cute chemistry
Anytime I am watching a Thai drama, i seem to have a high tolerance and special patience for it but even this was frustrating to watch but the chemistry between the couple made me endure it and made it worth the watch.Things I like
1)Since I have been watching asian dramas, this drama is one of the dramas that had so many kisses ,in almost every 2 episodes which gave me something to look forward to and it had real kisses which were lovely to watch
2)Pan was such a strong female character and I liked how she always tried to stand up for her self and did not let the male character degrade her
3)I loved the plot of the drama,it was really interesting to watch and I like the pace of the drama
4)I like how the reason for misunderstanding were known quickly and they did not drag issues for too long
5)I liked how the secondary couples got their own good ending.
6)The cast were very good looking and they acted their roles well.
7)Anon, i loved the second male lead, he was such a stand up guy, funny enough I didn't get second male lead syndrome with him, cause I didn't want him to end up with the girl but he was such a perfect definition of loving someone so much you want to see them happy even if its not with you.I could even find any fault in anything he did,i hope I meet a guy like him even as a friend.
8)I realize a major theme in this drama was forgiveness, honestly the female lead is good on that front,lool it couldn't be me or could it, i don't know but if she is happy ,good for her.
Things/People I didn't like
1)I had a love-hate relationship with papol, mostly hate towards the later episodes, because I understand his dad did not not show him love and he hated his stepmom for being with the dad,i don't even blame him for seeing it that way or being angry because his mother lied to him as a child but that didn't even make his actions justifiable and I hate that he took it out on an innocent girl he claimed to love and did despicable things to her.If he loved her like he claimed he should have treated her better cause she literally tried her best to love him despite his actions towards her and not allowed his mother to get away with everything.
2)I HATED his mother,i feel like that quick death was to good for her but I am just glad they didn't try that bullshit forgiveness line with her.
3)I didn't like how pan's family kept pushing her to reconcile with him with the stupid perfect family line ,i was so annoyed on her behalf, all her anger was justified and I feel like the male lead should have particularly apologized for his mother's actions, like she almost caused her miscarriage only for him to tell his mother never mind, like really?
4)I feel like he didn't deserve pan at all ,he didn't properly atone and she forgive him too quickly but oh well at least their son is happy I guess and will have both his parents.
5)hmm Pan's sister was just something else, i still haven't forgiven her for not telling people pan was kidnapped, what if the worse happened, her redeeming quality is that she valued herself and will not settle for a love that is not returned, i liked that about her.
6)Pan's biological mother's actions were distasteful ,i don't even blame Mae jan(I didn't like her character either) for being angry, it was imply disloyal behavior but I am glad they worked things out.
I gave this drama 7.5 because of the male lead but I am being a bit petty,Despite these I love a good slap- kiss and these drama did the genre justice .I think you should watch these drama because it is interesting, acting is great and the MANY kisses ,honestly I liked how realistic they were on that front.I don't like rewatching dramas but I don't mind watching some clips because their chemistry was lovely to watch.

Progressively disappointing ML character development, what a let down
I watched till Ep 10-11 when I realised why this show didn't score higher than 7.5. Felt like giving the ML a few good tight slaps up and down, made me so mad. Even Kitkong's dimples couldn't save the ML character.I almost dropped the show at the SECOND LAST EPISODE because of what the ML character did. I had thought I only had 2 major triggers for ML characters - infidelity and beating up the FL but gosh, I discovered a third trigger, which is what this ML did in Ep 15. I had a friend who was potentially facing the same situation (in her case, her husband cheated for real) and I could feel her anxiety regarding her child.
Forcing myself to finish to show. Omg this ML pissed me off me big time, what a jerk. After 35 lakorns with a lot of slap kiss dramas, this ML character is on my list of the top 3 most disappointing ones.
To be fair there are probably only a couple of actors (Ken Theeradej, Pong Nawat, Mik thongraya) who can carry off this ML character without me wanting to punch his lights out.

Great chemistry between the leads
Let's start with the honest truth....Boom's dimples and his super chemistry with the FL in "0nce upon a time..."led me to Prom Pissawat 😆. If nothing else, I can die happy that Chen Ming gets the girl finally!My thoughts on the lakorn?
- chemistry between the leads is 🔥🔥.
-both Boom and Pimmy did great with the roles the were given.
- Pol wasn't the most likeable guy...in real life, a girl would be an idiot to choose him over the most wonderful supportive Non or even Tam. However, I get why Pan falls for him. It is very obvious that he falls for the FL very early on, however, he is conflicted between his attraction and prejudices.
- Throughout the series I liked Pan, though there were moments where I was frustrated at her decisions I never grew to dislike her. Though her decision to continue denying that Pol was the father was carrying it too far, I actually don't condemn her for misleading Pol about the miscarriage...she was extremely hurt not only over his shabby treatment of her but her belief that he was trying to win her back only for the sake of the unborn child. She also knew that Pol and perhaps even her family and friends would have pressured her to play happy families for the sake of the child. However, I don't support her continuing to hide the child for many years and the actions she took and the lies she told later in her attempt to separate child from father
- there are some who feel that Pol wasn't punished enough however I disagree. He experienced some of what he did to Pan even before the miscarriage. Of course that isn't enough to satisfy my vengeful heart 😁. However, he lost his parents ( though his mother dying was good riddance!) wife and child in one swoop... additionally, the guilt that he "caused" the death of his father, his child and the end to his marriage would have been a heavy burden to bear. He also was without his friends and no money to "cushion" his fall, though these he choose to do without. Pan though brokenhearted had her family, friends and child during the 6 years of separation.
What could have been better?
- I feel that Pol didn't realize the extent of his mother's wickedness, till the end he was blindly devoted to her. While I don't want him hating her, would have been nice to see some more of the truths about his horrible mom brought to light especially her attempts to have Pan kidnapped/ raped/ murdered!
- Pol kidnapping Tawan and taking him away to another country???!!!....tsk tsk....nope! Yes, Pan was being unreasonably stubborn in denying he was the father but taking away a 5 year old away from his mom (whom you should have learnt to treat better if you truly loved her) when you are basically a stranger is just unacceptable. Buuuuttttt....this is a lakorn so I choose to overlook the legal/moral/ ethical implications of his as well as her actions.
-I really really disliked Nit, she never really repented her actions. No matter what is used to justify her actions ( Pol used her to get back at this wife, etc etc)....I cannot forget and forgive her and Pol's mother smirking when Pan was bleeding and about to miscarry. I don't know why the writers thought to pair her up with Tam! Poor guy...he deserved better.
-the editing in some scenes could have been better...eg, the first time they kissed ( not counting the forced ones)...they don't show us what happens after 🤷♀️.
Overall- Pol's cute smile and dimples ( Yes! I am shallow!!!) and his chemistry with Pan, their acting was enough for me to love the show.

Never Look Down on Anybody unless you're helping her up.
Usually When I watched only the First Episode I make it on hold but this one is not I dropped it and never thought of giving it one more chance.Sorry but it was a BIG NO for me.I have watch many Cinderella Story and there's so many better than this one.Almost all of the Characters have hatred in their hearts and all of them have bad personality only the FL left but she's very weak. I don't like anyone from the Characters.
The one of the reason why I dropped it so fast because of the Music. It makes the drama very boring. I feel like I heard the same Music more than 5 times in just One Episode.
It was so hard for me to finish the Episode 1 so how will I continue watching it. I know that every Drama is like this after the First Episode but I don't want to pity the FL because of fucking misunderstandings.
