Amazing!
I started this show after putting it off for a long time, and I'm glad I gave it a chance.The actors did an amazing job. Whether it was for a funny scene, a heartbreaking scene, or a romantic scene. I loved it all. I think that they were perfect for their roles, as they all acted as their characters so well.
This is actually my first time watching something with Byeon Wooseok and Kim Hyeyoon (separately). I knew about them and knew that they're loved by many, so I had a feeling that this show would be good. Glad it turned out to be much better than "good". Also, I think that the producers/ director made a good choice by casting those two together. I honestly felt every emotion they portrayed. The love they had for each other felt so real that I really considered the possibility that they might've been crushing IRL lol. I will definitely check out their other dramas as well.
The side characters were really funny, and I enjoyed every little weird thing they did. They made me laugh a lot more than I'd like to admit. When Im Sol's brother and friend started to do aegyo with each other, I cringed so HARD haha.
Although the grandmother didn't make me laugh as much, she definitely surprised me. I know that actors are supposed to be able to play multiple characters with different personalities, but the fact that she played the same person but differently (pre-dementia and post-dementia) made me respect her a lot.
The bad guy wasn't always there, which I think I like better than them being in every episode for longer than they should be. He was a little mysterious and ominous, which I quite liked. He didn't act like some super villain with the biggest ego. Instead, he was tricky but still careful with his actions. For the record, I'm not praising the character lol, but rather the actor. He did really well.
At first, the whole time travel and different timelines made sense. But in the end, when Im Sol went back to erase herself from Sunjae's life, I had a few questions.
For starters, how did Sol's brother and friend still end up together? In the original timeline, they weren't together. They only started to have feelings for each other because Sol and Sunjae got closer when she went back in time. But then she changed the past by making sure he never met her. So how did they catch feelings again?
Second, Im Sol's mother's hand. Again, in the original time, it was different since her hand had a big scar on it from the fire, but Im Sol prevented that. How did her mother's hand come out perfectly fine in the final timeline? Did Im Sol go back again?
Lastly, how did Im Sol stop her own accident from happening? She tried a couple of times before but failed. So what changed this time for her to be perfectly fine in the end?
I actually have a few more questions, but I will keep them to myself.
In conclusion, this show is complicated in a good way. I honestly didn't know what to expect, but this show warmed my heart and left me with a big smile on my face. I loved it so much and would absolutely watch it again!

A surprising drama…
When I first watched this, I had no idea who the actors were. I just clicked it because it was New Year and I was home and had nothing to do. Before that, I did debate because I had never watched Xianxia dramas before. I never liked how fantasy looked when it comes to chinese drama, but oh wow. Going in without expectations was the best thing that ever happened to me. At first, I only loved Lu Yuxiao’s role, Ming Yi. I wanted to know what she would do and what Hou Minghao’s Ji Bozai would do once he found out about her secret identity. The more I watched the more intrigued I became of Ji Bozai and kept watching til the end because of their unique acting, the angst, the comedy, the music (which I didn’t expect that my fave song was actually sung by jbz himself) and the chemistry. I have to admit though… Ming Yi did stress me out halfway. I kept shouting at the screen “girl just tell the truth!” But anyways, I kept watching as I felt bad for jbz lol. The good thing is… I could at least really feel that she loved ji bozai just as much as he loved him. They were both equally strong, equally devoted, and equally willing to live and die together. I’ve seen other dramas where it felt one-sided. Plus, there were both likeable characters, even as solo characters. I really rooted for them. So… that said… For 2026, this was my hidden gem. 1000000/10. In the end, I finished it in two days. With maybe two hours of sleep in between. I probably didn’t even eat.Was this review helpful to you?

It gives off a vibe similar to Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha, but feels even more fulfilling.
We can feel that the female lead is fragile on the inside, while the male lead is incredibly strong.I love the scene where the female lead cries over her friend’s passing, and the male lead comforts her by saying she doesn't have to maintain high standards for everything. This ties back to how she holds such high standards in her service business; when it comes to grief, you don't need to overthink whether it's time to stop feeling sad. If people are sad, they should just let themselves feel it.
He doesn't expect anything and doesn't hold her back, but that doesn't mean he doesn't miss her or isn't waiting. He is waiting quietly, without putting any pressure on her.

