Am I exaggerating? Sure. However, this drama surely exceeded my expectations! What a refreshing drama! Action, Comedy, Crime, Investigation, Amazing female lead... It's a great package! This drama became something I looked forward to every week.
The acting.. Seol Ok and Wan Seung's chemistry was over the top! It'snot even romantic! I love how they argue, their personalities and roles collide, the (flirty) banter! They're my parents and I love them so much no one can stop me. Supporting characters are amazing! They definitely make the drama colorful and flavorful. I love Seol Ok's smart, witty and brave yet clumsy at the same time.
There are cases that were dragged a little too long... Especially in the first episodes, I honestly didn't mind since I was enjoying everything so much. However, there are certain I wished they went more in depth.
I am seriously expecting a season two. I'm not hoping, I am expecting. Divorce must be done(Ok, I'm hoping this)....Overall, a fun drama! It's stress relieving. If you like comedy and crime or a fun drama in general, give this drama a try!

The reason I give this drama 3 points, instead of 1 is - Great cast, great fashion/outfits/design and that's all. No chemistry between the main actors, bad storyline, tasteless music.

We have a rich, spoiled, model, narcissist daughter (Pimlapas) of a rich business man, he marries one of her daughter's model colleague (Mathawee), whom took every single penny of him while getting divorced. When dad lost everything gone bankruptcy, he kills himself, Pimlapas is left with nothing but loads of debts to pay. Ramet fancies Pimlapas since the day he saw her on the runway modelling, one of his competitors approaches Pimlapas offers her money to steal some documents, to be able to make her accept they lie to her that he's holding records of the wife whom he had an affair with, ( which is not true obviously) so Pimlapas goes to his hotel to seduce Ramet to get the documents, while trying to seduce Ramet she falls in love with him. On the day that she's about to steal the documents she's been caught by Ramet, and force to work as a maid in the hotel, at first it was hard for her to get used to the job, she clashed with everyone, she was lazy, she bribed her roommate to do laundry for her .
Being a waitress in the hotel changed her personality, she matured, and became a better person. While she was doing waitressing she was under the close watch of Ramet, as he really wanted her to change..
Their relationship goes through a lot of difficulties, Not to mention her ex step mother was playing every single game you can imagine to make Pim upset, and break her relationship, reputation.
This goes through the end of the drama, unfortunately a woman with Mathawe's character gets away with everything even in real life.
One thing i really liked is how Mathawe's 2 gay helpers backed up and be on Pim's side at the end. They helped her to find a new job, and offered her to work with them .
It's a happy ending but you don't see a single kiss until the very end of the drama.
I am sorry to tell this but I've not seen any chemistry between the two leads.
It's sure that James is a very handsome actor, but these 2 were not a good match, I couldn't get that in love woman feeling from Kim, she's not a bad actress but I just could not ship these 2..

STORY: A sitcom about a family of four who rent to Earth and Ice, who are siblings. The teen son, Jang, realizes that his heart beats hard for both Earth and Ice but he is confused and scared by his feelings for Earth. This show tackles many subjects like homophobia, unwanted teen pregnancy, and other challenges of raising teens in modern Thailand.ABOUT THE STORY: Unfortunately, lies and misunderstandings are the heart of this show and used heavily by the writers. It seems almost every episode is some big misunderstanding that is resolved by the end of it. The comedic timing of this show is somewhat different and I wasn't used to it. They add a laugh track or some strange sound effect at oddly inappropriate times. Perhaps it's just me; this is my first foreign sitcom.
ACTING/CAST: The entire ensemble cast are very good actors. This is a sequel to the long running Bang Rak Soi (2003-2012) so there are guests appearances from the previous show.
MUSIC: I liked the music and at the end of some of the later episodes they do a Thai rap ending that is very comical.
REWATCH VALUE: I'm glad I saw it once but I do not feel the need to revisit anything.
OVERALL: I fell in love with this family, the characters, the cast. It is a very well-written show. If you decide to invest the time into this, you won't be let down.
NOTE: The long-running Will-Jang-Choose-Earth-or-Ice plot line does get muddled. If you want to know more, read the comment section for spoilers about this.

