"Updated Review - 28/05/2024

This lakorn is one where the more you watch, the more you notice the red flags.

Ramin is not the only issue here.

The first problem lies with Nita, the ambassador’s wife. Despite being in her 70s, perhaps even older, she lacks self-confidence. She becomes jealous when her husband shows attention to Wayoon and refuses to accept his explanations. This leads her to confide in Ramin’s aunt, a woman who places great importance on social class and marrying within one’s class. She already has her own issues. Influenced by the ambassador’s wife, she develops a dislike for Wayoon without even meeting her. She employs housemaids, drivers, and other women to whom she provides scholarships to follow and stalk Wayoon and Ramin. They harass Wayoon, making her life miserable. They gossip about her, labeling her as a woman who seeks out and sleeps with any man who has money. They even believe she had a relationship with Nicolai.

You’ll find yourself angry with Wayoon because she forgives Ramin too easily. That man did not deserve a second chance.

You’ll be left with second lead syndrome, as Nicolai was the only honest man in her life. He loved her unconditionally, took care of her, and even a baby who was not his.

It goes without saying that Nicolai deserved his own happy ending, with or without Wayoon. Ramin, on the other hand, needed to suffer a bit more and face the consequences of his actions. He believed his aunt over the woman he loves and was never a supportive boyfriend anyway.

below the stars is my original review
*************************************************************************************************************************************

It's been couple of weeks since I've finished this lakorn, I'm still humming Rak-Rae, it constant;y non stop playing on my mind.

This is not a revenge drama but it has slap kiss,

I cried a lot while watching this lakorn..

Ramin our main guy is handsome, hot secretary of Thai Ambassador of Austria, Ramin is attracted to Wayun since he first saw her before they've been introduced formally, Wayun is studying to be a simultaneous translator for UN.

They eventually fall in love Wayun falls pregnant and Ramin tells her, they're not ready to be parents, he offers her money with the influence of his aunt who's like his mother.

Ramin thinks Wayun had an abortion, he doesn't learn the truth until the very end and that's through his friend's gf, his friend's gf tells him if you see the baby you'll understand that there's no need for a DNA test.

And we have Nicolai a russian student also studying to be translator for UN also happens to love Wayun, unlike Ramin, Nicolai was always there for her whenever she needed, from day one to up to the end.

Some ppl find this lakorn boring but for me it was not boring, this one is one of the rare lakorns I've not skipped a scene.

Yes there are / were annoying characters, and you murmur hello wo the hell are you that you're putting your nose into a couple's relationship, business? if you can't turn a man to yourself it means he doesn't want you, move on,

I don't know how they find a baby that looks like both Pancake & Aom..

Needless to say Aom was as a hot as his usual self lol.

If I were Wayoon I'd never turn back and accept Ramin, I'd chose Nicolai a man who was with me all the time, who was looking after the baby not even related to him, while both working & studying, who was feeding, changing, bathing my baby, who was looking after me when I am sick..

who was renting me a flat a bigger one at a nicer area, just to be sure that I'm and my baby is safe.

But what does our girl do goes and accepts his apology to live happily ever after..

Nicolai could have easily given those to her, I used to think like the lakorn ladies before forgiving, accepting bla bla but now I think different. No matter how much you love a man, if a man is not man enough to be on your side, that love slowly dies, it never dies completely but it open your eyes.

One of the scenes that I cried when Nicolai gave his mother's ring to Wayun and giving back to the Ring as a necklace to baby Lila, it means he's not gonna love anyone like Wayun..

I also loved the beautiful scenery of Austria, Vienna , Salzburg, It just reminded me the Sissy Movies I've watched, pitty that they no longer show it on TV, the only option is buying the DVDs..

