It wasn't awful, just kinda boring

I would say I did not need to watch this one, so if you really like office dramas with almost no plot then this one is for you.

It is a short drama so I know that it is hard to get story elements to fit in but other shows of a similar length have had some more interesting plot points and dialogue.

The bigger Jun (idk what else to call him) also came off as a little bit predatory to the other small Jun in the begining so I wasn't a huge fan of that, they knew each other for about a day and big Jun was already making some big moves on small Jun-part of that is because they used to know each other but small Jun didn't know that-still weird.

The ending feels slow, I am not too sure why there were 3 separate guys all going after small Jun. Once the two Juns confessed to each other it still dragged on with the other two love interests like the confession never happened. Small Jun just couldn't say no to anyone besides big Jun. He spent so long rejecting big Jun, why wasn't it that easy to reject the other two interests?

I will say the casting was good, I even liked the side characters to a degree. If there was more plot I feel like the whole cast could have shined a bit more since a lot of the show was just standing around and talking in their office about things I already forgot about even though I just finished the show. I wish they showed the second couple a little more, they also used to know each other but don't talk to each other for the first half of the drama and it ends with them just getting to know each other again. It would have been easy to start their story earlier on so they could have more development since they knew each other.


TLDR: slow story, wanted more plot, good casting though for a shorter BL

Great Idea, Execution Was Off

I like to give BLs some benefit since they are not like normal dramas but although this one had a great premise that I was excited for, it ended up being slow and lacking in action, especially for a show about ghosts and ghost hunting. I will preface this by saying I did end up fast forwarding a bit towards the end due to some of the long parts of dialogue, but more on that later.
The main premise is that the main character, Kevin, comes back from America to visit his aunt, uncle, and 2 cousins for a break. He gets to the house and feels like something is off and although he learns later, he doesn't know that the whole family died in a car accident and the 4 are trying to hide the fact they are now ghosts from Kevin. The second male lead whose name I don't know was hired by the ghost family to help with some house chores, although I don't know how they hired him or why they need help with that at this point. Once Kevin finds out the family is dead, they try to make the best out of the last moments before they fade.
This was all in all, a great concept-but I didn't mention above that Kevin was a ghost hunter-which would sound exciting, but really it wasn't in execution since he only ever saw one ghost and the ghost looked like the second male lead at the time.
The two main guys were fine, both of their looks and their acting was just fine, but like with the rest of the story, they just talk. A lot. Same with the ghost family. This show suffers from telling, not showing. They will talk and talk about what is happening or about their past and sometimes there is a little background clip that will play showing what they are talking about, but otherwise it is purely just them talking back and forth.
The main relationship is a little bland. I never really found out why they really liked each other past just looks and one of them being scared sometimes.
The story they have made is interesting, just them only talking about it breaks some of the emotion that might have been there for some other parts of the story, like about Kevin's roommate that died which is why he started ghost hunting. They only talk about it until the later episodes where they show it finally, but at that point I feel like there isn't much emotion attached to it as much as I would like due to the whole story being laid out verbally already.
I will say the ghost family had some cute moments and good casting, especially for the two cousins. You do end up feeling bad for them and how they died.
Overall, the story was there with some good moments between the ghost family and a few with Kevin and the family as well. I will say not very rewatchable and I wish that there was a little more planning with how the story was told and it might have made it more engaging in the long run. I really hope to see more ghost dramas though, especially if they level them up a bit as there is so much potential with them.

Suprisingly Endearing

I have watched countless shows both from when they first started coming out in Thailand and the newer shows that have been coming out more recently. It is so easy to have a show that is boring, no chemistry, drags on, etc. and no one wants shows that feel like eating dry saltines. This show thankfully goes around all of those potential problems to create a very endearing and cute show while still having a decent plot.
The story is engaging enough to keep you watching throughout the whole show without getting bored or dragging too much. There are some fun twists and turns throughout and some surprisingly tense moments.
The actors are very good too. There is some good chemistry between the main two and three are lots of cute moments between them that starts out as trying to help the ghost find out how he died and changing into something more. The side characters don't disappoint either and lend some fun energy to the show. I will say I feel like at some points Singto who plays the ghost could have been a bit more expressive or dramatic, just felt like he was holding back at some emotional scenes, but aside from that a very nice pairing.
I can see how some people wouldn't be a huge fan since it is not action packed, a lot more story based. I would put it higher in action and story than a high school/college BL but less action and story than a drama like History 3 or KinnPorsche.
Definitely recommend watching as this has turned into one of my comfort shows and is just a heartwarming show to tune into.
