Beautiful Story about Past & Present Life
The main theme is past & present life/reincarnation and with the tag "minimal romance" I can understand why there aren't much romantic scenes here. But overall I can say it's 1 of the dramas with the best storylines in 2020.Like:
- The whole story is beautiful. It can explain the past life very clearly & well-connected to the present life.
- Chemistry. NOT a lovey dovey drama, but the chemistry is actually satisfying, at least to me. In the beginning, Anik seems hate & is annoyed by Wiwan, the way he looks at Wiwan is just cold. He's mesmerized by the charm of Sodaya instead. Wiwan has no choice but trying so hard to restrain her feeling towards him. I feel hurt as her. But later when Anik is 'unconsciously' worried & jealous of Wiwan, OMG it's really cute!! & when the past life is gradually revealed along with moments in present life, his stares become warm & softened to her, just like when he fell in love with her in the past life.
- I'm glad there's explanation about the relationship between both leads which actually have different status of human.
- Namwhan & Namfon portray the characters very well. Both are charming, elegant, & mysterious, but in a different way. Somehow Sodaya has a stronger charm compared to Wiwan, sometimes Wiwan shows her inferiority. I wonder it maybe related to their past life as Sodaya used to be a queen, while Wiwan was just a slave wife. Another thing, with brown-colored lips (say NO to bright-red lips for antagonist LOL) & simple-yet-sexy outfits, Sodaya looks stunning.
- Watching this is refreshing since most of the casts are new for me.
Dislike:
- Like other said, the effect/CGI/whatever isn’t that good. Sometimes just looks fake.
- I can’t get it why Tri chases Wiwan since he loves Da from the start.
Could’ve been better if…
- About Tri & Da’s love story, I wish in the end Tri confessed to Da that all this time he used the jewel to make him confident, brave, etc., but now he’s willing to change himself with his own effort.
- When Anik asks Wiwan about how she saved him from Sodaya's spell in past life, Wiwan doesn’t answer clearly bcoz she’s shy. It’s a cute scene. I wish in the end Anik would repay what she ever did to him in past life. Unfortunately it just happened in my imagination LOL.
