Wasted Potential… Nice OSTs though!
I dropped this lakorn on episode 6… I just can’t get through the succeeding episodes anymore. I just watched clips of the lakorn through Twitter and honestly was just tuning in for the Jutathep cousins’ cameos and the ChatKwan wedding everybody’s been waiting since the beginning of the series.
Truth to be told, this was the next Dhevaprom installment I was anticipating for because I thought this would have a feel-good and fun kind of vibes after the drama-filled and angst-filled drama that is Dujupsorn. Like I expected this would be a light watch because it’s the final installment of the series. I even thought that theur conflict would lie around the fact that Cheewan thinks she’s inferior to Saruj and that she’ll be trying to get on terms with the fact that she is not inferior and their statuses do not matter at all. But alas… what I’ve gotten wasn’t what I expected.
I heard that the screenwriter of Poncheewan has a bias towards Poncheewa, which was why they focused more on her story. And it’s not like Cheewan and Saruj’s story were the next focus after Poncheewa because it’s literally Muslin, her husband, and a supposed nobleman (Saruj) that sticks his nose in her business.
I also don’t like how they wrote the characters in this installment. Like you’re telling me the Khun Phum we have seen in the previous lakorns, most especially in Dujupsorn is the same one in Poncheewan? Absolutely not ? even the characters of the 5 monkeys were ruined by one single scene (when they supported Saruj’s plan on literally eloping with Muslin ?).
I also was so confused by the fact that anybody can just go in and out of the Jutathep Palace? Like what is going on? ?
On the other hand, I enjoyed the cameos of the other Dhevaprom girls, especially during that banquet scene! All so pretty. And that scene where all the Dhevaprom girls paid their respect to Grandma Orn… it got me giggling.
Now this may seem an unpopular opinion but I did wish they did ChatKwan’s wedding in their own lakorn or they should’ve just implied they got married in the show just like what they did with Laorchan and Phu’s wedding in Dujupsorn. I guess something about it being promoted more and more by the PH and the channel itself was odd cause like why are they promoted more than the main leads themselves? ? well anyway, that wedding scene was cute so it is what it is. I wouldn’t have minded it if the main leads were main leading in their own story, but they weren’t so…
To add, I also love the OST in this drama. I heard that that was supposed to be the OST of the entire series, and I see it honestly. It perfectly captures the essence of the next generation of Dhevaproms and Jutatheps.
The OST, KaoPP’s chemistry, the 5 Monkeys’ cameos, and the Dhevaprom ladies’ cameos are genuinely the only saving grace of this lakorn. #JusticeForKaoPP #JusticeForPoncheewan
Do I recommend this lakorn? Honestly, no :(
