Krissada repeating the same role 10 years older
Okay, so our pra'ek is now 42, and they made him remake the same old thing with a new girl, who remains 20. Is this sexist or what? LOL. Okay, I get the story is about raising some sort of fosterdaughter... But it's a pitty that if the producers had Nan Krittaporn at their disposal, they didn't think to use her as the lead.
I haven't seen the 2009 version, that never got subtitled. So I won't compare. What WAS probably better about it though, was number of episodes was 15 and not TWENTY EIGHT. It's shorter runtime but still. My patience might run off before reaching the good point.
So far, watching Nonny Nutcha's forehead covered with pimples and Krissada's middle aged face is not doing it for me... Apart from these two, there's a large load of side characters (never a good sign) and none of them interests me. Let's see if with time this develops into enjoyable story... or if I drop it.
Epi 8... Scene of nang'ek & pra'ek playing on the beach. They look totally like lovers, lying there together in the sand.. Gah! Then the camera shows us detail of their faces. It's actually some middle-aged uncle with his... niece? Startled me:) Seriously, I'm kinda having trouble watching this. I watch lakorns because I seek out romance, but this couple makes me cringe. And it's only watching them, or 100 people around that are extra. So many I got them confused. So I did not bother. James Ruangsak is better looking and better acting than Krissada but it's not him who got cast as an overly aged pra'ek... Result being, I skipped all the scenes featuring the side-characters. But then I had to watch the main couple and I wanted to skip that, too... Where do I skip TO, here?? Only option, next lakorn.
