Thai Watch Challenge FAQ, Questions & Discussion

 JustOneMoreEpisode:

Well, I finished  Jao Sao Ban Rai (2006) last night with Por and Namfon.  I gave it a 7 because I love Por.  I admit to having to put it on hold because of the FL's character. I think the director and screenwriter went off track, but Por and Namfon gave them what they wanted.  I wish all of Por's lakorns were English subbed. Watching him is bittersweet and I have so few that I space them out.  

I feel the same way watching his work. I haven't watched this yet. Thanks.

I just finished Keun Ruk Salub Chata, I had originally chosen it because I wanted to give Bua and Krating a chance after Praomook. But the fact that it's in @Brownie's top 2 for 2021 convinced me a bit more.

Bottom line: 

- I don't find the story transcendent but it's easy to watch. There's no unnecessary drama, there's no slap/kiss, I find the story very romantic.
- In my opinion, the supporting characters are not accomplished , the writing is too cartoonish and the villains ultimately lack personality.
- I like the development the screenwriter proposed for the couples.

Do I recommend it? Yes

To me the synopsis sounded good so I put it on my watchlist. I'm not sure if I'll get to it within this year as I'm currently struggling to find a drama that captivates me and fear it's my mood who's just not cooperative but then I'll just watch it for next year's Thai Watch Challenge. ^^ 

Thai is wonderful, but maybe a country change might help, If you haven't seen it - Might I suggest; "Khaani" a Pakistani drama. The original is in Urdu. Based on a true story. It is near perfection.

I would start it cold, but if you need explanation:

Thanks for the recommendation, but I fear the country is not the problem. It's the down I usually experience after I completed a drama that was a 10 for me and then having dramas that just don't reach up to this. ^^

Tens are rare in any country. good luck!

Girl Next Room: Midnight Fantasy 

• I chose this one mainly to see Singto. He is one of my fav Thai actor. 
• The drama isn't original but it easy  to watch and very short. 

It's impossible to me to recall all Thai Drama's I watch before, they're simply countless. 

At this moment I'm watchink HOOK, it's about Muay Thai (Thai Boxing), Love it so far.

Did recent finished a couple of Thai Drama's , some are in my perception really worthless, others are jewels. Those below are great 10/10 (own perception).

Naree Rissaya it's about deep jealousy between sisters

Voice it's about an agent with a superpower  vs a powerful smart murderer.

Love Destiny, it's about  love that trespasses the boudaries of time.  A must to see for those interested in Thai history, cultural and religious values. You wont look to Ayutthaya the same way again!

 Takkatan:

Voice it's a  Thai remake of a Korean Drama, both are really good.
