Promising Omegaverse, Questionable Hair Choices
Going into KNOT, I was curious to see how the series would handle the Omega verse concept. Fortunately, Episode 1 strikes a reasonable balance. It introduces the Alpha, Beta, and Omega dynamics without turning the episode into a lengthy exposition dump. Even viewers who aren't familiar with the Omega verse should be able to follow the basic premise.But the main lead (Phatsa - Oat) was himself not aware of this omega verse and nor is he aware of his secondary gender, I mean 'say what!'. But Phatsa is not your usual meek omega and Oat gives one of the stronger performances among the cast so far.
The introduction scenes of both the leads were fire. Nakhun - Boat is undoubtedly handsome and carries that aura of Alpha even though a expressionless face is yet to coverup for him. The second brother Nakhin - Theme looks like he just walked out a bad hair day vampire setup. The youngest brother Naphitch - Jame is just being typical trouble maker. The obvious tension in the family is reflected in one scene which was a subtle hint to action ahead. The shocker is biting your fated omega on first sight as it is something as natural as love at first sight.
The scent of pheromones like Midnight distillery (Whiskey), Fleur Nocturne (Isabey Paris), No.3 Quiet Heat, Bare petals (Victoria's Secret Bare) seems suiting the characters
The chemistry we saw in 'My Stubborn' is yet to surface. The flashback to the one-night-stand scene already has the kind of impact that will likely dominate fan edits and discussions online.
As a seasoned BL series watcher I could say it would be hasty to judge the entire series by just one episode. The 'ABO Desire' on omega verse Chinese BL even though lit had many plot holes. The concept is in detailed explained in 'Alpha Predator' (manhua) author Shui Qian Cheng.
For now, I'm cautiously optimistic. I'm hoping the storytelling grows stronger as the series settles into its world.

Maravilhoso início da série.
Desde a cenas de abertura até as cenas de crédito, tudo muito bem trabalhado. A música tema, a apresentação dos personagens, as explicações do universo Omega, carros, roupas, maquiagem os sets de filmagem...O cuidado de apresentar tudo impecavelmente prende a atenção e não se sente o episódio passar. A série prometeu e está entregando. Boat simplesmente impecável comanda a história com seu ar sedutor digno de um Alpha. Quero ver como vai se desenvolver os demais casais que aparecem nos créditos.Was this review helpful to you?
A good series that knows how to represent the omegaverse well.
When I heard they were going to make a series about such a little-known topic in the BL industry as the Omegaverse, I won't lie, I was apprehensive, but my goodness. I congratulate the director and everyone who is making this series a reality. I can see that they did a lot of research before filming, and they are all very well-informed. This series is everything I've ever wanted in an Omegaverse. It's definitely one of my favorite series this year. I also congratulate all the actors for their good performances; I have nothing to complain about so far.Was this review helpful to you?
KNOT első látásra!
Édesanya és én , már nagyon sok kérdést tettünk fel magunk közt a kezdésről. Izgatottan várjuk a következő részeket és amúgy már én eleve olvasgattam omega verzumos sztorikat és amikor kiderült, hogy Thaiföld csinál egy ilyen sorit nagyon megörültem. Először is, akit érdekel a sori és még nem hallott ilyenről annak ajánljuk, hogy olvasson az omega verzum után, hogy mit is takar.Xoxo, BRICHRIS!
