Not really that good, people
Don't kill me, but I'm not on board the whole 'Khemjira best BL of the year'. Yes, the story and the production quality are amazing. But apart from Firstone and all of the extra's, the acting was just so-so. Chemistry of the mc was spotty at best. Keng is clearly a passionate kisser, bit Namping hardly matched that passion.
Keng and NP are both acting as introverted characters. That means they need to master the art of micro expressions and voice tone. They do not. Their acting has too little range to keep being interesting.
Firstone as Jett was the only one with emotional range.
There were some parts really too long and boring, while others could have used more depth. Some episodes were thrilling and riveting. Some of them were not. Some plotlines fell flat, like the 'girlfriend from the past' Prim.
I really liked the show, but it's not one of the best BL's of the year. It just above average and that's mostly due to story and originality.
Lastly, an honorable mention for the amazing extra characters. The theatrical performance scene in the field was beautiful and the hordes of ghosts were truly frightening at times.
