Great premises but erratic delivery
It started promising. Great set up with an equestrian club, a single father and nanny romance, even the evil bitchiness was not directed to our main leads which I was enjoying. But then it went sort of train wreck. A whole lot of nonsense with an over-the-top spoiled evil woman allowed everything and anything over and over again. The hysteria of that family and the amount of trauma they must have induced in that child is so over the top LOL. The ML went from an easy-going and kind nature into a nonsensical mode just for the sake of creating angst since the romance was going pretty well early in the drama. In the last arch, after the evil bitch went abroad, the angsty romance from the 4 main characters was sort of rescued. My frustration is that it could have been so good since the plot was unusual and interesting, but the delivery and poor character development of the father and nanny couple were some of a disappointment. Having said that, I noticed that people in the comment section enjoyed the drama and I get why since it also kept me interested enough (used fast-forward though) to go till the end. So if you like the genre, I would say go for the plot, mute when the clown characters are in scene, and laugh when the nonsense is so much that laughing is about the only thing we can do.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

Starts nice go bad in the middle
the synopsis is wrong, Kittiput doesn't start to have feelings for Wee, they are just good friends.We have Parit & his adorable cutie pie daughter Pie. (she steals the show)
Wee is an independent girl from a family who owns the school Pie attends. Wee likes horse riding and her aim is winning competitions, she pretends to be her best friend Soda and apply to work for Parit's house as a nanny. Her true ID comes out but that doesn't stop her working as Pie's nanny.
Pie is the matchmaker for her dad & Wee. She cheered for their relationship.
In the middle we start to learn some truths Pie is not Parit's bio daughter but Pie is her older sister's daughter to save her face Kit registered her on his name.
At the he was dating Da and she breaks up from him without giving him a chance to explain things. (she thought he cheated on her and had Pie from another girl) unfortunately her actions doesn't change.
When Parit's sister returns back she starts playing games, she told Kit that he's the bio father of Pie. at the time they were dating so when she told him this he didn't question and Da also leaves Kit goes back to Parit,
Parit leaves Wee without any explanation.
we got to learn that Pie's that is not Kit either.
The singer who sings the OST bleed my ears
kisses in betw Parit & Wee is close to 0
however we have some fake kisses in between Kit & Da
Aom Sushar, Peter Denman pairing was not that bad. Aom is petite so she doesn't show her age like Kimmy & Yaya and the others who are broad girls.
Hats of to M once again, he can get into any character..
Let me know if you know the name of the child actress who portrayed Pie in the lakorn, she is such a cute girl

Clearly kissing is banned in this lakorn, because we can't see it with any couple, present or flashback. It has fast progress of relationship in between the characters though, no wonder it's 10 episodes only. Somehow Saimai & Puen couple isn't exciting at all, despite them having their almost-kiss in every episode. Peter & Aom couple has huge age gap. The child is needed actually to save it somehow. Still this couple has more life to it.
After the past of all characters got explained, I settled in and cheered mainly for the Peter & Aom couple, not only as lovers but also best set of parents for the little girl. I especially cheered for Peter Denman's character and his "papa giraffe" to be the little girl's dad. Denman, youngest member of the main cast, was able to portray warmth and maturity which was pleasant to watch. He was actually more credible than Aom Sushar's thirty year old pixie.
As the other review pointed out, since episode 7 it all kind of crumbled. The characters including the nicely mature ones went petty for the sake of bringing more drama, which made me wish instead for peace and quiet, for the little child. Overall I really wasn't enjoying the "progress" the characters made. Somehow, everyone became less likeable, of course the little girl's mom ("evil spoiled bitch") acted the worst because her character got also unhinged by the scriptwriter to go too far with the little kid, else she was pitiable more than anything else, and by the way she was the prettiest woman around (the usual rule "the prettiest actress = nang'ek" did not apply in this show) so I kind of wished her to repent and get happy ending instead of just leave. Never mind. If they made everyone an asshole just for the sake of romantic angst, they should have added kiss, though. A good one. Not a forced fake thing to uglify this drama. Also, I obviously felt they put the little girl through too much... Hopefully, at least the child actress had a good experience shooting the drama.
Episode 8 added yet one more bizarre twist that made no sense and divided all characters into 2 battle groups (it's a custody battle for a little girl who doesn't remember her dad, but remembers her nanny). Her naughty mom doesn't get her happy ending. In fact no one does, the only thing we get to see is someone proposes to someone but it's not a couple that one would cheer for before this episode. Episode 9 the general situation calms down. Things are more or less back to how they originally were, only now everyone has a broken heart. So that was probably the only purpose.
Of course there is a "big action final" in the end and Peter Denman kisses the right girl on her oxygen mask, lol. It's so bad it's funny. It's clear they didn't know what to do with the ending, but they managed to squeeze some really hilarious moments into it (those were unrelated to the main plot). There is a happy ending on a beach of course, but the main guy suddenly started wearing glasses so that the audience could see there was a further barier in that final kiss, to forgive how it looked. Looked like the cast was also glad this was 10 episodes only. I won't even mention the death-embarassing "catholic" (aren't they all buddhists?) wedding with the english speaking priest and english spoken wows recited by the asian groom & bride, who both then posed for a camera not-kiss. Yeah, I was also glad it was ending.
