve. The series does not only revolve on Day, as part of the representation, but also this series covers the in-depth reality of what is happening in our current situation today. Every character in this story mirrors the realistic struggles and stigma in every aspect of life: whether it be health, relationship, parenting, family, unhealed traumas and etc; and each one of them represents the emotions that is set to reality: validation, epiphany, fear, hopeful, remorse, guilt, denial, disappointment, frustration, and happiness.

This series can catch the viewers’ attention and have a divided perspective on how they perceive every scene that were put as you run through it. The viewers may not easily empathize the situations especially if they don’t have any experience. Before you watch this series, keep an open mind and do not let your emotions control you because you will get to appreciate the series and how it brought wonders, that led them to be one of the highest rated, not only GMM but also to the entire BL series released of all-time.

There are a lot of takeaways that you can learn out of this series such as, but not limited to: being able to live normally, stepping outside your comfort zone, stages of grief that most of us are going through whenever we have upheavals, rejected relationships and perspective distortion. This series might also deceive you that you might get out of touch with reality because of how domestic the relationship the main couple displayed their affection throughout, however, there’s a balance of everything that was well put together. I have never seen such BL series with plots like this and depicted the realistic tone of life, that it’s not only love is the only solution for us to live happily, but also the sense of individualism and growth that we all need in order to move forward and grow as individuals so that when time comes for us to settle in (on your discretion) a relationship and uncertainty, we already come to terms that we must heal ourselves before our castle will only eventually crumble if we don’t make peace to ourselves.

Let me put my thoughts on each aspect: Story, Acting, Music and Rewatch Value

Story – 9.5/10

This story is one of Aof’s passion projects instead of getting the actors popular by this point as what I can perceive. He didn’t instrumentalize someone’s disability for his works to be more popular, but its purpose is mainly for us to empathize with the struggles of being a disabled person. Not only by being blind but also other disabilities and how we treat them on a normative situation like they are ‘special’ that we have negative connotations about them like how he also gave a representation of the deaf in Moonlight Chicken. He didn’t only use disability as the main story’s medium, but also the realistic view of hope that is divided in two ways, the cognitive distortion to our own beliefs because what we best believe is proven to be already the ‘best’ we can think of, carrying the burden of the things we never get to do when someone’s still by our side and how we can transfer it unconsciously to the one we love and philosophical concept of black and white. Together with Aof’s direction and how the novel was written, the synergy of the two came into slight changes and how it was done perfectly without us asking as to ‘why’ and ‘how’ things happen because at the end of every struggle, there’s a message of ‘hope’ we can get and it will make us more feel motivated to live in our terms. This story is truly inspiring, and everyone will feel validated because what happens in the series also reflects to our own struggles which will make us more engaged and relatable.

Acting – 10/10

Aof choosing Jimmy and Sea to portray Mhok and Day is the best move. As I watched the pilot trailer from GMMTV 2023, I can see now why they are meant to be Mhok and Day and how it suits them given their work before like Vice Versa can also resonate to Last Twilight. Not only Jimmy and Sea, but they put all the best actors by far: Namtan, Mark, Ohmtpk and Film like where will you find a series that there will be a perfect lineup. I have never seen this kind of series to have the best lineup and each other them delivered everything they can offer. As we saw them on their previous works, this has led them to put an extreme effort and showcase what they can show on top of their best performances before. All of them improved especially Jimmy and Sea. With all the GMMTV’s BL couples, they are a breath of fresh air with Vice Versa as an experimental introduction incorporated with a new concept. We saw another side of him that most of us cannot visualize how he will pull off Day and Mhok, and how they can pull of heavier roles. They deserve more works to be honest, I hope GMM can take advantage of the success.

Music – 10/10

As someone who is really into music (not a music major), one of the most important things that I’m looking for in a series is how they were able to put the instrumentals and OSTs. The OSTs for this series is at the top-tier, together with the strings that made us feel the anxiety over what comes next, and also how they are being executed was well put together. One Palm Distance gave us the nostalgia, centennial and vintage vibe that made us want to dance with grace; Blame the Stars brought us two version that bring us comfort and romantic feeling and Last Twilight that made us all cry. If GMM can release a cassette or vinyl version of Last Twilight’s OSTs then I am definitely seated to buy a CD.

