Finally! There is not Ken Phongpanu. There is not Alek Teeradetch. There is Ken Theeradeth!:)) No matter that he's 40 (to cast Noom Santisuk though, who is 14 years older, as his dad, is a bit an insult, LOL) I still prefer him over any of the other "Cupids"... As for the two main characters: this is NOT the beginning of their story, actually. That was inserted in between the previous 7. Episode 1 of this, the guy already wants to confess. I gotta say that what we watched in those time-limited portions here and there during the stories of someone else, was brilliant. The exact moment we get to watch this couple as the mains though, the brilliant writers no longer know what to do. Therefore, the man is suddenly unable to finish 1 sentence. There's everything they were able to think of to prevent him: first, a cell phone rings (a classic), then something happens to disrupt the conversation altogether, and when there's no longer anything else, Tor Thanapob's bratty "blogger" swings by & steals the guys's line on a day 1. I admit that him saying that he's got no problem with the age gap was funny, especially after Tor's previous role on Club Friday, but it was aggravating, too. These two were working SO well together. They were the rare ones who did NOT need a third wheel.

Sadly, now that we finally have all the time for our main couple, it's clear the writers did not trust on it and decided to ax it with all the usual possible fillers & road-blocks. When they were pressed by the limited space within the stories 1-7, they were forced to be creative. Now, no longer. And so the story to which I kept looking forward as the best watch to come, showed me disappointment right in the first episode. Even when we start at the top, so to speak, with two already developed characters, who no longer have any stupid "Misunderstanding" and/or Love-triangle going and the female is already close with the guy for it to be believable (though she keeps calling him "boss", despite them being far from office, or english-speaking country) and the male DOES know what he wants, we're suddenly sent back to square one. Where the guy gives up on his confession and throws flowers intended for the girl into trash. Ugh. This is not a high-school drama. This was supposed to be different.

So, this is the first letdown, and then Sara Legge & Louis Scott step in, to add even more triangle-ing. They both are tiring to watch. It becomes rather rare to have the two mains alone for one second. Episode 4 the "boss" announces to Waralee and also to everyone else that he is pursuing Waralee. But, we have to deal with the third (or fourth, or whatever) party, first. LOADS of screentime is dedicated to THEM. Instead of watching the funny ways he would pursue her, finally. Both the main leads use their ex in a stupid "high-school way" to make each other "jealous", while in reality they give a kind of second chance to the people who deserve NONE. Not a single minute of their time. Not only that was a thing I didn't approve of, also it meant secondary characters got too entangled into main story, which is a failure itself.

This might seem like a short series as it's 9 episodes only, but the single episode runtime is KILLING the viewer, LOL. After the unlucky beginning, episodes 5-6 are full of antics involving the side-characters, the relationship of the mains only suffers for it. By episode 7-8, it's hateful to see how the things have "progressed"... We then spend another huge chunk of screentime deditacted to a "detective plot" about bad guys trying to destroy the dating company, which is yet another idiocy (and not romantic, either). Yes, this really got lost and strayed far from Romance, just as the other Cupid series (sadly) did. The one I rated the highest so far got 5.5 stars from me, and I did hope this one to BE better. Instead, it felt like dropping the show. It looked like UFO landing was more likely to happen than the two romantic leads to start dating. After everything, I could understand why Waralee was with another guy. It's somehow typical of thai production: while you open any imdb movie page and you'll find the cast is listed according the amount of screentime they had, in thai lakorn the audience gets exhausted from all the side-cr*p and bewildered where did the original mood and couple's chemistry go to.

I didn't care much for the final, half of which was dedicated to the side characters still, half of it to final union (she keeps calling him "boss" even if speaking a thai sentence, including her love confession), which was perhaps supposed to be romantic, perhaps funny, who knows.

Apart from the failed 8th romance, we should at least see the conclusion of all the 8 Cupid stories here. Yet we don't get to see all the 8 cupid girls together, again.

Note: Waralee's house looks really pirotesque.

Btw.: Pitty it did not occure to them to pair Ken Theeradeth & Cris Horwang️. Neither the generic beauty Chompoo Araya, nor the vampire-stylized Sara Legge (super white makeup & super red lips) does match his kind of sexy.
