I had a great time watching Khom Khlang. Did I refer to it as "lesbian Khemjira" for a lot of the time? Yes. But considering it's filmed in the same house with a similar enough starting plot...I think it makes sense. I really enjoyed the supernatural aspects of the show, but it felt like the threat of a human trafficking gang that can't be killed due to black magic, and your mom not approving of your partner were treated as equal obstacles in this show. I thought it felt a little off balance in that sense, but overall it was still a very fun watch!

Peem (Puinoon) is a police officer tracking down a gang involved in human trafficking, with personal reasons to have a vendetta against them. When she finally catches one of them, she shoots him - only for the bullet to crumble. Convinced the gang has used black magic, Peem seeks the help of a powerful shaman named Bulan (Bint). Bulan is hesitant to help Peem with her murderous mission, but the ties between them seem to run deeper than this single encounter.

I really enjoyed the tone of most of this show, and thought that the actors did a great job portraying these characters. The romance felt much faster than I expected in a show like this, and while I LOVE seeing two women on my screen, I did find myself wishing we got a bit more of a slow burn. If there's one thing I love more than lesbians, it's lesbian yearning. Still, the romance and supernatural elements of the show worked really well together, and it's a super entertaining watch. I did feel like towards the end, the conflict started to feel less important, but overall I still very much enjoyed the show!
