At the beginning, I was dissapointed that Jacqueline Muench was once again in a side-role. I am long-term convinced the spotlight should belong to Jackie, there's something captivating about her besides good looks, which cannot be always said about the other actress she is to play the second fiddle to. In lakorns like 'Rak Kan Panlawan' I didn't mind it as she was running her own cute side-romance. Cases like this, 'Game of Outlaws', 'Rabam Mek'... she has to be some nightclub side-girl or the main girl's antagonist. She's better than that!
First scene of this lakorn, we have the typical henhouse with two female doctors competing who's to be better at patient's diagnosis (it's more important to win, than the life of a patient, of course), who's to date local cute male doctor and who's more popular on the internet. I think, enough said. I didn't like either of the female characters. This mercifully gets interrupted by one of them going away solo.
Second episode is filled with crazy comedy, but even that gets long. There are "funny brutality" scenes... Then because Taew's character was drunk one episode, they let her be drugged the next. LOL at Prin Suparat's cameo, though:) Episode 5, I contemplated what's there to stick with this series for. Perhaps just the cute Ter Chantavit, or Prima & Sorawit couple. I found episode runtime double than it should be, though. Episode 6, there is a boxing match... DURING which there were too long sequences I wanted to skip(!!) Enough said. The annoying show only was saved by the super cute Ter Chantavit.
I kept watching for Ter Chantavit... Also couple of the village side-characters, who were funny. Overall, it's a crazy-comedy series. While it was annoying at first, later I admitted it was the right tone for this. It would not be bearable, had it taken itself seriously. Episode 9, it really goes crazy-crazy. Every scene is a parody of something, characters speak straight to the camera, one more actor from '2018 Kom Faek' makes appearance, there is a hilarious "videoclip" sequence... Among all this fun, boredom is gone but no romance really works as great ridicule is made of it, too.
Episode 10 eases off the crazy comedy a little - though there's still lot of it - and romance gets the bits of vacated space here and there. Jackie's character gets more substance than just an someone else's antagonist, like she deserves.
One episode Ter Chantavit's chief pretends he's gone crazy in very fun way, it was a pitty that was not longer. Then the romance lines go on... The "brutality humour" gets repeated... I must say by the time it was all over I was kinda tired of all the crazy comedy/parodic elements. Kinda pointless to review this as "drama", it really was wacky mishmash of this and that, but at least it had 13 episodes and not 30 and it wasn't overall that boring.
