I went into this drama with no expectations. I just thought the title was cute. What I discovered was too much cuteness. Mook was a great heroine. She was sweet, but complex enough you could really identify with her. Push was everything. He was charming, funny, sweet and a total pain in the ass! Their chemistry was undeniable. The best support was Bee. He's the friend I wish I had. Seriously people watch this. It's short and sweet, but complicated enough to keep you engaged. Plus you'll fall in love with the cast!

This was a completely fun Thai drama I've become a avid fan of Puttichai Put's growing body of work and his performance in this will not let you down. I'm looking forward to watching the rest of the dramas in this four part series. Fun storyline and fun casting are poured into this. I was able to find it translated on youtube I hope at some point Viki will add this into their line up for I really hope they expand soon on their collection of dramas / lakorns from Thailand.

The music in this pretty much had like it's main theme song that carried through it. But as far as rewatch value goes it's one of those fun and short dramas you could watch again and again for it didn't have annoying crazy girls or overly evil mother or any of that it was just a fun watch on young relationships and friendships I'd give it a 10 on it being a current view on Thailand dating.

I am so loving this drama. I giggled like a little school girl 90% of the time until things got serious then I was 10% in control mode. The story had it's meaning and I enjoyed the way it was told. I kept thinking "I want to hang out with this group in real life". They all seemed to gel well and had great chemistry. I am now a new fan of Push, the actor that plays Bee and the rest of cast mates but esp. Push. He seemed genuinely charming and funny. Bee (actor that plays role) was hysterical. Loved the story, loved the cast and I am happy I gave this drama series a chance. Great job by everyone. It was just fun to watch and of course their is an important message behind the drama. Enjoy the laughs.

This review may contain spoilers
First review in a long while, for the first Thai drama I've ever completed. I didn't even remember why I decided to watch this in the first place. I've never came in contact with Thai drama, except for a few cuts of Full House (Thai). But it ended up raising my radar for Thai dramas.

Storyline: CUTE, CUTE, and CUTE. Totally adorable. I know for some people, this drama might looks stupid, unrealistic, etc. But WHO CARES? This drama is supposed to be a no-brainer anyway. I really enjoys the chemistry and interaction between Joo & Seua. Oh the puppy love! It gives me butterfly every now and then. And... No spoiler, but just so you know, the ending might be even better than you imagine. LOL.

Actors: Even though the impression left by Joo's character is a little less than I've predicted, but others' character left a pretty deep impression for me, especially, Seua's character. He looks so damn fine & natural, it looks like he's acting as himself. And for some time, I was totally infatuated with Push, until I come to my sense. But that is how good his acting is for me. And for Bee's character, he's such a sweetheart! Would like to have a friend like him for myself.

Overall, if you're looking for a no-brainer, puppy love, all-rainbows-and-unicorn kind of drama, you might want to consider watching this one. The chemistry is perfect, the actors are outstanding, the storyline is light and fluffy. Definitely a must-watch for romance-lover out there.

I'm going to completely honest, this was the first thai drama I have ever watched so it took me time to get used to their language and their style of film. I enjoyed the character development and oh gosh thai girls and guys are so attractive. THEY ALL LOOK SO FRIGGIN BEAUTIFUL HOW. The osts were ok they weren't particularly catchy (i dont remember how the opening even sounds like) but the casting was really great. I enjoyed the story line but I felt that some parts went a little too slowly. Other than that, the first thai drama I've ever watched was pretty decent.

Super cute, we all need a P’Suea minus the obsessiveness

This is a super cute, short, funny happy drama with eye candy in the form of Mr Perfect, Push Puttichai. Super easy on the eyes and when he smiles... WTH. It is the brightest, sunniest and happiest smile you’ll ever see. Add to that those dimples.... ok, enough fan-girling and back to the review.

I love that it’s short and that it has something of a message, I mean it is the Ugly Duckling séries after all. The FL is super cute and she captures a genuine sweetness through her acting that makes you just love her, her skin problems and all. But my fave character was Bee. I mean, talk about Queen. One of my favorite gay characters ever, and Thai l’aliéna have great gay characters - not just those stereotypes but really great characters who just happen to be gay. He was so supportive and so on-point. I want a friend like Bee!

As much as I loved P’Suea his character started to get overly obsessive and mean to the FL. I felt that they overdid it and it just made me dislike him for a second. Guess we can call is something of a character semi-arc (but not a full one).

