Ugly Duckling Series: Perfect Match Episode 2

3 of 10

There's a harsh reality that people don't get when you're dirt poor. Every penny truly counts. Even if you get out of that poverty. You never waste food and you never pass by a penny lying on the ground. I enjoy that Suea  feels like a genuine poor guy. Lot's of times in dramas the characters are supposed to be super poor. The waste the exude hurts! Not to mention everything they have is not how a poor person would live.  So thanks for that.

Also Suea stands up for Joo in  a great way. He makes the bullies apologize and Joo face herself. Why do other's words matter more? I thought he handled it well. Like Bee said, "He's handsome and brutal."

There are two questions I have. Do ghosts in Thai normally have pimples? Or is it like a joke that if you had pimples you die right away from shame and haunt people? Also, are they that accepting of gay men? The last drama seemed to show an open mind, but still a taboo state. Curious.

I like this episode more as it builds up the characters and story. So not just a Ugly Duckling tale, but a rich girl poor boy cliche. One I actaully enjoy when the male lead has no idea that the girl is rich.  Overall I got some great smiles out of this and it's an improvement.

Though the sound quality on this thing is painful! The volume spikes are horrid.
