Gianna gives out a outstanding performance as the carefree painter Hye-young. A young woman who has her heart on her sleeve who waits for her true love that has given her daisies for a long time and even build a bridge for her. Thinking its her new friend Jeong Woo...she has actually no idea who it really was. The character of Jeong Woo played by Lee Sung-jae had sadly no emotional depth that could relate me much to him. Fate made him meet Hye-young,but also took him ruthlessly away from her. professional hitman Park Yi played by Woo-sung has a dark charisma that kept you glued to the screen every time he made a appearance,his loneliness shows from his sad expressions...and his doomed love and passion for Hye-young was what made the true spark in this whole film. Them two together on-screen was magic!

-Thaecho to Muey
I have stopped count over how long i waited for this lakhorn to get subbed.When i finally found the whole lakhorn subbed in Facebook,i directly sat down to watch it..and wow!How i love it!A Maffia Romantic Action Drama i will never forget starring the handsome actor (how he makes my heart flutter) Pae Arak Amornsupasiri as the Arrogant Maffia Leader Thaecho of Chaturupki Clan and the sweet actress Nicha Palwatwichai starring as the heroine (Nangek) Muey.This lakhorn did not only entertain me,but it also got me addicted to it.The powerful presence of the hero Thaecho and his (oh so beautiful) romance with heroine Muey got me stuck in this whole mess.With a intruging plot it all added to the intense angst of this drama that also involves many dynamic and exciting characters.Revenge,loyalty,betrayal,brotherhood,family,honor adds to this whole Maffia world where we watch the most cruel-blooded act of vengeance and hatred turn into tragedies everywhere.This is a must watch,my friends!It will excite and shock you with it`s twists and delicious drama!!!

Reminded me of Goodbye my Princess & Till the End of the Moon.
I finished this drama over night and i am so overcome with emotions it makes my heart hurt .Jin Chen is a ML in the form of a villain. His love for Yao was doomed before it even started because in a world of power hungry politicians and brothers Jin Chen had to become more cunning,vicious and ruthless than them,at the cost of his humanity which he entirely lost the moment Yao decides to leave him.
His words to her:”You are all that i have left ” was said calmly but firmly,indicating for her to understand (and us viewers) how lonely and starved he is of her love. He sometimes reminded me of Tantai Jin,utterly heartbreaking.
Yao is such an admirable heroine stuck in the never ending cycle. Her anguish and grief,her blooming love turned into cool hatred tied to the knowledge (especially at the end) that she would have gladly accepted Jin Chen ’s blinding love if it weren’t for his past involvement. This is indeed the tragedy of Love & Bid Farewell.

