I am on episode 5 and the romance is ok but nothing special and the rest of the story and characters are boring me to death. Should I keep watching?

Btw, the synopsis is not correct. She did not have feelings for the Captain when they met, only him, completely one-sided and the naked man with white pants is also wrong, he is fully dressed (not even sure the pants he was wearing were white), she is the one who is naked. Also, her grandmother supposed suicide was not from poisoning either. I am sure if I keep reading there will be more things that do not correspond to the actual plot.

I liked it until like ep 15 but then got tired of the misunderstandings, of the female lead hurting herself and the male lead by trying to help other people, failing in the process and hurting more people. I mean, its one thing to be kind, its another thing to let people use you, and worse, to hurt the people you love. The ending was nice but overall I was not very pleased with most of the characters. I saw some really dumb decisions made by almost all of the characters.

6.5/10 and its only because of the first part and some scenes from the second part.

It was predictable but was definitely happy and sweet. If you will feel satisfied depends on your expectations and how many dramas you have watched but I think there is a high chance you will like it.

Yeah, I like Push a lot too. But he has this pure but at the same time playboy kind of face. Not complaining, he is a feast for the eyes. XD

Better than most thai dramas, just wished I did not have to wait soooo long for them to finally be together. But with her already being married its good they did not turn their romance into something like an affair.

When I got to episode 11 I thought the previous comments about how crazy it went from there on were exaggerated. I mean, they are finally together, what could go wrong, right? Well, everything.

They used the last 4 episodes, specially the last one, to throw a bunch of clichés at us to the point it was ridiculous. With a promising plot that was nothing new but that had everything to be an interesting story and with good actors, a handsome male lead, even a cute baby, how could you mess it up?!

Has it been fully subbed?

Yes, I have. I think I watched it 1-2 months ago. I also thought the male lead in that one was very nice. I don’t remember the details as I have watched many other dramas since then but I think the male lead was one of the few things I liked about Game Sanaeha. I remember being quite annoyed and fast-forwarding a lot either because I was bored or because the characters on screen were annoying. Btw, James Jirayu's face is perfect to play the nice male lead. His facial features make him look like a kind person even without him doing anything . XD

I liked the first half or so but then felt quite bored and kept fast-forwarding and even skipped the last couple of episodes just to watch the last episode and get it over with. I felt there were a few reasons for this: the focus on the main lead’s was not enough, the romance was very slow paced, the villains kept stealing screen time, the second "couple" was not interesting enough, and maybe there were too many episodes. I mean, I liked it and the ending was satisfying but I felt it had potential to be a lot better.

Yeah, he was definitely one of the best male leads I have seen in a thai drama. Most of them are either playboys, possessive of the female lead, force the female lead into sexual acts, violent or all of those together. It was nice to see for once a male lead that did not only say he loves her but showed it through his actions. He was caring and patient and the most important - he respected her. In real life, relationships where one or both partners are disrespectful to the other do not work. They either break up or stay together but are unhappy.

Considering the female lead is not an adult yet, the age gap and the ethic involved in the male lead’s job, it was very appropriate for this to be a slow paced romance. Usually I have no patience for slow paced romances, but this one needed that. Most of the drama is focused on friendship and their school life rather than the romance between the main leads, although it is there, it is not the focus of the story. Then for the later episodes the romance takes a bigger part of the plot. Another thing that I was pleased with is that even though this aired on Channel 3 and there was an age gap, they did not use camera angles to give us fake kisses. You can see they actually kiss, although this does not happen many times and its only in the last few episodes.

Overall it was a nice drama, different from the usual thai drama in many ways. Not perfect, but it deserves it’s rating since it was better than the average thai drama.

Yeah, I think I will stay away from this one. It has everything needed for a terrible plot with most likely a cheating male lead and a female lead that in the end will forgive him because he "loves" her.

