Wanted to love this one, but sadly it was just Okay for me.
Where do I begin? This drama had all the ingredients to be a 10/10 – a cool concept, interesting themes, and a nice cast. I was honestly really excited.
But… I just didn’t like it as much as I expected. I can’t even point to one specific thing that didn’t work – the first few episodes seemed really interesting, but I just couldn’t get into the story. I kept hoping it would grab me at some point, but I kept wavering between “this interests me” and “this is complete boredom.”
I don’t know.
I love ghost stories. I love crime stories. I love crime stories with ghosts… sighs I can’t win all the time.
Although I gave this series 6.5 stars, I would still recommend it because it had potential and an interesting enough plot. This is a story about Singha, a rational police inspector, and Thup, a painter endowed with extraordinary supernatural senses. As they investigate a series of murders tied to occult practices, they fall in love and kiss. They’re cute, and I wanted more of them together. The supporting characters primarily consist of members of the investigation team who assist Singha and Thup in unraveling the ritualistic murders and facing people, ghosts, demons, and killers. I actually enjoyed all the characters – they were flawed, they made mistakes, they doubted, and they fell in love. Yes – another half star.
Overall, I obviously did like it.
The music? I liked it. It was moving, chilling, tender, and I’ll give it another half star.
So… overall, it’s imperfect, but enjoyable if you’re in the mood for something with ghosts, criminal investigations, and romance.