Watched it for the third time, still amazing
Last Twilight was my introduction to JimmySea and I have never regretted deciding to watch this. I just watched this for the third time, slowly watching it over the past few months. Its incredibly fun and enjoyable to rewatch even over a long period of time.This is one of the best modern queer stories out here and also a great introduction into the world of Thai queer media. This story doesn't particularly focus on the fact that this is a queer love story, which is one of the reasons I love it. I love a good conversation on queer topics but it's also refreshing to see a story where the two people are just in love with eachother regardless of identity! It tackles topics like grief, disabilitys, loneliness, dreams and so so much more.
I will praise JimmySea's performance to the end of time. They bring these characters to life and make everything seem so incredibly real. You can tell they put their all into this piece of art, it really shows.
Though I love this to death. It is not perfect. My only really meangful criticism is that the story and pacing isn't the cleanest, especially towards the end. I noticed it way more rewatching it, because I'd have a harder time picking it back up again. On first watch though, it's hardly noticeable. I get criticism on the ending, but personally I wasn't as bothered by it as I thought I was. Without spoiling it, they do what you don't want them to do. And somehow you walk out of it pleased with the show.
10/10 please please watch it
I want to watch MMP again now..

An absolute waste of a perfect cast.
There wasn't any need for this drama to be 14 episodes long. It was full of dragging unnecessary moments.From the beginning the reincarnation story was conflict enough, there really was no need for familial feud with incomplete plots.
Help me here, who is it that stabbed Cha Se Gye, the drunk driver who almost killed the grandfather? What was done to them?
Gosh it was vexing indeed.
And the villain, the conflict resolution was very mediocre, and talking of karmic revenge, I don't think even karma would be that halfhearted.
The cast deserved better.

servant x prince forbidden love? I'm SOLD!
started this with zero expectations, I'm surprised by how much I liked the first episode!this is my first time seeing Ongsa and Inn. they are both so incredibly handsome! especially Ongsa, omg. he's BEAAAUUTIFUL 🥹 and they're both such good actors too 💕 AND HOLY CRAP THE CHEMISTRY IS 🔥
I was not expecting to see Pond in a negative role. he is such a versatile actor, always manages to pull off every role he gets!
overall, the first episode seems very promising. I will be looking forward to the rest of the drama!

Not bad for a Thai GL comedy!
The comedy is decent, the chemistry between the leads is on point & nothing particularly annoying happens throughout the entire show. -review basically overThere is a minimum character limit on MDL, so let's talk about the story & setting a bit. Of course it's completely nonsensical aka utterly ridiculous, but the show does not take itself seriously at any point & the annoying tropes are for real kept to a minimum, and so the end result is a very unusual Thai drama that is actually worth watching.
Though I suppose personally I would have preferred less fan service. It's great that frequent sex is implied for a young couple, but it's almost softcore porn-ish here. Anyway it doesn't bother me much, I know how to use the fastforward button. If I had to choose between Korean style pre-teen romancing & this, I would go for the latter every time.

Love from first principle
This is a highschool rom-com about first/young love that is as pure love story as it gets, which normally wouldn't be my thing but here it just works. It helps that all the characters are really cute and endearing, and the cast really captures the awkwardness and anxieties of having a crush as a teenager, especially Michieda Shunsuke as Aoki. Much of this felt like watching newborn fawns stumble their way into love for better or worse. Personally I hoped for a bit more development in Aoki and Ida's relationship after 10 episodes as many other series do more with less, but I think this is still well worth a watch for all the cute and silly moments. I think a S2 that explores the next stage of the characters' relationships could be really great.Was this review helpful to you?
Even before I finished it I was thinking when to watch it again
I really loved this series.For me, the biggest strength was definitely the main couple. They were simply lovely together — sweet, natural, and full of chemistry. Their relationship had a beautiful development throughout the story, and it felt genuine rather than forced. I really enjoyed watching how their connection grew, with just the right amount of tension, emotion, and softness.
The acting was also very good, especially between the leads. Their chemistry made even the small moments feel meaningful, and I think that is what made the story so enjoyable for me. The plot itself was not something overly grand or groundbreaking, but it was nicely written and had a good flow. Some small plot twists fit well into the story and added a nice touch without making things feel too dramatic.
What I appreciated most is that the series had exactly the kind of feeling I look for in this type of drama. It was not overloaded with unnecessary drama, but it still had enough emotional moments to make the relationship stronger and more memorable. It created those pure, warm, romantic feelings that make you smile and dream a little.
Even before I finished it, I already knew I wanted to watch it again. And a few months later, when videos from the series started appearing on my social media, I immediately felt that it was the right time to return to it. Watching it again only reminded me how much I loved the couple and the feeling the series gave me.