Wow, I was amazed at how bad this was. Never seen such a useless male lead. It is one thing to be filial and I completely support that we should be respectful and obedient to our parents but there is a limit and the limit is when being filial puts at risk one of our basic rights - free will. The male lead was his crazy mother lap dog. He abandoned the woman he says he loves, that is most likely pregnant with his child, to marry a mentally ill woman that does not even know what marriage means, just because his mother told him to do that. And don’t get me wrong, the problem was not the fact she was mentally ill, in fact with so many crazy characters she looked sane in comparison, the problem was that there was no love in this marriage. Had the male lead actually loved her, I would be ok with it. The problem is it was a forced marriage and he already had a "wife" and son on the way.

So I ended up not watching all of it and skipped to the last episode just to see the ending and the only thoughts I have after watching this were: someone, please, get that kid way from the crazy grandmother before he becomes like his father, or worse.

Yeah, its THIS BAD, so if you have something else to watch, go watch it. I doubt it can be any worse than this one.

This is the kind of slap kiss lakorn that make lakorns in general have a bad image compared to dramas from other asian countries. The misunderstanding lasted for so long that by the time it was cleared I was already done with this. Forgiveness is one thing, another thing is to have a relationship with someone who did so many bad things. I know the male lead was not downright bad and was blinded by revenge and can understand his pain considering what happened to his sister, but he did a lot of things that were not only a crime but also showed a lot of disrespect towards other people, mainly the female lead. The "romance" this offers is not a healthy one and in real life people would not say she was in love with the male lead but that she was suffering from stockholm syndrome.

One positive thing, probably the only one I can think of right now, is the character of Ji. In any other lakorn she would have been the crazy stalker girlfriend/ex-girlfriend that would constantly seduce the male lead and attack the female lead. But Ji was different, she was a selfless person that was beside the male lead as a friend, helped him and other people in many ways and never did anything selfish that would hurt other people.

I was pleasantly surprised by this one. Was not expecting to like it so much. It was very realistic and I could connect to the characters and understand their feelings and why they acted in a certain way, even the ones that seemed to be bad. I liked how the male lead had a temper, not because I think he should, no one likes a person who gets angry and violent easily, but because it made his character more realistic and human. He had so many other qualities that had it not been for his temper then he would have just been another one of those "perfect" male leads, which would made his character less interesting. The female lead, at first, was annoying in what she said and the way she acted, but later she revealed to be mature, calm and understanding. Not saying her character was perfect either, but I did not dislike her.

I do want to say that there were 2 characters that I did NOT like at all, both female (what a surprise!). Each one of them made me feel disgusted at their selfishness. They both, in different ways and for different reasons, destroyed the lives of other people. Although both seemed to have something to "excuse" what they did, the one who could be forgiven never showed any sign of regret, probably because there was no time to do it. And the other one, even if she showed signs of regret and we were shown that she will probably become a better person, the consequences of her act could not be undone and in that way she was worse than the other character. But I guess this means they did their job well.

Thanks to the actions of one of those ladies mentioned above, most of the last episode was dramatic and then the rest of it was just to finish the story so it was not very satisfying.

And the last thing that I did not like but was already expecting since this aired on Channel 3, was that there were no real kisses, just the camera angle and the efforts of the actors to make it look like they are actually kissing. At the same time I will take a drama with a good story and no real kisses over a drama with hot kisses and amazing chemistry but with a weak or non-existent plot any time.

Exactly. I decided to give it a try even after reading your comment but you’re right. Although there was a lot of romance, it was very bland, I was not able to enjoy it and was bored most of the time.

Had the first 5 episodes been condensed in 1 episode, the first episode, and this would have been a little more bearable. I liked the male lead but that’s about it. The plot was not interesting enough and I felt bored most of the time.

It was okay, nothing special. A lot of times I felt bored and I could have done without the supernatural/horror element since I felt it was not necessary and would make the story more realistic had it not been there. The ending was just a wrap up of things and was lacking in many ways. Also, because this is a Channel 3 drama you should not expect real kisses, just staged ones with the camera angle being everything.

Wow, I was not sure if I should give this a try or not but looking at the rating, I decided not to waste my time. It is legit the worst rating I have seen here on MDL.

Lol You’re welcome! I have not watched it yet so I don’t know if it’s good but at least I found it subbed so I think it will be worth to give it a try.