**** CONTAINS SPOILERS *************

Grate is such an eye candy that I can't resist watching his lakorns :))) fangirling :D Yes the main lady is a bit annoying but Ameena was much more annoying. I don't like slug type of ladies and she's a slug here, like a flea.. I loved how realistic this lakorn is, Chin has got behaviour / anger problems, he also had drinking problems but after he made an accident that left his mother's neck injured he stops drinking, his mother is giving him advice to use his brain to solve problems don't look for alcohol to solve problems, we learn a lot about rubber plantation, we see that Chin goes to group therapy to solve his anger management, it can be considered as AA for anger management. Main girl changes from spoiled brat to an understanding not giving, thoughtful woman, 2nd lead San who stole Chanika's bf with lying to both sides, goes into depression and kills herself, the problem is Mint always plays the evil lady I think except one with Mark Prin, it's going to be hard to accept her as a good main lady if she ever plays the good character.. I also loved how Chanika fall in love with Chin. It didn't happen in one night, but at the end she fell in love with her husband and learned to trust her husband. And for a change a man who's willing to change for the woman he loves, not expecting her to change for him, in a way she has changed she's not the girl she was when she started to work for her husband, so unknowingly she has changed, he changed her in a good way, now he's ready to change for the woman he loves. Grate has a lovely smile whoever is the script write must know his gorgeous smile, they're using Chanika to tell in this lakorn how good his smile is and how he rarely uses it :D. Chin is also a man with a good heart, he changed his father in law's urine bag, tbh I don't I'd have done it, changing someone's urine bag, that's not blood related. But he has anger issues, he's like a walking bomb ready to explode any time. A moral message here, it's been given over San, if you take something - someone doesn't belong to you someone will come and take it from you. If you break a family - relationship you'll never have your own.. I'm giving the most evil lady award to Ameena, she's jumping to one man to another another man.. Proper gold digger.. She tried every single man to see who she can get.. At least Chin was not a type of a guy who'd fall into Ameena's traps. He was strong on that side. Well both husband and wife is temperamental, I admit Chin is worse but Chanika is also temperamental, I guess this temperamental & jealousy thing runs in the family, as San is also an extreme side, I don't really blame San, as there is Sin who's trying to get her bf, she took her best friend's bf so she sort of knows how your loved one can slip off from your hands on the hands of another woman. Chin's mom given him the biggest punishment by telling him that his wife had a miscarriage, while she didn't had one, it was for him to change his behaviours, not to be this temperamental. I love the mothers in this lakorn, Chin's mother was so against Chanika but when she realised that she's not a bad woman, she accepted her, and she supported her daughter in law, Ameena admitted to her mother that she's not pregnant with Pat, she doesn't know who the father of her baby. ( umm it's not my business but you're a grown up lady why didn't you use protection, perils of unprotected sex lol) when San killed herself she was pregnant with Pan.Chin is upset by his behaviours he still thinks he is responsible from the death of his unborn baby. His mother is also no longer soft and forgiving towards him. We can't really call this a slap kiss drama, as our lady never resists to his kisses , he was on her lips whenever he finds a chance, for him he's doing it to punish her lol :D ahahh yes yes dear you do it to punish her. Tong was sharp he understood that Chanika didn't have a miscarriage

At least on the funeral she admitted in front of everyone that She's not pregnant with Pan, she only used his name to find a father to the baby in her stomach, she and her mother been asked to leave and never come back.

I love how they use Karma in Thai lakorns, I believe in Karma..

We also had a chance to learn that Chin didn’t rape Siri, she had leukaemia, and she was in love with him, when he didn’t respond to her love she blamed Chin and killed herself.


I can't say I liked the OST, it was not as great as on the other lakorns, I was expecting a better one but it was not interesting.

This drama is for the one who are patient. If you don't get nervous and angry quickly this drama is perfect for you, because it really tests your patience.

Rome plays the playboy Kongkai let me tell you haven't see yet such a horny male lead in any of the dramas I have watched,

He is on duty for.. you know what. He jumps from his mistress's bed to his wife's bed.

He's stupid enough not to see the true colours of his mistress Na Prungchat portrayed by Songkhla Pornchita let me tell you she does such a great job that you end up hating the girl.

Prungchat is the daughter of a rich family, she's a model, her makeup is always bright, I believe they chose bright colours on her lips as her lips looks bigger with bright colours. She has never been loved, so clings on men.

Arunprapai potrayed by Hargate Araya Alberta, she's bright, beautiful have a successful career, she marries Kongkai out of love, as her bf impregnated a girl and for him to do the right thing she marries Kongkai, at first there was no love, but they eventually fall in love.

Though it took Kongkai such a long time to understand that he loves Aru, but it didn't stopped him seeing that ugly mistress.

Mistress has done everything in the book to trap Kongai, each time she got him back, and when he finally said he loves his wife, she used the pregnancy lie, to get him and she was nearly successful, whereas his wife is actually pregnant and kept it secret

We do have an annoying maid, a messenger of the mistress, her inside info about Kongai, and she also learns her lesson from her.

We have such a loving & caring mother in law, the other maid, she was loving and caring, she's the mother of the annoying maid...

We have a family lawyer, he helped Kongai w/o all the time for him to give the right decision

Things go pretty slow in this drama, we don't get to see romance in each episode.

But the ones who are patient enough get to see the happy ending.

If I were the wife in the lakorn, most possibly I'd have already kicked his unfaithful ass..

Oh but she's so caring, loving, giving, that she did not do anything to hubby and that cheap mistress.

If not I'd have asked him to get tested for STD / STI .. I mean it doesn't even happen in western dramas, let alone expecting to see it in an Asian Drama is a bit nonsense but I'm only expressing my opinions

You can call me mad, mental but I cried so much when Prungchat became a nun and when Kongkai, Arunprapai and the gay friend visited her after she became a nun

PUNGCHAT becomes a nun after her husband got killed by his own mother.

The temple scene was intense & emotional

If you are familiar to K-C-TW dramas and if you are new to lakorns you'll notice that lakorns are totally different from K-C-TW dramas.. But you'll find them as addictive as them. They don't have a high budget like them but they are not that bad.


