Underrated Drama!! I recommend it!!

This was a good drama. Though the plot line was just cliché like many other thai lakhorns, it was really entertaining and engaging. There are various factors that I liked and did not like about this drama. But overall, it was really good and great to watch.

Story:

It is the usual revenge drama. FL uses the ML to get her revenge. But there is no rape/non-con. The ML is not a brute who forces himself on her, he is instead a sensitive and caring guy. There is only one scene where he kisses her to shut her up and she slaps him. He immediately tells sorry after that as well. I loved the non-toxic relationship between the leads. There were various elements that I loved and kept me on toes. Her battle with her own aunt and cousin to get back her parents company on one side and other side had an entirely different villain who was the ML's father who's dirty secrets FL used to blackmail the ML into marrying her.

I loved that our ML was very strong and independent and had so many people around her that she could trust. I loved that our ML did not really swoop in to save her or help her in her own battle with her aunt and cousin. The FL's fight to get back her company was her own and the ML does not even know much about it for most of the plot. She marries him to have an income from the alimony and a place to stay. She needed a steady rock to begin and he became one even though it was a marriage cuz of blackmail.

Our ML on the other hand is crushed and sad to know his father's true colors but still loves him very much. Our ML's battle is mostly with himself, about his morality and his love for his father despite everything. Sure there were scenes where he became the knight in shining armor and saved our FL from kidnapping and murder and so on. But mostly they had their own fights while still falling in love with each other through the journey.

The story was well done. The villains were good. The character Jan was diagnosed with borderline personality disorder and it was at least a good reason for her extreme reactions and behavior, unlike other female villains who are simply loud and boisterous and always shouting just to be a villain. Jan's character was shown to be like that cuz of her mental illness. All the other villains were comparatively toned down. what I did not like was the too much death in the drama. Like almost all the villains die. I feel like killing off Jan's character was unnecessary.

But the slow budding love between our leads was really nice and exciting to watch. It was really good. Our ML was smitten by our FL from the beginning but sees her differently when she blackmails him into marriage and then once again proceeds to eb smitten and fall in love. Neither the ML or the FL was stupid. They were clever and dealt with their problems well. The ML was very open with his love for our FL. Sure what is a drama without a misunderstanding? There is a small misunderstanding and the doubt of infidelity to the last few episodes but that gets cleared up too.


Acting:

The chemistry was fire!!!!!! Both of them were so good with each other. They make an excellent couple. Everyone was really good at portraying their own characters, including the villains. I really liked it.

I don't really rewatch much, but I would surely comeback for the burning chemistry and sweet moments.

Overall it was a very good drama and I feel like it is really underrated. I really recommend it to everyone who likes revenge plot and secret marriages. I had first hesitated to watch it, but I am so freaking glad I did. Please do watch it!
