Okay so 1st I want to mention, I love this couple. Another coupling done right. I'm on episode 5 and i thought…
I 100 percent agree with everything! I actually put off college work to binge watch. I’m back to watching Lakorns again. ☺️ And I thought there was chemistry between the main pair too!
I enjoyed the drama. It was wholesome and just what I needed. It gives me hope. And, whew! I really need it in these tough times.
But what I found most endearing was the ensemble cast. Everyone played their parts well, and the ending made me smile. That last scene, aww.
The people who frustrated me the most exuded a different aura at that point. Hirun and Fah really won me over as characters. Lah and Akat were so sweet. I enjoyed how both couples rooted for each other. I also liked Yang or “Dad”, and I liked the comical prisoner friend and the grandma’s friend too.
But there are two things I must note:
Some might find this drama a little too moralistic. But I think that’s the appeal. I was okay with it.
Second, if Tor and Plengkwan act together again, I think they’d do a great job in a romance drama that has the contract marriage/arranged marriage trope. I dunno why I think so. But their chemistry would really fit it.
Third, I don’t think the last episode was rushed. I’m just glad they were able to tie it up nicely at the end. Although, I don’t think an episode or two wouldn’t have hurt. Maybe it’s simply because I already miss the characters.
Fourth, I’m sorry. I have to mention it. But those bald caps (haircut caps) were so cringe (the only ones who looked convincing were Bright and Phuak . The costume/hair consultant did Tor dirty in one episode. You could see a bit of the crease/wrinkle of the bald cap behind his ear. I don’t understand why wigs aren’t top priority in shows and movies. I see this so much in biopics.
I like how they introduced this overweight female lawyer to be more progressive and made her the most useless…
I know what you mean! 😭 But after coming to that confusion…urgh, ugh, I mean conclusion myself. Annoyed and disappointed…
I realized from personal experience that that’s what to expect. She actually kinda reminded me of a lawyer my mom once had. But lawyer’s kinda just tell you something like “that won’t work. That’s hearsay” or “Technically…” or “You still won’t be able to do anything…” or “Blah blah blah”. Lawyer’s can really just help you to an extent. You have to pay them hourly but it seems like they’re doing nothing. They just want to charge you a thousand dollars an hour… Especially when the “odds aren’t in your favor”. The system can truly work against you. So…I found it satisfying what Santi did. The lawyer was realistic.
I really didn’t like this movie. The set up was nice, and the two leads had chemistry. But there was a lot of selfishness, and the lead girl was too arrogant and complicated. The second ML was a user. The only likable characters was the ML and 2FL. The ending was open ended. 3.5 for me. Would’ve rated lower, but it wasn’t all bad.
This was a really goofy movie. All actors did a great job. There is a love triangle. And I detest them. But this one was okay. I liked Fame because he reminded me of an old middle school crush ☺️ But Pong I truly rooted for. He deserved a happy ending and I like how he believed in May and drew her. May was a likable female protagonist.
I genuinely like Tor. Very good actor. He gives off a genuine and wholesome vibe in all his roles. Kinda seems like the big brother type. Saw him first in that eye contacts commercial/short film called “Sanctuary” that he did with Bank and James along with GOT7’s BamBam (including Jinyoung and Mark too). 💚 I also saw him in a music video with Ploychompoo (Jannine Weigel). He caught my eye. In May Who? He reminded me of a crush I had on this one guy in middle school. (He still does).
Yet, if there’s one thing I must note about him, when he conveys anger you can really feel it. Like, smashing windows and punching walls anger and frustration.
I know others may not agree. But when seeing her in dramas I can’t help but think she looks like Yubin from the Wonder Girls, or at least looks a little like her.
Very lovely actress. One could draw her in a cartoon. Her eyes are so doll like. Her make up really makes her look like a doll, especially with the eyelashes and blush. Very cute.
I think Mark is really handsome. And it makes me laugh a bit when others note he shares a bit of resemblance with The Healer’s Ji Chang Wook.
Anyway, what I mean to say is, I’ve seen him in a couple of dramas, and I wonder, do all of his characters have a chip on their shoulder? I suppose I mean it in the sense of holding grudges? His characters are always holding grudges towards the female lead. Of course it’s always with reason(?). But, I dunno, I just need to watch more of the dramas he’s in…
To be honest, I find all the characters really interesting, and the main couple is sweet, including all the other side couples. I really think Taiwan is the best at manga adaptations.
I feel as though there’s always that one actress who’s really popular (or WAS at one point) and you choose to not like her because of it.
But then there’s times when you choose to actually like them because they just seem likable. Rainie’s characters are always relatable, quirky, and mouthing-off type in an understated way. Even when I saw her in Sisters Who Makes Waves S2, I didn’t recognize her at first, but I was glad to see her. She even supported a favorite actress of mine who was on the show.
Anywho, my sister was a big fan of Rainie before I was. But I think Rainie is an overall cool and genuine individual. And she does have a nice catalogue of songs. Her story before she made it big is relatable and inspiring too.
(And I wish there was more attention on Taiwanese dramas these days. I never can come across one, let alone one subbed. And it’s so disheartening cuz I‘ve been listening to CPOP with Taiwan based artists, and I’ve wanted to pick up on watching Taiwanese dramas again 😭)
Good memories! Devil Beside You is such a classic, most people who like Taiwanese dramas will have watched that.…
Currently watching DBY, and it’s so cute and sweet. People say it aged bad and had toxic characters but it’s a story one watches to feel young and dumb again. I like to stay a little naïve.

Almost done.
