The Feel-Good Part
This BL drama series is one of the most well-made and original series in recent times. The acting was very effortless and natural, and the chemistry between the two leads was the cherry on top. The storyline is written very thoughtfully as everything is interconnected and is a piece of the puzzle which fits perfectly, kudos to the writers! The background score suits the scenes perfectly resulting in a perfect outcome on-screen.
The Disappointing Factor
Though the series has an amazing plotline, the later episodes failed to match up with the initial episodes of the series. There is a little change in the character’s personalities in the later episodes, which might be hard for the viewers to connect with the characters. Spoiler Alert! The ending of the series was poorly executed and surely felt rushed.
In-Depth Analysis
Triage is a well-written Thai BL series that adjoins the several branches of storytelling together, in a way that doesn’t make it messy. There is originality in the plotline and narration, despite using the theme of time-loop. The small details which might seem unnecessary, perfectly fit into the puzzle. The acting was top-notch and the characters were perfectly portrayed by the actors. The narration and screenplay of the series are particularly praise-worthy because of the mystery of the next scenes, which will surely give an adrenaline rush to the viewers. However, as much as the series is well-written and executed throughout its course of airing, the finale of the series couldn’t do justice to the otherwise perfect series and did feel a bit rushed.
