Deserve better
When you read the synopsis and watch the pilot, the story seems promising and you're full of hope for its development. Unfortunately, the execution leaves much to be desired. It's unfortunate, because there's real potential, but the writers seem to have lost their way, which has also led to a loss of audience.I find the original series, featuring two friends who can communicate by dream, to be quite unique. However, this idea has not been fully exploited, which sometimes makes it feel a little lost.
I've noticed that some Internet users find the acting unsatisfactory, but personally, I have no problem with their performance. I really enjoyed the chemistry between Fay and May, and their interactions with their groups of friends.
The conclusion could have been better, but I'm happy.

Wow
I don't understand why so few people are talking about this series, because it was really interesting and entertaining. The horror and thriller elements were very well done, and I was pleasantly surprised. The actors' performances were good. I really recommend this series; even if the BL aspect isn't as pronounced as in others, it's still there. I'm really looking forward to Be on Cloud's new project.Was this review helpful to you?
A Real Pain to Watch
Watching this series was honestly such a pain for me, I’m sorry to say. At first, the “enemies to lovers” aspect was quite nice, but after that… oh my God. He’s one of the worst characters I’ve ever seen in a BL. Honestly, I couldn’t even finish the series because he annoyed me so much. And knowing he ends up with Mark makes me feel sick.Also, I really didn’t appreciate the sexual assault scene. That completely ruined it for me and made me even more uncomfortable with the story.
That being said, I really enjoyed the acting and the characters of Mark and Nuea. But the rest was just really hard to watch. I feel bad that this series managed to make me so angry. Mark, in particular, is just so unbearable.
I don’t recommend it.

A Classic Story with a Fresh Twist
If you’re already a big fan of series and telenovelas, the plot might feel predictable — a bit of “been there, done that.” The difference here is that the story features two male leads, which adds slightly different dynamics, even if it doesn’t completely reinvent the genre.I especially enjoyed the cinematography, which brought a refreshing visual style to the drama. Thada and Armin were adorable and touching characters, and the actors portrayed them with great authenticity — though, for me, Thada still comes across as a bit of a stalker and somewhat creepy.
The villains were wonderfully infuriating — the kind you love to hate and enjoy seeing cause trouble throughout the series.
Overall, it’s an entertaining drama that I truly enjoyed, and I hope to see more shows like this in the future.
Highly recommended!

I really enjoyed watching this series, mostly because of Kim Su Hyeon's anger, which I found entertaining, I'm not going to lie to you. The plot has a lot of gaps and leaves a lot of questions unanswered, but they did the best they could with the resources they had. BL dramas really need to avoid time jumps, we've had enough of them.Was this review helpful to you?
???
I'm really puzzled by the reviews of this series, because my experience was completely different. The script made me want to pull my hair out, and the characters were simply unbearable. What's more, communication between them was almost non-existent, even though they are young adults. The only bright spot in the series is really the characters of Syn and Nuer, but that's not enough to carry the whole thing. The premise of the series was promising, but the execution is disappointing. I sincerely hope that “Next Prince” will not be in the same vein, I still have hope.Was this review helpful to you?
A missed
Honestly, it's well-acted, the plot is simple, and the chemistry between Thame and Po is definitely there. They're cute together.However, the show didn’t really manage to develop the themes it wanted to explore. Everything felt a bit superficial to me in the way those topics were approached.
I also found Est's acting a bit stiff — I hope he’ll feel more comfortable in future roles.
As for GMMTV, they didn’t even try to hide the fact that the show was also a way to promote the boy group — and I actually liked that. I love that they didn’t go for the whole “ship the members together” marketing strategy. That never ends well, so honestly, smart move.
