What started as a cute and fluffy romance became a remarkable love story to remember.

This drama is my second Thai Lakorn after Kleun Cheewit. Both by Mark Prin and I have to say, though he is a narcissistic douche bag in both, you can't help but fall in love with him.
so what makes this drama so remarkable? For me, it is the character development.
Never in my history of watching Asian dramas have I encountered a drama with such impeccable character development, the best part is that it came from every character. though the bad guys were punished as they deserved.
The male lead, though his came a bit late was able to overcome his fears and reach a certain point of maturity that I'm glad the author gave. The same goes for the female lead as she discovered that love is not meant to be one sided.
Love to Cleopatra and Miss Thailand for their amazing performances, and P'Chet who I loved so much.
The person with the greatest character development in this drama was non other than our beautiful and outstanding second female lead, Yada. As we know, it is very common for the scorned second female lead to have her world centered around the male lead, which I feel is a very problematic and narcissistic thing to do. She is either an annoying ex, an irritating childhood sweetheart, or a past entanglement who just cant seem to let go. Yada however broke this stereotype because she didn't center her life around the male lead, she developed herself in the most beautiful of ways. (You will learn this when you watch the drama)

Overview: This drama is very captivating at the beginning and you'll love it so much. It gets kind of draggy at episode 9 and I was literally about to drop it, but I didn't and I love my decision to continue. Not many people will be happy with the occurrence towards the end (which some people described as messy - I don't think so anyways), but these things were what made me love the drama the most. It felt like I was sitting right beside the author of the manga and for the first time, I cried for a drama and not just a tear or two, but I was literally wailing.

The music was amazing, especially Mark Prin's cover of Yesterday by Slot Machine. Very beautiful song and I totally recommend you listen to it with translations if you do not understand Thai like me.

The acting was top-notch. From the main leads, to the support roles and even the villains (Pondayt really slayed the role of abusive husband perfectly, you could literally see the evil in his eyes, you wont even remember that he's acting). The emotions were beautifully portrayed, especially at the end by Mark Prin. Our darling Mew also did an amazing job.
The chemistry in this drama wasn't lacking at all, it had all the elements together and managed to not end up as a slap and kiss. Thank the author and drama lords for that.

Not many people may have the attachment I had to this drama, but if there is one thing I know, its that this is by far the best Asian drama I have set my eyes on. it beats everything because it had everything I was looking for in a drama.
So good job Author, actors and crew, and good-luck viewers. Enjoy the rollercoaster because the end is most satisfying.
