S Q
it makes you ask yourself a lot of questions
I'm still watching it - but i feel like it's already meaningful... I read spoilers and reviews though, so im not an "innocent" watcher! It is surely worth watching, it says a lot abt loneliness, sadness, and mother love and survival... Even for people who dont usually fall for these topics, it still conveys a lot! The actors look too good if you ask me - i shrink from commercial things, and unnecessary beauty is one of them. But i'm still easy to fool, so these beautiful faces grew up on me.I read abt this film being "realistic" - it certainly is, but drama-realistic, not docu - realistic. The art factor added to it is obviously important.
It's such an expressive movie that it makes me dig up ideas and feelings that havent crossed my mind in a long time. If this is not a proof of its value - than what is it??
Highly recommended.

this is a dirty manga
When two HANDSOME guys get employed at a new company, they randomly obsess over the ugly girl to use and abuse. She gets to sleep with both of them without much bother - being somehow retarded, because to be a wh*re would take more of a personality - and maybe some good-looks, which she totally lacks. Professionally she is still excellent (seriously??). But the pretty girl in the company gets angry for being left aside and tries to interfere. The ex-gf also comes into picture. This is what i get from this popcorn miniseries...The ML has a fetish for public sex, he is always ready and lustful. The SML is not far from this either. They must have been trapped on a desert island before running into the FL! Oh, and they all visit the SAME bar - and the bar is ALWAYS empty, not even one customer beside our characters!!
... It totally reminds me of Dori and his smut characters. Kisses are hot too!
As they say, it's so bad that it's good.

umm sorry whats it all about?
The political plot, the names and all the scheming are quite hard to follow honestly... I was expecting more action, i.e. fight scenes, but the prosecutor in this movie cannot fight!The bad guy who takes all the credit for this movie doesnt play anything spectacular, he just changes his looks according to the social status and thats it. The gore scenes dont add to the value of the movie... Honestly, something doesnt add up here. I got the general idea, good guys and bad guys striving to get their hands on some important compromising papers, easy women entertaining the rich - and what else? Some bromance developing in the process, right? And we should just wow at the thought that the prosecutor and the hoodlum become friends... Wow NOT! Just another trope...
Watch and imagine how good it couldve been if saved by grace! Which is not the case...

cheesy & light-hearted
Little to NO action in this drama, just a lot of flirting and 2 or 3 kisses, all in the scenic landscape of Thai mountains. This drama is like a longer commercial to promote tourism. Young actors' clothes and hair-do's are always neat and fashionable with a traditional touch, and everything looks idyllic...The handsome faces save the drama. Otherwise the usual tropes, but i wont point them out, just enjoy this relaxing ride.
Rewatch? Maybe to fill the space while looking for something new.

tragic fairy-tale
It totally IS a fairy-tale, since the pieces of puzzle put together are utterly unrealistic... BUT if supposedly it ever once HAPPENED so - or it might ever happen, the outcome is marvelous. There is this retarded father who falls victim to a cruel society, the compassionate guardian who hasnt always been like this, the cellmates who are more humane than the people outside, and - of course - the brilliant daughter played by an impressive CHILD ACTOR... Just these and it's enough to have a unique movie, brilliantly played by everyone, from main actors to supporting cast.What we can see here is not just a moving story, but also a top product of the drama-school of Korea. You know, when it's too good to be true...

quite funny!
I enjoyed this a lot, and i wouldnt have dropped 1 point but for the dragging ending. If you havent watched something entertaining lately, with good humour and action too - just watch this! It's really something i'm glad i found. Quite niche too i should say!The ML has a powerful scene presence and he is so versatile that i didnt recognize him at all, though i saw all his other important work. Every character is so much on point! No unnecessary drama for most part...
Very enjoyable. .......................................

quite touching drama
Despite the fact it engages a lot of tropes and the young actors are not all in the character and the acting is weird, this drama is definitely TOUCHING, maybe owing to the fact that the actors are so young and good-looking - like only young ppl can look. I find it moving, though i could see all the flaws and minuses and tropes of this drama.I'd say, it's so relatable to be young, full of dreams, naive and hesitant... Still the 1st ML is really typical MrPerfect - tall, handsome, rich, caring etc.
Not to rewatch, still enjoyable.

