I saw a promo for this lakorn on youtube once and fell in love with the storyline I saw in those few seconds, however I looked everywhere but couldn't find the subbed version anywhere, after finally finding it I decided to start watching it. I spent two days infront of my computer screen, and watched all 18 episodes.

The acting was very good, the leads did an amazing job. It was very well balanced, every time the story got too heavy or sad they found a way to throw in a funny moment or two. The storyline itself was very well written, there were few unexpected twists and turns, no plot holes, everything was well explained in last few episodes. They portayed relationships so amazingly, and had it all bromance, romance, family love and love and respect between teammates and co-workers

There was so much effort put into casting, the younger versions of characters really looked like the older versions ( Direk's characters really looked alike and Perth had wuite few similar futures to Chai ( the actor who plays Sia Ha, not to be confused with ChunChai).

-SPOILERS AHEAD-

This is where I'll discuss some major plot points, if you don't want the content to be spoiled, stop reading here.

This lakorn made me cry six times: when Kom died (watching him talk that kid out of suicide then doing it himself broke my heart, and watching his wife and his child made me cry even more, and to not even mention seeing how broken the Inspector and Rut were), when Suam told Rut about her "dad", when Rut asked Suam for divorce, when Suam met her actual dad and when they dug up his remains, sixth being when Sia Ha saw Chai's ghost.

The fake dad or Singh made my skin crawl, he was a disgusting human, if he can even be called that, not to mention being a total psycho, when he laughed while telling them what he did to Oil, it made me want to strangle him.

Sia Ha and Chuchai almost brought me to tears, especially when Chai was remembering their past, it's so sad how much Chai actually loved Sia Ha and cared for him, when the other was not able to feel it back. When he saw him in prison it broke my heart, the fact that he still couldn't realize he did wrong.
Even though he was supposed to be the main villan, I couldn't hate him that much, seeing how broken he was and obviously sick, he had imagined being a saint and helping all of those poor people, while he was just pure evil.

I hated Su wayyy more then her father, she made me sick.

What I liked the most however, was everything that was going on between Sara, Neung, Suam and Rut, Rut's and Sara's relationship, when that one reporter called Rut Sara's partner and seeing how much he was missing him after he disappeared brought tears to my eyes, Neung and Suam making up and going against Da and Su made me so happy and their interractions were everything,the small details also made me really happy, like when Sara asked Suam if she's okay after they saw the other two together, or when Rut was mad that Neung (of whom he thinks as of nong) was staying with Sara, Rut and Suam teasing Sara after he got together with Neung, I just loved it all.

I also really appreciate that they didn't make Sara stereotypical friend who MUST fall in love with main female lead, but instead they made him a caring friend and showed that girls and boys can be real friends.

Secondary characters made the show all better: Way being a proud trans, the Snow White team members being adorable and badass when they are together,Teerak being the biggest shipper ever and of course Bu I loved him for beating Singh up and also Nat, he was so adorable.

It was simply put amazing, 10/10 recommend.
