OVERALL : Sompong Nong Somchai is an enjoyable gender-bender drama. It's not the best but not the worst either. The last few episodes are especially enjoyable. The main downside of this drama may well be the video quality. Unfortunately, I could only find the episodes on YT with quite a low resolution.

STORY : I love gender-benders so I'm biased. And for this one I'm biased x2. Why? Because there are two women dressing-up as men. As a result, you get two types of gender-bender in one since they have very different characters. One definitely wants to hide her sex while the other would love to reveal the truth to a certain someone. The subplot, the 'spy' story, is more developped towards the end of the show, making it more interesting. Still, don't expect some exceptional plot, it's a romantic comedy first and foremost. Just enjoy it ;)

ACTING / CAST :
I was surprised at Sompong and Somchai. For gender-benders, one of the criterias is the disguise. The actress playing Somchai could really pass off as a man, especially when she changes her voice. Plus, she is gorgeous when dressed as a woman. The same could be said for Sompong. Although you can see more clearly her feminine side, she could pass off as a young man with her strong punch.

MUSIC :
Nothing much to say. I liked the song, it was catchy. There's one downside though... Because they dance on Tewa's song, there's nearly only this one during all 13 episodes. So if you don't like it, don't watch it.

REWATCH VALUE :
Well, it was enjoyable but the video quality will prevent me from any rewatch. Maybe a bit of the last few episodes because I really enjoyed them...
