Ching Nang (2012)

Reverse-harem with the kind of heroine that can't enjoy it, LOL

On this lakorn's poster (or on another poster than the one uploaded here) you may see lovely Rodmay surrounded by FOUR boys: the story brings us to the household with 4 sons and 1 maid/fosterdaughter (depends on each household member's view), she's beautiful and kind. For the thing not to be too exaggerated, ALL four are in love with her, LOL.

She only loves 1 of them back, of course:) To be fair, it's depicted well at the beginning why she shares the bond with him and no other brother. Only pitty being the character not staying consistent later: he was supposed to be the one who would NOT rape her, LOL.

Another letdown is Mik Thongraya character's romance line with Praew Chermawi (even prettier than Rodmay) that is cut short. Scriptwriters never learn that less is more. So, besides there being a fight, rape, robbery or kidnap every 5 minutes (and if not that, then at least we have loads of yelling) they would not work more on the characters. As it's more dramatic to kill some of them every now and then. Not enough? Let's kill one of them twice.

So, each plot line ends up with loads of crying, but none is satisfying. At least Rodmay posesses enough charm and cuteness to makes us watch her saint-like character without being bored. On the other hand, one of the 4 sons finds his happiness later in buying out a girl from a brothel, as she turns out to be more decent a person that the one staying in the rich house. That's the only couple left to root for, as all the others are shattered...

As the ending bonus, we can watch Kan Kantathavorn going totally psycho (and his character is supposed to be a doctor). This lakorn's rating is understandably not very high.
