*Spoilers MAY BE ahead*

I need to take a break from Korean/Taiwanese drama. So I haven't watched a Thai Lakorn for so long, the last one I watched was Kaew Lorn Phat (Something like that) After watching this, I LOVED IT (Coming from a guy's point of view)

Story:
Pretty unique, I have never watch a drama like this ever? To be honest, I found episode 1-4 kinda boring, but after a while it picked up. There are some misunderstanding and so-so. There's no evil second lead so that's a new thing to me (plus for me). The bad"guy" doesn't come out until the end but as you watch on, they give you hints, so look out for those.
The plot itself is already self-explanatory: Selfish and conceited girl turns good

Acting/Character:
All the cast did EXCELLENT, mostly the two main characters!
+Chemistry between the two leads is cute :)
+No evil second lead girl/boy
+Angels :P
-Kinda annoying second lead (Not Pat) though (Sticks to main actor like glue sometimes)
-Pat's and Beauty's relationship will sometimes be annoying (To me sometimes it was)

Music:
The music wasn't that bad but rather dull, there was like only 3 songs that I could remember
2 instrumenal music?
1 vocal song

REWATCH VALUE: Probably ( If Im bored and need a drama to watch)

Watch this drama if you're a big lakorn fan or asian drama fan. This is one of my favorite thai lakorn :)

*SPOILERS MAY BE AHEAD*

First of all, let me say that I do not REGRET WATCHING THIS DRAMA RAW (No english subtitles). While episode 1-4 on Viki got me excited and interested, I still wanted more episodes. So I resorted to the RAW episodes. Even though, I don't understand some parts, I still get some sense of what is happening in the episode. Now moving on!

Also note that
Odd Episodes are about 50 minutes - 1 hour long
Even Episodes are about 30 minutes - 40 minutes long

Story: 9/10
Qi Bai Cao loss her parents in a fire. She was picked up by Qu Xiang Nan during the fire and he became Qi Bai Cao's shifu (I think that's how you spell it), Qu Xiang Nan was a great Taekwondo in the final competition. He won the final rounds, but he was later tested for the use and help of drugs, and tested positive. Qu Xiang Nan's reputation sunked to the lowest and he stopped doing Taekwondo. Several years later, Fang Ting Hao, another great Taekwondo won the final rounds, but was falsely framed for using drug to help him win. Thankfully he didn't and tested negative.

I'm going to stop there, since I don't want to spoiled everything. Overall for the story I enjoyed and many parts teared me up (Especially in the later and near end episodes). If you understand the chinese language, then I advised you to watch this drama.

Character: 10/10
I understand that Qi Bai Cao's character portrayed by Hu Bing Qing won't appealed to several people, but understand one thing she is protective of her friends/families and, once she sets a goal, she goes for it. The three main guys' character were pretty well done too. Especially Chu Yuan's and Ruo Bai's character.

Acting: 9/10
I haven't really watching any of Hu Bing Qing's drama, since she seems to be a new actress. In my opinion, she can cry good (Maybe to me :P), and the the other actors/actresses stay true to their character.

Music: 9.5/10
I loved the music and the instrumentals. I want to find the instrumental musics so much, but I can't find them anywhere T^T. There was 2 main songs that I took a liking to.

Rewatch Value: 6/10
Eh, 32 episodes, it took me about 5-6 days to finish this drama, but hey it was worth it! I wouldn't watch it again, because there are so many other dramas to watch too. But if I ever go back to this one, I'll probably watch the cute and fighting parts.

Pros:
+Three guys to ship the main girl with
+Great music
+One long and short episode (Odd/Even)
+One of the dramas that stays true to its genre.
+Good characters portrayed by actors/actresses
+Main girl's hairstyle (Hey, it's pretty to me :P)

Cons:
-It won't attract many romance-watching drama people because it has less romance
-It won't appealed to many drama-watching people because it's a sport drama
-Season 2, because not alot people watch seasons, some rather prefer a full 10-20 episodes drama series.
-Special effect won't appealed to some people

(I die-hard ship Qi Bai Cao with Chu Yuan at first, they were the first OTP I shipped in the drama, but later on Ruo Bai's character got me. Ruo Bai's character is really nice and caring for Bai Cao)

In my opinion, this drama was all over the top. You'll end up hating and loving characters back and forth.
THREE WORDS: "Boring But Interesting", you may be like "What? That doesn't make sense!" At first I was like that, but then I begin to get used to it. You'll get used to it.

STORY:
The story was pretty good, I enjoyed it. It was pretty brand new to me. There were some plot twist, revenge, romance, and etc. For the first few episode, it's going to focus on Miao Miao (Kitty) and then to everyone.

ACTING/CAST:
Honest, the whole reason why I watched this was because I wanted find new drama with new faces, i'm kinda tired of seeing the same actress and actor (I.e Aaron Yan, Chris Wang, Sonia Sui). That's why when I was scrolling, this drama caught my attention.

Nown on to acting:
They were pretty new to me, and they amaze me. To me I feel some of their acting (Kitty, Dragonfly, and etc.) I'm really looking forward to some of these actors's/actress's new drama.