Anusaniya ( Kimberley) is the rich girl, Sattawat is a doctor, his mother has got gambling problems, Anusaniya's uncle is in love with her, Sattawat's mother & Anusaniya's aunt in a way arranged them to marry, the dad agrees so they got married without love. As in any drama we do have distrubing characters. Somika was previously with Anusaniya's uncle but he breaks up from her for Anusaniya, this time she goes to Sattawat, she announces her love to him, but the doc has no feelings, Doc has a crush on Anusaniya since he saved her from drawning. It's for sure that Kimberley is a great actress but this type of characters sort of stick on her, she's always the rich, snob girl, though Doctor is not poor but not a chaebol.

They do have on screen chemistry with James. Just like on her previous drama we'll watch her development as she develops she'll realise that she loves Satawat.

Sonika is sometimes going overboard so her character was written excessive, she's a type of stalker
Keep pestering Sattawat. Annusya's bro pregnantes a girl, and she also hate her and she wants her baby to be the only heir of the family, that's what we know until later episodes. It's sort of like Brazilian Soap Operas.


Mirantee is a reporter but also Anusaniya's school friend, she had doubts that Anusaniya would ever recognise her, but yet she has not only recognised her and her name, she also recognised that she helped her when her heel was broken, after that incident Mirante started to help Anusiya.

Their bond got better. Mirante is also in love with the uncle. The actor who plays the uncle Pop Thagoon Karnthip is also quite handsome :))

When he had a accident Mirante was the one who was crying by his bedside. Sonika is the one who's responsible from all bad things happening to Annusiya's family and people around her, it is just jealousy turning into a mad hatter.

Anusaniya's brother's girlf also uses Sonika's addiction obsession on Satawat to hit Anusaniya, but Sonika is the idiot letting people to use her.

There's everything you are looking for, love, romance, action ( not that sort of action but still) kidnapping, cat fight..

At the end we see that uncle understands who he really loves :)

Our couple still pulling each other's hair, it's their way of showing love, aggressive couple. Doc is romantic soft hearted but our girl is bitchy.

Not only the uncle and doc is handsome here, the guy who plays the owner of the furniture company is also hot

Well doc have been doing wrong all the time, while he could silence his wife with a lovely kiss :D

What can I say!! A lakorn without slap kiss / rape / drama cliches .. plus Barry & Yaya

DO I NEED TO ASK FOR MORE??

It's a romantic comedy.

Grandma Daeng has got few kids but none of them wanted to work in the farm all got married and left their mother, Grandma Daeng lives with Darunee, her right hand house maid Aunt Kae and her daughter in the house, she has got farm workers


Ahit grandma's grandson, Ahit's dad stole money from his mother and ran off from home, Ahit is an agriculturist, he doesn't want to do a governmental job and he wants to work in a farm,but his dad is not that rich and he doesn't have a big land for his son to work,

He writes a letter to his mother and explains the situation , grandma accepts him..


Duranee & Ahit's path crossed in a traffic accident, Duranaee accidentally hit Ahit, after learning that he's grandma's grandson they start to bicker, D is afraid of losing grandma ( actually she's grandma's sister, grandma's dad pregnanted D mother and left her while her ma was pregnant, so grandma adopted D)


A does a great job at the farm, he made a mistake by growing the Cavendish Banana in his farm for selling. He didn't know that this kind of banana is seeded and inedible. When Darunee knew it, she wanted to tease him, so she didn't tell him that this kind of banana is useless and inedible. She also told all workers not to tell Athit because she wanted to humiliate him later.

Athit felt shame, very hurt and lonely in the strange land, so he went out to drink and got drunk. When he woke up, he found that he made a slip to Thongprasri, the grocery's daughter. He woke up in her room and she cried that he raped her. ( please keep in my mind that this drama doesn't have rape involved)

Duranee goes to Bangkok to study she became more mature, after grandma's death she has none left except Ahit, Duranee invies her friend to the farm, as she previously met Ahit and was in love with him.


D & A cousin is sort of in love with D, as a result of his mother's pressure.

D&A are in love with each other but it takes some reinforcement outside supporters to help them secretly for them to understand their feelings towards each other.

Yes sometimes you do want to pull out to tear your hair while watching, as these always misunderstand each other when it comes to love. :))

This is going to be a spoiler :)) but can't help it they'll confess their feelings to each other after auntie spiked their orange juice.

even some of Thongprasri scenes, some of her family's scenes were funny.

