Thaibaan in Love

Beyond Expectation

I watch this for Euro without even watching the trailer, I didn't even know what to expect. But I would say this series matches my sense of humour. Acting wise, they're all fine. I like how the series is in Northeast (?) dialect, and the warmth of the characters.

Although I'm just puzzled about some of the plot:
1. Tao is supposedly an adult is courting Khaoji who is a student, middle school student at that...and nobody has an issue with it?
2. Kwang just cannot make up her mind whether she wants Ben or not. I don't know if the writing is the flaw, or the character is supposed to be indecisive. But it's so annoying considering how she claims Ben is possessive and competitive and left her with their kid.

I thought the series would just be comedy, surprisingly it also included a few serious plots as well, although due the short episodes most of it get glossed over. I watched this on WeTV, I'm not sure if the clips uploaded is somewhat cut off because I feel like the first episode was more like 2nd episode, like we're supposed to already been introduced to the characters, especially for Kwang and Kan's relationship.

I would recommend watching this series because of the warmth and humour (and Euro's good look obviously)
