Revenge dramas, even bad ones, are my thing. I really hope this gets picked up by a Thai angel subber. I don't need translations when the action is slapping and hair pulling [spoiler: this describes 197% of lakorns] but revenge is a lot more complicated, plot wise.

"The comments on here" are largely expressing the idea that drug use should not be considered a criminal act, regardless of a country's laws which criminalize it. Questioning, criticizing, and speaking up are just a few of the ways that individuals can change their country's laws (provided their country allows them the freedom to speak their objections.)

Secondly, while many people (and countries) do consider suicide a crime, it is undeniable that an individual owns their own life.

I find your comment unsympathetic and dogmatic.

Sigh. Face blindness again.

Drug laws which criminalize addiction instead of treating addiction like the mental/public health problem it actually is, are barbaric. That we still have laws like these (which appear to be universal, although arguably worse in the East and Middle East) in the 21st century is unbelievable.

does anyone know how many episodes this drama will have? MDL says 28, but Viki says there'll be over 40.

Really entertaining watch. With horrible, horrible people. The male characters are ungoverned, conscienceless, promiscuous jerks you would want neither as a friend, nor a lover. Yet strangely, the female characters do (no single one of whom has enough brains to add 2 + 2 together without coming up with a sum = "pineapple"--and one of the female characters is a medical doctor.)

As is commonly the case in a lakorn, this drama's characters do horrible, horrible things, until the last thirty minutes of the last episode, when these horrible, horrible people receive miraculous character transplants so they're no longer horrible, horrible people (helpfully, the victims of these horrible, horrible people also acquire the amnesia necessary to forgive/forget all the things the horrible, horrible people did to them.)

I couldn't stop watching this, and when I finished it, I felt very glad that no one I know knows I did. It really is that bad.

A huge thank you to Thai subber angel Thippy for her work on this, making it possible to watch it with eng subs. You are completely wonderful.

Well, at least no one died. (Movies about affairs never end well. You know why? It's because the audience wants one or both of the cheaters punished.)

This is beautiful film that hurts like a toothache when it's over.

This looks like it's a potboiler, the kind that lakorns do so well. I really hope it catches the interest of one of the Thai angel subbers.

"all sorts of misunderstandings". So, your standard Cdrama plot, then?

That's true, and a good point. However, start dates or episode counts on MDL are commonly inaccurate until the show is finished. Also, this show's episodes length is only 45 minutes, and a lakorn that has only 12 45:00 episodes is rarer than a polka-dotted unicorn (not counting the short youth/BL dramas that air on lesser networks). Plus which, I've watched 6 episodes already, and the 2nd ML hasn't even showed up yet.

I haven't been right about anything since 1970 though, so I could be wrong.

Seems unlikely that this has only 12 episodes; it's a lakorn, and they don't even get started until episode 8 or 9.

I've seen worse. This is not a great or even good lakorn, but it's decent. Quite entertaining (although the last few episodes do get bogged down in the usual lakorn/redemption/forgiveness crap.)

What a nice article!

That's a Cdrama rom-com for you: first half is ha ha ha, second half is wtf. The reason I know this is because I keep getting my hopes up, that the one I'm watching won't be that way, and then it is. Naturally, I'll be checking this one out, too.

tear-stained + heartbreaking + face blind again = hard pass

Like the flying cars we were promised in the future and didn't happen, this drama also.

I liked this, and it was really so good to be back in that world again--that setting, that cast, those costumes. There are a few episodes of the original story I've watched many times. Even so, as glad as I was to watch it, something was missing from this spin off. Slightly disappointing, I think.

Welp, the film I saw is the film the director wanted to make, but not the one I wanted to watch. I thought it was thematically ridiculous and visually contrived. And the editing gave me a headache. This movie wanted to be much lighter and fun instead of the sometimes pretentious slog it turned out to be. Not a fan.

I liked it better the second time I watched it, but they still have no chemistry together. Do you see how Ann is giving Tik the stink eye and pushing him away in the poster? Believe that.
