It's an one man show --- TOR / SILA

Watching this show in June 2022, which is like 3 years after the release of this show and this is my 2nd Thai drama. I was heavily impressed with F4 Thailand so wanted to give one more Thai drama a go and stumbled upon this and there were just praises for this drama in the review and comments section. So gave it a go....

I have seen my fair share of korean and chinese dramas and i am neither a korean or chinese native but i thoroughly enjoy watching these shows. I binged this drama and for the most part of it i am satisfied with the drama.

STORY: Story is nothing new, a son who wants to avenge his and his mom's death. Though he survives but he wants to avenge against the people who made his childhood a hell.

The story actually very smartly justifies why a revenge is needed because the bad people are very strong / Powerful / fully loaded so even law cannot do anything to them. In the 1st episode itself they show how these evil people kill someone and nobody does anything despite giving a police complaint. All the CCTV footages will be gone, evidences will be gone which is why Tor/Sila decides to go his own way to take revenge and teach them a lesson. I actually support Tor in this as someone has to teach them a lesson rather than leaving everything on karma. They should taste their medicine or else evil people will never know how bitter the taste is. I know in all this Tor's aunt dies , though she is my favorite character but she dies due to her own foolishness. The silly mistakes she did and left a trail behind which led her to get caught for having an affair with Sida's sister's husband. So i don't blame Sila or his plan for this.

ACTORS: Like i mentioned in the headline that this is a one man show ---- TOR /SILA. This man whose actual name is also Tor oozes charizma. He was born to do this role. Whenever he is on screen , you just want to just stare at his face. Apart from being good looking, he is a brilliant actor too. He totally lived and breathed SILA. You can just see that fire in his eyes whenever he encountered these evil people. Actually i almost dropped this drama because of the brainless FL but this guy just pulled me back again until i finished the show.

Now coming to the other lead, our Female lead MIN-------My god!!! from where do i start. I Have never seen such a brainless, such an underwritten FL ever. I thought chinese dramas have the most brainless, annoying FLs ever. But this female MIN just takes away the trophy by a huge margin. Her character doesn't add anything to the story, nor there is an importance to her character. I so badly wanted to forward her scenes but most of her scenes were with SILA so i couldn't. She is extremely JUDGMENTAL, extremely PREJUDICED , extremely ANNOYING, extremely IRRITATING. My vocabulary is limited so i don't know if there is any other word which is the heighted version of EXTREME then i would use that. She started judging SILA from the get go, her reasoning were not backed by any proof nor data , its just what she believed because SILA owned a nightclub so she thought he is nothing but a filthy/bad person. Whenever she met SILA, she insulted him saying he is a bad person because his money is earned through a nightclub or by women selling their bodies. For this reason atleast i didn't hate KWAN so much because she never judged SILA because of his profession, not even once. So whenever she physically hit MIN , i didn't even feel an ounce of pity for her, infact i was happy because i thought atleast someone is teaching her a lesson. I think the original intention behind MIN's character is someone who is extreely good, who selflessly works for her family etc but none of that came across because of her judgmental character towards the ML. MIN's character didn't see any development till the end, i don't even know why they needed her character. Even if you remove her character still the story will flow without any hindrance as she added nothing to the story. All she did was Stalk and Harass SILA. She was behind him like a leech, who continuously looked for him and all the time same dialogues. She had only 4-5 dialogues in the entire show. " Your are Tor", "Stay away from KWAN", "Tor is dead to me", "I hate you" and in the later part of the drama "Tor don't take revenge""It's all in the past". In ep 19, for 10 -15 mins she just said P'Tor, P'Tor, P'Tor.......Writer just recycled these dialogues for her in every episode and i am not joking. Whoever is going to watch, if you are just curious then just randomly open any episode and just watch her scenes with SILA, you will understand. In one episode she will tell TOR is dead to me and in the very next episode she will go find SILA and just repeat those dialogues again. Not once SILA looked for her , infact every time she met him, she just jumped on him to remove his shirt to either see the ring or the scar. She kept meddling in ML's business with no results and kept doing it , i don't know for what reason...at one point i thought she is just finding reasons to go see SILA... In one of the episodes she just goes into men's changing room and takes picture of ML changing his clothes. I see it as molestation. Whatever might be the reason but she just takes many pictures of ML changing his clothes. What if he had done the same, took her pictures when she was changing her clothes then would she have accepted. And on the contrary she kept calling SILA a bad person who doesn't respect women...i was like "woman you were the one who took almost naked pictures of him". She kept harassing SILA in every episode and same dialogues everytime. In ep 20, her sister insults her when she sees that SILA is alive and her sister Min is going out with SILA, then Min will be like "I am used to used stuff, and i happy that he loves me" that was her dialogue to defend her man and her relationship....slow claps to the writer...In another episode, she goes to ML's house to tell him to stay away from her sister, then ML will be like its none of your business so just get out of my house but she keeps following him and keeps repeating the same dialogue and they eventually fall into the pool....then she hits him and he kisses her and she was be like i hate you and the same thing repeats in the next episodes. Makers should have just edited her scenes because i felt super repetitive. I think she was just there for the slap and kiss part, i mean i don't even see that as a kiss, its just keeping his lips on hers..that's it. He could have done the same with a wall or a door...nothing would have changed....anyway i can go on and on about her.....but will stop here...lol..

Other character's did justify their roles like SIDA who was a plain 1 dimensional villain and she excelled in that role. All other character's were good too except for MIN ...lol

LOGICAL VALUE: Lol.....I understood in the very 1st episode itself that i should switch off my brain while i am watching this....FL lives in a huge mansion with servents but she and her family is apparently poor. I was like if that is the definition of poor then i am penniless homeless lol...I don't know how it works in Thailand but if a bomb is related then it is considered as a terrorist activity and looks like anybody can get and plant a bomb, lol...also even if a major shareholder dies, it doesn't mean his stocks becomes invalid.....logic and this drama doesn't go hand in hand.....I was like ok if i question everything then i might probably won't go past ep 1, so i started accepting whatever they tried to show but in few scenes even my sleeping brain was like give me a break,,.....how is this even possible or even happening...

So......bottomline is
If you have really high tolerance then only take up this project....it can be either for logic or FL......i am not joking, MIN will get on to your nervous. In few episodes even TOR won't be able to save the scene because of her....
