When It’s So Much Better Than You Expected
“My Sassy Psychic” - a truly great lakorn with a concept that’s nothing new, but written and executed in a fresh way.
To begin, this lakorn is like a mix of “My Secret Bride”, “Love Forever After”, “I See Dead People”, “Let’s Fight Ghost” & “Superburoot Jorm Jon: Maturot Lohgan”. It has a bit of mystical/supernatural elements because of the amulet thingy, and horror because of the ghosts.
As always, when I do drama reviews I’ll include the Pros & Cons/Likes & Dislikes in my own views.
WARNING AHEAD: It’s gonna be long.
LIKES:
1. PLOT: Oh the storylines is VERY good overall. There’s never a boring moment even when it’s not the main characters’ scenes.
And you know when you’ve already watched too much lakorn that you’ve become an expert in “clicking the skip button”? Yeah, I’m one of those people. There are quite a number of lakorns that make me click the skip button and skipping through unnecessary plot, sometimes I end up skipping a big part of the story, but it’s unnecessary, so why waste time, right?
But that’s not the case with this one. Without expecting anything high, only started with my love towards the ML actor, Punjan, and my liking for romcom genre, I ended up enjoying this drama very much, from episode 1 to episode 13.
The plot development is surprisingly fast. In episode 2, we already see the main couple agreeing to work together. It’s so nice to see that.
The writing is also smooth and almost flawless, unlike typical Thai lakorns. It made me look forward to watching more dramas from the same scriptwriter.
2. CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT: This is one of the most important aspects for me when I watch a drama. And luckily it passed the standard. You may not like the ML at first (not me tho, because it’s Punjan LOL) as he started off as a hotheaded guy, easy to get angry and pick a fight, but here’s what I LOVE the most about it.
It’s shown every time after discussing/resolving a misunderstanding that leads him to being a hothead, he’s kinda quick to be cool and calm down. Now this is considered a very great trait that a Thai lakorn could have.
Same with other characters, even the side characters (like Phai). I really like that even side characters have their own roles here. Not a waste of acting talent.
3. ROMANCE: Of course, the one that I’d been looking forward since the beginning because it’s “romcom”, after all. NGL, I LOVE LOVE LOVE the romance between our main couple. No unnecessary hate towards each other, started as a cute crush then it develops quite fast, I’d say. That’s one more surprise for me. And the romance is not that heavy romance, it’s rather cute, sweet & satisfying.
4. ACTING: I’ve always known Punjan’s great potential and he did not disappoint in this lakorn. That’s one of the reasons I decided to watch this drama.
On the other hand, I never knew Preem tho. At first, she kinda reminds me of the famous Filipino actor, Daniel Padilla. IDK why, maybe the nose and the lips? ? But her acting is also great. It didn’t feel awkward or anything.
As for other characters, I think all of them did a great job. My most favourite is the cute Palm Supachai (Sak, the ML’s bestie). He’s always entertaining in every lakorn he’s in, even in a heavy lakorn like “Game of Outlaws”. He brightens our mood with his funny & cute character.
5. CHEMISTRY: Oh God, who would’ve thought that Punjan & Preem would look so good together? Their chemistry is unexpectedly off the chart, y’all. I have nothing bad to say. I just hope we’ll see them as the main couple in another drama in the future.
There’s nothing bad to say about the chemistry between every cast member. I love them all!
6. EMOTIONAL DAMAGE: Although this lakorn is lighthearted, it still has its own emotional phase. The family & friendship aspects caught my heart. Tho I laughed a lot because of the comedy, I also cried a lot towards the end.
7. COMEDY: At times, when watching this drama, I thought it wasn’t like Thai lakorn, but aside from the amulet thingy, the comedy is what reminds me that it is indeed a Thai lakorn, as we know Thailand is the best when it comes to comedy.
I love the comedic duo, Phai & Mee, the FL’s dad, the ML’s bestie Sak, the saloon owner Thor. They made this drama funnier and brighter.
1. OST: The theme songs are nice for your ears. My most favourite is “I’ll Be There”. I find myself unconsciously hum the song and it keeps playing in my mind and I like it. Gonna be in my favourite lakorn OST list!
Now it’s time for-
DISLIKES:
1. ROMANCE: I know I said I love the romance but it’s kinda short for me. I wish they could give us at least one more episode that focuses on the romance. :(
2. SLS: It might be bad if you have 2nd lead syndrome (SLS) for Doctor Pran. I’m lucky enough that I was always rooting for the ML since episode 1. But what’s there not to like about Doctor Pran? He’s hot, cool & calm, kind, smart, rich, well y’know, he’s the typical dream guy most ladies would swoon over.
1. SHORT: I’m not sure if this is even a bad thing about this drama but 13 EPISODES IS NOT ENOUGH FOR ME. *cries* But only 13 eps might be a good thing as no unnecessary draggy plot like typical lakorns.
CONCLUSION: Honestly speaking, My Sassy Psychic is a gem. It’s one of the hidden gems that we rarely find when it comes to Thai lakorn. It deserves more recognition & hype! :’)
OMG sorry guys it’s sooo long. I always do this, losing track of what I was really trying to tell, then it gets so long before I even realise. But I hope my reviews could convince you to start watching My Sassy Psychic (now what else are you waiting for? GO WATCH IT NOW!)
