Frustrating adaptation

I was looking forward to the Thai version of Boss and Me, usually they make good remakes. The Chinese version of Boss and Me is one of my favorite Chinese dramas, I've re-watched it 3 times. The Thai version has been so disappointing, they added so much unnecessary plot twists and circumstance between the FL and ML that I found myself fast forwarding through the episodes. They also missed the opportunities of cute interactions between the FL and ML that were so nice to watch in the Chinese version and these moments are what created the true link between the two characters. The Thai version was just lacking chemistry between the two actors and they actors didn't portray the characters as in the Chinese version, the very cute FL and arrogant and cold ML, the portrayal of the FL was just dumb and aloof and the ML came off as a Mediocre CEO and weak. They made the antagonist a psycho, added an extra psycho and jealous employee that plots with the main antagonist and created unnecessary conflict and situations. The writers pretty much added every evil trope and conflicting circumstance to create drama where it was not needed. I didn't finish the drama I may just fast forward through the last 9 episodes just to finish but if you love the Chinese version of Boss and Me , then don't watch the Thai version. It's not worth the aggravation.
