It ended, but didn't give me answers I sought.

Well, I didn't get any answers to my questions about James' father, the reason why James has that super-ability of seeing auras, or whether Chita was the only Nour who could kill others. And I could definitely think of more that I had along this journey. 😳But I did like what they did there when Ken had to choose between catching the dousing flames of Chita's fire in hopes to die OR trying to save James. If he had chosen to die in the flames, James probably would have died too. Instead, he chose to try to save James, yet held on to his promise not to turn him. 🥹And I think, precisely because of his selfless choice, that actually might be one of my favourite scenes of the main couple, if not my absolute favourite one. In my eyes, it showed how deep his love actually was, because he didn't turn him into a Nour so they could live for eternity together. Instead, he made sure James gets to live the life he wanted — as a human, and with the man he loves by his side. 🤗The third couple also got a happy ending, and I am glad the mother was ok with her son dating another boy. But I was a little disappointed by the ending for Jirat and Chita, because I expected way more than just a quick death... But I get it — Jirat didn't want to live as a Nour, nor did he want Chita to continue his revenge. Love prevailed and Chita chose to kill them both to put their souls at rest... BUT I did like how they showed that — those videos of happy little moments of daily life. I guess it meant their paradise in wherever they went after death. 😌In conclusion, I want to add that this was my first Thai BL drama, and I realize there are things I have to get used to if I want to watch more of these. They caught me unprepared for the scale of physical intimacy they show. But I will be ready next time! Overall, an interesting watch, but nothing I was too hyped about. 👍

well that's one way to end a BL i guess...…

well that's one way to end a BL i guess... this had such a strong start & it held up well through most of the ep's - until the last few... & then it took a nose dive IMO. which sadly isn't a new thing with these Thai BL's (well seen some K & J BL's & dramas that suffer from a similar fate) & it's also deflating to watch something that really hooked u be such a let down by the end - but it is what it is & then end - which is a plus cause there no more b.s. plot to suffer through. am thankful the mains survived (in a fashion) still am left wondering why/how James witnessed Ken's Nour soulmate using Ken to "take himself out" - is James the reincarnation of that soulmate? or was this info he would depart to Ken when the time came so he wouldn't have to keep living after James "kicked the bucket"!? who knows as there aint gonna be more of this - that i know. **********************************the Chiat & Jirat "ending" was kinda meeh on so many levels - even before this ep i knew they wouldn't have a happily ever after cause it wasn't logical they could - Chita for one was a serial murder that was hunted by the law & unlike in the past in this day & age it's hard to live off grid no matter the country. u can try but it's near impossible & if that wasn't enough Jirat was kinda suicidal & was just looking for a reason to end sh*t. so i wont cry a river on their end & i genuinely don't think they (especially Chita) deserved a happily ever after. until the end he went out thinking he was justified in all the pain he caused when the Nour's he "took out" didn't do a thing to hurt him - they for sure wasn't the Nour that hurt him or his Nour soulmate that turned him. on the other hand i was very happy for the 3rd couple - now that was sweet & very wholesome... was hoping we got some closure with the budding love pure love, so i am glad their budding romance was addressed & this didn't end just with the mains. this was good & sadly it didn't stay good but i would rewatch this & fast-forward the eps towards the end

What a start! I am already invested!

Oh, what a start... 🫨Dr. Han, why didn't you look at your blind daughter ALL THE FCKIN TIME? I wouldn't turn my back on mine no matter how important the call is. 😟But all I can say, I am already invested... My impression of this is very good atm and so far it gives me some vibes of Squid Game, Hunger Games, and 24h combined... I am really looking forward to watching this! 😏And the Trolley problem? I first heard of it in Fringe and I know very well what they meant by it... Damn! 😳P.S. I love the authenticity they are adding to this by using actors from the countries they represent and their national languages... Now I can only think if the kidnapped people are held together, Saori might develop some bond with the blind girl.

This episode actually gave me more questions that answers.

Chita's story is sad, actually. I believe his leg stayed crippled because he got the injury while still a human, and him becoming a Nour couldn't heal him completely and remove those scars. 😔 In my opinion, he isn't evil and deserves a redemption arc for what he has done... AND as far as we know, he kind of went only after Nours. SO, was James' father also a Nour? 🤔Another thing that got my attention here was the way Ken spoke to Chita about "us"... Could that hint that Ken is also a Nour who can kill other Nours, except for himself? Maybe Chita also can't kill himself? Or Nours can't kill themselves in general? This raised so many questions for me... 🤯 But I might have misunderstood something too. If so, I hope the last episode will give me answers to those questions. 😳And can humans even kill Nours if they need special Nours to kill them? So is there really any point for James to keep chasing after Ji and Chita? 🤷‍♀️

the mains r cute (in a toxic kind of way)…

the mains r cute (in a toxic kind of way) but idk i just don't buy the hot & heavy chemistry between them - it lacks actual passion IMO & idk why i feel this, no matter what they r doing - especially in so called intimate scenes... also given how Vincent treats Fei Foon, i don't know how much i am rooting for this couple. cause even though - now Vincent knows Fei Foon aint a street thug, i doubt anything will change - yeah he has feelings for him - that's evident & very mutual. but does this mean a healthy, open relationship? from what i saw, i don't think so & it's not cause of either jobs or career path. i don't think Vincent can come out of the closet & be open about his sexual orientation. ***************************************************************************also given the start where we see Fei Foon as an undercover cop i think that was foreshadowing & the new bad guy will be the clumsy loveable newbie in the new department, Fei Foon has joined. i don't think he was brought in just to make Vincent jealous. but time will tell -
