Daydream Land
This lakorn is probably a guilty pleasure for most Thai Lakorn watchers with its typical good girl-bad boy, out of luck poor girl; player guy story line, and while my 13 year old self who watched it and genuinely liked it at that time, my now almost 20 year old self cannot say the same thing. Looking back, the lakorn was actually quite horrendous to say the least lmao. I apologize for my harsh vocabulary. But seriously, this drama is basically a Wattpad fanfiction with a Marysue OC and a bad boy main guy slapped into live action. I'm not even kidding, go see for yourself. It is one of those dramas that you cannot take seriously but you can't stop watching it. I hate myself for the fact that I enjoyed it too. It's quite entertaining and the things happening keeps you in circle, but not in a good way.
My biggest criticism though, goes out to our leading lady. We're supposed to feel bad for the main girl aka Rasa, but like man, I hated her so much throughout the whole drama. You can be nice to people, you don't want to be rude, but don't be stupid and let everyone step all over you. She was so goddamn weak and a huge pushover! This girl has no common sense I swear. Homegirl couldn't stand up for herself even if her life depended on it (which it did at some point). I mean I guess I felt a little bad at first but then when she just kept taking everyone's shit over and over again without defending herself, I was just done with it. Her character was just so unrealistic, over exaggerated, and the perfect epitome of what a Mary Sue is. Like she would breathe and every guy in the drama gets a boner (tbh Poo Praiya is gorgeous tho but still, it was too much). Every guy liked her. Not just every guy, but almost everyone besides the villains were at her feet ready to serve their queen. And the mean girls only hated her because they were jealous of how everyone preferred her to them, how she's close to p'ek. And all the bad guys wanted to rape her because she was hot. That's it. They either hate her because she's better than them or because they can't get her. Very one-dimensional character.
Main guy Akrin is an asshole that got off too light, do I need to say more?
What I did like though, was their chemistry. Even though this drama was all bad Thai drama cliches in one, their scenes together were pretty hot ngl, so I'll up the points for that. And I liked the opening song.
