I was looking forward to this one

So far, none of the previous 'Cupid' stories has received higher than average rating from me (some received lower). But this one I was looking forward to: cast is hot (he's the lead from 'Fatal Destiny') and also this girl's character got my attention since the first introduction at the beginning of the first story (she said falling in love & having a boyfriend was too EXPENSIVE, lol).

Tono & Nychaa make kinda uneven couple as he is decade older. But Pear Pitchapa's nang'rai makes things unexpectedly interesting (and I am a kind of audience who is NEVER interested in having a nang'rai:) Also this nang'ek, who is capable of chasing a purse-snatcher on a motorcycle and then beat him with her helmet, just because he took her money, then replying dead seriously to the pra'ek who's kidding her that he would sign her up for next race on big money, that if the money is big she would do it, keeps things from boring. So you see, I had to wait for 6th Cupids story out of 8 to finally not be bored, at least. But their kiss was fake. So, though I was not bored, I was not pleased (there's something so hot about Tono Pakin, but it's wasted here). But, we see more and more glimpses of the final couple's story, which I suspect would be the best (Ken Theeradeth:)

In conclusion, this was a nice watch, WITH the exception of the skinship. It's a pitty as else the two of them seemed so natural, and they LOOKED super cute together. But when it came to a kiss, it always changed to rigid or awkward... Okay, there's a real, but stiff kiss in episode 6 (Nychaa is just too young and/or constrained to really go for it). And also with the exception of the stupid role of Honey Passorn Boonyakiat (and the whole side line that concerned her character) or the fact that another side-character goes way too much psycho for this kind of genre. It filled the final episode with amateur crime cr*p instead of romance and I seriously thought the death too much. Looks like (*sigh*) even this Cupid story won't make it over average rating.

Cupid Hut is a dating agency, this show was supposed to be about dating. Not about the agency to end up being sued for not doing enough background check and letting serial killers in. It's hard to think about romance after that. The producers of this should concentrate on one genre, preferably the one they were able to do in good enough quality (I am actually tired of pointing this out while watching lakorns:)