The writers and producers has so much material to work with since according to history, this is where the first royal annals (records of the king) started. Having that as a solid background to a great story in the making, they were able to show how beautiful and frightening it was to live in those days. Days in which freedom was what the common people could only dream of. I give my kudos to the director and the people behind this drama for being able to produce something so outstanding (FYI: Six Flying Dragons won multiple Baeksang Awards, a prestigious award in Korea for the best drama shows). Another side to this drama is the political aspect, it was so intense that watching this without proper subtitle would have been bad for your health if you cannot understand the Korean language. The dialogues could be heart wrenching one minute then an eye opener the next. What made this drama peculiar for me is that usually, sagueks leaves a lot of moral lessons in life and has a clear cut on what is right or wrong, but here… YOU have to be your own judge as to what you deem is right. Everything is grey especially to one of the main characters specifically Yi Bang Won. For him, everything has a means and a justification in order to reach the ultimate goal, a goal that benefits a lot of people by sacrificing a few. You get what I mean? That said, the drama story is long but it’s not tiring to follow because there is always progress in every episode as the characters come to an individual realization, then gets together for a common cause and finally outgrow each other.
What I love about this drama is that it has a lot of powerful characters. There are a total of six main ones, hence the title and they are portrayed by actors that could stand up to their roles. My favorite would be Yi Bang Won which I have already mentioned earlier and was portrayed by my beloved actor Yoo Ah In. He has the most character growth in the 50 episodes that I’ve seen him, as he started as a naïve child, to being an adolescent who wants to change his country and finally as a king. His thought process was also very different from the rest of the characters that’s why I love watching him and see what he would be scheming up next and he is one seriously complicated guy. My second character choice, would be Moo Yool acted by Yoon Kyun Sang, this guy here is seriously pure heart and pure strength. He is the total opposite of Bang Won who is witty and manipulative. It’s no wonder that he and Bang Won complement each other’s character, he’s just too nice and loyal. My third and last favorite character is Bang Ji acted by Byun Yo Han, this guy is a fantastic swordsman and his fighting skills are... I just get speechless every time he gets a fight scene. He has gone through so much hardship that all I wish for him is a tiny-bit of happiness. I like the fact that he is loyal to the person he loves and to the person he decided to follow until end. As for the rest of the other main characters namely: Boon Yi, Sambong and Yi Seong Gye… I feel that they are all on the same level of liking in my rating book. It's just that there wasn't much character progress for any of them since they are utterly stuck to their own principles. Aside that... there are a lot of other sub characters who also gave light to the show but I would leave that for the viewers to judge and pinpoint who they like.
The soundtrack of this drama was awesome and unforgettable. It has been more than a year since I’ve seen the drama and yet the songs still run in my head and I could still sing a few verses. It added dramatic luster to the scenes, the songs that would be played in the background is like a clue as to how intense each scene was going to be. I give two thumbs up for their choice of music.
I will be re-watching this drama in the near future, since I miss the characters and would want to relieve each moments with them but for now I highly recommend this drama for all the saguek lovers out there.

Back to the story line, I can feel the strong love between Fuse and Tee and although Fuse wanted to return to Jean but I can feel he is reluctant to let Tee go, but I can understand this is not fair for Tee but sometime in life especially when coming to love, or starting to love it is always difficult to make decision so I just hope Fuse and Tee can maintain their love for each other, anyway the original theme of this movie is "I believe true love exist".
About Book and Fame they are now having love over their head, and I also hope they can stay faithful to one another.
About the author very good story line, able to express people that are in love, same couple falling in love but expressing and experiencing their love differently, I believe there are many peoples that are also going through the same thing.
lastly, to the director I believe there are many screens in the book that cannot be shown on TV but he is able to make us imagine what is going on, so I think he has done a very good job.
And to all the crews thanks for all the hard work and all the problems that they have encountered and Make It Right!
Cheer!

Commuting to School Series: Commuter Tram

mystery, the whole thing was cliché and the love story could have been
better. In the end, it was hard to understand what happened, why it
happened and how. The story looked interesting at the beginning, as the
whole fantasy-mystical element created suspense and an interesting
mystery to be unfold. However, the story got confusing and the romance
was not strong enough to help things get better. Maybe it was due to
lack of chemistry between the couple, though their performances were
really good. Or maybe the lack of a proper ending aided to make the
love story kind of boring. Again, the whole ghost story was too
complicated and not properly explained which led for this movie to be a
failure. So, 4 out of 10.
