I absolutely loved this series. Once again, we get flawless production, stunning cinematography, and meticulous attention to detail. But the real standout here is the cast, especially Peak and Pearl.
Peak was phenomenal as young Prince Saenkaew. And somehow, he managed to outdo himself in the final episodes. You could feel his pain as someone caught like a puppet in the hands of his father and Pin. Yet beneath all that vulnerability, he showed incredible courage by accepting his “fate” to save the man he loves.
Pearl brought Sasin to life with such depth. He never once hesitated in his love for Saenkaew, even when everything was stacked against them. He perfectly portrayed a man torn between loyalty to his cousin and his love for Saenkaew. Their chemistry? Off the charts. They had me from the very first scene. Every glance between them spoke volumes, no words needed. Truly, the eyes were the mirrors of the soul in this series.
Props to Perth Veerinsara for her portrayal of Pin, but I couldn’t connect with her character or believe in her love for Sasin. She knew from the start that her marriage to Saenkaew was arranged for family benefit. He never said he loved her, and always treated her with the same polite respect he gave everyone. Even in her talk with Sasin, she admits Saenkaew doesn’t love her, she just hoped he might one day. Did Sasin and Saenkaew mess up by not being honest with her? Absolutely. But that doesn’t excuse her cruelty, and I couldn’t buy into her redemption arc.
And I knew Saenkaew’s grandmother would support him! I loved that she performed the Sai Sin ceremony to symbolize the eternal bond between their souls.
As for Prince Kamfa… he deserved to live out his days alone. For a moment, I thought my wish had come true. Claiming he was just a concerned father doesn’t fly with me. He was cruel, immoral, and driven by greed. He should’ve faced consequences. That’s why the ending felt a bit unrealistic. Still, the series deserves a solid 10.
Rachawadi, Homthip, Songsawat, and Sanya, they all hold a special place in my heart. The OST is absolutely beautiful.