Yes it's a Happy Ending

I'm a great fan of Rome, I love his lakorns, Matt is one of my favourite Thai actress after Kimmy, Yaya & Ester. It was funny but also a bit dragging, Rome did such a great job portraying a straight guy and also a gay guy the same time lol, I laughed so much when he covered his bits with a pillow, poor Lookjun she doesn't know Pete & Paul had switched places lol until the very end. They have such a great on screen chemistry, I enjoy seeing Matt portraying a little crazy girls, the girl she portrays in the lakorn is laid back, relaxed, who loves her pampering, she is an editor in a women's monthly magazine, and we see her loving her makeup, skincare and as Pete being gay she's doing these with Pete, Pete is like her bff.

Where as Paul has a different personality lol, let's say ugly duckling turns into a swan after swapping places with his twin, it's hard for Paul as a straight man living together being in close skinship with a beautiful woman.

it's quite funny, it has got romance, everything except revenge, slap kiss & rape. :)

The things is the plot is a bit slow.

This was such a cute romantic drama, it's full of misunderstandings "which is a must" for all Asian Dramas..

Slap Kiss
Crazy Ex
Mother In Laws
Misunderstandings
Another g / b having a crush on the same girl.
Jealousy
arranged marriages
fake marriages


I loved the secretary, his suits lol.. Colourful like Versace style :) I love the little brother Dong Goo, but even his half sister was not really looking after him, he was always with Hyun Tae, like Hyun Tae is his half brother or dad. Needless to say Dong Goo is the cutest little Actor.

Yoo Mi is ashamed of her mother, she was an erotic star (well I 'm watching a Thai Drama, main lady's mother was a prostitute mother is married to main guy's dad and the daughter is not ashamed of her mother, I don't know which is more acceptable, I think I'd feel the same if I was in Yoo Mi's shoes )

The problem with this drama was it was extremely slow, they don't get to anywhere. She's ashamed of her mother, her half brother..

When it comes to the cast Song Ji Eun is a perfect choice for Yoo Mi, as she looks innocent
Sung Hoon is and always be a perfect match for rich, handsome, casanova playboy looking but on the inside it's extremely the opposite chaebol.

Mother hhaah I can't find words to describe the mother Nam Gi Ae she is another actress that is a perfect fit for this type of mother. I believe I have seen her at least in the 6 of dramas I have watched in the last couple of years, maybe more..

I expected to see a little more of their love Jin Wook & Jin Eun, at least I wanted to see getting married but nay...

Until the Secretary meets the kitchen girl tbh I thought he's gay!!

ep 11-12-13 not worth of watching, if you wanna know how it ends although it is not gonna make you happy just watch ep 14 and that's it.

We have not seen why Jin Wook mother left we have not seen him taking Yoo Mi to his mother, or even both of them going to his mother's restaurant. We have not seen much of mother son time.

For a bit I thought Yo Mi's ma gonna flirt and hook Jin Wook's dad but I was wrong but if they made that way it way it'd be quite funny though.

The music was good.

I so wished that the lil bro was their secret love child but he's half bro :((

there are loads of incomplete things wish they make S02 for us.

One of the rare down to earth lakorns.  

I honestly admired RIn,  she was very patience, caring, loving, and her skills, she cooks, cleans, she plants, make perfumes. I don't think that I have got half of her skills as a wife.   She protected her calmness when her husband's ex-gf suddenly came to destroy her wedding.  She endured her even after getting married.

I loved the advice the mother give to her daughters. " Do you think marriage is like fairy tales that you read in book"  & about a heart can change.  

Saran's ma advices to her son...     " Love is like pen & paper " " Spoon & Fork"  you can love / marry  someone out of your circle ( matching-suitor- someone richer - poorer- different culture-beliefs-religion etc ) but this may not always work.  (this type of relationships)

Saran & Ri they slowly fall in love,  Although I'm against arranged marriages, but arranged marriages still exists and not all ends up like Saran & Ri's.

When you fall in love slowly, you learn to respect, but when you marry someone you already know / in love, after a while you lose that spark,  

This lakorn is set in 1950's and you can that vibe from the music, outfit, cars & surroundings. I really really enjoyed the OST,  it was pleasant almost very relaxing.

Also we have Villains called White Tiger,  who uses black magic, now this is not everyone's cup of tea for me it's the power of the words. Believing into something  too much and making  it real.

She has two younger sisters, One gets married after her but her marriage crumbles down in a short time. Saran's friend is wooing Rin's little sister, she's the only clever one after Rin.  

Sisters  don't get much screen time.  I totally recommend it. It's not your usual lakorn

No matter what I love the connection between three sisters,  we only see the two of them arguing it's Rin & the middle sister, that's because  Saran refused to help her husband on his illegal rice exporting business,  (that reminded me something very  similar happened in my family when my mother was still a child funny enough in the 1950's like in this lakorn.   All three of them were protective of each other, none of the other sisters made Ri felt like she's adopted,  but she always slept with the maid, until Saran's friend starts to investigate.  Her story sort of reminded me of Cinderella, how she was doing all the housework while her step  sisters are   socializing.
She hopes that her husband will be back and take her so they can continue to live together but the end all she got is a failure from her husband.

