BL Twilight?? SIGN ME UP!!!
Is it a masterpiece? No. but if you’re into cliché vampire (mostly romance) plots and a fan of JossGawin you will enjoy it!!Things i liked:
The romance between Mark and Tong felt natural, chemistry between them was great! Their kisses and intimate scenes were realistic and never felt forced to me. The acting was solid across the board.
At first, i wasn’t sure how i felt about JossGawin together. I knew Gawin since (Not Me the series) But for Joss, i didn’t really know anything about him.. But after watching this, I’m very excited for their future series together!!
Visually Joss and Gawin are STUNNING together. They're so sweet and soft to watch. And seem very close and match eachother well. Their chemistry On and Off Screen is beautiful!! And I’m 100% invested in the JossGawin pairing🫂🫂 Very excited to see them in Only Friends season 2!!
THE OST IS BEAUTIFUL!! Closer, Ever After, and (Just You) are the top on my playlist rn✨✨
The filming locations i LOVEDD. The flower-shop had a great design...it was really beautiful!! All the houses and rooms were very well designed. The lighting and cinematography was great too!
As for the people complaining that joss was shirtless/half naked for TOO many episodes is WILD.
Idk why are y’all complaining that’s eye candy for me😌😌 Neo was NOT joking about Joss having the nicest body in GMMTV 5555
The side characters:
Out of everyone, i enjoyed Nakan the most. His story was interesting and wish we got more from his point of view…
Miss Thara killed her role in this series (Her stepping on Nakan was hawtt ME NEXT-) but her storyline was predictable…
TonKla was cute (love you Neo) but did him dirty ngl😭😭
SO the main problems for me was…
The CGI:
I understand that this is a low budget series and we can really feel it, it's really a shame (there was not even a workshop for it!!!!!) so due to that the editing is pretty bad.. In EP 12 the green screens were so badly edited in😭😭 It distracted me SO much and took me out of the wholesome moment that they were having. (HOWEVER, the upside down eiffel tower scene - inject it in my veins cuz I ATE THAT SHIT UP)
The audio:
The audio was- well, let’s just say (Crispy at times) During a very emotional scene, it felt like they were using one of those five dollar microphones that got dropped in the river ngl😭😭 It FR took me out of the moment. Also background music was not my favorite. (I’ve heard worse though)
The plot/Story: Not getting into to spoilers.
There was lots of plot holes and things that weren’t explained well. Or just didn’t make sense. I didn't like how they did the flashbacks to the past cause it was so random and messy. And tbh I just felt like they put so many moments just to get the ep runtime. It felt forced and unnecessary, mostly the college scenes. Wish they would have put more focus on the (vampire plot)
Ending thoughts:
10/10 potential, unfortunately didn’t quite deliver.
BUT Did i enjoy it- %100 YES😩😩
So go ahead and watch it. Give it a chance :)
