Underrated But Unforgettable
This might just be one of the best BL ghost series I’ve ever seen. I can’t believe I slept on this gem for so long, what was I doing? Lol.
He's Coming to Me may be a story about a ghost and a human, but it’s not scary at all. In fact, it leans more toward drama with a sprinkle of comedy, and the emotional depth? Chef’s kiss.
The story follows Mes, a ghost who’s been lingering in the living world for 20 years due to some unfinished business. He can’t reincarnate because he doesn’t even remember who he was when he was alive. Then there’s Thun—the little boy Mes used to see once a year during the Ching Ming Festival. Fast forward, Thun grows up, and he invites Mes to stay in his condo. From there, the real journey begins.
One of the things that hit me hard was how the show portrayed forgotten ghosts—loved ones who passed away but haven’t been visited or remembered for years. It’s heartbreaking and such a beautiful reminder to never forget those who’ve left us.
I genuinely feel for Mes. Not knowing who he was, stuck between worlds, and unable to move on—that alone already pulls you in. And then you have Thun, who’s been helping him piece together his past with zero expectations. Honestly, Thun is totally whipped for Mes, and it’s adorable.
The casting here is on point. The chemistry between the leads is just so good. Singto, in particular, has this natural chemistry with anyone he’s paired with, and this series is no exception. Also, props to the writers for making them law students for a change. Finally, something other than engineering we've seen hundred times in other BLs. 😂Thun’s friend group—Prince, Khiew, and Praifah brings extra charm to the series. I love their bond and how it adds warmth and fun to the story.
Acting-wise, both leads nailed it. Singto especially he can express so much just through his eyes. The story moves at a nice pace and flows naturally. Visually, it’s not super polished (it is from 2019), but the production quality still holds up.
And aside from the mystery of Mes' death, the show is also about self-discovery. Through Mes and Praifah, Thun slowly realizes his own feelings and that maybe, he’s not really into girls. That twist near the end? Totally unexpected. The storytelling here is just so good. Big kudos to the writer and director for keeping us hooked the whole time.
Honestly, He's Coming to Me is so underrated. Maybe it didn’t get much hype because fans were more into OhmNanon or KrisSingto pairings, but this one truly deserves more love.
Also, can we talk about how this series proves you don’t need tons of NC scenes to make a love story feel real? The connection between Thun and Mes is strong enough without it, you feel their love in every scene.
Sure, there’s a minor plot hole, but it didn’t take away from how much I enjoyed it. If you’re into ghost stories with mystery, emotional depth, and sweet romance, this one’s definitely worth watching.
