It's About Brothers


The story is about three siblings, but the main focus is on the two brothers, Korn (played by Ohm) and Win (played by Perth), it starts with the brothers being very close to each other despite their father constantly bullying and bellitling Korn for believing he is cursed, but obviously everything is about to change. The brothers befriend their new neighbor’s daughter Rung (played by Film), it is clear both brothers are infatuated by her, but Korn denies his feelings as to not get in his brothers way, but it’s in vain since Rung also has feelings for him.

It’s obvious from the moment that Rung is introduced that she will serve as a tool to build up the brothers’ rivalry, which may explain why so many people seem to dislike the character, but particularly I think most of the hate is unwarranted. I was pleasantly surprised when her character finally showed some agenda and wasn’t only used as a plot device, Film continually delivered a solid performance

The father, on the other hand, is an absolutely despicable character. It has been a very long time since I disliked a character so much, for that I think I should congratulate the actor for his commitment to the role and the writers for coming up with the worst father in a fictional setting winning the award straight from the hands of Vegas’ dad (KinnPorsche). Everytime that man spoke I wanted him to get killed off instantly, while understanding the importance of the character, he overstayed his welcome very quickly.

I really hated the convoluted way they brought up the main drama, it was in a way that if one single thing didn’t happen as they showed, if the character didn’t do exactly what they were supposed to, no matter how nonsensical it was, it wouldn’t have worked and because of that it felt very fake and forced.

Now I don’t want to sound like I hated the series, because I didn’t. I actually really liked the brothers' relationship, I thought Perth and Ohm worked really well together, in a way I didn’t expect, I really believed these two were brothers and that they cared for each other as I needed to in order to be involved with their story. Their fallout, even if convoluted, as I said, still pulled my heartstrings.

Baotoei brought the perfect air of maturity to the older sister character, Li unconditional love for her brothers is the glue that keeps the family together making her the unsung hero of the story. Ohm’s acting is a highlight for me, I feel like he really found himself in the character and was able to play it in a very believable way. Perth suffers from extreme baby-face, which is not his fault, but his acting is also growing, despite that he held his own on the more emotional scenes.

Light Spoiler

The ending felt a little rushed as if they were in a hurry to tie all the loose ends and not really let any moment breathe. Thinking over it I didn't like how the story painted Rung as in the wrong for seeking revenge, what made her arc not so satisfying. I also think they pushed a lot by having several years go by while only changing the characters' hairstyles, but I will let it pass. Overall, an enjoyable watch with good performances, an interesting story and an unexpected twist.
