Reloved

Terrible. Too many misunderstandings for my liking.

*MASSIVE SPOILER*
I got to episode 5 and dropped it. BUT I was wanting to see if misunderstandings were ever cleared so I waited til episode 10 came out then skipped around. It took 8 episodes. Than just forgives Akin from keeping everything from him, leaving, not letting Than explain, and being a complete ass to Than.
I was rooting for Pond and Don. Really the only reason that I even got to episode 5. I don't understand why they just killed off Don like WTF was that for. It was so random and uncalled for.
Pond crying so hard then at the wedding too. Breaks my heart that the writers would do that. Knowing Pond and Don had up and downs. I thought they were gonna overcome everything and be end game, then it was like nope sorry.
Also Than being obsessive of Akin and the past, like let that bs go. I mean I get he wants to know why Akin left but Akin was set on not telling him. Moving in next door. Come on now. I was cringing so hard.
The only scenes I really watched were the ones with Don and Pond and with the employees at the company. The employees were great and kept the series going too.
ANYWAYS it was a terrible show for me. If you care more about the second main couple (Don and Pond), I don't recommend to watch since it doesn't end well. Ngl I wish I just didn't start it back up after 5 so I wouldn't be so disappointed about Don and Pond. 😭
Also, I RARELY write reviews. I had to on this one cause it pissed me off.
Despite all this, the acting was good for everyone. They all had chemistry.
I'm strictly reviewing it based on the plot. There's more to the plot that made it bad in my opinion BUT I'm not getting into that. The death was the number 1 in my book. Some say it was good and I respect that SO respect my opinion as well for giving it a low rating. We all have our preferences.

Comeback Relationship Trope

i didn't expect that this series would be good knowing that I'm not familiar with the main cast. but overall, this series is so underrated to the fact that i see negative comments here. those narrow minded people wouldn't understand how good the storyline as much as i do. it may be toxic to see for others since the other main character stuck on his ex but think of it as well that it also happens in real life. there are also exes who's going back to each other again. though i understand that they don't have a proper communication back then and it may look like a stupid reason to see for others but if you guys were on their shoes, it may be hard for you to tell since it's a huge problem to deal with.

i didn't expect as well for the plot twist in each episodes that make it more catchy to audiences. about the second couple situation, it's a shame that khun don died in an accident and it is only in pond's mind where he finally got a chance to say "i love you" to him. though it's already justified, but it would be better if khun don was alive so that they also have a moment together in the final episode.

but overall, this story is worth to watch and worth to rewatch as well, it justifies the bad reputation of someone who has coming back to his ex. it also proves here that "first love never dies" and it will always have a chance to comeback to each other again.

#bringDonback

I honestly think this is a very good series. The actors did a great job with their performances, and the overall production was really well done. However, there is one thing I’m still upset about—Don’s death. Seriously, why did they have to kill him? Let my man live! I was low-key watching the series mostly for Don and Pond, and Don was such a babygirl character that it made it even harder to watch him die. I was literally crying my eyes out during that scene.

One thing I really loved about the show was how well the music matched the mood of each scene. For example, when a scene was sad, the music became emotional, and when things got more intense or “spicy,” the music reflected that too. It really helped make the moments feel more powerful.

I do think it took a little too long for the main couple to get back together, but I liked how the show let us see what their relationship was like in the past and how much it had changed over time. That made their development feel more meaningful.

Overall, I’d give this series an 8.5/10. I would highly recommend watching it if you haven’t already—and if you have, it’s definitely worth a rewatch

Its bad but not even cute enough to be a guilty pleasure

First of all the good. It come with good production values, and the cast makes the best of what they have been given. The 2nd LC have start off with the better story arc , the 1st LC, well that's literally another story. You grasp the setting very quickly and from there it should have been an entertaining few hours. How wrong could I be.

I have no idea what the writer or directer was trying to do, apart from fill time. The Ist couple goes a round with a circle of mis communication which could have been settled in by ep 5. The whole misunderstanding and miscommunication is so strung along to the point it is tedious.
The writer seems to not be able to give his characters a whole range of human emotions, and doest seem to understand that being in love does not mean you have to be a doormat of accepting of someone faults and one characters purpose just seemed to suffer and be treated like a doormat and have no reaction. You never get the feeling that they are a realistic couple.
I am not even going to address the story of the 2LC, because there is no way to avoid a spoiler.