MUSIC:
The MUSIC......... The first time I listened to it, it got me alright. But as I was watching, they keep putting music like always. I was pretty tired of hearing the same songs. The only notable and worth listening to was "Be Yourself" by Genie Chuo and I don't know the other one but it was catchy.
Sometimes though, the music will foreshadow what's going to happen next.

OVERALL:
Pros:
+New Faces
+Catchy song ( only 2 though for me)
+Story is interesting, kept me thinking and excited for the next episodes
+Plot twist got me like "WHAT.......?"

Cons:
-Dialog drag the story a bit, they talked for about 10-30 minute during some episode
-Some characters are darn annoying

*MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS, READ AT RISK!!!* (AND ALSO LONG REVIEW)

First of all.....a little rant from me.
OMG, this drama was so annoying, while the the first three episode was good, somehow I just gave up when I reached episode 10. I started skipping scenes when I reached episode 10. It was almost like this in every episode, ACTION, ROMANCE, and then ACTION. And also, they killed some of the good characters while leaving the bad guys alive!

Also, another thing, I had high hope that a crazy woman won't appear in this drama. I mean this drama already have so much action, BUT then they add this one crazy woman who is also obsess with power that goes WHY YO TRYING TO SEDUCE MAH MAN! But, what was I expecting, this is a Thai drama, so I guess a crazy woman is common. ¯\(°_o)/¯

Story: 7/10
I felt like the story died a bit in the middle, somehow the story lost it's main focus between the revenge part. It was mostly the two main guy's group shooting each other throughout the episodes. I wonder what happened to the main guy's temptation to kill his rival.

Since there is no synopsis, I'll tell a bit about this drama, in my way :D.
There is this gang called Charuptiki??(something like that) that had conflict with the police, and the head honcho of the gang died, and his wife saw the man (Anon) who killed him. The wife (Nai Wuising) was like I am going to get revenge for my my husband. Also, she was also pregnant. Nai had her baby the same time the Anon's wife had, and also at the same hospital (Coincidence? I think not)

Nai was like, If I am going to get revenge, then I better do this, so she switched her baby with Anon's wife's baby. Her ultimate plan was to make Anon's son kill his own father.
Don't worry, this is basically the main point of Episode 1.

Acting: 8..5
Most of the actors were good, and did the job excellent. I don't know why, but Thai actresses and actors perform really well in their roles.

Characters: 8
I hated Cho (Main Character #1), he became the head honcho of the gang. I started to like Anawin (Main Character #2) better, but until near the end of the drama, I hated him too. Mui (the main girl) was actually pretty good, I liked her character, she really didn't need any development. There are also some other characters like Cho's group: Bupa (Annoying), Anda (*******), and Wayu (Probably one of the few character I liked throughout the drama ). And lastly the other two women: Dao (Favorite character in this drama, also Anawin's sister/Cho's biologically sister) and lastly the crazy annoying woman Venus.

Two of my favorite character were Dao and Wayu, just a brief explanation why they were.
Dao: She's brave and kicks ass! I loved the moment when she slapped and make fool of Venus. Her side of the story was sad, it killed it a bit of me. She's strong, but also fragile at heart.

Wayu: Even though he's part of Cho's gang, he's the one that later knew that he did something wrong. He tries to do many things to redeem himself, but later just turn himself in.

And also, the main reason why I continued watching this drama was because of them both.

Music: 7
There were about 2 songs in this drama. They're not memorable, I mean they are fine, but just not remarkable to me. They may speak out to other people, but to me, the music is pretty bland to me.

I guess, my whole post was more on the negative side, so I'll point out some positives:
Pro:
+Cho loves Mui throughout the whole drama
+Mui is a good female lead
+Dao
+Wayu
+Wayu's and Dao's relationship (I wish there was more!)
+Good acting by everyone

Cons:
-Betrayals
-Annoying misunderstandings. But I guess this wouldn't be Thai drama, if there wasn't misunderstanding.
-Annoying crazy woman
-So much killing -.- (There was so many gunshots and killing, this is my first time seeing so many deaths and people dying in a drama)
-Cho's mom, not his real mom
-I HATED when Cho keeps grabbing Mui's arm, I felt like her arm was going to tear off ¬_¬
-OKAY, I just have to point out this one particular scene, the part when Cho and Dao ALMOST kissed. DUDE, they are siblings, what was the writer thinking??! And that one scene when they almost got married to each other before Dao stopped the marriage. I was just like what the heck is the writer thinking? Incest?(¬_¬)
-Story somehow shifted from trying to kill Anon to the conflict between the Elite Eagle Squad (The top police group) v.s. the Charuptiki.

If you're looking for a Revenge/Action with Thai story element in it, then I guess this would be the one for you. BE WARNED THOUGH, you may get frustrated at some point of the story.

Rewatch Value: 5
NO, I would never watch this drama again! If I have to, then I would only was a video of my two favorite characters.

AND lastly, I wanna say thank you to the subbers for doing a fantastic job for subbing this drama, without them, I would have not watched this drama.

TEAM DAO+WAYU!!!
