NLE Adding Net to episode 11 was a brilliant choice, his humour felt like a fragile light in the storm. After ten episodes of intensity and pain, we needed his warmth to breathe again, even just for a moment.But my heart shattered during the water scene, the kiss between Charn and Jet, the echoes of their past lives as Jin and Da. The flashback was hauntingly beautiful, like a memory that refused to die. I’m not usually drawn to GL stories, but their love transcended form, name, and time itself. In their past life, they loved deeply but were never allowed to be together. In this one, fate gave them a second chance, not for love, but for sacrifice. All they wished for was to save Khem. If that isn’t the purest form of friendship and love intertwined, I don’t know what is.They did nothing wrong. They loved, they tried, they gave. Yet the world punished them anyway. Watching them suffer felt unbearable, I cried not just for what they lost, but for the cruel tenderness of destiny itself.And now, with only one episode left, my heart aches knowing it’s all coming to an end. Rarely does a series capture me so completely, episode after episode, from the first to the last. This one did, flawlessly. It’s a masterpiece, and it deserves every bit of its 8.7 rating. Next week, when the final curtain falls, it will feel like saying goodbye to something irreplaceable.

Punn’s life is stitched with sorrow. His parents were taken from him, his brother torn away, and an orphanage became the only place he could call home. Yet even that fragile thread of life was shattered on one merciless night. Before his eyes, people he knew fell, their bodies broken, the earth soaked in blood spilled by vampires. It was a night carved deep into his soul, a night that turned an innocent boy into a man bound to revenge, his heart consumed by grief and vengeance.Through the years of carrying this weight, Punn set his sights on Ramil, the head of the vampires, believing that only Ramil’s death could quench the fire inside him. Yet love writes its own destiny in places where hatred dwells. Ramil, gifted with the power to read minds, always knew what Punn was. He knew he was a hunter, he knew the knife in his heart was sharpened by grief. And still, he did not hate him. He saw the boy inside the man, the pain that shaped him, and instead of cruelty, he chose understanding.When the moment came, Punn stood with a blade trembling in his hand, the perfect chance to strike. Ramil did not resist. He opened his heart, willing to die in the arms of the one he loved. But as steel hovered close to flesh, it was not hatred that ruled. It was love. A love so raw it shattered vengeance itself.The knife fell away, their lips found each other, and “I love you” carried more weight than any revenge could. In that fragile moment, their bodies pressed together, sorrow was eased by tenderness, and two broken souls became whole.If this is not love, then what could it possibly be?

The first two episodes completely blew me away! Mandee Work has done it again, giving us another beautifully produced BL series. I already loved Big and Park in Monster Next Door, but they’re even more captivating here. The story takes a refreshing turn from the usual university setting, and Park’s black hair gives him a more mature and natural charm compared to his blonde look in his last role.From the very start, the show feels vibrant, heartfelt, and engaging. Phopthorn, a struggling convenience store worker, suddenly finds his soul inside the body of Apo, a billionaire with a handsome and mysterious fiancé, Suriya (Big), who can read minds. Imagine living your whole life poor, then waking up rich with a tall, hot, and charming fiancé, it’s literally every fantasy brought to life. Their dynamic is electric, full of tension, humor, and sweet chaos that keeps you glued to the screen.Every detail is beautifully crafted — from the elegant costumes and stunning mansion to the music and smooth cinematography. Big and Park’s chemistry is undeniable once again, and the balance of romance, comedy, and drama is spot on. “Me and Who” is easily shaping up to be one of the best new BLs of the year. My Fridays just got a lot brighter.

I really liked episode five. It felt like a big improvement from episode four, but there’s still so much sadness between the characters. Ice clearly has feelings for Saint, and Saint feels the same for Ice. When Ice was at his lowest point, Warm was the one who stayed by his side, and that’s why they became boyfriends, but it’s clear Ice doesn’t truly love him. His heart is still with Saint.It’s so ironic that the parents are forcing Saint and Lanee to get married. Saint is bi/gay, Lanee is lesbian, and yet they’re being pushed into something that makes no sense. If this were the 1960s, I could understand it, but this story takes place in 2025, when same-sex marriage is already legal in Thailand. It’s hard to believe their parents still have that much control. They’re both adults, so why are they letting others decide their lives? If money is the reason, I’d rather see them work part-time and build their own freedom than live in a marriage without love.Then there’s Ice messaging Professor Mint, agreeing to meet him at the hotel. I can’t shake the feeling that it’s a setup, maybe Ice plans to record everything and expose him later. But Saint is worried, and if he goes to the hotel, he might ruin everything.Episode five left me feeling heartbroken and tense. Everyone’s trying to do what’s right, but in the end, no one seems truly happy.

