The plot is no french to regular Thai lakorn lovers and watchers

A rich girl Pin portrayed by (Now) and a poor boy's Nop portrayed by (Kem) paths crossed coincidentally, they fall in love. The girl has no other siblings but the boy has a brother called Dan portrayed by (Blew), who is studying to be a doctor, although we barely see him studying or going to university.

The brother is just an ungrateful brat, who wants to have everything but willing to share.

One day after a huge fight at home Nop learns that the parents that he thought his parents are actually his uncle and aunt.

His aunt took him from hospital soon after his mother gave birth to him, and his father was shot killed by his business partner.

He starts looking for him, in the mean time Pin's step mother had lost an infant son on a traffic accident and still don't believe that he's death and Pin is trying to help her to find her son.

Pin was saved by Nop from the gangsters, traffic accident and a couple of more small accidents and her dad decided to hire him as a body guard.

By the time he was working with her he had already figured out who Pin's father is and started to plan his revenge..

He hurt himself he hurt the woman he loved, he hurt his adopted family in the name of revenge

To take revenge he worked with the gangster when he swore he won't be one of them.

He left the woman he loves on the wedding day, that was something unforgivable

Thank god that revenge was not long lasting

But we on the last episode we had kidnappings

But comparing to other lakorns with similar plot like Hua Jai Sia, I much prefer this one.

There's no rape involved, there's a lot of skin ship, real true kisses, it was like these two can't take off their hands off from each other.

I liked the chemistry between the couple, although I think Kem still needs to improve his acting a bit.

Overall I enjoyed watching.

I watched this on YT on one of the Chinese Movie Channels, I was first skeptical about this.
The movie is the story of two maids who entered to palace as a child. Chen & Liu quickly became friends and they promise each other to be there for each other. Chen has a different personality comparing to Liu, While Liu is more kind, soft hearted, helpful, Chen is the opposite.

The story is about the relationship of two friends with the 13th Prince

Chen betrays her friend for power, she didn't want to stay in the palace forever and be a maid.

On her way to power Chen not only took her friend Liu's identity she also had an affair with the 4th Prince thinking she could be one of his favourite ladies. While being married to 13th prince this affair continued.

When the 13th Prince was going through hardship it was Liu who was there for him.

it's a happy ending but I didn't like the rushed ending.

It was a pleasant watch, I didn't fast forward or skipped any scene, at the end it was not bad.

I suppose this movie inspired Scarlett Heart and the other palace movies...

This was one of the inflight movies offered by the airline, I first picked a Korean movie, but got bored and switched to this one thinking that this will be a better option but no worse.

For one second I thought they have done spin off version of Itazura Kiss, because the main girl reminded me of Kokoto, she was as annoying as Kokoto.

A school girl falls in love with a guy and the next day she learns that he's her teacher.

She keeps chasing her teacher etc etc..

She was like a puppy chasing the teacher, she has a friend who's also in love with her but she doesn't notice this, she thinks him as a good friend. ( I actually find him more handsome than the teacher in the movie)

Through the end teacher's ex gf comes to school as a teacher, she wants him back etc etc.

But it's a happy ending so, got no right to complain

For some reason I just can't get used to Jap movies / dramas, either my choices were wrong or something else, I love Japanese people, my best friend is Japanese but I just don't enjoy Jap TV as much as I enjoy watching K, CN, TW & Thai Tv.

I hope one day I'll find a nice Jap drama and start enjoying.

How and where do I start, I have postponed watching this drama for many years.

This drama fits into adult category, no there are no adult PG scenes, but what this drama is about fits into adult category, it's not something singles should watch, they might completely lost their trust in men, marriage.

What you see in this drama happens in real life, that's what happens in business circles. Behind closed doors, while we admire what we seen in magazines, thinking they are such a lovely couple, perfect. But there's a drama behind those closed doors. Tbh that doesn't only happen in high society, these days both wo/men can be adulterous. It depends on how much you worth for? for how much you are willing to be an adulterer.. what's your price? how much can buy you?

What I didn't like is that this drama was based on cheat.

No I don't think that this drama was trying to show adultery as acceptable but it's quite an eye opener.

I first thought Seok Hoon & Hong Joon is such a cute & loveable couple and it changed when the SEO third wheel came along to scene.

And 1 million dollar was enough to buy Seok Hoon.. Yes they had a history Seok Hoon applied to work on her company she had a crush on him from those days but she decided not to employ him, but she has never forgotten..