The surrounding characters are just props to fill the space with no based in reality emotions but special mention should be made of the complete understanding of children’s needs and possible untidy reactions. The children are of course drama unicorn children, clean, tidy. obedient and look good. This normally is perhaps acceptable but as the children were a huge part of the plot and the fact they behave like emotional robots makes the whole situation even less realistic. Children are lovely, but they are often the cause of much disruption in life, after mum and dad the next word they learn to say is no, with all the tantrums that go with it, they are not an accessory you can just move around and will go with the flow. Some how it ends up as a mismatch of a very unrealistic family drama, and long lukewarm romance which tackles none of the real issues of blended families.

Episode 10. This is just a huge time filler, and supposed to tie up all the ends, like a mess of wool suddenly becomes a neatly knitted jumper, and it has one of the most trite, lets appease the people who are unhappy ends ever.
If you survive to ep 6 and you like it perhaps its for you, but for me it has so many faults, miss opportunities and lack of understanding human emotions. Perhaps it would have worked better as a short vertical drama because it would have less time to repeat the same scenes.

Second couple stole the show!

This was a good drama to watch, the story was ok, the visuals stunning and the music beautiful.
All actors did a great job.
The chemistry between the mains was good and so were the intimate scene's. I loved how smooth Than was with his flirting.

But for me the second couple stole the show, their chemistry and intimate scene's were amazing!! They also had me crying several times, you could feel their pain, that's how good their acting was.
Right after finishing this series i rewatched the parts with Don and Pond and they had me crying my eyes out again. That last scene of them in episode 10 broke my heart.
I really hope to see that couple in many more drama's.

I may watch this again sometimes, but i will mostly watch for the second couple. I will probably just rewatch the Don/Pond parts.

I was genuinely so happy when I started watching Reloved. I had high hopes and thought the story was going somewhere meaningful. But as the episodes went on, everything just became more and more confusing, to the point where I slowly started losing interest. Instead of feeling invested, I felt frustrated and disappointed because nothing seemed to make sense anymore.
And killing Don was my breaking point. That was the final line for me. I honestly don’t understand why they would do that — it completely ruined any hope I had left for a happy ending. I was emotionally invested and wanted something satisfying, something that felt worth the journey. Instead, I was left with a stupid, heartbreaking mess that just felt unnecessary 😢

What we could've had.

I went into this show really excited. Saw some of the promo with the premise being about two guys rekindling and old love. HOW WRONG THAT WAS. Let me discuss the elephant in the room which is the STORYLINE. The main issue was stupid and a simple convo or even argument could have solved it. I get maybe akin being hurt but with how long they drew it out all it did was make both of them look like pushovers. Because for akin he raise the man he thought cheated on him kid to let him have a better future 🤦‍♀️. Not even that continued to engage with him when they re met and gave no reason as to why he was so mad at him. This could have been a good plot if they had the conflict for a few ep then made the rest about them navigating the after and trying to rekindle.

Now I'll get into the reasoning for me dropping. After 4/5 ep of the main cp drama i completely gave up because it was obvious they were pointing to the Mawin not being Thans. I really enjoyed the second couple. Their plot was interesting and I quite enjoyed their chemistry. I will say the who change from casual to bf's was not that well discussed but overall they were fun and fresh air from the mains. Then ep 8. When they had to ruin what was good with whatever that was. Killing him off threw me off the show completely. I had no desire to continue after that even with people saying their may be a fake death plot. Because that alone would have been stupid.

Side note:
I did end up skimming the last two ep and I am glad I choose to drop. It was nothing if not in the same fashion as the rest of the show.

There was no need for this to happen!

