Love reborn
Day and Mhok were wonderful. Their acting was exceptional. This whole story was engaging and poignant. I loved it! I will definitely watch it again and again. The actor who portrayed Mhok had a very expressive face. He would be excellent at any role he played. I hope both ML's do more shows together and even ones that they act individually.This story had a strong sense of family and redemption. The book"Last Twilight" read throughout the series was interesting and kept you going from page to page.Was this review helpful to you?
Emotional and Beautiful
I started watching the series after episode 3 had aired because I saw people raving about it. How easily attached they got to the characters, how touched they are by the story. And what they said was all true. I got hooked so quickly. The chemistry between the leads is wonderful. The show is so good at giving you these emotional moments that make you wonder why am I so touched? Why am I crying? What just happened?The cute stuff is stinking cute. The emotional stuff hits you in the face. The show hurts you on the regular but you are also happy about it.
This is not a fast paced show. This show is for everyone who enjoys characters getting to know each other better, enjoying each other's company, growing in the process.
The acting is so good. Everyone delivered but especially Jimmy and Sea. Both are such expressive actors. Their eyes and faces say it all. If someone watched Vice Verca before and is on the fence because of it, fear not. The acting truly is top notch.
Stand out episodes for me are episodes 3 and 9. These episodes especially did something to my heart.

If only Day was less ungrateful...
First of all, I'd like to apologize in advance to everyone who likes Day as a character, because he pissed me off so much that this review is going to be aimed at him in particular.This drama started off SOO strong. The first five episodes completely hooked me because of their potential, the interesting dynamic between the two protagonists, and the gentle way they slowly grew closer.
However, the moment August started becoming part of the picture, it was as if Day completely lost all common sense, or maybe he simply started showing his true colors through a series of completely irrational decisions. Let me explain.
Before Day reconnects with his badminton friends, there's a genuine bond between him and Mhok. You can see how attentive Mhok is, how respectfully he treats him, how patient, gentle and understanding he is. But the moment August comes back, it's as if none of that closeness had ever existed.
He even refuses to date Mhok because he "doesn't like bad boys."
But... what??? What bad boy??? It's obvious that Mhok is only a bad boy aesthetically (if even that). That genuinely drove me insane. It was like Day didn't know him at all, like he was living in complete denial. He clearly felt all of Mhok's affection, yet somehow he keeps denying every bit of it.
The truth is, Day is selfish and ungrateful. And that's something he actually admits himself. He "used to be a cocky badminton player", going blind wasn't what taught him humility. He still lives in a golden cage. He loves the sound of his own voice, he always needs to be the center of attention, and nowhere is that more obvious than in the relationship he has with his brother.
The hatred he has for his brother is completely incomprehensible to me, especially once we find out where it comes from. It was never the accident that fueled his resentment. What really bothered him was the fact that his brother tried to step into the role of an 'older brother' and be seen as a good person by everyone.
Once again, Day completely misses the point. What he actually hates is that, one day, his brother stole the spotlight from him. He doesn't like his brother's kindness because he thinks it's hypocritical?? Seriously, what are people even supposed to do for you, Day?
You hate awkward acts of kindness, you hate people feeling sorry for you... Is there anything someone can do that won't annoy you? This guy is unbearable.
And actually, THIS STORY IS REALLY ABOUT BLINDNESS.
And don't even get me started on the ending, because it made me lose my mind.
Day is the first person to say that you don't need your eyes to truly see, yet he spent the entire drama completely blind to the love Mhok had for him.
In the end, he remains deeply self-centered and unable of recognizing the love people have for him because he constantly mistakes his disability for his identity, and compassion for pity.
That's exactly why the breakup in the final episodes drove me absolutely insane. Day decides (as always) to end the relationship because his partner supposedly pitied him.
Sorry, but here's my take. Mhok wasn't pitying him, he was simply in love. He wanted to be close to the person he loved instead of being on the other side of the planet. He wanted to stay by his side because he cared about him. For once in his life, he wanted to be there for someone he loved. And Day completely ruined everything by confusing Mhok's endless love with pity...
This guy has absolutely no idea what love actually is.
Even in their relationship, everything revolves around him. As far as I'm concerned, Mhok is the only one actually fighting to make the relationship work. He's the only one constantly walking on eggshells every time this insufferable spoiled rich kid decides to throw another tantrum.
Thankfully, Mhok has the patience of a saint and apparently very little self-respect to come back to him three years later. I honestly thought this would finally be the moment where Day apologized to Mhok. But of course not, this guy never questions himself. Mhok apologizes for God knows what reason (thankfully love really is blind LOL), only for this idiot to turn to his mother and say:
"But how do I know if I gave him a second chance he won't repeat what he did?"
Once again, I have to ask... What exactly did he do? Someone please enlighten me because I genuinely still don't get it.
He refuses to give Mhok a second chance, immediately regrets it, runs after him at the airport, and Mhok, after having his heart broken about thirty times by this indecisive jerk, still decides to dance with him... and love him, Forever, on top of that.
Honestly, good for him.
"I'd rather lose somebody than use somebody," said The Neighbourhood. Day, on the other hand, would much rather use somebody who love him.
At the end of the day, Day got everything he ever wanted. A loving family. A RICH family. Because let's not forget that the reason he got his eyesight back was, above all, because of his privilege. And he has someone by his side who loves him unconditionally and, fortunately for Day, seems perfectly happy surviving on love alone. Good for him.
Even though Day regained his sight, he'll always be blind in my eyes, because he never managed to see the beauty of the love Mhok had for him.

