"Sawadee ka, Nanno na ka"
"Hello, I am NANNO" - translation from thai

Thus opens every episode of this drama "Girl From Nowhere" with that introduction above, which is creepy. which is ranked 8 in MDL and 7.6 on IMDB
I don't try to review drama and post anywhere, but then this one needs a mention because of its powerful storytelling, great music and true portrayals of school issues among teens. Its very very psychological and a bit gore tackling very sensitive unspoken hidden issues in society. And yes its Halloween for me this month, duh the whole month or basically everyday so this is a good title eh.

Just as the title of the drama suggests, the main character is from nowhere, we don't know nothing about her but she goes to this every school and exposes people. It could be teachers, students, the janitors no one is safe, not in a million years. At first i read the synopsis and was discouraged to watch it, but the reviews and ratings made me think otherwise and sure its a completely different take on school issues, the directors/writers took the taboos and just threw it at my face for sure. In every episode its like WTF is happening, because you can't surprise me easily with horror and this show without significant or no jumpscares terrified me or left me feeling empty. Plot twists are unpredictable, literally iin the second season 1st episode a guy gets pregnant so yeah.. that sums it up.

So viewer discretion is super advised, you are going to see sins.. sins crawling on peoples backs but they are also crawling on your back too? No one is free from karma and if you do bad its going to come haunt you. Probably closely following Thai-buddhist culture and the country's school setting, each episode highlights one different scenario: sexual abuse, bribes, mental issues, strict rules, bullying and some out of the world scenarios i have never seen in other drama. It goes on a realistic flow and then suddenly goes a bit supernatural. One of my favorite episodes is where "the weak was given power" : a random girl accidentally finds out that writing on the bathroom wall grants her any wish. We all wish for power, but at what cost exactly? What happens when other weak people share this power? Result is CHAOS..

The main protagonist "Nanno" is like Enma Ai from hell girl, but she has no side kick , she just instigates people, manipulates, teaches lessons, show your sins. She is not your friend and not your enemy, god knows who she is probably but I dont. The protagonist is not your damn hero so don't keep hope. Did this drama give me PTSD or some trauma, it really did, I'm Asian, asian setting in the drama and put two two together and there we go. I share one inspirational quote below from the drama and end this mess:

"All of us have heard countless apologies. If we make a mistake, we apologize. And yet, we still make more mistakes. Perhaps, our apology is actually meant for our next mistake"

How many fake excuses will you make, fake apologies and keep doing the same thing over and over again? If you make one mistake and you do i again, I think it says a lot about you eh?

All in all the show is artistic, well choreographed, absolutely amazing acting from Kitty Chicha and other actors and actresses. Amazing addictive OST's and OP, beautiful scenery, clean TOILETS and yes uh plot twisting story lines carries the show.

This drama makes you think, question and reflect on your whole life. Watch it if you dare! On netflix "Girl From Nowhere" Season 3 coming soon and I am very ready to get tortured blissfully with each new ep.