This ain't the worst bl series but ain't the best either. It was kind of promising at the beginning but that thought slowly faded away with every new episode. The main couple was cute but a bit too much if you ask me. The so called
'misunderstanding' should have been cleared up already.
They just playing cat and mouse. And then we have the second lead couple...! GOT A SECOND LEAD SYNDROME AT ONCE. But no, they had to ruin it all. Don dying?!????
What the heck? When I reached the 8th episode, I realised I'm dropping it and came to share my irritation here. I was soooo ready to see how they turn out to be! The lead couple was the second for me and PondDon were the leads hahaha! But damnnnn! They killed the poor guy! And because I saw a video of him appearing somewhere later on, I didn't believe it at first, but then after the funeral part | just paused it and searched to see if it's for real or not on the net. And it is! Wow! I'm devastated! They shouldn't have done that! I bet they are not just my favourite couple! People loved them! I have seen so many of their edits and almost none of the other couple😭 It broke my heart seeing Pond cry. I loved their, kind of strange, chemistry! And I do hope to see them somewhere else just the two of them as the leads! No hate for the other couple or actors at all, just the plot could have been better.

Second Couple Phenomena

Overall not bad , actually good.
But as my preferences are more to happy happy, the misunderstandings , by the way so stupid misunderstandings are giving to much Angst and Sadness.
Now to the real motive of writing this - THE SECOND COUPLE.
So many dramas the Second Couple just steal the show. This is the same here. The Main Couple is good as well, has flash back of “interesting” scenes but the 2nd Couple is just so cute with the mismatched characters but still cuteeeee.


BIG SPOILER - as i sow the divorce era is in ep 7 for 2ndC. Wanna watch and at the same time dont.
🫣😫😖

My own thoughts on the show

The drama does make sense when you go halfway from episode 7 to 11 when it comes to the second pair the first pair story was stretched out, not due to their fault, but the people who made the drama in the first place, acting was fine to me 🙃 besides, nothing is perfect. No drama is perfect. Not even this one, but I don’t think the cursing is really necessary when people leave reviews on dramas.🥹 I don’t leave reviews on this page ever . This is my first one and I think the resurrection was the smartest move and people had to fight for that. For the people coming in after afterwards, I hope you got that memo. 👌🏻 it’s not about making things perfect. It’s about keeping the jobs and the ships going. 🤗 enjoy the roller coasters of fictional dramas no matter which one you see. 😜 as a US audience we sure have class. 🤣

Reloved — Strong Chemistry, Visible Growth, But a Love Story That Feels Too Easy

Going into Reloved, I was honestly excited because you can see how much Golf and Peter have grown since The Renovation in 2024. There is a confidence now, especially in how they hold emotional scenes, that wasn’t fully there before. They feel more comfortable on screen, more grounded, like they finally understand how to let moments breathe instead of rushing through them.

Peter Paratthakorn is, let’s be honest, insanely charming on screen. He’s cute, he has that very natural sensual presence, and physically he fits perfectly into the camera frame. But what really stood out to me is how natural he feels playing a gay character. It never feels like performance. It feels lived-in. Like he understands the emotional language of the character instinctively. And that creates this weird moment as a viewer where you stop thinking “he’s acting” and just accept him as the character.

If I compare him to Golf, Golf feels more like an actor building the character step by step, while Peter just exists in it. And that contrast actually makes their chemistry interesting, because it creates this balance between intensity and softness.

Now, where the drama loses me a bit is the relationship writing.

The love story itself feels… too smooth. Too easy. And when you’ve watched something like The Promise (2022), you know how powerful messy, complicated, slow emotional repair can be. Here, forgiveness comes fast. Reconnection happens fast. Emotional wounds close way too neatly. Real love, especially after separation and trauma, usually comes with hesitation, resentment, fear of being hurt again. And I wanted more of that.

The biggest missed opportunity for me is Donlaphat’s death.

That should have been the emotional core. The thing that shapes their choices, their guilt, their fears, their way of loving each other after loss. Instead, it feels like it’s treated like background lore instead of emotional fuel. And that made the story feel lighter than it should have been emotionally. Not bad, just… less impactful than it could have been.

And that’s the frustration with Reloved. Because it’s not badly made. The acting is solid. The chemistry is real. The production is clean. But the emotional writing sometimes plays too safe when it could have gone deeper and darker.

Final feeling

I liked it. I really did. But I kept thinking about what it could have been if it had allowed itself to hurt a little more. Because sometimes love stories become unforgettable when they stop trying to protect the audience and just show how messy love actually is.
