Lakorns for Beginners

If you are planning on venturing out to Thai dramas, best known as Lakorns, but is afraid of picking up a shown and starting it then here's a little nudge from me to you. For me, these are among the best lakorns to start with and also those that I have watched. Be aware that there may be some sensitive contents, as a lot of lakorns do but don't be discouraged as they have good plots and they are really almost always resolved. 

So, let's get started!

    Your typical run on the mill contract marriage stories. If you like dramas where the male lead falls in love first then this is your thing. This is also not that heavy and the female lead is not annoying towards the male lead. I enjoyed this one greatly.

    Oh, I just love James and Bella. Their chemistry here is great and the story although at times draggy was not difficult to watch. 

  • Kiss Me

    5. Kiss Me

    One of the best remakes of Itazura na Kiss, hands down.

    Revenge turned to love. This is one of the best for me. I enjoyed the pairing truly. I also love Mark Prin a lot.

    I liked this one because of Sean and Esther. They have amazing chemistry and when you get past some of the man-handling, it's a worth it story. 

  • Leh Ruk Bussaba

    I truly enjoyed this one. The chemistry was on point and Mike was such a delight to watch. The story wasn't as heavy and there are some conflicts near the end that are quite unnecessary. If I could change anything, I'd probably re-write the flow of the finale episode but nonetheless I enjoyed it.

  • Marn Bang Jai

    I like age gap stories that's why this hit the spot just right.

    I loved this drama from the get go. It was not that difficult to watch and the leads have good chemistry. I like Ken and Toey!

    11. My Husband in Law

    Thai Drama - 2020, 15 episodes

    This one, I started because of Mark Prin. I have always liked these kinds of stories, those that start off with one-sided love and then eventually you know, they get love. The leads are playful with each other and have great chemistry. 

  • Ngao Asoke

    Again, Sean and Esther. But I liked this story. It's quite messy in the beginning but you'll love the leads and how they play their characters. 

  • Padiwaradda

    It's a really good love story. The leads get to develop love slowly yet beautifully. There is however a very irritating ex-lover that will lurk and try to destroy the leads' relationship.

    If you love James Ji then you should watch this. The story is interesting too and it'll really keep you guessing at all times. Plus James is such a knight in shining armor here.

    One of my first lakorns, I love the transformation and growth of Joo (Female Lead). It makes you value the people around you who stayed when you were at your lowest. It also kinda says that how you look like does not define you.

    I enjoyed this one a lot, I got an LQ version but it didn't stop me to enjoy it. The chemistry is great, the development is great, the drama is not so heavy. I put this off a couple of times and I am glad that I came around to watching it. You'll surely enjoy this a whole lot of you like cliche dramas.
