That was cute and quite real...

MDL does not aknowledge that this series has 11 episodes and I would think it would be a bit silly to put an extra page for the "so called" special episode - which in reality is the "happy end" episode everyone watching this, does deserve.

They tell the story of a student who falls in love with a teacher - as it happens so many times. But while the teacher knows the feeling of the girl, she is painstakingly aware not to cross a border she should not cross and she doesn't. First we see the perspective of the student and in later episodes we see the perspective of the teacher which is a unique way of story telling.

Of course we don't get the kind of intimacy we expect in a thai show, but it was also not necessary. The "special episode" does give us a view of them together and that's enough as it is. For such a short drama (11 episodes around 4 minutes per episode) they did deliver the story straightforward without being cringe or childish. Everything was very sensible done.

Production quality also felt very high end, which did surprise me a bit. So, if you have the time, this show does not disappoint and is far better than most other long-form series I have seen.
