• 2. Revenge is forbidden.

• 3. They can not engage in human affairs.

If they break any of these 3 rules, there will be terrible consequences they will face.

My Thoughts:

I have been kinda waiting for this drama because it had an interesting story and as I watched it, it's much more than that. Though I don't like some of the characters at this point, mostly because there's too much angst and sadness but I get where they're coming from so I just roll with it. Anyways, the humour here is top-notch especially when you see an actress take on the character of a returned ahjusshi. There are lots of other interesting characters as well.

On to the story itself, I like how the two strangers who come back to the present world find out, they have much more in common than being the first to go off a train to heaven. Their lives get so tangled up that they just have to be in scenes together and that's just it, when they're together, it's gets super interesting. 

There's so much potential for this drama and I can't wait to see it materializes. So enjoy drama-watching.

After some time passes, both fell in love with Kewalin and Kewalin also loves both of them in their own ways but how would she choose?

What will the love story of the 2 men and 1 woman be like when 2 men share one body?

My Thoughts:

First and foremost, I had to create a simple synopsis for the story since the one I got was either too long or didn't fit the story at all. So, if I miss anything, I am sorry. It's simple and short in a sense.

Now on to the story, I am on a roll for Thai Dramas and this one also came from a Youtube Random. It looked interesting from the video I saw and immediately watched the drama while also being lost because this is what happen when I don't read the synopsis before watching. But, I managed. But, this was an interesting drama despite it's looks. I only watched 2 episodes currently and it felt like I watched many already, one being it was almost 2 hours per episode and another being it was cut into 9 parts per episode. 

The story was interesting and the portrayal of character was great. I am totally immersed in trying to find out what's going on in the moment and what's gonna happen because the characters are unpredictable. What can you say when one actor is acting two different characters at different times? I get confused at times. But still, this is absolutely worth the watch.

The fantasy part caught my attention when I watched it because well right from the start, fantasy appeared but then, the characters themselves caught my attention. It's interesting to see how they move along with the story and sometimes how absurd things are because in a fantasy drama, I love absurd.