Ri's story towards the end may surprise you

I love how both mothers were good towards Rin, except the bitchy ex & stupid White Tiger everything is all ok.

If you find the ex gf annoying like me, just wait through the end she's gonna get a nice slap by Rin's sister.  

What I love about Korean, Chinese - Thai Dramas they use karma ..  being quite spiritual myself I believe in karma.

Fasten your seatbelts and prepare for a long nerve wrecking journey.

We generally have a selfish, nars male lead but here it's quite the opposite. On screen chemistry between Bie & Esther is always great but this time Esther playing a girl who is so down to earth and a woman who doesn't believe in destiny.

This is a very very twisted drama, I mean you're gonna see most of the things we see in Western Dramas.

This is my 4th lakorn so far so good, as I understand Thai people are a little bit less conservative comparing to Koreans & Chinese.

It's still a boo boo to make a kid out of wedlock, but it's understandable and I also support that ideology.as a child needs both father and a mother

We see a woman Karat who had 3 unsuccessful marriages both cheated on her and died.

Her late 3rd husband not only had an affair and impregnate her childhood friend but he had cheated on her with several other women as well.

Karat learns that her husband impregnated her best friend after her husband's funeral. When she learnt that her husband died she rushes to hospital but she had a traffic accident, she stops a car that happens to be Pisut's car, after Pisut took her to hospital she says I don't like owing to ppl, she gives him her wedding ring, During the funeral Karat goes into a very bad mental-psychological state, she tries to kill herself and rescued by Pisut, She already previously saw Pisut on that day while she was on an event, and her best friend was with her, (Sai Nampeung) Nampeung sees Pisut and gives him a look and that moment is very important because that single scene is giving a lot of hints of about the upcoming episodes the relationship between Karat, Pisut and herself..

This already made 3 in a day....

Later on their path Karat & Pisut crosses a couple of more times and Pisut saves Karat a couple of more times :) this only happens in dramas both bumping into the same guy a couple of times in a day and both being saved by the same guy a couple of more times.

Karat is a rich, spoiled woman and she has got insecurities because of her previous experiences.
However Nampeung is quite the opposite she was always jealous of her friend who was always good to her, she's jealous of her friends wealth & lifestyle and at the end she snatches her husband and falls pregnant, after the guy's death, she finds the guy's mother and break the pregnancy news, but the mother says you're own your own, he already have a legal wife who's here sitting, and my son never wanted to have kids.. So she had a slap from that side..

She's still not over anything this time she tries to steal Pisut from Karat and play all the dirty tricks in the book, but Pisut is in love with his wife, he mentions a couple of times that he sees her as a colleague nothing more than this could happen in between them.

Karat might have insecurities but she's a strong woman, she's honest, she has a child like personality when showing love, she's jealous of her husband, ( any woman would, especially the one's that have bad experience would be more, as they'd be scared what if the history repeats itself)

Actually Karat has got 2 more sisters, one of them is a doctor, both sisters are beautiful.

Their mother always accuses their dad of having an affair with Pisut's mother. i believe that's why Karat is like that, her mother's influence.

Nampeung doesn't only try to pursue Pisut, she also have an affair with Siwa a rich, careless chaebol, he is the fiance of the doctor sister.

Nampeung does her best to fool Karat that her husband is having an affair with her..

Nampeung spends all her time chasing for men, instead of looking after her child

The maid is one of the characters I love in this drama, After Karat got married she moved into Pisut & Karat's house, she is more than a maid, she does what a best friend does for Karat.

Nampeung manages to create big marital problem between Karat & Pisut.

Nampeung as being the mistress of Siwa she leaves her lipstick on Siwa's car so that doctor fiance would find and breaks up from him.

But let me tell you this Siwa is not like Pisut, he can easily tell fck off to Nampeung, after the lipstick ( incase if you are wondering that Lipstick is Yves Saint Laurent 'Rouge Volupté Pink in Paris that's one of the best selling shade)

the thing is Nampeung have hopes of snatching a rich handsome husband whether he's single or married.

( moral story easy comes easy goes)

Kasat genuinely loves her husband.

Siwa proposes to doc sister with his deceased mothers wedding ring..

Nampeung is seriously gone mental after the death of the ex-husband of Karat. She needs to be shut into an institution. She is basically a mistress and not giving up on this, as for Siwa a person with a set habit won't change it... His father had many women so he takes his dad as an example

Other than Karat's ma it's always Pisut's ma trying to help them, unlike the other dramas she's not the evil one here..

The thing is Pisut is an idiot guy, how can he be so blind to the games of a simple town bike.

