THE BEST OSTTTTT❤️❤️
I have to be honest. When The Last Twilight was first announced, I purposely didn’t watch it. That’s mainly because I’m not a fan of Jimmy. Bad Buddy left such a strong impression on me. He played the friend that i HATEDDD so well that I just couldn’t separate him from that role. It actually made it hard for me to see him in any other series or Jimmysea. His acting was that good 😭😂What finally pulled me in, though, was the OST. I’ve been listening to this ost on repeat! William’s voice is absolutely beautiful and emotional. I was completely obsessed. The song alone made me curious enough to give the show a chance. I’m glad I did, even though I have mixed feelings.
~REVIEW START HERE ~
This series isn’t your typical light, fluffy BL romance. It explores something much deeper. It’s about living with disability, and overcoming the inner battle after .. That alone makes it stand out from the usual tropes. I appreciated how it tried to be meaningful and thoughtful, especially in portraying blindness and how it affects not just the person, but also the people around them.
Despite its unique concept, the overall story didn’t quite hook me the way I hoped. I didn’t feel consistently drawn in, and some parts felt a bit slow or emotionally distant. However, there were two scenes that truly broke through and touched me deeply. Both involved the relationship between the main character(Sea) and his brother, (Mark)
Mark’s love for his brother was so raw and genuine. You could feel how much he cared, how protective he was, but also how much he struggled with his own feelings of being overlooked or forgotten within the family. The moment where they said, “Beef stew is your favorite” completely shattered me. It wasn’t a big, dramatic scene, but it was full of emotion and years of unspoken love. I was literally sobbing. That scene, and others like it, made the family aspect of the story feel very real and powerful. In fact, I think the development of the family relationships was one of the strongest parts of the series.
Now, about the ending. I usually love a happy ending. But I had mixed feelings about the main character getting a donor and regaining his sight. While I understand why some people might find that uplifting or satisfying, I personally felt it undercut the core message of the series. Throughout the story, there’s a strong emphasis on the idea that being blind doesn’t make someone any less worthy or capable. That they can still live a full, meaningful, independent life without needing to be “fixed.”
So when the ending gave him his sight back, it felt like the show was saying, “Actually, he did need to be fixed after all.” That didn’t sit right with me. I think the story would have been more impactful if it ended with him continuing to live as he was. Of course, that’s just my personal perspective.
In the end, The Last Twilight had its flaws, but it also offered moments of quiet beauty and emotional truth, especially in how it portrayed family, care, and personal growth. I’m honestly glad I gave it a chance. And I’ll admit… Jimmy may have slowly started to win me over

⭐️ The OST brought me here and I HAVE NO REGRET !! BEST SERIES I've watch in awhile
I’ve been watching BL dramas for over 5–6 years now — Thai, Korean, Chinese, Taiwanese, Japanese, etc. I’ve seen most of what’s out there, and honestly, Khemjira really stands out as one of my absolute favorites. It’s rare for a series to pull me in so completely, but this one completely did. It was so good that I even rewatched the entire thing just a week after finishing it. I also rarely make a review but this series is too GOODDD to not share my thought so other can experience what i felt watching it .⸻
🌀 Story & Plot
What truly impressed me was the storytelling. For once, I watched an entire series without skipping scenes or speeding things up , that almost never happens for me. These days there are too many BL coming out without actual plot or plot that are too cliche. But as for Khemjira, the plot was engaging from the very first episode, fast-paced yet emotionally rich. There were no unnecessary side stories or filler moments; everything served a purpose. The story telling was beautifully done.
ANDD that plot twist, the revelation that the monk was actually the son of the Ramphueng — was done so well! I especially loved how they developed her character; I went from seeing her as a villain to genuinely sympathizing with her. It’s rare for a BL drama to balance supernatural elements, emotional depth, and moral complexity this effectively. The way they showcase each person story without over shadowing the main lead and main plot was amazing. The writer / directors all did very well.

🎭 Acting & Characters
THISSS!!!!!! The cast did an incredible job bringing the story to life. Keng is effortlessly charismatic and, let’s be honest, absolutely stunning on screen. But what really surprised me was Namping’s performance, his acting was phenomenal. His emotional scenes, especially when he cried, felt so natural and heartfelt. It’s not common in Thai BLs to see such strong emotional delivery, but he nailed it. Every tear felt real, and it made the story hit even harder. Not just the main lead but all the side characters play their role so well.
I also want to praise the actress that played Ramphueng, because she was a vital part of the series and she did amazing. She got me sobbing with her EP 12. I absolutely despise her but completely sympathize with her. I just wanted to give her a big hug.

🤝 Friendship
One of my favorite things about Thai BLs is how they portray friendship, and Khemjira captures that beautifully. The bond between the main lead and Jet was one of the highlights of the series for me. Jet’s loyalty, love, and quiet support were heartwarming, and his relationship with Cham was just adorable. Their friendship added so much emotional warmth and balance to the overall story. The way not only Jet but his sister Jane was willing to put their life in danger in order to save Khem was so beautiful.

🎵 OST & Atmosphere
BEST OST!!!!!!
The OST deserves special praise. The main song, “Mantra” by Keng, is what initially made me curious about the series . I was showering when i first heard the song. I thought it was JEFF but when i realized it was Keng and a ost from this series . I immediately start series. I’m so glad it did. It’s hauntingly beautiful and perfectly fits the tone of the story. Every track was used thoughtfully to enhance the emotional beats and atmosphere. The soundtrack truly elevated the entire viewing experience.
⸻
💫 Final Thoughts
Khemjira is one of those rare BL dramas that checks every box — strong plot, great pacing, emotional depth, talented actors, meaningful friendships, and a stunning soundtrack. It’s a refreshing reminder that BLs can be both entertaining and deeply moving.
As someone who has been watching BLs for years across different countries, I can confidently say that Khemjira deserves way more recognition. It’s not just a good BL . it’s an excellent series in its own right.
Rating: 10/10 (or honestly, 10,000/10 if I could!)
