I love Past-senger the series from BEGINNING UNTIL THE ENDING (with some improvement points)
I WILL BE AN OUTLIER from all the negative comments this series received.
Story - I liked the overall story of the series, it is a mix of 1990's and 2022 era. I, myself, a 90's kid. This series reminded me of the casette tapes played in the radio and even the phone booths wherein cellphones/mobile phones are not yet existing at that time but obviously the main symbolism of this series is the pager of Kiew. When he was transported to the future, that pager survived for 27 years which means that the memoirs of the past would never fade. What I liked so much in the series are the dance scenes by the friends and their the funny moments (Kiew, Prach, Ann, Keng, and Art), Priest Phuang Ngoen punishing Kiew and the fortune teller in EP 8. However, the Bamee's amnesia plot from EP 9 could have shortened to one or half episode so that other scenes may have been showed. As for the ending. I did not see any creepy moments at all between the present-day Kiew and Bamee, In EP 6, when Kiew followed Bamee in a bar where Bamee had his part time job, Kiew lusted for Bamee. But anyways, it only proved that love knows no boundaries even the present day Kiew will exceed beyond the extra mile to make his May-December romance with Bamee work. When Kiew got back to his time, he remembered Bamee until he grew old in which the present-day Kiew appeared which I find it very touching. This changed the course of the future. By the way, the actor who played the role of older/present-day Kiew was award-winning actor Utt Uttsada Panichkul from the well-known 2016 BL movie "Fathers" with Nak Sakdatorn and a former MTV VJ Host. The title "Past-senger" is also a unique title. I also liked the effects and visuals as it gave an oldie vibe.
Acting/Cast - I liked the chemistry of Cooper and Marc and the combination of old and young actors. I am also a fan of May-December romances, I think Marc and Utt may be a good pair.
Music - I loved the theme song so much. "Unthinkable Bond (Relationship)" by Ice Sarunyu. It has a vibe of an oldie to early modern themed music. As a 90's kid, I appreciate this type of themed music and very compatible with the title of the series.
Rewatch Value - I will definitely rewatch this series since I want to reminisce the oldie to early modern vibe of this series, but I would appreciate if there would be a Season 2 for this series because I want to know how will the present-day Kiew and Bamee will continue with their May-December romance and the reaction of Art and his friends if they will discover their May-December romance.
