A Binge-worthy Lakorn
Background:
- was in Thailand and breezed through a couple of lakorn in Netflix, this was the only one that I rewatched in detail
Plus:
- handles sensitive topics with such grace and consequently, power as well
- the focus on Grace’s upbringing of Mata - the recognition that it was something ‘unusual’ and being open about processing their set-up and their feelings
- Mata and Mata’s family is just a delight to watch
- James Jirayu’s portrayal of Penneung is a delight to watch, bringing a soft contrast to Mata’s bubbly personality
- their relationship was built on trust in contrast to the surroundings they were thrown in
- there was a point while watching that I just had to pause and applaud Ryu’s emotional scenes
Minus:
- not really a con but sometimes Mata is too understanding that it swings borderline unreal, makes me think if someone like her really does exist
