Discovered this drama this year, and right off the bat, I can list down many flaws already BUT somehow the story grew on me and for whatever reasons I'm obsessed and have rewatched it multiple times.

OK, this is a remake of the 2006 drama. Unfortunately can't find the 2006 drama online anymore (let me know where I can find it) so would love to watch the original. And huge thanks to Neko Meow Meow for subbing. 34 eps, that was a huge undertaking. Now let's get to the review.

Pros: 1) Acting. I am obsessed with Ko-pinkploy pairing. They did great with their materials here. Yes, the female lead is very feisty and Pinkploy did great exhibiting all of Nit's characteristics - feisty, emotional, sweet, etc. You can tell she was rather green here though as I definitely think she's improved now. As for Ko, many pointed out about his looks. He's cute imo and very fair - and even in Thai media they called him Red Mouth for his red lips. I believe Ko is definitely main lead material, I read some comments saying his looks made him unsuitable to be the hero and politely disagree. That aside, he nailed this subtle in-love looks very well. So even though the main couple bickered too much, those subtle looks of him really signalled Pawee's changing feelings for Nit. Also, the mom. I'm not her biggest fan character wise but she definitely stood out. I guess the over-the-top portrayal worked based on how the character was written. Finally, the villainous characters, you'll hate them all so they did a good job. Especially Nong Phen, she did so well playing the distressed and obsessed ex Gf.

2) Good plot with strong supporting characters. So many supporting characters in the drama which helped move the plot along. Whether it's Mae Chee always giving them good advices, Nit's awesome co-workers and boss (literally Pat moved in with Nit's sister to look after her). Even the antagonistic supporting characters did well. Special mention to Nong Phen's mom and BFF P'Ben who just kept coming up with schemes to break Pawee and Nit.

3) Good chemistry. Ko-pinkploy naturally have great chemistry. I hope they can reunite for a 3rd drama. I love their interactions on and off cam. Mom and Dad's chemistry also really good. I know they reunited again in another drama but haven't watched it.

Cons:
1) Standard lakorn theme - Marital rape. Now, let's address the biggest problem. Drama had marital rape plot line. It's not unheard of in lakorn unfortunately. I have a different tolerance level when it comes to lakorn though but I can see why people got upset.
Other problematic themes - physical assault. I lost count how many times Nit slapped Pawee. Did he deserve it? Maybe, but not for all. Also forced kiss scenes, definitely normal in lakorn but I dont enjoy it.

2) Male lead's mom. Okay, she's portrayed in an over-the-top manner and also for comedic effects but her character is the root cause of so many issues. She kept threatening everyone with going to the mental hospital to force them to follow along with her wishes. That's manipulative behavior. She forced her son to break up with his gf despite Knowing they've been together for long and were in love with each other. She forced her son and Nit to get married (Nit not even her real family) despite knowing how Pawee and Nit couldn't stand each other, simply because she wanted Nit as a daughter in law, not because of her sons best interest. Wee cheated on Nit the night before the wedding, continued his relationship with his gf and even supposedly knocked her up and even then Mom wouldn't let them divorce. Her manipulative actions caused suffering for everyone but herself.

3) audio and make up. Some scenes, the actor's voice would echo and become unclear. And make up, wasn't flattering especially for Pinkploy. Many scenes she just looked yellow. Pinkploy is naturally tanned, makeup could've been done better. She's very beautiful though. There's this BGM that for me was tad overused. Rather loud and would pop up during confrontations or heated conversations. Annoyed me a little bui

So in conclusion, not a perfect drama but enjoyable nonetheless. Lakorns in general aren't perfect anyway so watch it keeping in mind youre watching a lakorn. That always works for me. Rewatch value? I'd say 7/10 because I've rewatched it many times. If you like arranged marriage trope, and enemies turned to lovers, this is for you