Just finished episode 11, and my heart feels shattered.Two scenes tore me apart.The first was after the car accident. Prince Saenkaew’s father raised his gun at Sasin, and in that moment, Prince Saenkaew pressed a knife to his own throat — trembling, but resolute, saying that if Sasin died, he would too. It was love at its most desperate and doomed. He had no choice but to obey his father’s command and return home, leaving Sasin bleeding and broken behind him. Sasin’s wounds were not only from the crash but from watching the man he loved disappear before his eyes, powerless to stop him.Then there was Pin and her fragile dream, living in a fantasy built on denial. As a gay man, I know we do not choose this; we are born this way. Love cannot be forced, and desire cannot be bent into shape. Pin knew Prince Saenkaew’s heart would never belong to her, yet she clung to him and his crown like it could fill her emptiness. She cried, and though her pain was real, I could not pity her.And then came the gate scene, the one that left me hollow.Sasin travelled all the way from Bangkok to Chiang Mai just to see his prince once more.Prince Saenkaew: “Why did you come?”Sasin: “I came to get you. Come with me. Let’s run away together. Rachawadee will help us escape to Hua Hin. We can live on that island, you’ll fish, and I’ll play music for you. Do you remember?”Prince Saenkaew: “It’s too late. Everything has changed.”Sasin: “Nothing has changed. I still love you, and I know you still love me.”Prince Saenkaew: “What’s the use? Our love has no place in this world. It will only destroy you. We’ve lost. Go back.”Sasin: “No, we haven’t lost. Don’t give up yet.”Prince Saenkaew: “I already have. I’m begging you, don’t come back here again.”When Prince Saenkaew turned away, tears streaming down his face, it felt like the world stopped breathing. Sasin stood there, broken at the gate, his hope slipping through his fingers like sand.I can’t stop thinking about it. Only a few more hours until the finale is released with English subtitles, I’m waiting, heart in hand, fingers crossed for a happy ending.

Rarely do I come across a BL this extraordinary. Every episode feels like a masterpiece, rich in emotion, layered with meaning, and performed with breathtaking depth. The acting captures every fragile heartbeat, the flashbacks flow like memories etched in time, and the plot unfolds with poetic precision.Some episodes stretched close to two hours, yet not once did I feel weary, only captivated.Khemjira now stands at 8.8, the highest-rated BL of the year, and it truly earns that crown. I would return to this masterpiece in a heartbeat.

Apart from the childhood incident, Pheem actually met Jason before he ever met Than. Right now, Pheem and Than aren’t officially together, their feelings are still slowly finding their way toward each other. Meanwhile, Pheem met Jason in Singapore, and he’s simply following the path that fate has placed before him.We need to remember that Pheem’s main goal is revenge. His stepmother murdered his own mother right before his eyes, and his half-brother tried to kill him. Those horrors turned an innocent boy into someone consumed by vengeance. His heart, once full of warmth, now beats for retribution.Even if he has to flirt with Jason to accomplish his mission, he will do it, because revenge is all that fills his mind right now. If Pheem and Than were already a couple, then it would be wrong for him to flirt with Jason. But since they’re not, I don’t see anything wrong with it. You can see how Pheem tries to hold himself back from kissing Jason, how his thoughts quietly drift back to Than, the one person who still stirs something real inside him. Even in moments of temptation, his heart betrays his mission, reminding him that beneath all the anger and pain, he is still capable of love.And Than, even from afar, can’t help but feel that ache of jealousy, that longing for Pheem. They both care so deeply, yet neither knows how to take that final step. All they need is time to open their hearts and let their love finally be understood.