Best K-Drama of 2026
As the title says, this is easily the best K-drama I've watched this year, and I've watched a lot of dramas.After sitting through disappointing releases like Perfect Crown, My Royal Nemesis, Teach You a Lesson, and We Are All Trying Here (no offense if you enjoyed them), this one felt like a breath of fresh air. The gap in writing and acting quality was honestly huge.
I decided to give it a chance because the poster caught my attention, and I'm so glad I did. Lee Jae-wook absolutely delivered in this role.
From the very first episode, I was hooked. The writing is strong, the directing is great, and the cinematography is absolutely gorgeous. Some shots genuinely look like works of art. Everything flows smoothly, from the transitions to the dialogue, and I never felt like the story was dragging. At several points, I got so invested that I completely forgot I was watching a drama.
The story follows a doctor who gets sent to work on a remote island, which leads to all kinds of unexpected and often hilarious situations. Between his patients, the island residents, and the endless chaos that follows him wherever he goes, he's constantly dealing with one problem after another. By the halfway point, I was like, "Yep, the title makes complete sense now." It couldn't have been more fitting.
One of my favorite things about this drama is how well it balances comedy, romance, medical elements, and melodrama. That's not an easy mix to pull off, but it never feels messy or forced. Everything blends together in a way that serves the story.
What impressed me most is how the drama keeps getting better with each episode. It had me laughing one minute and tearing up the next. It's funny, heartwarming, heartbreaking, and incredibly human. The humor is always present, but it never takes away from the emotional moments. If anything, it makes them hit even harder.
The pacing is also excellent. It never feels rushed, but it doesn't drag either. The drama takes its time developing the characters and their relationships, which makes everything feel earned. The interactions feel genuine, and the whole experience is immersive.
I also loved the main couple. Their chemistry was amazing, and I enjoyed every scene they shared. Their relationship develops naturally instead of being rushed, which made it easy to get invested in them. There was something very warm and comforting about their dynamic that made me root for them from the start.
As for the acting, I honestly don't have a single complaint. The entire cast was great, but Lee Jae-wook deserves special praise. His performance felt incredibly natural, and his facial expressions alone had me feeling every emotion right along with him.
Overall, I can't recommend this drama enough. For me, it's everything a good slice-of-life drama should be: funny, emotional, heartfelt, and genuinely well written. If you enjoyed Dr. Romantic, there's a very good chance you'll enjoy this one too. They share some similarities in terms of atmosphere and medical themes, but this drama still feels completely unique and manages to stand on its own.

Awaiting Part 2
These 4 episodes are part 1. Part 2 is yet to be announced but what an exciting start!The story revolves around the ML who has been falsely implicated in a company corruption scandal and someone decides to help him anonymously. The episodes initally were a bit confusing since we weren't sure what was happening. Each episode reveals the information little by little so we get the full picture of the situation.
Sukfilm is known to hide extra kiss scenes behind membership but even without those, the drama is very intriguing. I'm glad they tried a mystery short. Also the other lead gave me chills with the way he switched personas. He has done a great job in this drama! I'm looking forward to seeing how this drama concludes in part 2.
The music as usual is really great but you won't find Sukfilm OST without a membership.
It's worth a binge or wait till part 2 is also out. Either way, part 1 is worth watching for the acting and the thrill!

The Writers forgot to take their Adderall.
She was framed for her grandmother's death by her sister, her father, and her mother. When her mother is in prison, she admits to not liking her and didnt feel a connection with her. The only saving grace in her family is her maternal aunt who is an absolute gem of a human being. She was taken in my a mob boss who she saved during her nightshift. Im confused as she barely worked in the hospital during the show. But shes also a student who almost gets kicked out of school until the ML comes and saves her. It feels like the writers were trying to hit a bucket list of tropes. Honestly, I'm suprrised no one suffered amnesia halfway through. The revenge on her family was satisfying. So I guess there is that.Was this review helpful to you?

Explosive Chemistry
Okay, the brother didn't just have amnesia. He had a whole personality change and I love that the main leads called him out on it. The 2FL was shortsighted. She could have stayed quietly by the 2MLs side and he likely would never have found out what she did. On that note, why do you owe someone your whole life if they saved your life. It sets the groundwork for people pretending to save people and them making astronomical requests of the person they "saved." Case in point.A standout scene was when Liang Si Wei (ML) begged her to choose him and like him. It reminded me of Meredith Grey in the elevator scene in Grey's anatomy. I was scared it was foreshadowing a breakup but thankfully it didn't. The leads had explosive chemistry that translated really well on the screen. It was hard to remember they weren't a real couple.

O sea es q simplemente llegaba y la ilusionaba para dejarla sola otra vez. entiendo que tengo sus traumitas, pero sea hombre hermano. Solo me gustaba cuando era directo como cuando le dijo "pero estas enamorada de este desinteresado" (ya no recuerdo q era lo otro)

So close, but still fails
I really wanted to love this show. The ML is eye candy. Although the premise is nothing new, I was excited to see how it's portrayed in a J-drama vs. a K- or C-drama. I'm so disappointed! Without giving spoilers, my biggest problem was the lack of consent from the women. Why, oh, why do directors/writers/the powers that be feel like it's necessary to have the men not respect women's wishes? Why must they not care about getting consent from the woman they supposedly care about?Was this review helpful to you?