Rewatch Value – 10/10

Having a couple with JimmySea and how rare they appear on the public events; this is a worth of rewatch to feel another roller coaster ride. Just prepare your tissues and again, do not let your emotions control you. Rewatching this will give you another perspective and how this series is perfectly made that will let you gain a new perspective and eliminate the biases that isn’t necessary for growth.

At the end of the day, what we want the best of ourselves is growth so that one day we can reflect our past version of ourselves, we can tell how much we have come this far and we are ready to step forward again to enter again in a healthy relationship (not only with love, but also to the society) with an open mind and heart.

Had to drop this tedious drama

I would like to kind of say sorry for the review to GMMTV, since I love them for being so sincere and professional, and for giving me so many great titles to watch. In less than one year, I have watched over 40 Gmmtv dramas.

Wow, what a slow and boring ride this was! Even after fast-forwarding so much, I could not finish it. I watched up until episode 8.

1. Lousy plot: Nothing much happens. There was first a het drama where Mhok's ex finds a new jerky boyfriend (she clearly has a problem loving the bad guys), but Mhok wants to be the white knight protector of his ex by starting fights with the bf. This kind of het issue I did not want to see in BL. The girl was good-looking, though. (I am a bi man.)

2. Sea's acting as Day was pretty bad -- he seems to have a wide-toothed smile through many scenes (like even when he was complaining bitterly about his brother somewhere in episode 8 or 9. He has very few other expressions. Day was also an entitled brat, who did nothing much for the relationship except protect his fragile ego and complain. Day wanted to protect his car from his brother Knight's vomit while driving, and instead of blaming no-one or blaming himself, Day keeps blaming Night for years.

3. Jimmy acted very well, and he has become more good-looking than in Bad Buddy. I think he fixed his overbite and put on some muscle. Mhok, was, however, too accommodating and patient with Day -- for a hot-tempered guy who constantly got into fights, Mhok was too nice after the first couple of episodes. I read in reviews that he becomes even worse at the end, and that is why I did not finish the show. I don't know how Mhok could put up with that brat Day, but I guess it is his savior complex.

4. I liked August a lot. I like his soft looks, and he had character, apologizing promptly and profusely when he made a (well-intentioned) mistake. That drama was the last plot element until where I stopped watching.

Will no-one give me another Bad Buddy?

A disappointing story for a disappointing day

No. Just nope. Didn't feel it, didn't like it. I was prepared for controversial end episodes, but nobody prepared me for just "not feeling it". I didn't feel any chemistry, any emotions, any love, especially from Day towards Mhok. That's why the love triangle trope gave me such a harsh time. In the end it seemed to me as exactly oppositte of what's said - seemed like Day is pitting Mhok for having feelings for Day a thus agreeing on being boyfriends. Rushed af from having a crush on August to kissing with Mhok. Not to mention the fact that Mhok from "you're not my type" point had to carry all the chasing and basically be a substitute for Augustus with fricking "August was better" lines from Day. Not surprised that I felt like Day just settled with Mhok and I felt really sorry for Mhok as I'm very triggered about these kinds of relationships, taking it as the one (Day) is just exploiting the love from the other (Mhok).
Dropped after 8th episode, even though I wanted to watch this till the end as an excuse for not working on weekends. Suddenly the work seemed as time spent better than this.

Felt like a breath of fresh air.

This is the first time I'm posting a review since I've created this account .

This is series is simply a breath of fresh air...the acting...the cast...the chemistry between the leads...just 4 episodes in and I'm already in love with everything.

After seeing two leads, I already had high expectations and I'm beyond satisfied. From start of episode one to end of episode 4, I didn't stop smiling once. Looking forward to episode 5.

If you're contemplating whether to watch this series or not, I advise you to watch it. Trust me, you most definitely won't be disappointed.

A gem you shouldn’t skip!!!

