Literally I’m a bit in shock because I thought it will be “another sweet and loving series”, but definitely I am wrong.
What Kon and In have lived 30 years ago about accepting, unfortunately in many countries are still the same. For example, I’m from Serbia and in my country is forbidden to be gay or open minded about that. A lot of abuse, abandonment and self-killing is still present.
There are no many of us who are living life in the way we want, but watching these kind of series it could change some peoples mind.
I’m really happy that I could find Thai series and learn a lot about love and romance. I still believe I will find it one day....
Anyway, I will continue to watch another episode and who knows...maybe I will repeat all 17 episodes ☺️
And to all who will start watching this series: BELIVE IN YOURSELF AND EXPECT UNEXPECTING!!

The romance isn’t rushed, there’s a perfect amount of fluff to the point where it’s not considered boring.
They also know when to take time away from the romance and get to the more serious aspects of real life problems and the whole event which triggered this story in the first place.
Although the show isn’t finished yet, I feel like I have to express how nice it is, the story has me genuinely intrigued and connected with it. The music in the beginning Ep.1 was misplaced in my opinion, but onwards it gets better. The acting can obviously get cringey at times, but the actors fit their rolls nicely and you can see that throughout the progression of the show. I believe this will be a nice drama for many people.

Why I dropped a show with a good story
Watching BL shows and dropping BL shows I've figured out what is first and most important thing to me.The acting and the chemistry between the lead characters.
You can tell in the way they touch each other in scenes and the looks in their eyes. So far, there are only three pairs of actors where I can say with no doubt that they make the love feel real between the characters (see my "good pda" list).
The actors don't have to be perfect, but I need a significant amount of moments where the love feels real. The initial interactions can still be awkward because it makes sense getting familiar with a person. But I want to be able to feel the want from both characters' emotions. I've only completed 10 shows, but everything I've given good rating has the kind of acting and chemistry I'm looking for.
I wanted to like this show. The premise is amazing and the writing is good. The music for the important moments is very moving. The problem is that both the past life couple and the present life couple, the love didn't feel real. It felt like acting. And maybe my criteria is harder to meet than I realize. But more than 50% of the shows I've watched have the acting I'm looking for.
I know this is a highly regarded series, but it misses the most important thing I'm looking for: the comfortability between actors.

No, the main roles are completely different level. Both the main couple boys sadly cannot measure up to the "flashback couple" we see right in the beginning of the series. The two end up tragically in a blatant stupid scene, when they shoot their brains out while both their fathers are only helplessly watching, but then the unexplicably good cast (one of fathers is portrayed by Nirut Sirijanya! where did Wabi Sabi get Nirut Sirijanya?) is gone and for the rest of the series we are supposed to watch someone... well, else. The only big role for a female is a loud, chubby and annoying girl, to remind us we are to firmly concentrate on boys, here. Mean Phiravich is in insignificant, small side-role. Considering that is how they used the most attractive guy they had on the whole cast... Most viewers praised the second couple. Shall they save this?
So far, I keep watching to give this a chance. There are still scenes with the "old couple", which I skip by now, though. I can watch either one version or the other. And if I am to give chance to the "new couple", I have to quit watching the old one. And I honestly want to see how much there is to this couple if we don't count the past life destiny thing.
Also, there should be the 'WinTeam' couple to watch, and I am all for it, if they should be free of any "reincarnated lovers" cr*p. But, as the secondary couple, they have less screentime: so I'll have to wait for it...
Episode 4, Mean Phiravich's character expresses his interest in one of the boys. Whoops! Tricky. I'm sure I am now not alone who'd just ride on this wave and watch another 'Love By Chance 2' here. Who cares about the other boy, now? He can't beat Mean Phiravich.
Epi 6: Scenes with the previous life couple KEEP coming. Why?? The cast is SO much better. It's more interesting because they live in late 80's when being gay is not so much in fashion. But, as their scenes are only random flashbacks, this show's creators did not have to do the whole "period" drama properly. Instead, these scenes help the contemporary lame duo - threatened by the presence of Mean Phiravich - to have at least some chemistry, thanks to the audience already knowing their tragic love past story and therefore feeling for the characters even before they earned it. See, on both accounts, this show's creators made their job easier for themselves. So, my guess is we'll watch this half-and-half for the rest of the series...
Also this episode, for the first time I noticed WinTeam interacting a bit. There is also Plan Rathavit in his little guest role and it's SO cute you wish to keep him & the main cast to p**s off:) But they stay there, virtually haunted by the CONSTANT flashbacks. I smirked thinking whether people would be able to actually live their normal life, if everyone was able to remember their past lives so readily.
Epi 7, the boys said to each other that they remember one another from the past life and that they found each other now. The way I see it, it could be the end of this story... I feel no need to weep about it for 10 more episodes. Perhaps next role of Mean Phiravich will finally be in something good?

