Rabam Mek (2020)

Tbh i went into the show expecting a lot of angst between the main couple but there wasn't really much of that.

Story: probably the strongest point of the show, side plots were just as important to the story as the main plot so you cant really skip that without missing some stuff. I liked how unpredictable it was, i couldn't really guess who was good or bad until the later episodes. There were some unpredictable plot twists and unnecessary deaths (not really a spoiler considering how many characters there are). Overall plot was better than average. Also liked how some characters you might like/hate in the beginning you might change your mind after, there was some character development.

Acting/ cast: Considering the ML is still a newbie, he did a pretty good job, plus he was eye candy XD. Wasn't a huge fan of the FL, she was kind of naive and a crybaby, but still a lot better than being a doormat amirite. I really liked the relationship b/w Mek and King, they really felt like father and son more that his actual father. Surprisingly, I found that second couple (Lek's brother and Rose) had really good chemistry, I liked watching their parts. Overall most character weren't black and white, most not all.

Music: pretty average music, nothing too special about it. Don't have much to say lol

Rewatch value: as i said before, the plot is pretty important in this one so not as easy to rewatch if you know whats going to happen already.

Overall: overall I give it an 8, not just based on the points above but also my personal feelings :)

P.S. this is one of my first reviews plz don't bash me for it if you dont like it, simply write your own :)

I'm a huge fan of Thai lakorns, don't know why, but I just am. They're all so cheesy and the slap and kiss and predicable and full of angst but for once in my life, I was actually thrown for a loop.

The story is what it is, the FL and ML are dating and in love, the chemistry is fantastic and really sweet. You then find out he's been doing secret projects because he's a rachasee and he's trying to take down the bad and conquer with the good but the bad thing is he gets caught. The other plot twist in it all is even though it was supposed to be all work and no play but he ends up really falling in love with the girl and she actually falls in love with him. So in between all the BS and finding out who is a bad guy and who is a good guy, they're trying to fight with everyone but fight for each other. The FL is livid because she just wants to love who she loves and I get that and the ML is such a good guy that you get frustrated that he's so good because you're like FIGHT FOR YA GIRL BOI. But there's so many plot twist and the show goes in so many directions that you really are just on your toes and binge watching t because you're like WELL WHAT'S YOUR INTENTION AND ARE YOU ACTUALLY A GOOD PERSON??? Lmao.

The acting wasn't half bad. They put a lot of really good people in this show to be fitting, the bad guys were so good at what they did that you didn't even know their intention. The good guys were so good that you were crying along. Thuc is a fairly new actor so he was kind of stiff but it was good because he played a little sweet and basically tough naive character, it was an odd but fitting mixture. Preeya cried for about 27 episodes of the show so the whole show so I'd say her acting has really stepped up. I've personally never seen any of them in any shows so I'm being biased but honestly, THEY WERE SO CUTE, EVEN WHEN THEY WERE FIGHTING AND STILL CONNECTING AND VIBING, MY HEART WAS SWOONING. I also kinda liked the sister. Lol. I really just kinda liked a majority of everyone for the roles that they were.

Music was spot on, loved it, I even downloaded it. Lol.

I'm debating on rewatching it right now and that's how much I actually liked it. I literally finished it at like 2 in the morning but here I am, at least going back to watch the ML and FL because the chemistry was so good and I rarely rewatch any dramas.

So other than that, I say, watch it now. For sure. It was not a waste or anything IMO though.
