Nothing is resolved

This story starts with a challenge, to make a believable love line between a man (Nai) and his younger sister-in-law (Pa) after the suspicious death of the wife (Da). And this lakorn chose to meet that challenge by... not really addressing it? We saw all kinds of strange and what seemed like uncharacteristic behavior from Da in the flashbacks to the day she died and we really got no explanation for any of it. [Why was she considering adding something to Lita's drink? What caused her to faint in the pantry? Did she really push Lita and cause Lita's injury?] All of that just got buried amid the one-upping between Pa and Nai's mother, and even there, there were hardly any truly satisfying moments where you felt Pa had gotten some revenge.

Then while more and more people began to see what Nai's mother was willing to do to 'protect' her kids, Pa somehow became more and more sympathetic? The idea that all of these people would put their differences aside after what happened is too hard to swallow, especially with such little repentance on the mother's end.

Thom and Lita were fine as a side couple, but I never really felt anything about Nade and Trai together.

All in all, not worth the time.

Creation of relationships was absolutely nonexistent

I had such high hopes for this drama even after I read the synopsis. I thought it would be a ‘fl’s sister dies and she comes back a year or two later revenge’ type of thing, but no. The get married after what feels like a week after the sister died. I won’t lie, the only good thing this drama had, was a good cast, but even then it still flopped.

Okay so we got fl sister who is married to ml. She dies and fl is mad so she goes ml and tells home to marry her because he doesn’t believe his mother killed his wife. I understand the intention on fl’s part, but the main thing was why wouldn’t ml believe fl even when he knew his mother’s manipulation streak. Set that aside, did he even love his wife? For someone who claimed to love her, he was the only one at her funeral who seemed to not be grieving over her death. He went home, asked his mom about the accusations, and slept without even shedding a tear or showing any signs that he even cared about her death. He had moved on from her death hours after her funeral.

Now his actions send us into the marriage part. Which kind of dumbass would really do this? And like ml’s mother even ask the question, “his wife just died and he married her sister ?” I’m sorry what? I was absolutely disgusted from this whole situation and to make matters worse, ml started flirting with fl which was completely inappropriate considering the fact that not much time had passed since sister’s death and they were both supposed to be in the grieving process….that is if ml ever loved his wife in the first place.

Next, drama’s shouldn’t put babies on screen if the can’t understand how to operate them. How the hell is baby supposedly attached to his father when his father was basically nonexistent for most of his life and when daddy dearest dies decide to come back, all he does is hold the baby, kisses it, doubles it and gives it to the next person. Not one scene is shown of this man actually spending his time with his son apart from just kissing him, like I get they are trying to show that he loves his kid but like, there are so many other actions that are needed in order to identify as a good father and one his baby is fond of. What happens to playing with the kid? Oh he kisses it, it starts crying, he give it the care taker. Lmao I don’t even understand how he had a relationship with his kid to the point where people went “ oh I think he misses his dad”. How can he when all dad does is kiss him once and then hand over the next person, how is there any space for an intimate father/son relationship.

I won’t get really into the unrealistic forgiveness plots, or the unresolved problems, or the fact that now fl and ml’s mother are suddenly besties. What I will tell you is that get ready for a very long ride full of nonsensical nonsense. For every episode I watched, I thought it’d get better in the next. In other words, if you do plan on watching, think of this drama as joke….maybe your brain won’t bleed as much from the stupidity induced brain damage you can suffer from while watching this seriously ?

This is not a romantic series, it’s definitely revenge

Series wasn’t horrible but it was absolutely predictable.

What I liked about the series was the FL ability to fight back and her boldness. That being said, there was nothing else I really enjoyed about it.
I am so over these aggressive mother-in-law‘s and the oblivious partners. This mother-in-law was beyond extreme. After the FL sister passes away she decides to take her place under the guise of raising her nephew but she’s really there to discover what happened and seek revenge. While I enjoyed her comebacks I just feel like The behaviors were extreme and the punishment and they have a really matches the crime. Two throw in the romance twist of course we have the devoted sister who was really there for revenge develop feelings for the very person who was oblivious to her sibling suffering and they all lived happily ever after.

A whole lot of nothing

Let's do this by category

Story: It started off with a premise. There were a lot of mysteries to unfold and each character looked like they had a story that would later play an important part in the plot. Well, that was all a lie. The story ended in a whole lot of nothing. Let's start with the main characters. Pawinee marries her brother-in-law after her sister dies. This should have been a huge moral dilemma for her, but it was barely mentioned by anyone but her father. I understand at first it was for revenge, but what about later, she didn't even think about it. Also, her trauma from the accident was cleared up so easily when it was the biggest card the mother-in-law had against her. Also, the things she did for revenge didn't even really feel like revenge at all, they were more like pranks. Then there was Nai. He was literally just there like an accessory to Pawinee. He also didn't even have a second thought about falling in love with his sister-in-law so soon after his wife's death. Honestly, Nychaa and Pon were wasted on this cause I know they have chemistry with Plerng Prang Tian. I didn't hate the side stories with Net/Trai and Tom/Lita, but they needed less screen time. Finally, the mother-in-law was forgiven way too quickly. There were also so many questions left unanswered like what actually happened with Srrikanda.

Cast: I didn't have any particular problems with the casting choices. Nychaa has definitely improved her acting since she started. I know Pon is not a bad actor, but his character was so bland and weak. I think that's just how the character was written. I actually liked the mother-in-law's acting. The actress portrayed her well. The side characters did fine too.

Music: don't remember, so I guess I didn't have a problem with it.

Rewatch: No thanks, I'll rewatch their other dramas.