For those who may not know, the iQIYI app works just like Netflix, letting you download and watch offline. I knew episode eight would run for two hours, so I downloaded it beforehand. What a journey it was. One of the longest BL episodes I have ever watched, yet it held me so completely that my two-hour flight felt like a fleeting moment. For the first time in my life, flying was not a bore but a joy, because of this masterpiece of an episode.Some may say it was too long, but it is never about the length. It is about the chemistry, the cinematography, the plot that carries you away. And episode eight delivered all of this with perfection.I believe it was Grandma Si who first opened Peem’s heart. With simple words, “if you have a lover, and if you lose him, you will regret it,” she unlocked something within him, giving him the courage to reveal his true feelings to Khem.From there, communication became their bridge. Khem told Pong with honesty that he felt nothing more than brotherhood. Peem told Prim that his heart already belonged to someone else. Once the air was clear, the two met in the quiet of night. Their confessions came softly, their silences carrying as much weight as their words. It was slow, but it was necessary.We waited eight episodes, and the first kiss was worth every second. A kiss centuries in the making, carrying the echoes of past lives into this one. The music, the lingering glances, the gentle press of lips, it was tender, it was sweet, it was romantic in every sense.Later that night, they rode together on a single bike. Under the stars, Peem worried for his grandmother, and Khem’s embrace told him without words: I am here, I will always be here. And then Peem, in his vulnerability, asked Khem not to call him Master anymore, at least when they were alone. “Call me by my name, Peem,” he said. The joy in Khem’s smile showed another thread binding them closer together.And then came the scene we all had been waiting for. Khem whispered, “I don’t have much time left, but I want to follow my heart so I will not regret it.” Thunder roared, rain poured, but nothing could stop these two lovers.“You mean so much to me, Khem,” Peem confessed, before they kissed again, their hands trembling with longing as raindrops ran down their skin. What followed was not rushed, not forced. Peem understood Khem was not ready to give everything, and so he did not push. Instead, they shared what they could, pleasuring each other with tenderness and respect. This is love in its truest form, communication, care, the willingness to wait. Not everything must be about sex, nor should every first time be defined by it. The intimacy they shared was more than enough, because it was theirs.The scene was breathtakingly beautiful. Their love felt unhurried and real, overflowing with affection. As they ended with a gentle kiss, Peem’s love and respect for Khem shone through brighter than ever.When morning came, Khem woke to find Peem still beside him. The smile on his face was pure joy. He touched him gently, rubbed his nose against his beloved, and the sweetness of that moment lingered.And let us not forget our second couple. Jet and Chan lying in bed simple act of holding hands all night, it melted my heart. I was glad, too, that they were not given another NC scene. Love does not always need to rush into physical passion. Sometimes, the beauty lies in patience, in allowing time to deepen the bond, especially when moving from friends to lovers.This series is nothing short of a masterpiece. It gives us everything, romance, tenderness, longing, respect. I cannot wait to see how the remaining episodes unfold.

All ShuHe and Duan ZiAng ever dreamed of was a quiet life in the woods, a small wedding beneath the trees, a love free of crowns and wars. Yet their fragile dream was shattered by the Crown Prince, who, though destined to be king, could not wait for fate. His greed devoured him, and in his hunger for power, he killed his own father to seize the throne.At the bridge, ShuHe cried out in desperation, begging his brother to let them go. All they wanted was peace, a home in the forest, mornings of laughter, nights of warmth. But the Crown Prince could not let go of ambition. He raised his blade first, and in that moment sealed his own tragic fate.Years passed. Five long years of silence, of longing, of wounds that festered. Each day they thought of one another, each night they carried their grief. And when they finally met again, tears fell, apologies poured forth, and the weight of unspoken words was lifted at last. Forgiveness was given, love reclaimed. They held hands and promised to walk together until the very end.No longer emperors, no longer rulers, just two men, back where it began, in the 6th Prince’s residence. No guards, no servants, no kingdoms between them. Only their love. As they leaned closer, foreheads touching, lips meeting with trembling sweetness, it was love in its purest form. If this is not love, then nothing is.And then, their wedding. The first same-sex marriage of an ancient time, sealed by legend. A blood-stained dagger cut their hair, binding their souls beyond death, into the next life and all that followed. Together, they poured three cups of wedding wine.The first cup, to heaven and earth. Duan ZiAng smiled, whispering, “My heaven and earth have always been you.”The second cup, to their nation.The third, to themselves, to finally becoming husband and husband.They kissed, tender and eternal, as ShuHe’s voice trembled, “Life and death are a cycle ruled by fate. Duan ZiAng, I love you.”Their final embrace was both love and farewell. Two souls holding on for the last time, as if clinging could keep the world from breaking. And as their story closed, one prayer lingered in the wind:If there is another life beyond this one, let us not be princes or heirs. Let us be two ordinary men in a quiet forest, with no crowns, no wars, no witnesses. Let our mornings be filled only with love, our days with peace, our nights with laughter.Until then, even in death, my heart belongs to you.This story has ended, leaving my heart in ruins. Never have I cried so much, never has a love so tragic felt so eternal. This first ancient BL has carved its mark deeply into me. A masterpiece of love and loss, forever unforgettable. 10/10

A big round of applause for the emperor’s courage, daring to hold the hand of his beloved as they walked through the Lantern Festival night market, a love so radiant even the shadows of history could not dim it. His devotion to ShuHe was boundless, he was ready to abandon the throne, to forsake the years of struggle and sacrifice, all for the sake of love.Yet those fleeting moments of tenderness gave way to betrayal and lies. What the emperor could not see was that ShuHe’s heart and mind were never fully aligned. In his heart, he still carried love for Duan ZiAng, but in his mind, he clung to the dream of restoring his fallen kingdom. And while he reached for both, time betrayed Duan ZiAng. Poison was already coursing through his body, a silent thief stealing away his days.Now only one episode remains, one last night before this masterpiece reaches its end. It feels as though I only just stepped into their world, yet the kingdom I entered in episode one is already crumbling before my eyes. Their love cannot be extinguished like this, yet love has become entangled with hatred, with lies, with betrayal.Duan ZiAng, your strength was never your throne but the depth of your heart, willing to give up everything for ShuHe. ShuHe, your love was torn between loyalty to a fallen kingdom and the man who was ready to die for you. I do not want to say goodbye, but the story has already written its final chapter. If only love were enough to rewrite destiny. If only one more night together could last forever. My heart shatters for you both, for a love too great and too fragile to survive the cruelty of fate 💔

