"The King's Affection" is a historical romance drama that managed to win my affection. I came to admire and adore the main-characters and the supporting characters. The first two episodes were really strong and the latter 10 episodes managed to keep my interest going but i had to put it on-hold after ep 14 because things were really dragging after that and the writing was nowhere superior to how it was in the earlier episodes. But i picked it up again after a few months and finished the last episodes on Netflix. It has all the tropes i love but didn`t manage to make a perfect story out of it but it was good anyway. Yeon Seon is a admirable heroine who was a victim in this whole story that get forced to take on her dead twin-brothers throne. I just adore her two servants who always stood by her side and protected her. Then we have the absolutely fearless but vulnerable hero Jung who stood for what is right. He couldn`t accept nor condone what his father had done and what he stands for. It really took a toll on him mentally while growing up but he still stayed strong in his beliefs and managed to grow up into such a great man- deserving of our beloved heroine Yeon Seon. I love how he dearly comes to love her while still thinking she is a Male Prince. He loved her when he was a boy and he falls in love with her again as a man. I rooted for Jung and Yeon Seon with all my heart, wishing their happy ever after.

I actually had this lakhorn on-hold several months ago but decided to pick it up and finally finish it.So i started to watch it all over just to remember some details."Kha Khong Khon " stars the veteran actors Pong Nawat and Nune Woranuch. Both played their characters very well, watching Pong portray the arrogant alpha-male Lak who deeply distrusts all women but despite his cynicism falls head over heels with the dancer Gluay who is portrayed by Nune. Gluay has three men that are in love with her over the course of the story,but the only one who captures her heart will be Lak, ever possessive and crazy about her. So much that he refused to give up on their marriage,refused to let go of her since he took such pride in claiming her in front of everyone.The first 6 or 7 episodes were going strong with Lak and Gluay arguing bitterly against each other all the time,while neither could ignore the attraction (who am i kiddin, think they argued until ep 14 or 15).Especially Lak who was drawn to her even from episode 1. The drama added up in every episode and it was entertaining all the way through. So much happens, but i am glad i watched it. Pong is such a handsome actor who create awesome angst in his character and he have such great chemistry with all his co-stars. Loved every scene together with him and Nune. I am also curious to check out the older versions.

If i would EVER want to re-watch this drama,then it would solely be for the early intense scenes between Nabi and Kawin.There is a investigation going on by our main-leads.Kawin is trying to figure out the truth of his mother`s death and Nabi is trying to find her older sister,both Nabi and Kawin are separated lovers,too deeply hurt and angry at each other to even have one normal conversation.Kawin started off in the drama as a really angry,arrogant and shameless hero bent on revenge towards Nabi and even more bitterly hateful towards his father who he also thinks was the cause of his mothers death...but throughout the drama he becomes almost broken...and a very much humble man. Nabi has her own struggles to go through in her quest for finding her sister...and how tragic even that turns out to be.

"My Brother Loves Me Too Much" is the sequel movie to the proluge mini-series and should be watched after watching the mini-series. It is about the dreamy and romantic love-starved Setoka who finds herself being surrounded by hot guys who wants to woo her,and mids of it all there is her older brother Haruka...always protecting and cherishing her from the shadows.

This is a re-watch,and darn how i enjoyed it! It is stupidly cringy at times...but the chemistry and relationship between Setoka and Haruka really makes up for it.I just love them in every scene together.Haruka`s endless love for Setoka is beautiful...always guarding her and loving her secretly!Ahhhh...i love romance!

"Daytime Shooting Star" is a story filled with youth,life,friendships and the power of first love and unrequited love. Suzume is a country girl with nothing but joy and love inside of herself and she so selflessly gave to others. She won over other people by her goodness,even the evil supporting female character couldn`t stay evil for long since she got so charmed by Suzume`s innocence and goodness. I totally adored her!

I love the directing and the production of this film even if the plot itself wasn`t that original.But the most important thing is that it delivered well and i ended up liking all the characters.Especially a certain golden-hearted Mamura who Suzume befriends.

I remember when "Muean Khon La Fark Fah" aired the year "Kluen Cheewit" also aired in 2017 and i never thought i would watch it until i became obsessed with Andrew Gregson who portrays the rich and lonely business tycoon Chat Waritsaluk who gets enraged when his father marries a woman he considers a gold-digger and he immediatly detests his new step-sister,the bright and lively Yothaka portrayed by Matt Peeranee. But warm feelings starts to erupt between the two,and despite them being different as fire and water they irresistibly fall in love with each other.

I enjoyed this journey of romantic angst,the first 7 episodes are the best in my case since it highly show-cased the journey of Yo and Chat falling in love and dealing with their passion for each other.Andy and Matt are both terrific performers,and together they also had great chemistry! It was also fun seeing Vicky and Not co-star since i have also watched them in "Jai Rao" as supporting characters. Mint Nutwara has gotten better in acting and it was quite seeing her in some scenes with Andy since they co-starred as love-interests in "Kehas See Dang". I absolutely loved Yo`s loyal friends Same and Jane-they were hilarious! Andy is so good at acting that he makes every character he ever played his own. When he smiles or cries it always impact my heart. This is a great lakhorn that got quite dramatic at times,but it was romantic and exciting nonethless.

