The Boy Next World

You'll understand the meaning of my review title after you watched this series. This supernatural fantasy romance BL series tells a story about Phugun (played by Noeul), a naive boy who was the lover of Cirrus (played by Boss) in another parallel world. Or so Cirrus claimed. At first glance, this series is about the multiverse, just like many other series so far. But as it turned out, the story was focusing more on the romance than the multiverse part. They talked more about their feelings rather than applying more about the multiverse. Which is a little disappointing to me. Cause I think that this series can be made more intriguing, if it's filled with more stuff about the multiverse theory. But even so, this series isn't bad at all. It was well directed and acted. Although, in my opinion, still can't compare to "Love In The Air", another BL series with BoosNoeul as its main couple..

I think this is the best MMY series so far. I have never enjoyed a thai BL plot this much before. Normally personally i didn't like the plots of most thai BLs (except kinnporshe) that I've watched, i just think most have no good plot just cringe dialogues and stuff with lots of plot holes, but for the boy next world , i loved everything about it. The acting, the OSTs , the storylines, the aesthetics , the characters EVERYTHING. The OSTs deserve some good awards because I've never been so obsessed with a Thai Bl OST this much before. It's definitely worth watching imo. It's true tho that the ending doesnt really match with the whole vibe of the series and i wished they changed it a little bit, but it was also really cute adorable and wholesome. I was never a fan of BossNoeul before even though I watched Love in the air several times (their previous show if u are new to the fandom), i mean i liked them for sure but i wasn't really into the fandom. It was the trailer of TBNW that made me interested and then i started watching BN videos and stuff and once the first ep came out i became a fan instantly. Their acting were incredible in the series and I genuinely think they deserve more praises for this series.

First off, that title is super misleading. I went into this expecting something sci-fi or truly about a parallel universe, but nope apparently, Cirrus is just making up stories in his head? I honestly had high hopes for this one, especially with the cool premise, but I ended up feeling a bit disappointed.

I do like the main couple, though! I first saw them in Love in the Air, and they had such great chemistry there. That's partly why I stuck with this one. But here, Cirrus feels like he might be dealing with multiple personality disorder or some kind of dissociation, which is never really explained clearly. It gives the story a mysterious edge, but also leaves you confused, like, "What exactly is happening here?"

That said, the cinematography is stunning, and the visuals are vibrant and clean. Btw, I actually found myself more invested in the side couple and their unique dynamic, especially the whole mind-reading twist. That was kind of fun!

To be honest, though, I kinda just finished it because I already started it, I feel like I was forced to finish it lol, but hey, I saw it through.

More people need to watch this incredible series. If you're sure if you are into Thai BL then this is a good series to start with. Although there is a romatic storyline, the plot goes so much more beyond that. It's abount acceptance of others and yourself, friendship and the heartbreaking importance of family and the role they play in your life. The acting is phenomenal to the point where believe what you're watching is real, and everying from set design, liighting, editing etc is all carefully crafted and thought out down to the smallest detail. If you enjoy a love story with a magical twist to keep you guessing. Try watching The Boy Next World.

I didn't expect this show to be that good, but I actually got pretty invested in it. The comedy, the characters, the chemistry and the plot twist- all of it was really good. I've heard some people found it misleading ans didn't like the plot twist but I was quite happy with how it turned out, I even watched the special episode and I almost never do that since I get bored easily but overall this show was super cute- so cute.

There was one moment where I was like "ugh really, again?" and maybe a couple scenes felt a bit long but honestly it was nothing serious. Every thing that confused me got cleared up in the end and I found myself smiling almost the whole time. If you're considering whether or not to watch it- watch it.
