The acting by the main male leads is absolutely stellar—both deliver performances that are easily a 10/10. They bring depth and emotion to their roles, which is commendable. However, the story's presentation leaves much to be desired.
As someone who has read the entire novel and watched Addicted Season One and Stay With Me, I couldn't help but feel that this Thai version pales in comparison. Unfortunately, it comes across as a less impactful and somewhat cheap imitation of the original works. While the actors give it their all, the adaptation fails to capture the same magic and intensity that made the previous versions so compelling.
That said, for fans who are new to this story, this series could be a great introduction. The chemistry between the leads and the overall production value might make it the best entry point for those unfamiliar with the original content. New viewers may find it engaging and enjoyable, even if it doesn't quite measure up to the versions that long-time fans know and love.
No offense intended, but for fans of the original content, this adaptation might not live up to expectations.
