It's okay but.....
When this series began I was greatly entertained by the storyline and the actors. The actors were refreshing and it was interesting to see how this would evolve. A prince being betrayed by a close friend, losing his memory and starting afresh. The first few episodes were blunt and deliciously funny. Winny in the role of Lava was down to earth without pretense and on meeting Wave (Satang) continued to rub against the grain and irritated everyone. Then in true Gmmtv style it began to feel like a constant throbbing ache until the end. The unnecessary elongation of a script with nothing spectacular. Disappointment set in somewhere around ep 6. Then boredom took over. Episode 10 did some recovery and made it a better viewing.
From the night of the election campaign and most things after, there were numerous sighs being emitted. With all the money Gmmtv has, couldn't the baby bump actually look like a baby bump. Who smilingly gives up their newborn like they're distributing christmas gifts? Like no private conversation. Just blurt it out infront of everyone. Putting the couple on the spot. At this point, I'll bypass the diversion of Winny to help the shopkeeper, whose druggie son decides to inflict revenge. At least, make it look more credible.
Mond can get a pass but most and I do mean most can do with serious acting lessons. I'm left wondering if Neo is regressing. Gawin can not speak without his eyebrows constantly rising as he verbalizes. Ryu is trying but still has some way to go. Winny was a little too expressionless at times.
Personally, if I'm spending money on a project, it should be good. Gmmtv seems to be greenlighting projects to keep the actors names relevant but they should look into making them memorable. I will love to see Winny and Satang in another project because they are decent together. The ending did uplift it and was a nice touch to bring the romance to the fore and cute beach scene. I especially liked that Davin / Wave took some time apart to face his parents and choose the life he wanted. Both their characters showed growth at the end. Its not unwatchable but with a tighter script it might have been much better.
