I watched Jean Gaewalin before in her early "lakorn" called 'Mong Kut Ritsaya', which was a below-average show about some kind of reality-show beauty pageant, where she stood out with her elegant air, charm and grace. I remembered her so I looked forward to seeing her as a nang'ek in proper lakorn.

I'm only sad her rival here is Fang Pitchaya, as I love her and she was always a nang'ek material for me, not just nang'rai (though lakorn producers don't seem to agree with me). And it's apparently her last role, too.

And the pra'ek? Fluke Jira kinda does not give me the air of notorious playboy as his role here is supposed to be. He's the cute type, morelike. Nevertheless I like him with Gaewalin (kisses are not bad, thankfully:) He is a father of a little girl, too. For me, the child is important in the story. Because it's not just as carefree thing to get married only in name or for some kind of revenge plan, if a child's life is involved.

This has enough episodes for the whole thing to get dragged and diluted till the viewers don't care anymore. Then we of course have some "good ol' action kidnapping" to stir things up. I would LOVE to see lakorn that would not sink to this level, ONCE:) But looks like we cannot portray strong feelings until gun is involved. (That's how you recognize good romance: it can do WITHOUT anyone using as much as a knife... except at dinner table:)

When we get to actual closure of the revenge story, it's really close to the end. As for me, I always start to enjoy the drama better AFTER the characters confront each other about something the viewers already know. So, the dragged ones are not my cup of tea. Final epi brings yet another "kidnapping/shooting"... even TWICE in the row. Seriously, I feel like I should drop my rating to average 5.0. Tiresome. Oh, there's yet another real kiss. Alright! I give 5.5! LOL. The kiss scenes are like the ONLY re-watch value of this. I liked the couple, so I'll try 'Sapai Rod Saab'...
