It’s intense, thrilling, romantic...
Okay, honestly? This is one of the best thriller murder-mystery BLs I’ve watched so far.
From the very first episode, the tension pulls you in and refuses to let go. Every time I thought I had figured out who the murderer was, the show said, “Oh really?” and threw another plot twist right at my face. New villain. New motive. New suspicion. I swear, at some point, I looked at almost every single character as the killer. I kept questioning everyone — who had what reason, who benefited, who was hiding something.
The chemistry between Tan and Bun was just chef’s kiss. The slow-burn tension, the trust issues, the longing it all felt so real. And let’s not lie… Great in that fitted uniform? 🤌🤤
Absolutely illegal.
The second couple? Those kids were SO cute. They added softness and warmth to an otherwise dark and intense storyline. I think they deserved more screen time. They're so underrated 😭💔
But the Plot Twists Deserve an Award🤯
Jane’s murderer genuinely shocked me. I did suspect her at first, but just when I was almost convinced it wasn’t her — BAM. The reveal hit hard. And the things that unraveled toward the end? Slightly traumatizing😭
It’s one thing to know Jane suffered, and another thing to find out why she did what she did.
That part was genuinely disturbing and heartbreaking.
I kept praying for a happy ending. Or at least for everyone to survive. When Inspector M “died,” I was in complete disbelief. I was so ready to cry because I did NOT accept that he would go down like that. Seeing him again?
Instant relief.
The Minor Plot Holes👀
Now, while the series was brilliant, there were a few things that made me raise an eyebrow:
1. Why is no one locking their doors?? People just casually walk into houses at any time of the day or night.
2. They found evidence like the rope from Jane’s case and the injection from Pued’s murder… but never thought about checking fingerprints. Yet suddenly at the end, Por carefully uses a cloth to avoid fingerprints? Now you’re concerned?? 🙃
3. Someone had an abortion three months before their death… and that didn’t show up in the forensic report? That felt like a major oversight.
Despite the minor loopholes, Manner of Death is absolutely worth watching. It’s intense, thrilling, romantic, shocking, and emotionally heavy in the best way possible. The chemistry delivers, the suspense keeps you hooked, and the twists genuinely surprise you.
I would 100% recommend everyone to watch it at least once.
It’s a ride. And trust me — you won’t see half of it coming. ❤️
