TL;DR - I came for the real kisses, and stayed for the decent plot and cute coupling of our main leads. The leads are one of the rare ones with both chemistry and synergy. The FL's parents are some of the best lakorn parents I've ever seen (esp the dad). A good one to watch.

I pretty much started watching this after hearing that this lakorn had real kiss scenes lol. Kisses in Thai lakorns tend to be really tame or non-existent (aka they use the camera angles to make it look like people are kissing) which is weird, considering how they have no problem explicitly showing violence (esp against women). I myself just wanted some nice kiss scenes to watch, so I dived right in and was not disappointed.

There were some issues I had with this lakorn that generally would have led me to rank this a bit lower. However, the things I liked about this series outweighed the bad and took me back to why I watch these in the first place, which is the romance.

This romance was probably one of the best I have seen in a long while. It did start with a love at first sight for the ML which I didn't mind, as it wasn't insta-love and the ML (Thaywa) actually took time to talk and flirt with Raveet before going all in. Both were very compatible with each other, and of course, I can't talk about this romance without mentioning the steamy kisses. I really appreciated that the FL did not seem uncomfortable or frozen when the ML went to kiss her and actually kissed him back; it just felt much more realistic and passionate. I wish Thai kisses were more like this. I didn't even really mind that Thaywa continuously broke his promises to Raveet because I knew he truly loved her (although that part where he thought she sold him out was pretty messed up, but he made up for it after). Both had good synergy and fire chemistry whenever they were together, and the relationship actually had stakes at hand that kept me interested. For me, this was done well enough that allowed me to ignore the more problematic stuff and drift off into the romance.

I do want to mention that I enjoyed the performance of both leads here, and loved how Raveet's character was written. A strong character that can talk back well, can stand up for herself and is not entirely a good person but has morals. I loved that she never backed down from the second FL and the villains, and never admitted to being wrong if she wasn't wrong. I also love Thaywa; while he did have mess ups, I just loved his confidence in courting Raveet and how he loved her even though he was supposed to take revenge on her. I mean, he told her that he wanted to be the owner of her smile forever and that made me awww so hard. I liked how he was able to banter with Raveet naturally, and how fleshed-out he was.

Out of all the secondary cast, my favourite were Raveet's parents. Her mom is such a classy lady and her Dad was surprisingly reasonable, level-headed and always on Raveet's side no matter what. They both matched together very well. The dad is so reasonable that I was kinda sus on why he stuck it with the mistress for so long, although that was explained pretty well. Visually and aura-wise, they were really compatible and I would've actually liked watching a storyline on how they got back together after all the drama.

Besides them, the rest of the cast were ok and served their purpose. I didn't like the villains obviously but the actors portrayed their roles very well and I liked how the lakorn didn't have a redemption arc for anyone; the villains were bad through and through (I wished they showed Pring getting punishment though instead of what she actually got in the drama). A special spotlight goes to the character Da; I didn't like her and she was very selfish and only thinking of herself for the majority of the show. However, there was something that happened that made me feel sorry for her and she did apologize for all the bs she caused. I wished they didn't have a romantic storyline for her, and instead focused on her gaining confidence and breaking out of her depression.

The storyline was good and the drama flowed pretty well. There was a twist that happened in the later episodes that I completely didn't foresee, so kudos to the production for that. I do have to comment on how the last episode seemed pretty rushed and somewhat illogical, although the resolution of the OTP romance was done well here so I'm not going to complain too much.    

Overall, I really liked the OTP and their journey, and I'm pretty satisfied with what I watched. I'll likely re-watch some parts of the lakorn, but not the entire thing. If you were wondering if this was worth a watch, I'd 100% say yes and would wholeheartedly recommend.
