7/10 Too much gratuitous sex, but nice twist ending
7/10 Too much gratuitous sex, but nice twist endingStarted off with a mystery and the premise makes the viewer root for certain characters. The unravelling of the mystery was entertaining to watch because of all the plot twists.
The social injustice narrative became a bit too heavy with the sadistic abuse of the servants, and there never seemed to be any way out. The social injustice narrative became a bit too heavy with the sadistic abuse of the servants, and the tiresome part of it is the fact that there never seemed to be any way out. They all had to endure it because of the poverty back at home, and the seemingly high wages that
"compensated" for the "back-breaking labour." In spite of that explanation, it's hard to believe that money is enough to motivate someone stay at this job when some of the abuse could maim them for life, making it difficult for them to continue earning any income at all.
The acting was quite convincing for the most part, for both sides of villains and protagonists. Thanavate Siriwattanagul, who plays Mawin, stood out for me. The characterization of the servants was quite one-dimensional for all of them, so one cannot say that they had much acting to sell to begin with.
Ending was satisfying, although a bit too fantastical.

Impactante serie tailandesa
En el mundo de los dramas no tengo un gusto especial. Veo de cualquier país o estilo, incluso me he animado hace poco a leer Manga, Webtoons ...En este caso trata de una serie tailandesa, emitida en el 2024 en Netflix. Cuenta la historia de una familia rica con varios personajes y la gente que trabaja para ellos.
La serie es coral, muchos personajes con historias que se entrelazan, flashbacks. Inicialmente puede resultar lenta y poco apetecible de ver puesto que sacan imágenes muy desagradables de violencia, sexo, degradación.. Claramente no es una serie para todos los gustos y orientado a un público adulto.
La historia comienza con un suceso desagradable que se resume en el refrán: "en la vida como hermanos pero con el dinero como gitan...".
Los capítulos son largos pero todo tiene su aquel.
