When Obsession Is Mistaken for Love
I was waiting for this lakorn for a long time. I had already watched its older 2009 version, so I was glad to see a new adaptation finally released. I discovered it today and started watching immediately.
Purim, however, is honestly a disgusting character. A complete womanizer. He keeps hanging around with different women and then takes out his frustration on Nui simply because she ignores him. What makes it worse is the age gap—Nui is young enough to be his daughter. His behavior feels more like harassment than romance, giving off a disturbing, almost predatory personality.
Nui, on the other hand, is portrayed as a constant crybaby—naive, emotionally weak, and painfully unaware. Thank God this is just a drama, because in real life I find such portrayals frustrating. Female characters deserve at least basic intelligence, the ability to recognize right from wrong, and the courage to stand up for themselves instead of silently suffering.
That said, this kind of storyline is sadly very popular in Thai lakorns—the obsessive, dominating male lead and the fragile, submissive female lead. The familiar “slap-and-kiss” trope continues, where no matter how cruel or abusive the man is, everything is magically forgiven in the end. Forced love is normalized, and even sexual violence is romanticized, which is deeply toxic and potentially traumatic for real women watching.
As a drama, it fits the genre perfectly. But as a story about love, it raises uncomfortable questions about what we choose to normalize and glorify on screen.
