If not at work, at home watching dramas

If you are looking for a regular BL story from Thailand, this may not be the series for you. But if you are looking to watch a unique and different series that will have you both laughing and crying, give this series a chance. I personally took a break from Thai BL's, cause I was annoyed with the same repetitive storyline over and over again. I watched other shows from other Asian countries (some BL, some not) to replace Thai BL's for the time. And I think that it worked out for the best of me, cause it made me appreciate this more and to rate it for that instead of being all in my feelings over a series. Also, people need to realize that The Shipper is most closely like that of Great Men Academy and My Dew, not like the regular Thai BL that they are accustomed to.
Story-9/10
There was some aspect of the story that I liked, while there were a few that I didn't (one being the teacher/student relationship). This series dealt with love, life and death. It starts off in a comedic tone, but it does not stay there. Yes, I was rooting for Way and Kim to end up together, but they don't as it is revealed that Kim dies. I was devastated when this happened, but Kim told Way to live his life for him and not for anyone else. Yes, he loves him and they can't be together but he should live his life for himself to be happy, which I see as sad cause Kim lived his life for his parents and also for Way and not just for himself. And due to that he was not able to get the happiness that he wanted/deserved.
The first time I cried for this series wasn't even for the love of the boys but was with Pan and her stepfather. That's how I knew this was different. I wasn't crying over any of the boys but due to an actual love between the stepfather and his stepdaughter. That moved me so much. I was glad that in the end Pan choose her happiness over trying to make others happy and that her and Khet were boyfriend and girlfriend. P.S- I also adored every scene the Angel of Death was in. P.PS- the ending left kind of an opening for Kim as he may be able to comeback as he was given a proposition from a voice. Comeback as himself or as someone else, that is what is still left up in the air.
Why I didn't give this a full a score is due to the bullying that was included in this series, the cliche girlfriend and also the student/ teacher relationship.
Acting-10/10
All of the actors in this series were excellent. They were able to bring across a story and it was beautifully told. None of the characters, not even the supporting ones, dissapointed me.
Music-8.5/10
The beginning OST was so cute that it reminded me of an opening for an anime. And then in the last episodes with all of them dancing to the song was the icing on the cake for me. The ending OST was beautifully song as well.
Rewatch Value-8/10
I would rewatch it, but not right now. And that is due to the emotional rollercoaster that I was carried on by binge watching this series in a space of two days.
Overall-9/10
It was a great series. It taught lessons where one of them is be happy for yourself and not just for others. It took me on a rollercoaster of emotions, making me laugh, cry, be in shock and kept me on the edge of my seat for twelve episodes straight (not a lot of dramas can do that for me). I would most definitely recommend this to others to watch.
