Saan Sanaeha (2022)

Lakorn rated as "feminist" but mostly just a lakorn!!

PLOT: Lin, the FL, is mistreated by her husband (chosen by her father, a macho and authoritarian patriarch). With the help of her brother Kasom, and the ML, Muen, who guides her towards an accounting job in his company, she escaped this hell. After her divorce, Muen courts her (with great difficulty because FL is reluctant after her failure). Furthermore, Muen's ex makes a comeback. Kasom falls in love with Kaew, the ML's cousin. But the patriarch doesn't accept it, finds "his" ideal daughter-in-law, and does everything to marry her off to Kasom. Kasom dies in an accident, and the patriarch became paraplegic.

+++ The actors are convincing (except for the FL, who is pretty but always has a poker face).
+++ The story is fairly coherent.
+++ I really like the second romance (more than the main one because the FL annoys me).

### THE FLAWS OF LAKORNS: way too much melodrama!
- The abusive and contemptuous patriarch towards women
- The stubborn ex-husband & the obsessive ML ex
- The "ideal" fiancée willing to sell herself

### The FL who is in love, but doesn't want to get married, and maybe she does, and then ultimately doesn't
ლ(ಠ益ಠლ ლ(ಠ益ಠლ ) When it's supposed to be in favor of Women's Rights, you have to write consistent and intelligent heroines, not fickle ones ლ(ಠ益ಠლ

=> Interesting lakorn because of its actors, but so melodramatic!!

Lakorn noté comme "féministe" mais surtt lakorn !!

PLOT : Lin, la FL, est maltraitée par son mari (choisi par son père, patriarche macho & autoritaire). Avec l'aide de son frère Kasom, et du ML, Muen, qui l'oriente vers 1 emploi de comptable ds sa Cie, elle échappe à cet enfer. Après son divorce, Muen la courtise (avec bcp de difficultés car FL réticente après son échec). De +, l'ex de Muen fait son come-back. Kasom tombe amoureux de Kaew, cousine du ML. Mais le patriarche ne l'accepte pas, trouve "sa" belle-fille idéale et fait tt pr la caser avec Kasom. Celui-ci meurt ds 1 accident et le patriarche est paraplégique.
+++ Les acteurs sont convaincants (sauf la FL jolie, mais tjs poker-face)
+++ La story est à peu près cohérente.
+++ J'aime bcp la romance 2 (plus que la romance principale car la FL m'énerve).

### LES DEFAUTS DES LAKORNS: bcp bcp (trop) de mélo !
- le patriarche abusif et méprisant envers les femmes
- L'ex-mari obstiné & l'ex du ML obsessionnelle
- la fiancée "idéale" prête à se vendre

### La FL qui est amoureuse, mais ne veut pas se marier, et peut-être que si, et puis finalement non ლ(ಠ益ಠლ ლ(ಠ益ಠლ
Qd c'est censé être en faveur du Droit des Femmes, il faut écrire des héroïnes cohérentes et intelligentes, pas des girouettes ლ(ಠ益ಠლ

=> Lakorn intéressant par ses acteurs, mais tellement mélo !!

Positive Message & Sweet Kisses

One of the few Thai Lakorns that i have watched that has a positive message and tries to steer the conversation towards a building better relationships and families. Women were not treated as plot devices and beautiful props that slap each other or are brainless, fighting over a rich guy. This drama explores the issue of abuse & suffocating traditional expectations placed on women.
-I loved that despite what the FL goes through she is portrayed as a strong woman who tries to rebuild her life and regain her independence from her suffocating traditional family( mostly her father) who sees all the females in the family as chess pieces to be played by him the way he likes and her abusive ex & his mum who are not that bright.
-She had a mature second chance relationship with a guy, they give her a realistic romantic relationship, complete with her fears after what she had been through.
-The most boring thing about the drama is that the dialogue can sometimes feel like its a talk show rather than a drama and its a public service announcement.
-There is also a bit of a sadness in the drama, but i will not spoil it here.
Overall gave it an 8/10 for giving a positive message, which is rare in lakorns.
