This lakorn, Thanwa got paired with then only 19-year old Pupe Kessarin. Despite that, they worked well together and overall I was satisfied with the performance of young Pupe. But 33-year old Andrew Cronin DID look a bit like creepo with her:) The show also features child actress as a ghost, but she is also good and likeable. Who is bordering on the line is the evil uncle. The whole murder plot and evil "stepmother" are surplus and not watchable, I tried to skip as much as possible. And if that was not enough of constant-yelling-bad-acting, to top it all there is yet another BEYOND SURPLUS character of the evil stepmother's "daughter", making it 2 stupid evil women in 1 house serving the same function in the drama, with actresses only 12 years apart in age. So overall count is 5 extras to a good romance. While every lakorn has some, 5 is a LOT.

While I enjoyed most of the main couple's interactions, I certainly did not enjoy most of the main story. The evil psychopatic "uncle" got way beyond the line. Even compared with the child ghost, lol. I think we CAN have a lovestory where the main couple is not surrounded by characters that mostly belong to prison/pillowed cell? Obviously, thai do not think so. Because this lakorn's story is actually pretty typical. Nevertheless I found the "crime line" quite unwatchable and mostly fastforwarded through it. The two main couples were cute, though. So was the good guardian spirit:) Still, most of the screentime we have to deal with crazy stuff centering around various antagonists, which sadly is a norm for a lakorn.

Extra points: 1) Kisses! Especially appreciated from such young nang'ek. I would excuse HER to fake, after watching 40-year old actresses STILL struggling with a small peck, lol. 2) Good song 'Ru Mai' by No One Else.