Until We Meet Again - A Masterpiece of Emotion and Chemistry
"Until We Meet Again" is a series that beautifully weaves together an emotional and compelling storyline with outstanding performances and top-tier chemistry between its on-screen partners. This show has truly set a high bar for romance dramas.The storyline is nothing short of amazing. It follows the poignant tale of lovers whose lives were tragically cut short because their families refused to accept their relationship. This narrative is both heart-wrenching and deeply moving, as it explores themes of love, loss, and reincarnation with a sensitivity that resonates profoundly with the audience. The way the series handles such heavy themes is commendable, making it a gripping watch from start to finish.
The acting in "Until We Meet Again" is superb. Ohm and Fluke deliver performances that are raw and genuine, bringing their characters to life in a way that makes you feel every joy and sorrow they experience. Similarly, Boun and Prem's portrayals are equally compelling, adding depth to the overall story. Their chemistry is top tier, making every interaction feel authentic and heartfelt. The bonds between these on-screen partners are palpable, elevating the emotional stakes of the series.
One cannot overlook the fantastic OST that accompanies this series. The music is so good that it seamlessly enhances the emotional beats of the story. It's no surprise that I've added these tracks to my playlist. The OST perfectly complements the narrative, making the viewing experience even more immersive.
I've rewatched "Until We Meet Again" more than six times, and each viewing is as captivating as the first. The series’ ability to evoke such a strong emotional response and maintain its impact through multiple viewings is a testament to its quality.
In conclusion, "Until We Meet Again" is a masterpiece that excels in storytelling, acting, and music. The chemistry between OhmFluke and BounPrem, combined with the moving narrative and exceptional OST, makes this series a must-watch. It's a show that stays with you long after the credits roll, and one that I will undoubtedly continue to revisit.

My thoughts on this.
I have to say, it started off slower than I thought it would, which as it went on, I thought was a good thing. I like how they didn’t make it out that right when they meet each other the weren’t “together” with-in like a day; like they do in some things.This one definitely gave me the feels throughout the whole thing, they both know how to cry when they need to, I’ve seen actors having crying scenes and not really cry, it just makes the whole scene feel less than it should, but these two actors are very good actors I have to say. Plus, they have really good chemistry with each other. Also, it’s not just Pharm & Dean’s actors, this has exceptional acting for them all.
I also want to say, I loved how everyone was shipping Pharm/Deam even the ones who were going for Pharm/Team 😊 I thought it was a cute thing to have in this, after all there was so much important emotional subjects in this that having that little cheerfulness from everyone was a nice change of pace in the show, to bad they stopped doing it once they got together. I think they should have kept it in a bit even after they were together, just another little thing that could have eased things up a bit throughout.
Oh one more thing before I go, they needed to show Dean wet WAY more often then they did. Damn, talk about hotness! 🤤😏😋

In a class by itself
I don't have sufficient grace with words to express how excellent this series truly is. It will break your heart and make you smile and sometimes laugh out loud. The story is well told and very well acted. Each of the couples, especially our main couple (both present and past versions) embodies these roles in ways I cannot explain other than to urge you to watch it for yourselves. There are elements of bittersweetness and joy threaded throughout and it's lovely to witness. I lost sleep watching this series, I cried so many tears, I laughed until my stomach muscles ached, I signed in happiness and contentment, and I was sad and a bit lost when it was over. But well satisfied. I cannot recommend this series highly enough. In my opinion, it's one of the best examples of filmmaking I've ever had the pleasure of enjoying. Until We Meet Again is a worthy way to spend more than a few hours and you will not regret spending that time in the least. I promise.Esta resenha foi útil para você?

At some point the constant crying scenes loose their intended effect
This series had a nice concept. It’s not the most original in the world, but it’s different for a BL. The problem is the fact that there are 17 episodes. Without much story, it ends up being too repetitive. Every episode has a couple of dreams/nightmares, followed by one of the many characters waking up crying, it’s like a never-ending loop. Then there’s the crying when they feel something that reminds them of their early life. By the end I’d seen them cry so much that it had no effect on me. To make matters even worse, I feel like we don’t really get a relationship out of Dean and Pharm. A majority of the things they do is based on what In and Korn did. Their only real original moment as a couple was going to the aquarium.But there are good things. Manaow is amazing in every second she’s on screen. TeamWin is my favorite couple by far, even though we don’t get as much of them as we should (again, 17 episodes…). I also have to point out the condoms. I don’t remember other shows bringing up condoms at all, so that’s a big plus for UWMA.
Until We Meet Again could have worked as a 10/12 episode series. Stretching it only made it worse.

Heartmelt Level 1.000.000.000 :)
I absolutely loved this show, rewatched it many times since we first "met".The story is a unique mixture of heartbreak and cuteness and funny moments, the acting is great (Pharm's character in Fluke's performance is so adorable that he makes my heart melt in almost every single scene), the music is moving and beautiful, I pretty much loved everything about it. (I guess it's the perfect recipe for a successful TV show - at least for me -: touching story with beautiful and loveable characters at beautiful scenes with beautiful music and mouth wateringly good looking food as an extra; this show had all of it!)
It might make you tear up at some points, but it has lighter, comic parts too where you just can't stop smiling, it's sweet as honey. I recommend it with good heart! <3

A cinematic masterpiece
I rewatched this drama for the third time this past week and words cannot express how much I enjoyed it.WabiSabi always does an amazing job at story telling and they have amazing cinematographers on their team.
The story was so interesting, well told and well thought out. The way the story is told always draws you in making you feel deeply the immense trauma that the characters were going through. This series came out four years ago and I am in disbelief every time I realize how old it actually is. It transcended its time in a way I don't think any other BL ever has or ever will. The actors picked for this series were the cherry on top, they did an incredible job at depicting their respected characters while also being a satisfying visual that aided in the immersion of the two couples.
I am not good at expressing myself very well but in conclusion this drama is one that I would recommend to everyone to watch at least once.
