just mild spoiler| someone took the plot and yeet it to the trash bin
I don't know what happened. It's like if the series and the trailer are written by two different guys. You were anticipating a dark series about a kidnapper and his kidnapped victim, filled with dangers, conflicts, dramas and actions. Instead they wrapped everything that was advertised and its main plot/conflict point in like 2 eps and then presented you with 'cutesy' filler scenes for the rest of the series and sprinkled some try hard drama here and there to make it 12 eps. Genuinely disappointing the way this show just flatlined. The plots are scattered, no main build ups and genuinely just FLAT and if I'm being frank, BORING.
The romance was cheesy and if you've seen more than 2 GMMTV series you probably have already seen it all already. Overused sound effect ( ESPECIALLY the dog barks, amusing at first but by the end it's just genuinely tiring and annoying).
Acting wise, I know a lot of people criticized Leng but my main problem is actually Ohm Thipakorn (Actor playing Men). He's just... so.... stiff??? I genuinely don't understand how he seems to only have 1 tone and 1 facial expression through the entire 12 eps of the show. There's no actual feeling, no emotions, it's like he's reading the script line by line. (Looking for a series about a person with heart disease? Save yourself some time and watch 1000 stars. I'd take Tian over Men any days). I'm sorry but if this continues I'm genuinely concern for Sweet tooth Good dentist that he'll be playing the main character next.
All and all, if you're expecting a real drama/thriller series then save yourself the trouble and go watch kinnporshe or any other show. Kidnap is about 95% any other romance show and about 5% kidnap as a 'gimmick' to try and be different (and fail miserably at it). Genuinely a boring show. I probably dropped it like 10 times and the only reason I continue watching this show is because there's nothing else to watch that day. And even then I couldn't bring myself to watch it fully and just fast forward a bunch. Again, no plot for most of the time just filler scenes.