Hong Joon I do have to disagree with others that she's an evil bitch just pretending to be an angel..

She's no angel but she's not devil either.

Yes when her husband asked for reconciliation, forgiveness, she refused, but by that time she already knew her husband's heart was no longer with her.

Yes she wanted revenge, you'd want to hurt the people who hurt you as well, it's not something you can easily swallow and let it go..

Min Woo he's another womaniser, he cheated on his wife, he had a secret son in Hong Kong, and he continued to cheat on his wife all along?

Was Se Jin a victim? (Min Woo's wife) Never, she cheated on her husband as well.

Min Woo got divorced from Se Jin got married with H.J but he cheated on her as well.

It's a pity because they had a good chemistry

While married to HJ Min Woo cheated on her with his ex wife & pregnant her, but she already had a weak uterus and she had a miscarriage

Min Woo was such a sly on business, he played dirty games..

At the end CEO Se Young & Seok Hoon got together..

MIn Woo & HJ future is unknown...

That got on my nerves CEO Se Young should have died during her surgery & HJ ordained to be Monk, that's how their story should have end.

I totally shipped Min Woo & HJ.. They were a great couple. although their marriage was not built on love.. It was a marriage for benefits for both parties.

I only feel sorry for the little boy, and that's it...

This drama wrecked my favourite song One Summer Night.. God knows when will I be able to listen w/o remembering this drama..

There's no rewatch value

Prepare for a long nerve wrecking journey

Right Kratai (Sakao Duen ) is a 16 year old girl, when she arrived to Thailand with her dad, on their way to visit some family members there was a surprise waiting them, that's Sakao Duen's grand dad & his right hand, such a coincidence Songklot is a doctor returning back home to see his sick mother also in the same train and in the same compartment.. While she was trying to run from her grand dad, she hides in the bathroom, cuts her hair with the knife, Songlot had shaved, she finds his jacket, wore it and starts to run. Kratai taken from her dad, so that her dad could marry the daughter of an ambassador, she's been brought to grand dad's house and her cousins and aunties behaved terrible to her, but later on being send to other aunt's house. That's how the story begins.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

CONTAINS SPOILERS

Songklot played an important role in Sakao Duen's life but he eventually fell in love with her, but also trying to court her aunt.

Kratai was a proper tomboy who grew up without her mother only with dad.

How about the cousins and aunties who are desperate, jealous of Sakao Duen / Kratai, every single episode if one doesn't cause a problem the other one does.

Wanting the guys who doesn't want them, and even after they have been told they love someone (sakao duen / Kratai ) else, they continued to chase the guys

On the other hand Aunt has got a couple of guys who are trying to court her. I couldn't figure out whether the auntie really loved Songlot or she thought he's the best of all. I admit one was a loser , some needs to be desperate even thinking to be with him. She had another guy a business man who was trying to court her, and I thought he was more matching to aunt comparing to Songlot.. Auntie Lek is a grown up woman from Songklot's behaviours, the way he looks at Kratai / Sakao Duen, the way he gets worried about her, the way he can't stop thinking & talking about her, should have set the alarm bells on. If not when he was so worried about Kratai / Sakao Duen when they want to send her to Private School or when there was a fire in the farm all should have set the alarm bells for the aunt. But it didn't, she had all the hopes..

Kratai / Sakao Duen & Songlot took long time to understand or admit they love each other. Songlot asked about love to his brother & sister in law, they described it to him, and he only those symptoms with Kratai / Sakao Duen..

Prince understood way before Kratai / Sakao Duen had been send to private school for 3 years. Later on after she's back while Songlot and Prince talking he warned him that he can't court both aunt and niece, and he doesn't want him as a son in law because he's indecisive.

When Kratai / Sakao Duen was in hospital unconscious the way Songlot looks at her, the way he wants to touch, kiss but can't, it hurts a bit.

But he also pushes her away from him.

It's nerve wrecking, Kratai & Songlot has enough screen time but not even a proper kiss, they stare, touch, all sort of childish games but no action.

If I was Kratai, I don't think I'd have ever forgiven a man like Songlot..


It's not bad, but it's not superb either.

I don't think it has a rewatch value

Oh Forgot to add nearly all the leading ladies are younger than New, even the auntie.