If you feel overwhelmed and bored by tons of blank BL series out there, this one will definitely give you back the appetite for this genre.
Not only directed by outstanding director, the cast includes talented and experienced actors and actresses. The OST is candy to your ears, and BGM is also top notch.
The other most important thing is its promising and logical plot, up to now. This series doesn’t persuade viewers to stick to it by using countless unnecessary hot scenes like what other nonsense BL series is doing. Instead, it completely won over your heart by how natural the story goes and each character develops their personal traits.

an incredible addition to recent bls

i watched "last twilight" right after watching "vice versa" and, even if at first thinking it was not the best idea, having to see an abrupt change in character personality coming from the same actor, after finishing it, it was sO worth it.
first, every performance is superb, and in my opinion the highlight of the series, especially towards the end, and it's visible how both mains have evolved as professionals and as a duo since 2022. second, the series just gets better? it explores something we've been seeing a lot in recent bls which are disabilities and instead of it being a collective issue to the relationship, focusing more on how disabled people are perceived vs how they would like to be perceived and their partner's journey into understanding that.

The Last Twilight Series is personally my number one top BL series! If you want to experience a roller coaster of emotions, this series is for you. Here are some points to check:
1. You will fall in love with the actors. Jimmy and Sea portrayed themselves excellently! They are so comfortable with each other. It’s real and genuine. I fell in love with this series primarily because of them. I felt happy and secured all the way out. Their iconic gesture, "One palm distance," will always be remembered. Their characters, Mhok and Day, will always have a huge special place in my heart! Let me give praise as well to Mark Pakin and Namtan. Their chemistry has added extra flavor to the series. Another mention is for the other supporting actors: Film, Ohm, Kun Kunchanuj, Cream, Jugg, Emi, Thames, and Rang. They were all important in the series. Without them, Last Twilight wouldn't have been outstanding.
2. I would also like to commend how beautiful the cinematography is. It was well shot! My favorite are the scenes that were taken from Songkhla—so remarkable! I would also like to give credit to those scenes that were taken along the busy roads of Thailand. It was kind of challenging, but executed superbly.
3. Let me not forget how beautiful the OST is! Everybody fell in love with it. These are collections of heartfelt songs that hit straight from the heart! By the way, it is now out on different music platforms. Don't forget to stream!
4. If you are too hooked on the series, it will be hard for you to pick your favorite scene and episode. But if you're going to ask me, my favorite scene will be the Khao Kuha Mountain scene in Ep9! I have shed tons of tears in this scene! If you want to know why, go check it out! As for the episode, I would probably pick EP12. I know some may disagree with me, but please hear me out. There are some points that I considered about why this is my favorite. One is the character's aura; I was really amazed at how I could differentiate between the old and new versions of Mhok and Day just by looking at them. I don't know why, but I felt it that way. Stunning! Second, there were three distinctive words that I’ve learned while watching: chance, hope, and acceptance. It was clearly brought up in this episode. The last is the act of true love. Mhok and Day have been apart for 3 years with no communication, but as they crossed paths once again, their love for each other prevailed.
5. Lastly, I would like to emphasize how the message of the series had a big impact on their viewers. It's all on point! Some may not be satisfied and ask for more, but for me, it is perfect! It's message clearly conveyed me! There is nothing to ask for! I am pleased.
Before I finish this review, I would like to personally thank P'Aof and the rest of the team for giving us such a masterpiece! I know how you have worked hard just to make sure this series will hit, and yes! I am 100% sure that all your hard work paid off! You guys deserve all the praise and awards in the future! Cheers! Thank you for this series, and thank you for introducing us to the love and venture of Mhok and Day!
This isn’t goodbye, but till next time! Much love from me and the rest of the nomnoms all over the world! 💜🩵

I become obsessed with JimmySea ??

tbh, I watched this because i am into with ohm thipakorn and knew he was in this show so i watched it for him at first and boom i got hooked with jimmysea!

I have loved the show already since the first ep because the story is interesting. Ep 1-10 was truly wholesome until ep 11 and 12 comes and at the last part of ep 11 got me like 'eh?' where day broke up with mhok for such a petty reason for me though idk it's just like their break up scene was not really that necessary to happen but it happened.

The ending was okay though but it didn't gave me the way i wanted it to ended. after the break up and the next ep went "3 years ago" like wth? how in the world took them so long to get back together cuz I'd be alright if it passed just a year but "3 years ago" really got me and day was still blind after 3 years??

Well, that's the only i wanted to pointed out but nevertheless i still got hooked with the characters and the actors. and the ost of this series is MASTERPIECE i must say best ost bl i have listened to. i have listened to the song every day.
