When P'Aof is listed as the director and/or screenwriter of a series, you know that it's going to be a highlight – from "A Tale of Thousand Stars" to "Bad Buddy", "Moonlight Chicken" and "Last Twilight". "Moonlight Chicken" is typical of his work – the story is well written, the actors perform at their best level, and the production is top notch.

There are 3 couples in this series. The story of Jim (Earth Pirapat), the owner of a chicken diner, and Wen (Mix Sahaphap), a real estate agent, is a classical strangers-to-lovers story, whereas Li Ming (Fourth) falls for blind man Heart (Gemini) and makes him enjoy life again, and Khaotung (as Kaipa) and First (as Alan) play a couple again as in ”The Eclipse”.

A lesser writer/director may have made this series mere fan service, as all three couples are extremely popular among BL fans, but not so Aof. Here we have three love stories that are all beautiful and uplifting.