"Close Range Love" have been on my to-watch list for years and i finally found time to sit down and watch it. Its a romantic drama about the introvert Kururugi Yuni who falls in love with her charming english teacher Sakurai Haruka. I am much used to the basic cheesy storylines since many of j-dramas and j-movies are based on mangas. I found this movie to be rather adorable but i would not like to re-watch it. I find Komatsu Nana a very stunning actress and she acts so well with her eyes and conveys emotions rather well despite playing such a stoic character like Yuni.

I haven`t had this much fun in a while!"Ruk Kerd Nai Tarad Sod" from 2001 (which means:"Love Is In The Market") is a romantic comedy that stars the beloved stars Andrew Gregson and Aom Piyada as the star-crossed lovers Tong and Gim Lung.Together with a colorful cast this lakhorn presents how a life in the fresh market works out and what needs to be done to make it better for both customers and sellers.Tong is a bold,cheeky and energetic young vegetable seller who challenges the usual customs of greed,selfishness and carelessness of the sellers and teaches that you can do good without expecting anything in return.He also teaches the other sellers how to gain knowledge about their products and how to sell it in a healthier way to the customers.Meanwhile he falls for the fish seller Gim Lung who has her stall across from his but their love has many obstacles as Gim Lung`s mother hates him with her every being...and there is another problem where every other girl wants to possess Tong for themselves.

This lakhorn is pure entertainment and joy from start to the end.Andrew Gregson amazes me in everything he does on-screen and he totally nailed the role of Tong.I have never seen him play such a goofy character.He brought out both the bold carefree gesture of Tong while also showing off his sensitive side so well.Andrew made Tong freaking adorable!It makes it even better with how handsome of a actor Andrew is!I love him so much!I am also a great fan of Aom,she is so beautiful and acts so well on-screen and her chemsitry with Andrew was wonderful!I love how they go from staring at each other to actually talking and then writing letters to each other.Both could be so shy with each other,so cute!On the front,there is not that much romance although its central to the story.But it didn`t take away my enjoyment of it since this is a really well done lakhorn in acting,directing and writing.I love all the other cast also.Tong`s friends Luen and Bang are both so funny!Love every scene with them!The moments with Tong arguing with Gim Lung`s mother was HILARIOUS!Never could stop laughing when Tong was provocing her all the time! I also enjoyed the moments with Hong and Ting,their fun bickering and conversations.Everything was hilarious and over the top sometimes,but it was entertaining nonethless.No wonder this became a hit by the time it aired,i will miss all the characters so much!

I wonder if i am to nice on this lakhorn."Roy Lae Sanae Luang" is one of the most beloved slap-kiss lakhorns,and has a trope very similar to another slap-kiss with the name "Ra Rerng Fai" that was done A LOT better.This also is my first time watching Weir and Mai on-screen,and i will say that Mai totally entranced me with her beauty and talent.I will look out for more lakhorns with her.

The main-hero Krao Supagan`s mother got raped and blackmailed by main-heroines father.Unable to handle the shame,Krao`s mother commited suicide. I understand Krao`s bitter resentment and hatred towards the Vichawayt family.They stand for everything that broke his family apart.He grows up in the heights of the business World,and ruthlessly plans ways for the Vichawayts destruction.He is able to use every method:seduction,deception,blackmail,kidnapping,forced marriage and forced kissess...he does it all!

Krao Supagan (played by Weir Sukollawat Kanarot) and Nuch Vichawayt (played by Mai Davika Hoorne) have a very turbulent relationship through and hated to love each other.Sadly this lakhorn was better the first eight episodes and then it started to go downhill,and i really suffered in the rest of it.Its badly written,very repetitive with much unnecessary OTT scenes.The problem may be that i have watched too many lakhorns,and done this too many times to be impressed.

By the way,i really liked the devotion and loyalty Chaitong had for his affection over Nuch in all 18 episodes (it was clear that Nuch would reject him) and then the writers make him fall for his Child-hood friend near the absolute end,just WTF???I didn`t Believe in any of it.

One of the earlier japanese dramas i have watched, "Hana Yori Dango" changed my world totally with its magnificent story-line where two different people from different classes become enemies and later turns to fall in love. The famous F4 are four rich guys everyone fears, where no one can say anything against them, not even the teachers. The leader of F4, the dynamic and cruel Anti-hero Tsukasa Domyjoji sends a red card to every guy he wants to punish and lets the whole school bully him. But our heroine, the poor but determined Makino Tsukushi becomes the first person and girl ever to stands up against Domyjoji and declare war against F4. Domyjoji shocked but soon insistent and full of rage will try everything to make Makino`s life a living hell to get her to leave the school...but he had not seen the strength in Makinos heart from the start..and he will against his will fall in love with her with all his heart and throughout the journey he fights for her. He is a young man who had everything delivered at his feet...a cold and violent soul..and his first love will be the only thing he ever wants, but it is a unrequited love as the girl he loves are in love with his bestfriend.

