A truly life changing BL.
No spoilers here! Feel free to safely read this review.
When I originally saw the trailer for this show, the first thing that stuck out to me (someone who hates horror) is that I still found myself drawn to facing my crybaby scaredy cat personality to watch this BL.
For a "horror" show, objectively it's not scary! There are a few jumpscares, but most (if not all) are really predictable and can be quickly avoided! If you are a scaredy cat like me, don't worry! I think you'll be okay.
As for the show itself, the storyline is INCREDIBLE. Loss, Yearning, Passion, Strength, Charisma, Fear, Suspense, Angst, everything you could want in a show (except it being fluffy and upbeat, though our side couple helps there) is here.
Our main couple (Kengnamping) goes through so much individually and as a duo. Their story has so many twists, turns, and things trying to keep them apart. But having their own battles to face and choosing to fight hand and hand against them, even if it's not a shared problem? Yeah, I'm weak in the knees over them.
And our side couple (Tlefirstone) Oh my gosh LOL, they're incredible! I was unfamiliar with the actors prior to Khemjira but their chemistry is off the charts! I found myself smiling over them since the first episode. Their energy and relationship is so endearing. It's everything to me! They feel like a breath of fresh air with everything the main couple has to go through.
There are endless words I could say to express my love for this show so far, but all I ask of you is to give it a fair shot. Even with each episode being over an hour somehow I felt like each was just 15 minutes.
The music, acting, chemistry, storyline, and world building of this show is unlike any other show I've ever seen. The level of detail and cultural significance in Khemjira is also everything to me. A true 10/10 recommendation from me (which is few and in between when it comes to BLs for me.)
