Consistency is the word for this lakorn

First of all, I want to say the high grades for this lakorn is not due to the fact it is the best thing that ever happened in Thai industry. No, I don't even think it is fair to all the other stuff over there and I don't even know all of them.

However, I do think people don't understand lakorn and what you should/shouldn't expect from them. They are not like Korean dramas who try their best to pleasure international audience. As of today, lakorns are more for their people and sometimes other Asian countries. Saying that, one thing I want to bring is the consistency of this lakorn. Because even though we do have some cliches, they are not annoying. The lakorn kept their idea until the end, most of the characters were likeable and the main characters had a very good chemistry. Also, the actors were pretty great in their roles.

The support characters were fun and they didn't took too much of the main characters screentime. So, it was really good.

But, what I like the most about this lakorn was the FL. I had seen other characters like her, but most of them changed a lot in the story to the point of you don't recognize them. In the case of FL, she did change her attitude towards life, however she kept her fierce personality and even in her worst, she was always wise and ready to see the best in people. I love the fact she were always fighting back and nobody could fool her.

Another thing is the P'raek. Really cute guy and he and N'aek were really good couple. Also, it is just me or anyone else fails in love with a guy who can show their fears? I really loved him. I also loved the fact even when he was mad with FL, he was always ready to hear her no matter what. Although I think their break up was a little bit unnecessarily, I liked the fact he was always ready to support her even when they were not together.

The end it felt a little rushed. I also thought N'aek needed a better apologize from the people in the farm. Another thing is the N'aek parents, I thought their relationship could have been more explored. The actors had chemistry. Last scene was a little meh as well. Saying that, I don't think the flaws of that lakorn were bad to the point of not watching it. Overall, this lakorn keeps you interest until the end. And if you like lakorn, it is a safe bet.