What a blasting news it was when "Meteor Garden" got released in 2018 and it took me 2 years to find the right time to finally sit down and watch in on Netflix.I have been so much busy with studying and catching up with my life that i haven`t simply had the time.But watching this new version of "Boys over Flowers" and re-capturing all the moments of struggle,heartbreak,unrequited love,love-triangles and friendship and love between the main-heroine and the legendary F4 members was fun and entertaining and romantic!I never get tired of this story,as i have watched (and loved) the earlier korean,japanese and taiwanese adaptions of "Boys over Flowers".
This is a hate-to-love romance about the star-crossed lovers Daoming Si and Dong Shancai.The romance is high,and so is the drama.If you want high-school drama,love-triangles,irresistible male-leads,kidnapping,bullying,threats of Joker cards,main-leads stranded on a Island,attempted murderer,blackmail, competitions and a male-lead who swears that he will follow his heroine to the end of Mars if he have to...this 2018 version of "Meteor Garden" has it all..so look no further!
I was at first worried if Dylan Wang could pull off the beloved character of the bad boy heir Daoming Si like Jerry Yan,Jun Matsumoto and Lee Min-ho did in their adaptions of the character.But wow how he astounded me with his devilish smile and charm.Dylan did great in expressing his undying love for the first girl who have ever stood up against 4F,his beloved Shancai played by Shen Yue.Shen Yue is a incredible actress who pulled off the character of Shancai with honorable dignity and spirit.The chemistry between the co-stars are super,which really made me stuck with this story from the first episode.Dylan and Shen on-screen are fireworks and i never tired of watching them together!
"If apologies worked,why would we need the police" -Daoming Si (a famous quote this character uses in every version of BOF)
Daoming Si is rich,arrogant and impulsive and the leader of 4F.He is one of the most beloved Anti-heroes in Asianovela with his passionate outbursts in pain and love,his loyalty and devotion to the people he love.He is a guy who destroys everything against him,as he tries to do with Shancai before realizing that he loves this spirited girl early on in the story.His temper and cruel antics is what really hurts Shancai from the start,especially when he out of raging jealousy forcefully kissess her.Her tears makes him realize that he can`t go on that way anymore.In bullying and hurting her...he only made her hate stronger.Her love for his best-friend,the calmest of the F4 Huaze Lei (played by Darren Chen) is heartbreaking for Daoming Si to bear,but he insists on wooing Shancai and tries to win her heart in the only way he can.Its a beautiful journey where we watch Daoming Si redeem himself,with the guidance of his F4 friends and mostly his love for Shancai.He is defenitely my favourite character in this series!(AND in all the other versions of BOF)
"Because you`re the only one I`m willing to trade all the meteors in the sky for" -Daoming Si
Shancai is the perfect match for the mighty Daoming Si,but doesn`t know it until later on.With heR strong will and strength,she fights on toe to toe against Daoming Si and never surrenders.What she doesn`t know is that he will be the one to surrender due to his irrevocable love for her.Her youthful crush for Lei is painful to watch (in every versions) but the actress had good chemistry with Darren Chen and there are many cute scenes with them.And how glad i was when Daoming Si finally succeeded in catching Shancais heart!Shancai and Daoming Si are incredible characters that complements and are perfection together.They speak the same language,touch the same way,walks the same and breathes the same.They are in one bubble no one can destroy,and they are soulmates that are fated to be mated.So many challenges and heartbreak these two had to over-come...but Oh how bittersweet it was!I loved it!What a beautiful couple with a beautiful love-story!!!
I love the 4F gangs in all adoptions of "BOF",and the characters of Daoming Si,Huaze Lei, Yan Ximen and Feng Mei Zuo are all talented,handsome,seductive,irresistible young males that made my heart beat faster!I love Daoming Si`s childish nature..where he is the dark bad boy everyone fears but has a golden heart hidden deep down.Huaze Lei with his musical nature and looks of innocence,he smiled like an angel and i was done for!Yan Ximen with his casanova ways of charm and seduction swooned me with his uprightness and loyalty.Mei Zuo are kind of cheeky and fun with his ironic remarks and usually only dates older women.All these four men are absolutely amazing creatures and i envy Shancai for befriending them and stealing the leaders heart.
"Dong Shancai.I like you...i don`t know why.Even i am surprised by how much i like you.No matter where i go,you`re the only person i see...Shancai,i know that i am annoying.If you want to run away then i will chase after you.If you run to Mars,i will still chase you to Mars." -Daoming Si

This part was colorful and fun and i sensed how strong the chemistry was between Mint and Mark since they also were strong koo-jins during their early lakhorns together until he became koojin with Kimberly in his later lakhorns.But Mint`s acting in this lakhorns was quite painful to watch since she really struggled to act natural in the character of Cha-aim.I also find this part memorable because of Din`s allergy to gay people,i mean he literally fainted everytime a guy flirted with him,LOL!

