Story:
Just a bit of a background, but the reason I started watching this is because of a recommendation I got from my Thai friend. I have never watched any Thai series before so I don't know much about how their shows are or even much about the country's culture so I really don't know what to expect. However, I'm glad that I got that recommendation and that this was the first Thai series that I was able to watch.
This is actually a heavy drama as it has the family story, not to mention that they added even more mystery and intriguing details in the plot. It has shown how people can love so much and how far they can go to protect and fight for the people they love to the point that they can even betray their families that they have so much trust on. With the family values presented, I think there is something we can surely relate on and definitely learn from. It has relayed the message the we are just humans and that we are not perfect, we make mistakes but that doesn't mean that we are entirely bad and that we can't go past these sins we have committed. We just have to own up to our faults, be better people and hopeful as no matter what happens, our family will always be there as our home.
How the story started was quite confusing at first because there were no introductions for the characters considering the big cast but as the details are revealed little by little, every episode becomes more and more intriguing. The flow can sometimes feel dragging too but I think that that is to savor every emotion from each character which made the ending to be really anticipating.

Acting/Cast:
From the senior actors to younger ones, everyone gave a great acting and I think that that is a big part of the overall success of this drama. You can see that they really gave out their best shots as if every scene is real and that they're not acting. They really cry so painfully and without caring if they'll look good because what matters is that they convey their characters' emotions and they successfully did that. I would just like to give extra props however for the people whose acting have really impacted me: Mate, Cris, Phatson, Nipha, Yi, Pete, Toei and Meimei. If I were to choose my favorite characters though, it will be Yi and Pete. It is really interesting to see how both love so much but have contrasting beliefs as one is blinded by it while the other balances that love with being rightful.

Music:
The music added spice to each scene, especially to those with suspense.

Re-watch Value:
I think that I will not actually re-watch this but just because it's too intense and can really feel heavy on my emotions but I think that it's something someone should see at least one so I am definitely recommending it to everyone. Everything was worth it!
