Strong relationship building and great chemistry between ML & FL, live up to reviews
I am impressed. I was completely unprepared for how good this was. With one of the smartest ML ever written in lakorn land. FL is not a pushover (quite the opposite) and has character development. We may not agree with her methods regarding her younger sister but placed in her shoes, we can see why she took those actions.In this lakorn, many characters are well-written and multi-faceted. Typically for many lakorns I will play at 1.20-1.5s speed when its not featuring the ML & FL especially as the episodes progress. But I found myself slowing down to 1x speed for almost the entire episode after Ep11 because the events were griping enough that I didn't want to speed through it. Almost never happen unless its a small handful of the top lakorns for me. Although its true the last 2 episodes felt tagged on and unnecessary (easily condensed into 1 episode instead).
This is my first Mik Thongraya lakorn, now I understand his appeal.

Progressively disappointing ML character development, what a let down
I watched till Ep 10-11 when I realised why this show didn't score higher than 7.5. Felt like giving the ML a few good tight slaps up and down, made me so mad. Even Kitkong's dimples couldn't save the ML character.I almost dropped the show at the SECOND LAST EPISODE because of what the ML character did. I had thought I only had 2 major triggers for ML characters - infidelity and beating up the FL but gosh, I discovered a third trigger, which is what this ML did in Ep 15. I had a friend who was potentially facing the same situation (in her case, her husband cheated for real) and I could feel her anxiety regarding her child.
Forcing myself to finish to show. Omg this ML pissed me off me big time, what a jerk. After 35 lakorns with a lot of slap kiss dramas, this ML character is on my list of the top 3 most disappointing ones.
To be fair there are probably only a couple of actors (Ken Theeradej, Pong Nawat, Mik thongraya) who can carry off this ML character without me wanting to punch his lights out.

Most adorable and charming ML & FL in lakorn land! This couple is screen gold!
I watched the show solely for the adorable interaction and SIZZLING chemistry between the ML & FL. I am not a huge fan of mafia/police/rural based dramas so I may not have continued if not for the ML & FL. But the main leads lit up the screen every time they are together, whoooaaaaaa they are ON FIRE!!!!!!! They totally carried the show from start to end! The skinship was temperature-raising with real kisses, the dialogue between the ML & FL well-written, the actors felt so natural together and acted their roles soooo well that I even began to suspect if they had a real life relationship during the filming lol - a pleasure to have a lakorn where the screenplay and main leads did justice to one another!! The stars aligned for this one! <3 <3(A quick aside - the last time I had wondered about a screen couple was Hyun Bin's reaction in a particular love scene in CLOY. This was before I know of the rumours of their relationship. Later, I discovered many other viewers spotted what I had spotted:)
Btw I have never watched either main lead actors before this drama, so I was unbiased and now I am a fan. I came to this series recently from Jark Sadtroo Soo Hua Jai. Both Suparburoot Jorm Jon: Maturot Lohgan and Jark Sadtroo Soo Hua Jai have wonderful MLs that would do anything for their FLs; both male leads are extremely intelligent, drop-dead gorgeous, capable and would lay down their lives for the FLs. Both MLs came from the wrong side of the law yet are not morally dubious (at least in my books). Frankly it is a relief to have respite from stupid MLs in lakornland.

Very slow development, all the good bits in the latter episodes
Believe the reviewer who said first half of this show is draggy. I must be one of the few handfuls who felt badly let down after the number of enthusiastic reviews. It is a pity because the storyline was interesting while the acting from the two male leads was good.My main issue is that none of the characters were emotionally engaged enough with each partner, or the audience until very late in the series (after Ep13 for me). I blame the scriptwriters for this unbalanced emotional development and depth. So bad that I FF'ed at high speed until Ep 11 (seriously wanted to drop it). As many reviewers have mentioned, the FL Jinny is indeed the character who was the most emotionally available AND STILL I found her to be loud and annoying until after Ep 7 when she cried ( after this episode she gradually stopped yelling like an auntie vegetable seller from the market).
The 2nd FL by actress Bua was an unengaging character for the bulk of the show - she wasn't hateful but she wasn't particularly relatable/appealing either, even after the emotional events in Ep13 (Ep13 did more for the flawed 2nd ML than for her tbh). I can sympathise with her situation rationally but not emotionally. You have to wait until the last couple of episodes to feel something for the 2nd FL. Again this was how her character was written.
Only 7.5/10 for me. A pity because this show could have easily done better to reach a 8.5 or 9. Watch if you are a fan of the main leads or don't mind a VERY slow "start". P.S/ If there is any consolation, the last few episodes were great and the ending, for once in a lakorn, is not rushed and properly fleshed out.

Entertaining lakorn, likeable FL (Bella) and ML (Mark)
Very easy lakorn to watch. No crazy scheming evil sister/MIL for once, no exasperatingly stupid characters, ML and FL are not morally dubious. The scenes with the long-suffering monk are HILARIOUS ^-^Good chemistry between Bella and Mark! Although I think Bella and Pope in Love Destiny, and Mark and Yaya in Kleun Cheewit are slightly better pairings with respect to their visual chemistry.
Spoiler alert
In my opinion, the surprise 2ML is actually Chief Songkran :D Who won't want a devoted guy like that! Having said this, I should do some reflection of my own 😂

Summary: Housework on an island and life on a pearl farm
If revenge lakorns based on house chores on an island setting aren't your thing, I would suggest to skip this. The FL shrieks of anger were more irritating than feisty, and nor I am a fan of the ML Athichart. So that was three strikes for me against this lakorn. It was incredibly boring and draggy to watch indentured labour over and over again. For this genre, Game Payabaht (2017) did it better. Probably because Game Payabaht's story didn't consist only of the island setting. The FL and ML were more appealing too.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