Masterpiece
They honestly couldn't have done any better with this series. The story was well written, the acting was superb, the music complimented every emotion, the series is a masterpiece. Their are very few shows that can draw you in with a slow burn of just pure emotions. From their first meeting I could not believe how simple, but effectively written their meeting was. Complemented beautifully by some amazing acting, where the chemistry could be felt from the TV. Sea and Jimmy had me from the moment he made his come for his ID. The perfect setup for the rollercoaster to come.They took such a sensitive situation and they did it with so much realism and respect. The main characters handled their parts so well and the very important sub-characters that normalised what they have to live with just by being in their lives. It was very well done, showing all the facets of how one problem affects everyone in various ways, even if it isn't your problem. Nothing was hard and fast, the buildup moving through every emotion was a treat, I felt like I lived in his triumphs, his failures, his fear, his disappointments. I didn't love every moment of it, but I loved every moment of it. Love, fear, heartache, sacrifice and growth are all parts of life and they surely displayed this during the series. Even though most of the series was on the aftermath of an incident, having all the back stories perfectly timed and placed made everything even more memorable.
The chemistry between all of the cast was a delight, the reveal of the cause was simple but I got a deeper understanding of why the brothers dynamics was so raw in the beginning. Having Night's pain be felt with every interaction he had with Day, only to find out why it was so painful made their relationship mean so much more to me. He is truly a great big brother, despite his mistakes. Their mother, was exactly that, their mother. She didn't always have a good display of balance between caring for her children, but that is understandable given the circumstances, doesn't make it okay, but she tried and got better at it towards the end. Though it was simply beef stew, at least she remembered it was two children she needs to always show love to.

There're some things I would change, but it was perfect overall.
It broke my heart knowing they were apart for three years but I understand that it was needed, Mhok could heal his wounds and traumas and Day learned to live happily with his blindness, even if it was difficult. I just wish they didn't put that dialogue of him saying he forgot how to be happy when he was blind, it's like erasing all his progression.And while I thought it would've been nice if they kept the blindness representation until the very end I don't dislike Day getting his vision back, because the series showed he did live a happy and normal life while being blind during those three years.
Porjai and Night getting the family they deserved after everything was completely beautiful and their wedding was all I needed to see.
The OST was on point too, the filmography and locations were perfect.

Watched it for the third time, still amazing
Last Twilight was my introduction to JimmySea and I have never regretted deciding to watch this. I just watched this for the third time, slowly watching it over the past few months. Its incredibly fun and enjoyable to rewatch even over a long period of time.This is one of the best modern queer stories out here and also a great introduction into the world of Thai queer media. This story doesn't particularly focus on the fact that this is a queer love story, which is one of the reasons I love it. I love a good conversation on queer topics but it's also refreshing to see a story where the two people are just in love with eachother regardless of identity! It tackles topics like grief, disabilitys, loneliness, dreams and so so much more.
I will praise JimmySea's performance to the end of time. They bring these characters to life and make everything seem so incredibly real. You can tell they put their all into this piece of art, it really shows.
Though I love this to death. It is not perfect. My only really meangful criticism is that the story and pacing isn't the cleanest, especially towards the end. I noticed it way more rewatching it, because I'd have a harder time picking it back up again. On first watch though, it's hardly noticeable. I get criticism on the ending, but personally I wasn't as bothered by it as I thought I was. Without spoiling it, they do what you don't want them to do. And somehow you walk out of it pleased with the show.
10/10 please please watch it
I want to watch MMP again now..

This was beautiful
I'm not exaggerating when I say this show is beautiful. The story, the script, the acting, the score, the visuals, everything about this show was done so well. This show is legitimately one of the best shows I've ever watched. I think I have a thing for jimmysea but it's not only them. Mark, namtan, film, ohm, truly an amazing cast. I love the fact they didn't make day's mother perfect nor too mean/bad. I also really relate to Night and hes actually my favorite character. The level of impact episode 9 has on me is astronomical and you wouldn't fully understand if you didn't watch the earlier episodes. Truly an amazing show and one of gmmtvs best.Was this review helpful to you?