At the end Nampeung fell pregnant from Siwa and got rejected by him, this is the 2nd guy who rejects her, she is not a loveable person so I don't feel sorry about her but she goes and tells Pasat that she's pregnant from her husband and as a proof she shows her his jacket.. If I were Pasat I'd either kill that woman or kill my husband bec that's too much any woman would go crazy, she caused another marital problems in between Pisut and Karat, and they got divorced, Nampeung goes to Siwa's houses announces herself as his new wife, poor mother is shocked and disgusted. ofcourse a woman like her won't stop just pretending that she's pregnant from Pisut,

During this time Pisut really missed Pasat, and she moved into Pisut's home, Pisut and his mother left the palace, she's living on her own and pretending to be pregnant from Pasat, and her baby is looked after by another woman, she calls her aunt. When that lady finds her and tells her that your baby needs you, he's hungry he needs milk, she says I'm pregnant I'm trying to find a dad for my baby, take care it of yourself.

She caused so many problems both for herself, people who cared for her, Pisut, Pasat and her family, anyone related close to her got hit by Nampeung.

On the sister's wedding Pisut's mother tells Pasat the truth that Pisut lied to her to protect her, Nampeung is not pregnant from Pisut.

Siwa begs for mercy not to tell it to sister but it's too late, sister already heard everything she says I won't marry you..

She runs off from her own wedding.

One mistake just for fun, caused him to lose the woman he loves, so the history repeated itself, he made the same mistake his father did, being unfaithful.


Finally swords been pulled out, Pandora's box is open, we see that Nam always been jealous of Pasat, poor Pasat she only saw her a best friend but she's been stabbed by her, not only her but also her sister, her husband, her sister's fiance.

The pool scene I don't know how they can be so stupid enough to think that we'll think she's gonna get drown in the water that's coming up to her ankles.

Thank god that Pisut came at the last minute as she fell and hit her head to the pool, and faints

We can clearly say that Karma finds Nam at the end.. She reaps what she sow.

For Pisut & Pasat, their relationship is jealousy incarnate

I loved the final episode :)) it was a long wait

There's another moral story in this drama, it tells us that you can't break a family and built your own family on top of it.

I don't whether it's me or not Jaron Sorat who play Siwa is reminding Chinese Actor Denny Huang

It is an easy romance, A girl who becomes a GRP and falls in love to a famous singer.

She begs to return to the world, so she's been given a chance to fulfil her wishes and when those are completed she's going to die again.

Woo Joo"Universe" also fell in love with her. they overcome many things with love but the end.. Both happy and sad..

If Byul did not had the accident that day, she would potentially living happily ever after with Woo Joo.

It does not have a rewatch value, but I will most probably download the episodes and turn it into a movie and rewatch like that.

As there are still some stuff that I do not get, as I do watch 5-6 dramas in a week, it all juggles up after a while

Prepare for a long nerve wrecking journey

Right Kratai (Sakao Duen ) is a 16 year old girl, when she arrived to Thailand with her dad, on their way to visit some family members there was a surprise waiting them, that's Sakao Duen's grand dad & his right hand, such a coincidence Songklot is a doctor returning back home to see his sick mother also in the same train and in the same compartment.. While she was trying to run from her grand dad, she hides in the bathroom, cuts her hair with the knife, Songlot had shaved, she finds his jacket, wore it and starts to run. Kratai taken from her dad, so that her dad could marry the daughter of an ambassador, she's been brought to grand dad's house and her cousins and aunties behaved terrible to her, but later on being send to other aunt's house. That's how the story begins.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

CONTAINS SPOILERS

Songklot played an important role in Sakao Duen's life but he eventually fell in love with her, but also trying to court her aunt.

Kratai was a proper tomboy who grew up without her mother only with dad.

How about the cousins and aunties who are desperate, jealous of Sakao Duen / Kratai, every single episode if one doesn't cause a problem the other one does.

Wanting the guys who doesn't want them, and even after they have been told they love someone (sakao duen / Kratai ) else, they continued to chase the guys

On the other hand Aunt has got a couple of guys who are trying to court her. I couldn't figure out whether the auntie really loved Songlot or she thought he's the best of all. I admit one was a loser , some needs to be desperate even thinking to be with him. She had another guy a business man who was trying to court her, and I thought he was more matching to aunt comparing to Songlot.. Auntie Lek is a grown up woman from Songklot's behaviours, the way he looks at Kratai / Sakao Duen, the way he gets worried about her, the way he can't stop thinking & talking about her, should have set the alarm bells on. If not when he was so worried about Kratai / Sakao Duen when they want to send her to Private School or when there was a fire in the farm all should have set the alarm bells for the aunt. But it didn't, she had all the hopes..

Kratai / Sakao Duen & Songlot took long time to understand or admit they love each other. Songlot asked about love to his brother & sister in law, they described it to him, and he only those symptoms with Kratai / Sakao Duen..

Prince understood way before Kratai / Sakao Duen had been send to private school for 3 years. Later on after she's back while Songlot and Prince talking he warned him that he can't court both aunt and niece, and he doesn't want him as a son in law because he's indecisive.

