Heart wrenching, tearjerker, and overall a well balanaced story

Usually, I don't feel very emotional when watching a film/series. But this drama is the exception. My heart is full, my eyes are wet, my hands are shaking. NGL this series has left me with a pain in best, worst and the sweetest possible way.

Let us come to the plot and the storytelling. A very well written script. The mystery factor of how the story is unfolding is kept until the end. The plot is well developed. Pharm and Dean, the main leads are university students but they keep dreaming of two people whom they never met yet feel like they know all along. When they meet each other in the university for the first time, they feel an instant connection of attraction and pain that overwhelm them.

I like the reincarnation theme used in most Asian media. Reincarnation is a trope that is I am very familiar with. My country has been successfully using this trope in films since 1949. In fact, by now it is overused to the point that all juices has been squeezed to nothing. Most of our films usually use the reincarnation theme in two ways. First is to tell the stories of lost lovers where usually one party/sometimes both remembers their past life or somehow (almost always by some accident) they remember about the past life. Second one is there maybe lost lovers who were killed and in the new life they want revenge.

Until We meet Again fall in the first category. And they use this theme masterfully blending the two timelines.

There is an instant attraction between the main leads, Pharm and Dean but there is slow burn that builds up their relationship. I like that very much.

The plot also talk about homophobia and unacceptability of gay people in their home. It is already proved that suicidal thoughts, attempts and rate of it is usually higher in lgbtq+ community. So, iIcan understand and completely empathize with Korn.

Coming to the acting Ohm Thitiwat as Dean is brilliant. Every glance, every smirk, every expression of confusion and pain, his broody attitude, his stares at Pharm and the softness around his eyes as he looks at Pharm, every touch and caress is lively.

Fluke Natouch as Pharm is amazing. His shy glances and innocent face while he is in love is very open. And he describes pain through his expression flawlessly. Every time he remembers the past and his expressions contorts into agony and tears, especially at the last scene when he finally meets the man who hurt him and his love, and the look of horror as he breaks into shambles is so well acted, I could hear my heart beating fast.

I love their dependency and trust in each other. When Pharm is crying Dean is their by his side. When Dean suddenly has a meltdown (ep.15) Pharm is right by his side. A good balanced relationship.

Do I need to talk about Earth Katsamonnat? Because the boy is the epitome of beautiful acting. Earth has never disappointed me. Kao Noppakao has done his job very well.

Characters are very well written. Let me talk about the side pairing. Boun as Win and Prem as Team are good. They have done their roles as supportive friends very well. Their own dynamic is interesting too. I love how Win looks at Team with open fondness on his face. Team is a bit tsundere when it comes to love. But their dynamic is different than the main leads and I loved the different flavour.

I love Manaow. Although I disliked the body shaming that Team was doing but I loved how Manaow tackled them all. Her story with Pruek is completely out of the blue. I wish they had cultivated the relationship a bit more.

I loved loved the showcase of Thai food throughout the show. It definitely added a delicious touch to the whole story.

Cinematography is good. I will not say it is excellent but it's good enough and does its job well. Music elevated the whole watching experience. I love the OSTs and also the BGMs used.

Overall a really good experience . I will rewatch it sometimes for sure.
