I enjoyed the writers view of this story. I felt they wrote a strong unique view of reincarnation after a tramatic event. And the production did a great job to bring the effort forward. I enjoyed most of the acting. And I love the development of the relationship.
I think my biggest challenge was the way the writer(s) and director wrote Pharm (Intouches soul in Pharms body). I was taken back that he cried so often ( every episode) and over so much. I'm not in their shoes and definitely I am not judging. And that he had things to be upset about. I just think it was too much crying (crying instead of trying to learn and understand) and that subtracted from the show for me, but I still enjoyed it. I realize the soul was speaking and that something entirely it's own, but it just didn't sit well.
I felt that if you remember your past life and it was bad; you do everything possible to enjoy the new life. Don't repeat past mistakes. Accept your failures, realize your strengths and grow/mature as a person. But most importantly know the past, look at it even if it hurts and learn and rise above it. After all, it's your past. You have to move forward as best you can!

I've been really into binging BL dramas recently and let me tell you right now, no series has affected me this much emotionally ever before.
The characters all add at least a little bit to the story unlike some other BL's where the characters are pretty irrelevant and only there for decoration. The plot also features bits of trivia about Thai desserts and cultural beliefs that I found to be quite unique as well.
Without going into too much , the moments where the main couple comfort each other are really sweet and a little heartbreaking at times.
*Most* of the flashback scenes are honestly kind of skippable, but that's entirely up to how you like to watch your dramas.
I highly recommend watching this series alongside Between Us, which focuses more on the side couple and adds a few more character romances as well. It's not completely necessary, but in my honest opinion is that without watching the second series, the side couple feels a bit random.
*Skip the next paragraph if you don't care to watch Between Us too*
If you're planning to watch them at the same time like I did, I think the spacing is 2 episodes of Until We Meet Again, then 1 of Between Us at first. The timeline gets a little wonky but you get s general idea of where it's at based on the events that are happening. I would also watch the finale of Between Us after Until We Meet Again since that's FOR SURE an extension.
*Okay end of blabbering*
I've seen a lot of comments on forums + reviews complaining about how much the main character cries. He DOES cry like- every episode. I personally found no issue with it though. In fact, I'm pretty sure I cried more than he did while watching LMAO.
It's not an annoying type of cry, but if it really bothers you I'd say, try to think less of the reason he's crying and more of the feeling(?) hopefully that'll make sense once you start watching.
Idk how to end this review but stan manaow she's an icon.

You will be moved by an award winning acting of the characters, a phenomenal story and storytelling, and a powerful brilliantly crafted film. This series is emotionally impactful to all LGBTQAI+ community of the modern time and 💯WeStan #talentreview1
I felt that the story line was pretty nice, the way reincarnations were handled and the connections were framed was great too.
As for the ships, Korn and In's story was beautiful, Gun and Team's was fun, I personally liked the other ships more than the main ship of Dean and Pharm but that doesn't mean it wasn't well versed.
There is a lot of content involving Thai cooking, which was nice as for representation of their culture and tradition, but sometimes felt lengthy and like a diversion from the BL theme.
All the characters were acted well.
Fun fact: I started to watch this series after watching the poster featuring TeamWin thinking that they are gonna be the main ship, lol.

This series has to be reviewed in the context of the BL genre, specifically those made in Thailand. So, compared to other Thai series, this one stands out from the rest by a mile. And it's as good as anything you'll ever see from Korea, Japan, or China. The high concept and great production values put this series almost in a category of its own.
This plot is actually kind of ingenious and the way it's told through the editing of two separate but connected stories is absolutely first rate. The actors are all well suited to their roles, and are skilled performers. The two leads do an exceptionally good job. I don't recall ever seeing actors produce tears on cue as often and as convincingly as is done here.
Be warned... although the ending is satisfying, as they used to say of the 1940s movie genre called Women's Weepies, this is a five handkerchief series. If you are not moved to tears episode after episode, well, you're a better man than I, Gunga Din.
For lovers of the BL genre, this is unquestionably one of the best out there. For those unfamiliar with the genre, have patience, and stick with it. There is payoff after payoff as the plot unfolds. And, it has one of the sweetest, most satisfying, and longest first kiss sequences I've seen. You know, we wait and wait for these kiss scenes, so it doesn't take much to satisfy us. We have learned to take what we can get. Here we get one that is really, really worth waiting for!