There are many adaptions based on this the manga "Hana Yori Dango" but the japanese version in MY opinion are the best one. It stays true to its story and the characters. Makino and Domyjoji are characters i love with all my heart and their blossoming love-story stays beautiful the whole time. They have an incredible chemistry, and the brotherhood of F4 always leave me to tears, they are such good friends, and by stealing the leaders heart, Makino also become a great friend to the all other guys. I have lost count on how many times i have watched this drama. I L.O.V.E and A.D.O.R.E this series with all my heart..!

This drama based on the manga has have many adaptions of it, but i still believe that this one is the best, starred the popular actors Koyuki (seen her in "The Last Sauraj" opposite Tom Cruise) and one of my favourite Asian actors Jun Matsumoto- they both give incredible performances as this drama explains the relationship between a human and pet. The Main-hero has to suffer a painful unrequited love as a human pet to his savior and owner, the Main-heroine. It`s really charming and funny, and the main-leads had so much angst going on that i sometimes shed some tears. But the HEA is still sweet to watch!

Originally published on a popular cell phone site, "Koizora" has captured millions of hearts around the world with it`s heart-breaking Love-Story. I watched this drama and was hooked from the start. Mika is a sweet girl who goes through happiness and later on hardships throughout high-school. The innocent shelter around her disappears when she captures the heart of Hiro, a rough popular guy who stands out with his bleached hair. But his Golden Heart is what captured me as it captured Mika. His characterization are most put out in this drama than it did in the movie or the manga (i haven`t read the original novel) which is also why i love this drama adaption more.

The other adaptions are simply terrible for me. In this drama he is extremely possessive and protective of Mika, even willing to go as far as killing another person for her. He is simply one of my favourite on-television heroes ever, and Mika with her passion and strength i simply adored her. Mika and Hiro together joins into a journey where they experience the most truth in pain, passion, jealousy, and the beauty of love. It has its drama and angst, and the ending made me cry rivers...so much like never before. I love Mika and Hiro so much, and their pure undying love totally undid me.!

"Summer`s Desire" is a blessing in my life that i will never forget.I was 12 years old when i first watched it with my little-sister,and i have re-watched it once a year since then.
It`s a very powerful romantic drama,despite not having "that much" romance in it.It revolves around three people.One woman and two men who loves her.This drama is based on a novel and also has a manga adaption by Ming Xiao Xi who also have put out some quotes in the every start of every episodes of the drama.Its deepful meanings about love and relationships.It also shows that every episode resembles a greater meaning behind it.

Yin Xia Mo (played by Barbie Hsu) is the FL,a heroine who resembles like no other.She is not the supernaive and sacrificial character,nor is she a bratty snob.She has such patience for life that it shatters you,because life has given her none of that.Strength and bravery lies in her heart,and the deep need to survive in a hypocritical world where she trusts nobody.Her younger half-brother is a link that sways her away from madness,and the one soul she loves the most.For him she is ready to kill anyone who harms him ,and even accept punishment that serves her in jail.She is considered to be cold-hearted and manipulative by the people around her,but deep inside her heart she is just longing for happiness.We as viewers just have to applaud over her courage for that.

Luo Xi (played by Huang Xiaoming) is the charismatic devil-like orphan who also has manipulative and selfish characteristics like Xia Mo,especially for survival.He is cynical,sarcastic and two-faced from the start,just to not let anyone near him,and for him to not let himself care.That falls apart when he gets to know his foster-sister Xia Mo,and falls madly and unhappily in love with her.He is a tortured soul whose mother abandoned him in a amusement park,that grave betrayal has scarred him for life,until he loses his heart to Xia Mo.He can be considered as a tragic hero for many,but for me he is a tortured soul that (just like Xia Mo) earns for happiness,and he is brave enough to follow it.

The greatest reason i always re-watch this drama is because of Peter Ho`s portrayal of the eccentric,mighty alpha-male of a tycoon Ou Chen who has lived a lonely and cold life as long as he can remember.As a young teenager he befriends and falls in love with Xia Mo,but his possessive and controlling nature creates a strain in their relationship later in High-School.I love that Ou Chen never wavered in his love for Xia Mo,even when he suffered amnesia his heart still longed for Xia Mo.His love for her was his ruin...and his cure.He loved her so much that he couldn`t live without her.Nothing meant anything without her.I love him so much.He shines through every scenes,and has the brooding irresistible quality about him...and every time he looked at Xia Mo,my stomach just tickled like crazy.His love for Xia Mo was so powerful that it could easily destroy him.He is the Anti-hero you can`t help but love,and he lets nothing stand in his way in his pursuit of his beloved Xia Mo.Peter Ho should have got an Oscar for his performance,this man really fascinated me!!!