When Kratai / Sakao Duen was in hospital unconscious the way Songlot looks at her, the way he wants to touch, kiss but can't, it hurts a bit.

But he also pushes her away from him.

It's nerve wrecking, Kratai & Songlot has enough screen time but not even a proper kiss, they stare, touch, all sort of childish games but no action.

If I was Kratai, I don't think I'd have ever forgiven a man like Songlot..


It's not bad, but it's not superb either.

I don't think it has a rewatch value

Oh Forgot to add nearly all the leading ladies are younger than New, even the auntie.

Also nobody had changed physically except Kratai during the 3 years she's been away from home in school.

Even the little kids are still at the same height... They aged grand dad a bit.

The plot is no french to regular Thai lakorn lovers and watchers

A rich girl Pin portrayed by (Now) and a poor boy's Nop portrayed by (Kem) paths crossed coincidentally, they fall in love. The girl has no other siblings but the boy has a brother called Dan portrayed by (Blew), who is studying to be a doctor, although we barely see him studying or going to university.

The brother is just an ungrateful brat, who wants to have everything but willing to share.

One day after a huge fight at home Nop learns that the parents that he thought his parents are actually his uncle and aunt.

His aunt took him from hospital soon after his mother gave birth to him, and his father was shot killed by his business partner.

He starts looking for him, in the mean time Pin's step mother had lost an infant son on a traffic accident and still don't believe that he's death and Pin is trying to help her to find her son.

Pin was saved by Nop from the gangsters, traffic accident and a couple of more small accidents and her dad decided to hire him as a body guard.

By the time he was working with her he had already figured out who Pin's father is and started to plan his revenge..

He hurt himself he hurt the woman he loved, he hurt his adopted family in the name of revenge

To take revenge he worked with the gangster when he swore he won't be one of them.

He left the woman he loves on the wedding day, that was something unforgivable

Thank god that revenge was not long lasting

But we on the last episode we had kidnappings

But comparing to other lakorns with similar plot like Hua Jai Sia, I much prefer this one.

There's no rape involved, there's a lot of skin ship, real true kisses, it was like these two can't take off their hands off from each other.

I liked the chemistry between the couple, although I think Kem still needs to improve his acting a bit.

Overall I enjoyed watching.

Watch this & Skip Laorchan

You won't regret the time you spend watching this lakorn.

FIY:
M.R. Taratorn, M.R. Pawornruj, M.R. Puttipat, M.R. Rachanon, and M.R. Ronapee are considered the 3rd generation of the Juthathep family, collectively known as the "5 Lions of Juthathep." In the 4th generation, the first children of the 3rd generation are all males, and they are called the "Second Generation of 5 Lions of Juthathep."

Dhevaprom: Kwanruetai, the second part of the Devaphrom series, features Chat, a doctor in the army. Chat, played by the son of Khun Chai Puttipat (James Ji), resembles his father with glasses and makeup. Just as James Ji debuted in the Khun Chai series, Mikey debuts in the Devaphrom series.

Chat falls in love with an ordinary girl named Kwanruetai, also known as Kwan, who sells food and makes her own living. Her mother, Maratee, was rejected by Kwan's father, who fell in love with another woman. (There’s a hidden lineage you’ll need to watch and discover.)

Kwan dresses as a tomboy because her mother forces her to, fearing Kwan will marry and leave her. At times, Maratee's behavior makes one wonder if she's Kwan’s stepmother due to her harshness.

The love between the main leads, Chat and Kwan, progresses over time. Once Khun Chat sees Khwanruethai, he never looks at any other woman.

I also enjoyed the developing romance between Phak and Ket. They make a lovely couple, and I’d like to see them together in another lakorn. Kwan & Chat's first kiss happens accidentally in episode 1, and there's plenty of chemistry throughout.


Comparing the outfits between the first installment, Dhevaprom: Laorchan, set in the 80s, and this one set in the 90s, the fashion in the second series aligns better with the 90s. In the first series, we saw Laorchan wearing beige Louboutins with the signature red-bottom when climbing the stairs at the office, although these shoes were actually created in the 90s. In this second series, everything looks more appropriate for the 90s, except for the OST, which could be more period-appropriate

If you haven't watched the lakorn yet, please avoid reading the spoilers & review below






Khwan's mother (Maratee) is still obsessed with Phat Phutthiphat Juthathep, the ML's father (James Ji’s character in Khun Chai Puttipat series). Maratee sees Kwan as the reason for her fall from grace. After failing to marry Khun Phat, Maratee became one of the many mistresses of a general, who happens to be Phak's father. Thus, Kwan is Phak's stepsister. Kwan will marry Chat, making her the sister-in-law of Ket, who is Chat’s sister. Therefore, Kwan is both Phak’s stepsister and future sister-in-law. (gosh it is complicated lol)

Fortunately, Phak's brother left a letter for Kongphop, instructing him to keep it hidden from Maratee and to give it to Kwanruethai if she needed help. This is how Kwan discovers her biological father’s identity. Maratee is Kwan’s biological mother and Kongphop’s stepmother. Oom perfectly portrays the middle-aged Maratee.



