This review may contain spoilers
Personally, I didn't fully enjoy this drama because I found that there were too many unnecessary scenes so I had to skip a lot until the scenes between Lak and Massaya or the fight between Sajee (or her daughter) and Massaya comes on and the grandmother and Mae Prom have to get involved.
However, it does have a nice story and moral lesson, which is "to not let anyone have an influence or power towards the decisions you'll make for yourself and in the future". In this case, Lak and Massaya shows this by rebelling against the social conformity and expectations placed by society and the people around them, particularly their super-dominant grandmother.
Although, they are labelled as "brother and sister" they are not actually related but it's that their grandmother and other relatives are worried that it will affect their family's good name and honorable reputation.
I liked how each characters had actual reasons as to why they act mean or feel triggered by others and this is clearly evident by their experiences. For example, I understand that Sajee's hatred is caused by the lack of affection and encouragement that her mother failed to express to her ever since she was young.
Her mother seems to always favor Lak's dad and therefore also favors Lak hence lacking on her other grandsons and granddaughters alongside. Grandmother always had favoritism towards certain people and Massaya entering the Rattanamahasarn household triggered Sajee's hatred to grow even more.
Sajee felt threatened by Massaya's presence and thinks that she might become further distant from her mother. She doesn't want her children to feel that they are not appreciated by their grandmother and be filled with hatred. So she tries to drive Massaya out of the Rattanamahasarn house.
In the end, Sajee is only acting on behalf of a desperate and insecure mother who is willing to do anything in order for her children to be loved and appreciated by the people around them.
The actors/actresses played their characters well and delivered the emotions and thoughts needed to allow the audience to understand the reasons towards their actions. Personally, I liked the two main leads: Lak and Massaya.
It makes me feel happy that majority of the female characters (e.g. Massaya) are strong-minded and that some of the women can be dominant towards the other male characters at times. This is because often Thai lakorns portrays weak-minded and frail female leads and it's nice that this drama doesn't follow that aspect.
In terms of music, I only remember that happy Massaya song (sorry I don't know the title of the song) playing in some of the cute scenes between Lak and Massaya but the rest of the other soundtracks I can't remember. Maybe because that soundtrack made more impact to me than the other soundtracks?
Overall, I can watch this drama again but maybe after a long time.
