Enjoyable to watch, unfortunately you have to "guess" the gaps in the plot of the last episodes
watched on GagaOOLala.
The last 2 episodes were chaotic. I missed the explanation of why and what they did for the whole year after the breakup? Why was You Xi in the desert? Lots of gaps and a disjointed plot. I had to guess a lot. The last episode was a summary of experiences and memories to condense the grand finale into just 5 minutes. The plot was good, good chemistry, but the ending was poorly written.
Am I the only one who feels like the author ran out of ideas and wanted to end it in a hurry?
Otherwise, I liked this series, it's just a shame that it ended chaotically and with unanswered questions, even with a happy ending.

I loved the novel, the film adaptation did not disappoint
A lot has been said in previous reviews, I'll just add: It's one of the few series that you can watch over and over again and still have fun. A light, non-toxic romantic story of two different personalities from different families. Advice for those who have finished reading: In combination with reading the novel (contains NSFW) and special episodes, you will always have a smile on your face and tears of emotion in your eyes. I recommend fans of the second couple to read the novel: "Even Better - Jamie and Mars"Was this review helpful to you?

The series went in a different direction than the original novel.
I watched GagaOOLala.I forgive the filmmakers for the opening episodes. They were very toxic and the main characters were “red flags” in themselves. James plays Jimmy so well that most viewers started to “hate” him. Kad’s Toh was so naive, innocent, blinded that you wanted to shake him and scream at him!
The last episodes were a big disappointment for me. They edited the original novel and did more harm than good. They put Toh and Freeze together. They both came out of that relationship as the two biggest idiots. Toh and Jimmy? Just whining, crying, drowning in alcohol, no proper communication, which led to more misunderstandings. Teek and Fah were good only as an addition to NC for the audience’s pleasure, their interference annoyed me. Happy ending thanks to matchmakers? All forgiven, jump into sex? What the hell is that!
I recommend reading the original novel, where Toh has wised up and matured. Where Jimmy will suffer, he will get a chance to change and win back his love without intimacy and kisses. If they had ended the series like this, the ratings would definitely have been higher

The series title is misleading
Overall, a nice story about amnesia, loyal love, being chased by a crazy fan, a secret that should be forgotten. Thanks to the Thai production, there are bold scenes of NC for a Korean film. The actors are very handsome, they had amazing chemistry with each other. The series is mainly focused on the feelings between the partners. Apart from a few unforgivable mistakes in the script (the killer can send threatening letters and make phone calls from prison), I liked the series.Was this review helpful to you?
