Watch Only for Mark and/or Kim If You Really Want To
DISCLAIMER: I watched this lakorn solely to see Mark Prin's early acting ability so my rating is likely a tad higher due to this bias.
Positives: I enjoyed seeing Marks early work here- as playful, caring and secretly in-love Kob. This is my first Mark-Kim drama and I really like their chemistry, they look so natural and cute together. No wonder there is a hype. The main plot of the story is really simple and common- childhood best friends realizing that they have fallen in love with each other at different points in time. Mark's acting is not as polished as now but you can already see that he is such a natural actor overflowing with potential. Kim did well as perky workaholic Bua, she kept me engaged in her scenes, I have no complaints. The supporting cast did well too even the villain roles. It was endearing and funny to watch Kob and Buas bickering parents. Sean as Tin was also good, I had SLS in many of his scenes.
Negatives: The script itself- plot and characters. There were too many villains ranging from annoying to downright vile. Several unbelievable scenarios. ML was made to be naive/gullible and in some scenes. I hated Jane character the most not just with her interaction with the ML but also with the support characters- just unnecessary. Of course who could stand the usual tropes, they have them all here- jealous SFL, sweet SML, SLS-inducing love triangle, kidnapping, attempted rape, scheming gold digger, unfaithful side characters and goon fights resulting to ML ending up with a gunshot and of course a rushed happy ending. The icing- you get rewarded with one forehead kiss for watching the entire series.
In conclusion, only watch if you really would like to see Mark and/or Kim, otherwise it's a pass- don't waste your time.