Also nobody had changed physically except Kratai during the 3 years she's been away from home in school.

Even the little kids are still at the same height... They aged grand dad a bit.

I know most people don't like Bomb's acting, I've seen worse so it's OK for me.

I love both Bomb & Mansu. I can't say I am a great fan but I like both guys.

If you are looking for an easy, romantic comedy to kill your weekend, this is the right one.

Bomb done a great job portraying the gay brother, Khun Mark, He's fun, cheeky, caring. I am sure that Bomb is a bit cheeky, who loves to joke & tease.

Characters are well developed, everything goes smoothly,.Cin's story is a bit like Cinderella, step ma & step sister & half brother.

Lessons to learn from the lakorn life is short, don't worry be happy, life is not long enough to worry about empty things.

Enjoy your limited days in this world, spend time with your loved ones, you'll never know who'll go first.

One of the pluses is there's no annoying second female lead here. . There are annoying female leads but their harm is to themselves not to Cin.

I love the relationship between the coworkers of Mark Entertainment, how they got used to Cin and in time accepted her.

It's quite funny especially the parts Mark taking over CIn's body, drinking, eating meat (Cin is a vegetarian & doesn't drink) dancing with guys in gay club, trying to seduce Mate(his brother) for Cin when he takes over Cin's body, poor CIn not remembering what Mark has done while he was using her body.

Fasten your seatbelts and prepare for a long nerve wrecking journey.

We generally have a selfish, nars male lead but here it's quite the opposite. On screen chemistry between Bie & Esther is always great but this time Esther playing a girl who is so down to earth and a woman who doesn't believe in destiny.

Just had a chance to watch this movie in flight, I was browsing the movies in World Cinema , I came across with this one, when I saw Ha Neul's name I decided settle in with this movie.


It was the right choice, movie starts with a family moving to a new home.
Ha Neul is a boy who is studying for university entrance, least that's what we are being shown, but things aren't what seems to be...

First I thought it's a horror movie, but no it's a pretty good thriller.

It gives you the taste of a horror movie.

People are very biased about Ha Neul but I like him as an actor, I did like his performance on this one, as well as previous movies, including Scarlet Heart.

It's filled with plot twists, just when you think oo I got it, it's like this, damn in the next scene you see that you are wrong,

I don't want to spoil anything for giving some information because if I tell something I might ruin the entire movie, you get the know the truth just at the very end of the movie.

As I said previously things are not what it looks like.. Not everyone is who they claim to be :)

The film begins with Jin Seok's nightmare and the movie swallows you like a hurricane/ tornado, you don't want to move from your seat.

After the nightmare his brother got kidnapped and he was missing for about 20 days and when he gets back he starts to behave different.

The close relationship in between them is gone and they are now distant to each other,

There are lots of secret codes, such as the brother tells him not to enter a room, and Jin Seok
keeps hearing sounds / noises from that room and he gets curious obviously.

You don't know what's the reality or what's the fantasy (his dreams. subconscious)

Things are going very fast in the movie, so I suggest you to keep your remote control on hand while watching.

Screen writer is always ahead of you in this movie, it's hard to guess the ending.


I have to admit that the character Kang Ha Neul portraying is not an easy one but he portrays is beautifully..

If I have to give a spoiler I'll give two

Jin Seok goes to police station and they asked his birthdate, and the police tells him that so you are 40 years old, he says no he's only 20 years old, when they asked him the year he says 1997 and everyone starts to laugh and they show him the calendar on the wall, it's 2007 so he's missing 20 years and he doesn't remmeber anything about it..

I have to admit that not only Ha Neul did a great job also Kim Mu Yeol was quite realistic portraying the brother.

When Seok's brother gone missing mother (Na Young Hee) & father (
Moon Sung Geun) were extremely cold and I couldn't understand why at the time.. You'll understand it at the end :) everything you see will be resolved at the end of the movie.

It's not a romance so no happy ending for all..

Happy watching

I haven't cried this much lately while I was watching a lakorn. Ton the male lead is such a loving, caring guy that It makes me wonder why men are not like this in real life :)

It's one of the rare lakorns that you'll love all the characters in it. From Squirrel boy to the white witch

No fighting, no jealousy, no crazy ex.

The special effects not the worse but watchable .

There's a lot of comedy in it, The father who's cheating, the heir son who wants to be a singer, the other residents of the apartment, security guy and his daughter, his daughter keeps using korean and calls him Appa all the time lol

Only hint I can give you is everyone ends up being a couple, getting married and giving birth :)

The eding killed me....