Old-school Slap-Kiss Romance
”Fire of Desire” is a lakhorn that took my breath away when I first watched it some years ago. I decided to re-watch it when I saw that Dragon’s Lair had finished subbing it and I am so grateful for that!! We have a very good looking Caucasian hero first time ever in a Thai Lakhorn (that I had seen, well except for Bandit in ” Roy Marn”) portraying the American rich heir Kenneth who is the best friend of Uma’s older brother. Kenneth speaks Thai as second language and loves Thai food and the culture immensely and he secretly loved his best friends sister all along-Uma in this case has strong prejudice towards foreign people and lashes out at Ken in every turn. When circumstances forces Uma to marry the one man she desperately despises, her hatred will wither away under Ken’s watchful gaze, speaking of his longing and love- the fire of his desire!!!Was this review helpful to you?
A nicely done cinderella trope that made me lose sleep for three nights!
As the translation to the title of this drama says, "The Necessary Wife" is the central part of this old-school romantic drama starring the very beautiful on-screen couple Petvisetsiri Swiss as the rich but down to earth/honorable Male Hero Tohmorn Taradorn and Namfon Kullanat as the beautiful hard-working orphan Tawan. This lakhorn really delivers in a lot of aspects: we get greedy villains, gossiping servants, identity switch, misunderstandings, slap-kiss, an old vow of engagement and a sweet love-story in mids of all this chaos.I mainly (duhhh) enjoyed this lakhorn for the mainleads and what an electrifying chemistry they actually had in their every scene together. I also loved them in another lakhorn called "Ploy Lom Peth". I actually binge watched this lakhorn in three days and i found every ep exciting and just could not drop this one at all, i just had to finish it. I would also have given this lakhorn higher rating if it weren`t for how much screen time the villains had in this lakhorn. They were simply awful, though Yard`s mother is a terrific actress and i enjoyed her acting. I also wonder what the name of the actor who played Benley is? I don`t see him in the MDL cast of this lakhorn, he did really good in making me hate him.

I feel like i fell into a trap...
This movie is a erotic drama damn it and i rarely watch these kind of movies. I thought the female actress looked beautiful but her character was kinda one dimensional to me, well all characters were one dimensional and not much was shown here. Or even delivered acting wise, and the plot is despicable in my opinion. Infidelity is a trope i hate.It all was so predictable as well. I saw some things come from miles away. I regret watching this.

One of the best J-Dramas i have watched of late...
I literally forgot to review this one since i finished it around last month, but here we are.I have also seen the original version and i am glad to say this version of You`re Beautiful is so well done. I laughed, smiled and cried with all the characters. The actress portraying the female lead did a incredible job in conveying her emotions in wearing her heart on her sleeve and the actor portraying Male Lead Yuta Tamamori did so well with his cold exterior but added that touch of heart to his character that conveyed how deeply lonely and hurt he felt. Ah, he had a heart of gold.
They were so very lovely and beautiful together. Glad i watched this drama!!

Star in My Heart: a classic tale of growth, independence, true love and lasting friendships.
This was a wonderful story overall. Gripping in its essence and filled with artlike direction and music that filled your soul with characters that really made you root for them. Really made me wish for their happiness and for them to find the stars in their hearts. Hope,solace and happiness!Yun hee portrayed by Choi Jin Shil is a lovely heroine! She was was so sweet, nice but stubborn and fierce in her determination. I just fell in love with her designer talents! The actress is so beautiful as well! Her chemistry was amazing with Min hee portrayed by Jae Wook. Ah his handsome charming looks made me swoon! And the way he tackled his life problems and found solace in his music, my heart broke for his soul many times, the way his father caged him in like a prisoner several times. I love that he was supposed to take her number to give to his bestfriend Joon-hee portrayed by In pyo but ended up pursuing her himself!

My journey with "Unwilling Bride"
was...how should i put it? A different one. My rating is sorely based on that i only enjoyed the first six episodes and the writing went downhill with a lot of repetitive behaviour and situations. It grew boring fast so i had to speed forward and 16 episodes after that was a lot for me. But let me compliment at how stunning Mik Thongraya & Pooklook looked together on-screen and how well they portrayed their characters. The ML Kadethaen is really famous for being one of the steadfast, passionate and honest heroes of Lakhornland and i give props to Mik for handling this character with such charm throughout this lakhorn. Nackarin portrayed by Guy Ratchanont was another intriguing character as soon as he got introduced- he was a Anti-hero with a dark background, he made the story interesting with his revenge plot.Was this review helpful to you?
