Engaging stories. Interesting topics

I watched this drama after Kiss Me Again, since the events in this series were supposedly taking place after that one although this drama was shot earlier.

Well, it is not an actual follow-up story. I kept getting confused, mostly because PeteKao is not happening AT ALL until the final eps and even then its not a follow up, but a repeat of Kiss Me Again. Weird.

On the other hand, the stories that we get in this drama are very engaging. We have good guys and villains, we have humor, tension, love and excitement. The story I liked most was the SanDee/Thada arc, where these two are quite obviously in love, but don't want to risk their friendship for a relationship. It takes a pregnancy scare and their friends intervening for them to finally admit their feelings to each other. Their interactions feel very real and raw. Side-note: Thada's hair deserves it's own drama!

The other interesting story is between SanRak and Na. Even though they are both a few years older than SanDee and Thada, they both have a lot of growing up to do, and they both do before they are ready to be together. I got a lot more chemistry from Na than from Rak, but that could be intentional.

Props go to the makers for realizing that side characters matter to the experience of a drama. The villains as well as the friends are well-developed characters with their own lives, hardships and reasons. Pick, Jane, June... thank you for making this drama even better. I'm paraphrasing June saying he may be viewed as the comic relief, but that's because he wants to make his friends' life better than his own. Such a gem!
