Actually this storyline could be found in any ebook that u like but me personally have yet found these kind of story being filmed and it’s actually very exhilarating.. love it and their chemistry is absolutely awesome not particular reality style but more dramatic type of story but overall wrapped really well into the series luv luv 😊😊... and i still hope to see these cast to play again in some other series with different story and also with new aura that could surprise all the audiences love them soooo much and these kind of story is quite rare that i found this very intriguing and curious. And their interaction behind the scenes also looks warm and cozy !!! 🤍🖤🤍🖤🤍🖤Was this review helpful to you?
This review may contain spoilers
As a novel reader, I am pretty satisfied with this adaptation!
⚠️ I am about to spoil the whole series so, if you haven’t watched it yet please do scroll to another review ⚠️First thing first, I would like to thank everyone that’s involved in this series including all actors, producers, directors, and all teams behind the scenes!! It’s been a great months of me enjoying the series. My eyes are blessed with their COLOR GRADING!!! They’re very confident with it and YES they better be because that is one of the most outstanding traits of this show. But somehow, it’s truly a new type of show I guess, we are having this ‘daily life’ storyline where the leads are a bar owners who are kinda ‘unique’ to the point that they named the bar as “ChermChey”. Met during their heartbroken trip and end up being the lovers of their life 🥰
This big plot is pretty clear and neat. Now, we gotta move on to how’d that simple and clean plot turns into a 10 EP of a series?
1. The bar owner supposedly was Eung only (along with his ex), but as he got to know Intha, they decided to be a business partner whereas Intha invest and manage things financially (well, cleaning the bar after the closing is mandatory 😁😁 your man instruct you, you can’t refuse) while Eung manages the operation of the bar as in paying attention to everything regarding the business. - This plot went pretty quick, as they didn’t really show us much about the renovation and stuff… they mostly show us them buying groceries for restocking -
2. Intha move in to the bar actually needs a longer explanation (for someone who has trust issues… the pace for this part is too fast… 😁😁 but it’s nothing impossible) but this is the second details that supposedly need some attention
3. The relationship development of InthaEung for sure 🥰🥰🥰 them living their lives, rebuilding their bar that I’d call it as their love nest, problem solving, hyping their relationship and keeping it as strong as it can (I surely love this plot as they introduce me to their relationship dynamic. I’d say I have seen A LOT of ‘hyper and extra’ couple in novels but turning it into a live action show is another story and I think ChermChey did it pretty well tho -I personally haven’t really watched another series that bluntly show how ‘extra’ they are, mostly implicitly or letting audience’s imagination do the magic)
4. Well Bomb and Athen as the side couple was briefly presented in the series [yet if I didn’t read the novel I’d have no idea about the relationship of Eung, Nok, Bomb, and Athen]
Those four point alone was enough to make a 10 EP series… I do have some notes regarding several scenes tho:
- Athen ordering his boys to ruin Eung’s bar (we didn’t get the dialogue for this so… -just a mere phone call scene without a full convo- we just can guess)
- The inexistence background of Intha giving that bottle opener necklace to Eung makes it seems ‘ceremonial’… or to put it bluntly ‘out of nowhere’,,, if I didn’t read the novel I wouldn’t know the context -that’s for sure
- The flashback scene during Intha’s silence (I can feel the emotions in his expression but it didn’t match the montage)… I believe it would’ve been more ‘organized’ if there’s a fighting scene of Eung with the dudes that tries to ruin their store… (I understand that in terms of production this scene would’ve take a lot of time and money but, I believe this scene is necessary tho) - but as In said in the diary, he’s worried of Eung’s wellbeing… and I believe that ‘fight’ scene scene is definitely necessary!
- I wonder why didn’t we have a single hospital scene?? Bomb was hit by that wrench soo I believe he needs some stitches and changing Eung’s plot after the fire into a drunkard doesn’t really help cuz they still use the scene where Intha was reminding Eung to drink his medicine -where’d this come from?- (I believe either they rearrange the novel or there’s an issue during the filming process)
- I saw a comment asking why there’s a mermaid scene in this series (out of nowhere) I’d say it’s fair as they didn’t show us the context when Eung said that he dreamt about going to a beach for trip along with Intha (additional context… he get to wore a mermaid suit there, so Intha bought one for him and surprise him during their stay at In’s house)
- Hmm,,, that scene in the last ep about odd days and even days… they’re actually talking about taking turn washing dishes and cleaning up… we didn’t have that context in the series so it might be confusing
- And don’t even talk about that pink duvet… god know what made it need an immediate laundry… 🤭🤭
I love their acting, chemistry and all…but those plot needs a bit revision I believe^^
I’m not the type that’s obsessed in NC so I actually find it having a ‘proper amount’…
P.S. I seriously wanna know the interior of this bar as I really can’t picture the structure based on all the shots taken… Is there anyone that can illustrate it?
And I really can’t tell the difference between daytime and nighttime in some scenes…
These plot holes could be a good marketing way to buy the novel 😁😁😁

This is recommended
I can’t really say much but i really love that this is kinda mixture of harry potter and divergent series also the fact that the romance between the actor isn’t like the one u usually see as in it’s quite rare that the main lead isn’t end up with the first dude that appear and worshipped by everyone on the 1st episode... i really like the storyline and how they make it flow just at enough moment. Really i need a lot of this kind of series i personally like when the genre is not pure romance but also action or fantasy or science fiction where it’ll be way more thrilling and Fascinating to watch. You wouldn’t be bored by this kind of genre with a little bit comedy in it would be extremely perfect. The character in this series also fit perfectly with the cast. Much love 🖤🤍🖤🤍🖤🤍Was this review helpful to you?
