Ghost? Yes! Horror? No!

This started off with a great premise. I was hoping for something like Let's Fight Ghost. A protagonist who is able to see ghosts and fights with them or tries to understand them with their skills and give them a befitting send-off. But how sadly I was disappointed.
The MLs are surprisingly good looking, and are decent actors and have nice chemistry. But I really wish they had chosen something more fulfilling in terms of their roles. The plot of the series kind of throws a spanner in the whole running of it. Started off decently well. Kawin comes back to Thailand after 10 years to his aunt's house. He is vlogger, and runs a live ghost-busting show. His idea is to see if he can see the ghost of a 'friend' he lost. Later references sort of make it clear that he was more than a friend. In Thailand, he finds Pleum, who works in his aunt's house as a man of all trades. Feelings develop between the two, and Pleum falls really hard for Kawin. He becomes a support system for Kawin when he realises that his entire family are ghosts. They have been dead a while. Kawin and Pleum work hard to give a proper send-off to everyone.
But the whole plot disappeared from there. Why and what exactly happened to everyone? Why did Pleum so easily forgive everyone who was possibly his father's killer? Why was Kawin so obsessed with his 'friend'? I hated that he left Pleum without saying a single word. He let Pleum find out through a live 7 days later. If you are in love with someone, you don't get intimate with someone else. You don't use the same endearments as you did with your 'ex'. And I hated Pleum for being so forgiving. If it was me, I would have never forgiven someone who hurt me this badly and walked away without a single thought as to what he was leaving behind. And then he had the audacity to sort of confess, while letting him know that he had no plans to come back.

The one and only amazing thing about this series, Tod's really cute shorts!! No wonder Pleum could not keep his hands off him!! NCs were well done, especially the last. Kisses were spectacular!
All in all, I hated it. This could have been so much better.