short enough to not get boring & quite nice in the BL category
THAI dramas have a thing for BL, and anyone can't but praise the excellent school they built over years.STILL this drama falls short from epic stories like KinnPorsche... It starts really daring, with a lot of sexual tension and power struggle, even implied BDSM, but after the first time together the ML's become some softies and the series turns into some boring romance. Too bad the initial vibe was lost!
I also came to hate with a passion this tropey obsession of lovers that met during childhood! Are we people so stuck into the past?

commercial success, American school & mature casting
I am a fan of mature casting, but this one didnt really suit the topic... I mean, you cannot cast mature people to act like teen sensation or something.The director certainly has studied American school so he/she engaged a lot of ANTI-TROPES (which is, the new tropes) just to make it shocking and entertaining - which i dont mind at all - but i wonder if he/she brought anything original or personal to it. Still IT IS dynamic, modern, easy to watch...
The ML and FL and the SML and all the cast are certainly great actors, but i somehow doubt this drama was made with sincerity... i mean, it's more like a show to bring fame and cash flow.
I totally hate shows that blacken the media and depict it like blood-suckers that feed on high-life scandals... Isnt it more like a love-hate relationship where celebrities are made through publicity and gossip?
Nice drama all in all, as long as you dont mind that the puppets' ropes are showing.
SIDE NOTE: The ML reminds me big time of the player guy in The Glory, maybe the haircut and acting style? And the ML's friend, with his locks, looks so much like Filipino actor in Fan Girl...

trashy movie but the ML is hot
And he looks a lot like Mark Suparat! His acting style - very natural and nuanced - is also similar to the Thai actor.The movie itself can hardly be called a movie, more like a poorly written manga.
I still can watch the ML just walking around and playing with the FL while looking super hot!
End of.

enjoyable most of the time
An excellent drama, despite being a bit outdated and definitely too long.Its major flaw, i'd say, its the crazy ending... since everything starts on a comedy note, how come it turns into a melodrama and finally becomes a tragedy? It doesnt add up to me. One VERY interesting thing is how the dark characters mix in the story with the humorous ones - the ML and his father are totally dark, while the FL and ppl on her side are sunny. Good job!
Cinematography is solid, a lot of nice details and good dialogues, also acting is very nuanced. The actors are particularly handsome and relatable - except for the nonsense "we cant be together though we are both single, mature and crazy in love". Even supporting cast is memorable...
Nice watch if you have time - or put the skip button to use.

very good
Actors are excellent, plot is entertaining - based on revenge but later enemies turn to lovers - so i was pleased to watch this. The SML - a village lad that can only love unconditionally - was also particularly good, as well as the traumatic mom.I honestly cannot praise this enough. Im sure i'll get back to it some day.

tropey but enjoyable
Nothing new abt the plot of this drama, but the cast is really nice, Cinderella is young and bubbly and brave, the Cold Prince is rather soft at heart and healing from past trauma...It could really be above average but for the cartoonish outfits and the impersonal settings - our ML is set on cleanliness...
Nice to watch in-between other dramas.

how to become a flop
What started pretty strong, as a dark revenge melodrama, turned soon into some boring nonsense where nothing added up. i feel sorry for the wasted potential this drama had, and especially for the excellent ML. BUT the plot was a total mess after the first few episodes, its just like they tried to patch together all the ideas gathered during a brainstorming session with the filming team.The ML and FL dont really communicate, though they frequently talk (!?). Everybody blackmails everybody and keeps secrets from them. As i already said, nothing adds up and its a total mess.
After ep13 or so, just skipped and watched the final - which is pretty rewarding - and thats all.

one of the best life lessons in the dramaworld
It could have been a great BL, it has a lot of undeveloped potential, but sadly the sexual tension between the leads was not explored.The actors are very natural, character development and psychological touch are done right, the plot is quite catchy and doesnt drag much. Some side roles still unnecessary, but then the bunch of friends is really something to watch! Also the businessman friend...
The skinny, narrow-framed ML comes across as more of a man than the hunk second ML, which is quite a performance! The ML is a tragic, still serene character - unique even in the world of drama! Absolutely unique! To be seen!
One particular thing i like abt this drama is its realism... Not every valuable person is valued in life, some worthy ppl are still treated like shit!!
Note: The assault of the ML by the SML was brushed off too easily. To drug someone, beat him, strip him half-naked and throw him unconscious in the bushes on a rainy night is attempted murder... It pained my heart and had me cry for real, since we already live in a cruel world. That scene triggered me unlike any other : (
