Nostalgia

With a 8.7 rating, picking "Kleun Cheewit" for my first Thai drama/lakorn felt like a solid choice. However, after finishing the last episode it also acted as a grim reminder as to why you shouldn't always trust MDL ratings.
Let me begin by pointing out that this drama aired in 2017. With such a recent release comes certain quality expectations; they weren't met. It takes just an episode for you to question whether this drama aired in 2017 or 2007. When the producers asked themselves how to make the action scenes more exciting, some genius most likely suggested: "Hey, I know! Let's use the shaky camera technique! Oh and, not only that, let's use special effects to slow down the scenes as well. We can even go beyond slow-motion by rendering the scenes to 5 FPS!" Needless to say, the action scenes felt very outdated and not very 2017 at all. Also, the transitioning between scenes was terrible. Scene and music begins to fade but is abruptly cut and jumped to the next scene. Not smooth at all.
Storywise, the romance?
Jee and Sathit had an amazing hate to love journey, I really enjoyed watching their relationship progress.
Dao and Jett were cute together.
Piyak and Chaiyan... harmful, abusive, and toxic. Never have I felt so bad for a guy in a drama. If any guy is reading this, please know that if you ever fall in love with a person like Piyak and they treat you the way Piyak treated Chaiyan, please get out of that relationship. Not all love is healthy. You deserve trust, understanding, compassion, and most importantly, you deserve to give love and feel loved.
Storywise, the story?
I mean, meh. Each episode is nearly 2 hours long and there are 15 episodes in total. We could've probably cut the drama in half had the characters just TALKED instead of making assuptions and continuously misunderstood each other.
Finally, what did I enjoy most about this drama?
Except for Jee and Sathit, the two things that kept me going were... Suki and Chaiyan. Watching sassy, evil-laughing Suki was a true privilege. Such a loyal and fun character. Chaiyan is my new drama hubby. His loyalty and willingness to stand up for his friends is beautiful. He would make a great partner because instead of doting his other self when they're in the wrong he'd call them out on their bullshit. He's scold, forgive, and help them grow. #dreamhusband
