Disappointed
I had high hopes for this lakorn. I have always finished lakorn despite being so toxic. But I cannot really finish this one due to unreasonableness of the characters.First, the female lead. At first, she seemed smart and responsible. Whenever other girls are in trouble, she seemed to know what to do best. But when it comes to her own matter, she acts reckless and forget to use her brain. She doesn't know the meaning of precaution when it comes to her own safety. She often scolds the male lead for being unreasonable and irresponsible, but when trouble comes and needs saving, she relies on him.
The actions of the male lead is another big illogical in this series. At first, I thought, he hated the female lead. Then it turned out, he definitely knows his aunt is the murderer of his mother. Okay so he pretends to catch the killer? Yup okay, understandable. But later on it turned out, he doesn't want the female lead to know the truth because he is worried that his aunt might be put in jail . . . Like Seriously? You don't want to send to jail the person behind your own mother's death? The one who attempted to kill your father and the girl you are supposedly in love with?
Oh come on!
Another thing is, the couple seriously lack chemistry. Even the kisses were not even good. I don't know about the others, but I have definitely seen better.
Anyways, you can still watch this if you have nothing else to watch. Up to you:)

Watching build frustration
Wee is a great actress and her facial expression is on point. She really looks crazaaay. But I must be honest the music is out here carrying the whole show. Forgot the spoilers the dramatic music tells you who’s evil and who’s good.Be advice this story is not for the weak hearted and you may suffer from heart explosion because plot frustration and LACK OF COMMUNICATION. Forget words, the secret language in the show is SILENCE and BUILDING MISUNDERSTANDING. The male lead and fl scenes were spicy at first…but damnnn all that man handling just gotta stooop.

Never Again
So I'm a big fan of Joss Wayer's, probably the biggest. I love his face, his bod, his acting.... You get the gist. I wanted to watch this because of him.I started this show and the storyline and great acting reeled me in, but every time Kawin misbehaved with Nabi, I lost it. During the flashbacks, you could see how sweet they both were, but all that grabbing someone against their will is textvook toxicity and it irritated me to my bone. I would've been able to tolerate it if Nabi slapped Kawin everytime he did, but she only writhed and whined. Do much girl power but no girl power at all.
I stopped watching when Kawin started kissing Nabi by force. I had no interest in knowing what happened after that. I was interested in the rest of the movie, but I won't stick around with the main characters pissing me off so much.
This movie doesn't change my opinion of Joss Wayar though. I can seperate fiction from reality and I believed he played the arrogant, rich, obsessive lover boy part impressively. 👍 to Joss. 👎 to Kawin. 👎 to Nabi for putting up with all of that shit. The fact that she let some guy push her around was awfully inconsistent with her no-nonsense 'facade' and a big letdown. This isn't a slight to the actress either, just the character. I couldn't bring myself to finish this. I definitely won't be rewatching.

Un bon lakorn (grâce au CL) si on aime le mélo
Drama qui aurait dû être plus court (16-18 épisodes au lieu de 22) mais les réalisateurs thaï aiment délayer...Le contexte est inhabituel : un bar à hôtesses gigantesque (mais les clients sont presque tous bons-enfants ;) :)
Donc le climat est plutôt gris, avec agresseurs sexuels, gangsters, etc.
L'histoire est "presque" réaliste : la FL manager de la boite, enquête sur la disparition de sa sœur +/- liée à la mort de la mère du ML. Le CL est explosif, avec des moments très cute, mais le personnage principal de la série est la tante, dont la personnalité n'est pas vraiment cohérente.
Remarques :
- A quoi sert la police en Thaïlande ?? Les héros vont toujours se frotter seuls, sans arme, dans de coins louches, à des gangsters.
- les filles qui se font agresser n'essaient même pas de se défendre, elles ne savent que crier ?
- pourquoi dans les dramas, les evil characters sont intelligents, rusés, découvrent facilement de secrets et indices super bien cachés, alors que les gentils (pas toujours très futés) pataugent ?
- la séquence "pardon/empathie" de la FL à la fin, n'est pas du tout crédible. Je sais que c'est un must dans les séries asiatiques, mais ....
Les acteurs sont très bons, ce qui nous tient accrochés jusqu'à la fin.
Parce que la réalisation est too much : longs arrêts sur les regards, scènes inutiles, OST omniprésentes et perturbantes.