Yet another great episode! The flashback to the 1940s was beautifully executed and really stood out to me. The attention to detail was incredible, from the old TV and heritage house to the vintage cars, clothing styles, and even the haircuts, everything felt authentic and immersive. You can tell the production team put a lot of effort and research into capturing the atmosphere of that era, which made the scenes even more powerful and memorable. What impressed me even more is that the episode was over an hour long, yet I never once felt bored as the pacing, acting, and storytelling kept me engaged the entire time. It’s rare to see this level of care in a BL and that’s what makes this series shine. For me, this is one of the best Thai BLs of the year and I’m genuinely excited to see where the story goes next. I already can’t wait for the next episode!

They said the last few episodes had too much comedy.But tonight… comedy is gone.Episode 23 is sorrow in its purest form. 💔Yue Yue drifted from Wu Suo Wei,to Wang Zhen Long,to Chi Cheng,changing lovers like changing clothes,always chasing the richer man.And when Wu Suo Wei finally rose from poverty,she dared to return.When he refused her,she turned to his mother.If this is not the definition of a gold digger,what is?But Wu Suo Wei…My heart aches for him.Born poor,counting every cent,saving every coin.Yet for Chi Cheng,he sold everything,even his home,losing 2 million yuan,just to save him.Back on the streets,he worked from dawn to night,moulding sugar figurines,hands raw and aching.He knelt before Wang Zhen Long,pride shattered,for the man he loves.And still, Wang Shuo came back to mock him.Yet he stood tall.He kept going.If this is not love,then love does not exist.Even Chi Cheng’s rich parents stayed silent.Was it because their son loves a man?Would they rather leave their fortune to a grandsonthan save their own child?But there was one bright light,Dr. Jiang Xiao Shuai,offering help without hesitation.A friend like that is rare.And then…the jail scene.Two men, tears falling like rain.Wu Suo Wei’s voice steady,his love unshaken.Chi Cheng saying, “I hate you,”when what he meant was,I hate that you gave up everything for me.I hate that you sold your family for my freedom.Chi Cheng, crying quietly over a simple meal in prison,is an image I’ll never forget.Tomorrow, it all ends.One last episode.One final goodbye."I don’t need luxury, I just need you."If this is not love,tell me, what is? 💔

Episode 3 is so good and genuinely funny. It runs for 80 minutes, almost like a double episode, but it goes by so quickly. I love it so much. You can clearly see they are falling for each other hard, and it is going to be explosive once they finally open up.

I wrote a poem for episode 4, hope you guys like itYou saved me twice.And I saved you twice.We should be even, right?Then why is it that no matter where I go,it is always you that stays in my mind.Xia Liu Yi got everything he once fought for.Revenge tasted exactly how he imagined it would.Cold. Sharp. Empty.He became the boss.He stood at the top.Yet the nights refused to let him rest.Sleep never came easily,not until he stepped into that familiar house again.He ChuSan’s house.His room.The moment he entered,the silence wrapped around him like something gentle, something known.Every corner whispered memories.Every breath felt like home.It was there,on that quiet bed filled with the warmth he never admitted he missed,that Xia Liu Yi finally closed his eyesand slept without fear.Days passed without seeing each other.But missing someone does not need words.Just one moment was enough.On a crowded bus,between strangers and passing streets,their eyes met.Only for a second.No smiles.No gestures.But in that fleeting glance,they understood everything.You are safe.You are here.I am still yours.Graduation day arrived like a dream.He ChuSan stood among the best,years of effort shining quietly behind his calm expression.His father was there, proud and present,watching the son who had made it to the top,who was about to leave for a future far away,across the ocean, into a new world.Everyone important was there.And yet,his eyes searched for only one person.Time passed.The ceremony went on.Applause filled the air.But his heart waited.And then,just when it almost hurt too much to hope,Xia Liu Yi appeared.No grand entrance.No words to explain the distance between them.Just him,standing there,holding a single bouquet of flowers.Simple.Quiet.But to He ChuSan,it was enough to make everything bloom again.Because it was never about the flowers.It was about who brought them.In that moment,crowds disappeared,time softened,and all the distance between them quietly dissolved.Some loves do not arrive loudly.They return slowly,step by step,heartbeat by heartbeat,until one day you realizethey never truly left.And maybe they were never meant to be even.Because some connections are not about balance.They are about belonging.