I loved the tight-knit, supportive relationships between the siblings and cousins. They realized Chat and Kwan were in love before the couple did and even mentioned it to their great-grandmother.

The series includes some deaths related to drug abuse and gangs, like the son of Songphol, Atthawit, and his girlfriend. The portrayal of drug abuse and its consequences is stark.

Phak fell in love with Ket at first sight and started taking photos of her. When caught, he completely denied it. Phak and Ket’s mothers were trying to set them up, which they both initially resisted. When Phak saw that the girl his mother was setting him up with was Ket, he pretended not to be interested. Despite this, he watched over her. Their mothers’ matchmaking didn’t deter Phak, whose love was instant, while Ket’s grew gradually. Phak’s constant support and protection won her over.

In this series, the Juthathep gentlemen fulfill Grandma On’s wishes, unlike their fathers. Personally, I preferred the fathers’ love stories, perhaps due to the actors or the script. Nonetheless, each viewer has their own taste. I was familiar with Pope and Great in the Khun Chai series, while Bomb, James Ji, and James Ma debuted there. In this series, I’m less familiar with the main leads but recognize some supporting actors.

Grandma On, who obstructed the fathers’ romances, is replaced by a supportive grandma in this series. Kaew, Chat’s mother, warmly accepts Kwan, differing from typical lakorns where future mothers-in-law are antagonistic.

Despite social differences between Kwan and Chat, Kwan is the biological daughter of a general and future daughter-in-law of Maratee. Maratee’s realization of her love for her husband came too late.

Episode 13 is crucial as Phutthipat visits Maratee, triggering a flashback to their younger selves. The transitions between young and mature Phutthipat and Maratee are beautifully done, capturing the essence of their characters.

This series teaches that love cannot be controlled, and life should be lived fully without dwelling on uncontrollable matters.

Chat’s declaration to forget their parents and backgrounds, focusing solely on their love, felt genuine and realistic compared to Dhevaprom: Laorchan.

Our romantic army doctor proposes to Kwan while in a hospital bed, a touching moment. When Phutthipat’s visit doesn’t soften Maratee, Chat himself visits her.

Did it work? You need to watch and see.

By episode 14, we bid farewell to our couple and move on to the next installment.

Kwan, preparing to become a nurse in Bangkok, stays with a lady who seems connected to Chat. Am I right? Watch to find out.

Kwan will be the perfect wife for our doctor, continuing the legacy of medical professionals in the family. (her mother & her future father in law)

Grandma finally accepts Phak and Ket’s relationship, and Phak wants to marry Ket soon, though Ket wishes to wait until Chat’s wedding.

Kwan reconciles with her mother Maratee and meets her maternal grandfather. Maratee eventually softens and approves of her future son-in-law.

The next story is about Nuphuk "Jaipisut" and Jak "Ronnajak Juthathep." And you know what else is coming next: the story of Wilairampa Dhevaprom’s daughter Dujapsorn and Asira Juthathep.

We have a female lead Tammy, her sister Cherry asks her to go and look after her boyfriend's 3 kids, tame and train his kids, so when she got married, she'll have well behaved step children, although the youngest sister disagrees, she goes and looks after the kids, she pretends like she's Treeloj's girl friend, as nobody except Treeloj has seen Cherry (Treeloj's actual girl friend Tammy's sister) they have accepted her living in the house, The Children had difficulties to accept Cherry (Tammy) at first, the first one who accepted Tammy was the youngest and the rest followed, she looked after the kids like a real mother, and she genuinely loved the kids. There's a lot of skin ship in the drama, The Scenes between Lucifer Yang & Shailai are quite funny. During the entire drama Treeloj was San except for a couple of scenes, on EP1 and on an other episode, Treeloj was a built big fat man with curly hair and beard, where as San is a charming handsome man Tammy brought him home, after Treeloj / San pretended to have amnesia, nobody recognised San is Treeloj obviously, (on the last few episodes we learn that Treeloj's mother Plean knew it and also the little daughter) We have been given hints that little daughter knew about it on the episode where Tammy asked the little one to memorise the multiplication for 9's and little one whispered to San's ear that I know what will make you smile and on the last episode she told Tammy that she's rooting for her.

There were some jokes such as one of the leads asking Bantoo whether he's eating young grass, he's telling no it's just a salad Namfon towards Shailai that she has ordered young chicken but she received cougar instead, and Shailai asking where's the cougar she wants to have one, :)) which might not be everyone's taste but I laughed so hard.

It's a happy ending, everyone learns San is Treeloj at the end. Sister tells Treeloj that she no longer wants to be Treeloj and she has been trying to tell this to her sister Tammy but she couldn't get a chance. Everything gets resolved.
