Thank goodness the main leads had chemistry!
This show is hot garbage!!! I COULDN'T EVEN GET EMOTIONAL BECAUSE OF THE ANGER I HAD AT SOME POINTS!!! lmao okay, I'm being dramatic, it truly wasn't that bad but like some parts were funny, some parts were serious, some parts were just plain out...annoying. It started with a "playboy" male lead that in reality was just a spoiled and annoying brat but he truly was a nice guy. The female lead? She was adorable, innocent but also kind of annoying and not to be mean or anything, the perspective I look at it is that she had never been in love or experienced these things so of course it was going to take her through a whirlwind of first love emotions; those are the worst. The two had chemistry, they actually really clicked, they start out awkward and grow into each other but like EVERY OTHER THAI DRAMA ALONG THIS PLOT LINE; THEY HAVE PEOPLE RUINING THE DAY. Literally, per usual, always gotta ruin it for the rest of us. lol. There was way too much going on; all I really wanted was to see the main couple and so I truly just watched it for them.The only people that don't suck out of the whole show is the best friend (who was too sweet for her own kind, like man up) and the parents (even though it took 29 episodes for them to buck up for their daughter???) EVERYONE ELSE SUCKED! The chemistry between the leads are amazing. Lol. But they were annoying and naive. They let people overcome them and that was just annoying. Annoying girls, exes, the mom, ugh, please. We didn't need the negativity in our lives, I'm not even lying.
I was so annoyed and focused getting through the show that idk how the music was lol
Wouldn't rewatch it, shouldn't have even watched it. Lmao.
Overall though, it truly wasn't a bad show because of the leads. They were sweet and cute and I enjoyed the relationship they had; I felt bad for the drama they had to endure and I kid you not, with the drama between all the people; I practically was begging for someone to get stabbed or shot because I wanted a different kind of drama than verbal. WHICH SOUNDS HORRIBLE!!! But I was just like PLEAAASSEEEE; GIVE ME A DIFFERENT STORY, SOMEONE DIE OR SOMETHING, MAKE IT ACTUALLY DRAMATIC!!!!!! Anyway, I binged the show to get it off my watch list and I'm glad I did. Lol.

The lead couple has great chemistry!
A solid Thai light and fluffy standard trope drama, however there a few serious moments and intense scenes. The lead couple has great chemistry and well worth watching even though the story could have been told in fewer episodes. The overall cast acting is a little inconsistent but as an ensemble cast they manage to pull it off., The production and direction is fairly low budget, which suggests this drama was made to fill a certain time slot. However, the finished product turns out well and is very underrated. The low ratings make me wonder if people really just hate ethnic Thai actors or prefer Thai nationals whose ethnicity is half European or more if so, that is very sad and self-hating.Was this review helpful to you?

ABSOLUTE WASTE OF TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If you look up the word 'frustrating' in the dictionary, I bet you'd see this drama's name beside it.I've watched my share of Asian dramas, especially lakhorns, with their unrealistic plots, and idiotic, naive female leads, but this one takes the cake.
This drama started out really well actually, it had the makings of being a great drama. Playboy male lead who has been heart broken and now sees women as playthings that he changes at the drop of a hat... naive female lead who hates the male lead but will eventually fall in love with him eventually... your classical love octagon... hateful mother-in-law... you know, the basics.
But when it reached about episode 12/13, it went down like a sinking ship, never to be resurfaced. I know this is fiction, but the some of the plot hole are so huge, I wonder which writer in their right mind wrote this.
Let's talk about Da. She's so in love with this Patee duche that he does no wrong in her eyes. He quite LITERALLY told her, on several occasions, that he doesn't love her and sees no value to her existence, has embarrassed her repeatedly, but she hangs onto to his shirt strings like a god forsaken puppy, grasping at it's last breath of life.
And then there's P'Non. For christ's sake... if your current GF feels insecure with ur friendship with ur ex... stay far away from her. That's common sense. He's so easy to manipulate. Both him and Paeng.
P'Sa came back and added a new twist to the drama. It has now become longer, more confusing and drawn out. She's a deceptive BITCH who ends up doing the same thing(Admittedly, a better job) that P'Non's mother and her little squad of vindictive followers were doing from before. P'Sa has P'Non and Paeng wrapped around not just her little finger, but all ten, Thumbs and all.
Other than the fact that Pol and Kaewta, Prae and Rakchat and of course the leads ended up together, this drama was a total flop. As for that evil, psycopathic dueche Patee, he should have reaped what he deserved. His change was too sudden. He was a heinous menace for all of 28 episodes and then BOOM, he's a changed person. After all the bullsh*t he put Da through, he should have suffered more. The drama should have shown where Paeng's mother-in-law recognized her good qualities gradually as time progresses, instead of just having a miraculous revealing in the last 20 minutes of the last episode. We didn't even get to see Non and Paeng having a good and peaceful relationship without all the pranks and sabotage before the drama ended.
Would I re-watch this drama... absolutely NOT!!!! It's a miracle I made it to the end (even if I skipped most episodes from 12 onward).
We didn't even get a good kiss... not even a good and proper hug. I was really disappointed with this series.

In lakorn, when we have a girl we can like and a guy we can like and we like them together, and we DO know they'll end up together, the 1 thing creators need to do is to make them end up together in some kind of way that is exciting. Or entertaining to watch. But if the reality is lakorn producers have many things to do, like fill the time slots and sell the commercials and create jobs for all the supporting cast and crew, the 1 simple thing often gets left behind.
In this lakorn, typically there's 6 extra people we don't care about in 1 scene. There's still good tension in between the main two but for something to happen, the pra'ek must drag the nang'ek out of the room. Then we can count on the fingers how long it's gonna take for at least one of those 6 people to come and interrupt YET AGAIN. Looks like they REALLY needed to employ numerous cast here... So, when this lakorns at least TRIES to dedicate some time to the character's gradual discovering of their feelings, it's commendable.
Else it really is ridiculous for them not being able to talk the basic things through, while all the time living in 1 room. Again, we're talking about dragging obstacling instead of real script writing. Another thing is the first kiss comes after 16 episodes of waiting... and it's fake. Thank you very much.
But now the pra'ek confessed his love. She has not confessed yet, but she doesn't have somebody else, and she does live in same room with him:) Now we finally have some scenes with them together, talking to each other straight. Which is good. That should be from the beginning. But now he confessed already and there's still half of the episodes ahead of us.
It's filled withs stupid jealous-games, more and more screentime for all the side-cast, the main girl finally shows reciprocation to the pra'ek but it gets drowned in all the couple's antagonist's antics and I honestly didn't find any of the side-people watchable, they're like c-grade actors just showing off their untanned skin and freaky colored-contacts (we are in Thailand, so everyone on TV tries to look as light-skinned and light-color-eyed as in/humanly possible:) I admit I found this watch really loong and if its only purpose was being a filler in-between the tv commercials, then for the rest they could just show the commercials uninterrupted and it couldn't be much worse than this. I think I've watched long enough, so before finishing 21th episode I am dropping this, simply as of ZERO interest in seeing any more.
