Trust me this show is Amazing

●HOW I CAME TO IT
This drama was suggested by my MDL friend SHINO,, and indeed this was a very refreshing and quality work which has excellent rom com presentation.

●STORY
The series is drawn with four major characters, Lipda has a stock broking company and likes Awwasaya, who has been by her side since he started his company. Awwasaya is a hard working woman but is in love with her junior office worker Pranon, and to court him she starts a secret chat without revealing her name. The whole office gets curious as to who is the secret lover of pranon and everybody tries to find out. However pranon gets confused and thinks his coworker Pripprou is texting him. This whole lot of confusion creates new twists and lies which is so interesting.

●PLOT VIEW
The online love, admiring someone without revealing who you are, its quite catchy and interesting. It happened when the phones were newly launched and I have seen many successful stories of online love but its also risky that the other person may be a bad one.
This series was clear concepted that you fall for the face, not for the words and warmth received online. I had lot of questions regarding pranon affection as he definitely did not sort out whom he actually liked and goes with the wave rather than getting the truth only to have regret later.
i was rooting for Awwasaya from the start and wanted her happy ending. but the way this series took a 360 degree turn kept me thinking, but still i admired the maturity she showed in every aspect. she had a caring side but she wants t be strong and thats nothing wrong. she dealt with her heartbreak very maturely which made me like her even more.
I hated the working environment as the coworkers were too much nosy, they were like paparazzi who want uncover the secret lover. It was too much and I literally skipped through these corny group meetings.

●ACTING/CAST
Anne Thong as Awwasaya, just stood as powerful pack of surprise. I am highly impressed by her character portrayal. one strong woman who didn’t rely her life on man and can do anything. I just added her to my fav thai actress list. I cant believe she is such a senior actress, but looks young, no wonder her acting is flawless.
Peter corp As Lipda was fun and loyal being. His selfless love towards saya is impressive. He is the type of boss one could ask for. His expression and laugh were totally killer.
Ekkachai As Run a homosexual person was flawless. He is the friend I truly want, supportive every time through thick and thin. he entertained though out the drama and is very cute to watch. his dialogue delivery and body language were flawless.
Mark prin as Pranon was really a confused person who didn’t realize whom he likes. He needed to sort out his feeling first than to question out his partner feelings. He was good but not impressive, his face seemed as if he is depressed most of the time
Kimberly Kim as Pripprou was the most annoying among the four leads. Instead of questioning other love, she should have been truthful about herself. her stupid actions not only hurt her but majority of the people. If she had not been in the series it would have a simple story. The only good thing was she had continuous character growth.


●MUSIC
Music was fine but not catchy except for the closing track. I thought that this is sung by Peter corp and later checked it to know my guess is correct. he also has a scene singing and truly he got a mesmerizing voice.

●REWATCH
I liked the series and only thing I will rewatch would be Awwasaya scene, she is the perfect example of strong independent woman, very inspiring.

●APPRECIATION
The importance of family and friends was depicted nicely. Human need to be kind and honest to each other. Because we all know if we lie once, we need to lie again to cover up the previous lie, hence creating a mountain of lie. We need to be upfront about our feeling.
The food for thought written by Awwasaya on her blog were not just excellent for the series it were also helpful to ordinary person who can connect to her deep thoughts. these thought gives a clear and different aspect to look at the world and face problems.

●CRITICISM
The work environment felt suffocating. there should have been some rules regarding the workplace.
The return of Ex was like a typical lakron only to torture the leads.

●FAV SCENE
When Lipda gives Awwasaya the task of switching on the TV, Changing the clothes and cook food with the hands tied. This was a really fun game and I would really try it someday.

●RECEMMENDATION
This was not a typical lakron, so am highly satisfies after watching this. it was lacking in thing but is enjoyable to heart content making you sob.

●AFTERTHOUGHT
I don’t agree with the thought that woman should pretend to be helpless just to lure a man, she should be independent. Why men cant be sure of their feeling, going around flirting with girls. if they are so sure about their feeling why wait just pursue the girl and try your hardest to win her.
