Rak Nakara (2017)

This is my second Thai historical drama from Taew and oh boyyyy, I do not regret watching this at all. Although I've only l watched episode 1 and the first part of episode 2 with English subtitles (since I couldn't find subbed episodes ANYWHERE), I continued to watch until the end since I got completely hooked from the beginning. I really really love Taew and her acting, this is also my second time to watch Mark Prin, and oh gosh, their acting is so superb! The story (though not completely understood since there were no subs) and the OST was so beautiful! I'm hoping someone would sub this and I'm going to definitely rewatch this!

I LOVE RAK NAKARA AND YOU SHOULD WATCH IT!

FIRST OF ALL. THIS REVIEW CONTAINS SPOILERS!

***If you want to find English subs, go to @banmarkpantip_inter on Instagram. If you scroll all the way to 2017, you'll find subs. The whole drama is NOT subbed. Only most of Mark and Taew's scenes are. Some Mew are too! It is not in video form, they are written subs! Thank you @banmarkpantip_inter for English subtitles.

You can find English Subs on CatAttack. Thank you! :)

Ok, if you don't know what Rak Nakara is about, I'll tell you in a quick nutshell! Rak Nakara is about two half-sisters. One is named Man Muang (Taew). And one is named Ming La (Mew). They both get into arranged marriages to make alliances or greater relationships with the other kingdoms. Ming La fell in love with Jao Noi Sukkawong (Mark) when she first saw him, so did Man Muang (but she kept it secret to herself). Many things happen with both of the them. Later on in the story, Jao Noi and Man Muang have a lot of secret feelings and misunderstandings. Ming La is also in trouble. At the end of the story, it is a tragedy. This is a story about duty, love, and sacrifice.

This drama has so much mixed feelings. I absolutely love it! This is one of my favorite dramas! If you have not tried it, then you are missing out on something so good!

Story: The story was very well put together. I had very high hopes for this, and it satisfied me well! It was not draggy, and that's a plus.

Acting/Cast: I could not have thought of any cast better than this one! Everyone fit into their roles greatly! Jao Noi and Man Muang's love story is one of my favorites. It's beautifully grown, and improved even with all of the misunderstandings. I love Mark and Taew's chemistry. It's so sizzling!

Music: I loved the music! It fits in perfectly with the drama!

Rewatch Value: I'd most definitely rewatch this. This is a drama that makes my soul feel pleasant and nice. This drama gives off a tranquil, but heartwarming feeling to me.

Overall: Rak Nakara is a drama you shouldn't miss! It's so worth your time!

EVERYTHING IS A 10 because it is so perfect. THANK YOU AOF AND DAENG FOR AN AMAZING DRAMA WORTH WATCHING.

THANK YOU TO ALL THE ENGLISH SUBBERS ONCE AGAIN. :)
