OMG, this show is only for braindead people...
As usual with GMMTV and most thai shows this year, this show begins with a good premise, but the story and execution fall flat on the belly, like when jumping from a 10m tower.
I am speechless how bad this show is and how many people dig this. It's not the worst show this year, but it comes close. The story is boring, partly childish, all over the place, very predictable and of course both MLs have mental baggage to deal with... And everything will be resolved easily... There are some good moments, there is some production quality but overall it's bad. So it's the same story more or less then any other Thai show and the kidnapping only plays a role for 3 episodes. The actors are underutilzed, most characters are very one-dimensional and I feel sorry for them to have to do such a crap production with bad and lazy writing.
Let's talk about the portrayal of the Thai Justice System: When you watch this show, you think Thailand is the worst. Yes, there is always some corruption anywhere but come on... If I were working in that system I would be pissed about the show. The "bad" woman in this show kidnaps and tries to kill one of the leads and his dad, but the next scene shows, that she goes free for ANOTHER trial. How would that happen in real life? It would not! You would still be in jail for the OTHER thing you did. If you have been catched @ attempted murder, you will not get a free of jail card!!! Period. This was ridicilous! What are the writers and director thinking? The wrote in that she goes free and is murdered by a victim!
And don't let me start with all the product placements... GMMTV does get a cut from the actors for every ad they do, but they still have to fill up nearly every show with overbording product placements. It's so annoying and people (fangirls?) still reward such shows with a high ratings. 🤷♂️ So for me, this was a disappointment.
I can only recommand to watch this, if you are really really bored, otherwise most shows from Korea, Japan and Taiwan in 2024 are much more worthwhile to watch and have a consistent, well written story and good acting (because the script is well written).