You need patience to watch this lakorn..

We do have a really evil lead...

Nothing really on the romance terms, yes we do have two handsome boys trying to protect the main girl and also fighting for her.. But there was not a lot of slot slot for Romance..

One lead steals the identity of the rich girl who grew up in the same orphanage.

She murdered 3 people... tried to kill her friend, the mother, her boyfriend, the other two male leads and nothing gets resolved until the final episode...

So I say don't waste your time..

One of the most evil witches of Thai lakorns is in this lakorn..

But the actress playing the bad girl did a better job than the good girl :) her acting was flawless

Rather than seeing 15 mints of romance I'd much prefer to see least an episode of the happy ending :)

Oh before I forget to say we do have an amnesia card in this lakorn..

I've started & dropped this movie a couple of times, and after reading The Handmaiden becomes first Korean movie to receive Bafta nomination , in January I have finally completed ?. I got to say although I like the movie, I also find it very disturbing, this movie can be classified as +18, there were 5 mints + unscencored lesbian sex scenes. I am amazed how the main & supporting actors can speak Japanese fluently. It was a brilliant movie but it was also quite dark

The male lead was acting like a barrier in between two ladies, he was brilliant at portraying a conman who acts like a noble, the ending was quite surprising..

One of the rare down to earth lakorns.  

I honestly admired RIn,  she was very patience, caring, loving, and her skills, she cooks, cleans, she plants, make perfumes. I don't think that I have got half of her skills as a wife.   She protected her calmness when her husband's ex-gf suddenly came to destroy her wedding.  She endured her even after getting married.

I loved the advice the mother give to her daughters. " Do you think marriage is like fairy tales that you read in book"  & about a heart can change.  

Saran's ma advices to her son...     " Love is like pen & paper " " Spoon & Fork"  you can love / marry  someone out of your circle ( matching-suitor- someone richer - poorer- different culture-beliefs-religion etc ) but this may not always work.  (this type of relationships)

Saran & Ri they slowly fall in love,  Although I'm against arranged marriages, but arranged marriages still exists and not all ends up like Saran & Ri's.

When you fall in love slowly, you learn to respect, but when you marry someone you already know / in love, after a while you lose that spark,  

This lakorn is set in 1950's and you can that vibe from the music, outfit, cars & surroundings. I really really enjoyed the OST,  it was pleasant almost very relaxing.

Also we have Villains called White Tiger,  who uses black magic, now this is not everyone's cup of tea for me it's the power of the words. Believing into something  too much and making  it real.

She has two younger sisters, One gets married after her but her marriage crumbles down in a short time. Saran's friend is wooing Rin's little sister, she's the only clever one after Rin.  

Sisters  don't get much screen time.  I totally recommend it. It's not your usual lakorn

No matter what I love the connection between three sisters,  we only see the two of them arguing it's Rin & the middle sister, that's because  Saran refused to help her husband on his illegal rice exporting business,  (that reminded me something very  similar happened in my family when my mother was still a child funny enough in the 1950's like in this lakorn.   All three of them were protective of each other, none of the other sisters made Ri felt like she's adopted,  but she always slept with the maid, until Saran's friend starts to investigate.  Her story sort of reminded me of Cinderella, how she was doing all the housework while her step  sisters are   socializing.
She hopes that her husband will be back and take her so they can continue to live together but the end all she got is a failure from her husband.

Ri's story towards the end may surprise you

I love how both mothers were good towards Rin, except the bitchy ex & stupid White Tiger everything is all ok.

If you find the ex gf annoying like me, just wait through the end she's gonna get a nice slap by Rin's sister.  

What I love about Korean, Chinese - Thai Dramas they use karma ..  being quite spiritual myself I believe in karma.

Watch it if you're fan of Tik, even being his fan doesn't stop you go insane, Have never seen any other lakorn other than this one with bad cast.
I don't think there's any chemistry between Tik and the other lady.

Nat's ex fiance's wife keeps accusing her running after her husband while it's vice versa,  The main guy's married ex gf doesn't go anywhere but always hangs around the main couple , his lawyer's delusional wife & daughter trying to break the couple with the help of the ex fiance and the other delusional wife of the boyfriend.


God help the ones who wants to the watch this lakorn
