Yep.

You are not wrong.
But, their personalities are 'totally different'. Atleast, in the novel.
(They might've changed some for the drama. His conversation with the Literature Professor is important from the novel point of view.)

Like... when we read the novel, we don't even understand that they are the same and it never felt like the same person to me.
Nakhun is even unable to make decisions as he is confused whether people like the 'new Klao' or the 'old Klao' was the one they originally liked.
Same with Pun/Kaew. The Kaew in the past is not a bit like the Pun in the future.

Honestly, if they go according to the novel, the only comedic bits will be from Chuay and Nakhun.
Figuring out what happened to the real Klao is the most important part, and the real Klao did not have the same personality as Nakhun, and a rather tragic story. [It's hinted when Nakhun woke up. And plenty of it in the trailer.]
Same with Jom and Kaew.

I had watched some similar stuff/read similar books before. (The Ghost Next Door by RL Stine gave very, very similar vibes with this.) There are a few dramas, too, with the same undertones.

I had my eyes on it, but began Khemjira due to time constraints. Maybe I'll after that. Thanks. :)

The drama wasn't bad; but, scriptwise, it's barely passable. Multiple interesting directions and it went nowhere.
Cutie Pie didn't have to establish a relationship from scratch for the Main leads. This one had to do it, and failed spectacularly, unless the viewer knows that they are paired by the company or has seen their works.

Ramil and Paytai simply walking out of the palace seems illogical. His father was potrayed as a monster who controlled everyone and everything, then the writer decided to forget about it to wrap up their plot.

They didn't have many scenes and it was being hammered down that Paytai would suffer if Ramil stepped out of line; yet it all got thrown out of the window in EP13 -- unless Paytai fell blindly in love with Ramil sometime offscreen to assume that he would be able to stand upto his father.
Granted, it was the impetus for Ramil, but its poorly done.
Honestly, every supporting characters' arcs were disappointing. Even the villains.

Your very welcome. Thanks for reading! :D
Honestly, everything is perfect except for the abysmal script.

I don't know when they conceived the idea for Magic Lover (if it was before or after the release of Your Sky, which propelled the leads to limelight), but dealing with three stories together is risky if - 1) The writer doesn't know how to do it.
2) the director doesn't know how to play it out to the audience.
And Jimmy's character (as well as the other guides) seems to have been cursed to become an animal after failing his mission, so it can be either a story solely for entertainment value or has the potential to get a bit angsty.
But, they didn't hype it up and it doesn't seem as flamboyant as TNP, so there might be a teensy bit of hope.

Thanks! :D

The way Rachata kept threatening and throwing his weight around Paytai and Ramil made it seem like Paytai was in some sort of contract with the family as a 'companion'.
Seeing him leave just like that... I don't know. Seems off or we are still unclear about how exactly the companion thing works.

I wrote this while I still had a semblance of hope. Unfortunately, I revamped the whole thing after the recent episode.
But, thanks for reading! 😁

My biggest question. The entire scene seems to negate a lot of things for those two characters.

I think it has to do with the fact that Jay took him/asked him to come for the protest.
Now, news that a foreign prince took part in the protest would spread and if anyone gets blamed for bringing him, it will be Jay.
Considering that the issue is serious for the ruling family, and he basically brought in an important person from another place (one who was invited by them), and I guess it can lead to tensions between the two countries.

Iida-san connected the dots through that photo. Domoto-san still hadn't had any circumstance where she had to directly deal with him except for the case with the schoolgirl.
I think the killer doesn't know what she is upto either. But, she was very, very close to the truth by the end of the drama. It left me wanting more.

I think he wanted to gather more evidence than just a photo. But, that man already knew where Iida-san rested, which unfortunately led to his demise.

Interesting... I assumed that he had taken a job at the station after being alerted about the investigation as he fled the last crime scene in a haste.
I don't think he planned to murder anyone; he just wanted to know how much they knew.
He was pretty shaken when Iida-san caught on him really quick, considering how careful he had been in not leaving traces. Iida would've escaped had he kept quiet. But, pretty sure that he won't mess with Domoto-san as easily as he did with Iida. She was too sharp and doesn't easily communicate with just anyone.

Ha Min pretty much spelt out what exactly is wrong with this series. And the two of them. But, I feel bad for Do Ba Woo , particularly after the ending conversation in EP5.

Except for whatever too bright filter that they used to overlay the scenes, the first episode was unexpectedly cute and funny. Not to mention the epic ending.

@Sima uploaded the image from the manga in which the EP4 scene occurs and you were right! Maki-san was indeed the third wheel in the trio.
I'm rewatching the drama right now, and it seems like Suzuki understood that Yukiko might've had feelings for Maki in EP1 after the cafe scene. Infact, the whole of EP1 in the scenes with the trio, it's always somebody's expression changing while seeing the other two together. (first, we have Suzuki, Yukiko and Maki in the cafe, then we got Yukiko in the parking lot, then we have Maki himself during the group photo.)

As for EP3, I thought that it was Maki asking for Suzuki/Suzuki's memories to not drive Aoki mad as he had just revealed that he had gone through his brain.
Maki is an easy, yet complex character to read. But, from what I got at the end of EP4 and EP6, he was unwittingly drawn to Aoki, inspite of his decision to remain an overworking, cold, Chief who is seemingly awaiting death.

Aww! Thanks! That review still requires a few tweaks as I had just completed watching it and wanted to write down the jumble of emotions somewhere. :D

This was intense. It reminded me of a TW drama 'Oh No! Here comes trouble!' though both the dramas cannot be compared, except for their vivid depictions of the deceased, their emotions, the people they left behind and their desires, albeit in different ways.
Suzuki's death was a surprise. I didn't know that Aoki was a totally different person.

Maki was truly a lonely character. Even with Suzuki and Yukiko, he still stood apart. Suzuki might've had the connection from their University days that made him believe in Maki, but it didn't go further beyond that. Kaimuna was kind of on point with some of his observations, even if he was a psycho.

I feel that Aoki is much more genuine since he got to know and understand Maki-san under very different circumstances. I never felt the 'one-sided' vibe from him.
Also, Okabe-san was another hidden hero of the story. Have to give it to Yukiko-san too. Girl really went head to head with both Maki and Aoki in EP6, EP10 and 11. Though, Aoki still didn't seem to get it. She was strong even as an independent character.

Seeing Maki-san living in his labyrinth of guilt was tough. The final parting words by him made me feel happy because it seemed like he finally found someone who wouldn't disappear on him. (There is a scene somewhere where he looks at their photo and thinks that he knew he would be taken away. As to whom 'he' refers to, I'm not sure.)

All in all, a hopeful ending and a time well spent from my side. :D

I think she wanted to be the head of the Goto family as a part of her revenge and desire to destroy everyone. Not because she really wanted to be a 'leader'.
Even the Gotos (if you can even call them that at this point) were terrified of her.
In the beginning of EP1 (which I guess is somewhere near the end of the drama) we hear the pilots say that there is a huge fire and requesting backup. So, I guess someone did end up burning the place down.
And it seems that the villagers are starting to turn against them too.
Well, I hope that Daigo survives all this mess. Man has seen and heard too much.
