It Was Okay
So, this one took me a while to finish. I actually watched the first episode when it was initially released, but something about it didn't make me feel like 'Oh, I am looking forward to the next episode'.
I think off the bat what I was underwhelmed with was the introductions of not only the new generation, but the reintroduction of the Suparburoot Jutathep (SJ) characters especially the couples and great grandma. This was probably what I was most looking forward to the most before the series started - how they were going to show off each parents' personalities and how maybe their kids are the same or not. But the SJ characters don't seem like their originals and I get that they are all now older and parents, but being a big fan of the original, it was a shame that it wasn't really shown much. It got a little better as the episodes went on, but still it was just okay.
And that also goes for the new generation, especially the sons. There wasn't anything special about their introductions or even to show what their personalities are. I was surprised that them just being in a room together was everyone's intros...again, I can't help but compare to the SJ series and how strong of an introduction it was for each brother and each of their future wives. Chat ended up being a breath of fresh air when he popped into the last few episodes, but at first I wasn't even excited about that, lol. Cause again we weren't really introduced to these characters well enough imo.
The main couple was again okay for me. I don't think they had romantic chemistry, but their scenes together weren't terrible either. But that really can't be helped when the FL is written to barely think about the ML especially in a romantic sense. Yes, romance isn't a big part of this one, but because of it being rare, that's when there should be moments of it where it should just then spark! But that doesn't happen here. And at the end of the day, this series is mainly about how the couples start and end their journeys. So, it should be an important factor.
The main story didn't really keep my attention. And man was that a really big loop to make the connection of how Laorchan is Thewaphrom. But the last couple of episodes were probably the best overall for me, those I did enjoy a lot more. I think I would only rewatch certain scenes rather than whole episodes. And the acting was good, nothing terrible.
I know a lot of people thought the first series in SJ wasn't the best, but it's honestly one of my favorites, lol. I think it's mainly cause of Great and Preem for me, I really liked their chemistry. So, this being the start so far is a little disappointing. But it looks to be picking up so, onto the next!