So if you need a quick fun happy Thai lakorn to watch this is definitely the perfect choice. And best of all, you can watch it on YouTube with full Eng Subtitles which is a real treat bc Thai lakorns with Eng Subs are really hard to come by unless it was a super mega hit in Thailand. Which means, this one obviously was. :)

I CAN'T BELIEVE IT'S OVER. I WAS SO ATTACHED TO THIS SHOW AND I WISHED IT WAS LONGER!

The story is very simple, yet unique. It holds many typical aspects of a rom-com, like cute romance, a dreadful love triangle, amazing side characters. an adorable main couple, and some great eye-candies. I found that the pacing (up until the last two episodes) were done amazingly. While each episode felt like it took a long time to end, I was never bored or tired of watched. It was fun and made me laugh and fangirl to my heart's delight. The ending was a bit rushed to me, especially since I felt so annoyed with the main characters!!

I loved all the characters and their development! The casting was done fairly well, and though some people didn't like Joo's acting, I thought she did a pretty good job. You could definitely see her improvement throughout the drama, which was a nice touch. All the characters brought some light into the drama and made it even more adducing.

At first, I didn't really care for the music. Nothing stood out and I didn't feel the need to buy them on iTunes or to download them. However, after 2 days of watching, I found myself humming the songs at school and realized how much i loved the soundtrack. The background music was always a nice touch, BUT MAN I LOVE JOO'S AND BEE'S RINGTONE! Excuse me while I go hunt these songs down on YouTube now, haha.

Again, I don't typically rewatch dramas, but i might go back and watch my favourite scenes again.

Yah, I had a fun time watching it, so I would definitely recommend checking it out. :)

I came across clips of this drama on instagram. At first I thought their acting was a bit iffy and felt somewhat cheesy but after watching the drama I came to really love the story especially the male lead. I cried the 1st episode too! (showing how captivated I was, I kept watching). Also this is my first Thai Drama I ever watched. I would usually watch Korean Drama's but this one caught my eye. ^^ Very light-hearted, funny, and I guess educational?lol

Light hearted story

This is very lighthearted story , about finding the true sincere love. Finding a way to love ourselfs so others can fall in love with Us. I liked the story very much. Both Male and Female lead played they roles perfectly. This is one of those stories which you can rewatch many many times and will not get borring. I like the lessons in this story. Female lead love it that is this story she is kind hearted , friendly , maybe little naive yet her innocence is the point in this drama. Perfect female lead to this role and hell Yes we already know that P'Push is one of the greatest actors. Perfectly fittet into that role.

I really liked the story, and it was nice to see Push as a more sympathetic character for once.
The only thing I didn't like was the ending, it was too much of a cliche.

Based on my rating of all the aspects of the film: yes the story is average, the acting is seriously average (Push is the most solid and good acting; sweetheart's acting needs improvement but it looked like her first gig).  I liked the music because I kept hearing it.  That song just grew on you.  You couldn't help but like it.  Despite all this average --- the rewatch value is EPIC.  I have rewatched this drama 5 or 6 times already.  It is the only Ugly Duckling story I have survived.  I hate all the others.  It is the only one that has a storyline I can stick with in the sense that I get the characters and what their looking for.  

The overall premise is searching for a love and friendship that isn't skin deep.  Although you would think this should be the concept for all the Ugly Duckling stories, it is more so fitting this story, the starter, than any of the others. Since you have wealth and beauty as attractions.

It's a deep concept that's presented in a weak way but executed by attractive actors who are average at best and exhausting at worst.  It's the comedic relief and attractive actors and to be honest the chemistry between the leads that make the story interesting and engaging.

As I said, I find it utterly addictive.  I'll rewatch this to doomsday. My review may seem dismal, but again, it's worth the watch and rewatch, and rewatch, and rewatch, and rewatcch.

It's a super cute drama with a lovely storyline and a very cute cast. The actors potrayed their characters very believably. I totally bought mook as this naive pretty rich girl and suea as this handsome penniless guy. Their chemistry was beautiful. I loved their playful fights, teasing, and cute cum romantic scenes.
The only and VERY slight take away for me was at the last ep, where suea's few comments sounded very sexist and quite frankly humiliating. M glad he realized his mistake.
Otherwise, I really like the story, loved their chemistry and honestly found their teasing and playful fights very adoooorable n entertaining!!
I highly recommend this. Do watch. It will give u butterflies in Ur stomach the entire series☺️☺️
