"Fah Pieng Din" (which means "When the Sky Falls") were one of the anticipated lakhorns for me in year 2022 and i was giddily excited when the trailer got released. We have the beautiful actress Prang Kannarun playing our brave heroine Chompoo who had to change her name into Sarika to hide from the villains, and our very charismatic actor Film Thanapat portraying the arrogant and slightly mad anti-hero Thewarat. In their reunion...the sky fell on the earth without Chompoo & Thewarat realizing it. It was a destined meeting and a rather explosive one since they despise each other on sight. This was a unforgettable love-story, with action and lots of drama mixed in. I loved this journey.

I love the scenery in this lakhorn, the nature and the animals and the buildings. All of it were beautiful. To top it all the main-leads are beautiful as well. Everytime Thewarat glanced at Chompoo, even in anger...goosebumps would attack me all over again. He was so drawn to her and he fell so hard for her. Even Chompoo wondered when their love started. According to me, it started when they were kids, thinking they were biological siblings. Not only were they playmates, but both cared for each other in a more mature level than most children usually do. Don`t get me wrong, their love was innocent, but it was there and it was destined to only bloom into the love a man and woman have for each other when they become adults. Exactly as it happened to Chompoo & Thewarat when they reunited. Chompoo doesn`t know this handsome caring brother of hers anymore when they meet again, he has turned into a stranger talking in only the ways of money. He is hateful, arrogant and such a snob he makes her want to slap him hard in the face. Which she also does later on,lol. But she also doesn`t realize how broken his soul actually is, how madness is there lingering in his mind, eating at his heart. Living with a guardian that has made his life a living hell ever since he lost Chompoo and their father. That guardian is the main villian Pitak, portrayed by the iconic actor Captain Phutanate who by the way also portrayed Thewarat in the 2001 version of "Fah Pieng Din".

Since the story is set in 60s and yearly 70s in Thailand, this was a very brutal and barbaric times. So expect lots of violence in this story. It is quite cruel in what Chompoo & Thewarat goes through in this story. Your heart breaks for them since both are victims of such terrible deceits in this story. Thewarat`s breakdown was to be expected, Film managed to portray and give a heart to this complex character. I just could not help but love him, he tried so hard to sustain his goodness. He tried to make up for the bad stuff he did by hurting himself, he made me cry in his utter pain and loneliness and helplessness of his empty life. Only Chompoo could give him happiness and solace to his soul. He never expected it, he did not want it. But he did embrace it with a brave mind.I love how he stood his ground and fought hard to win Chompoo`s love and trust. Even when he did come to the realization that Sarika is Chompoo (and he thinks they are biological siblings) he still could not leave her as a brother or lover. His heartbreak when he came to the realization that Sarika is Chompoo made me cry rivers.

Prang is a actress i have come to truly love in all the lakhorns i have seen her in supporting roles ("Sai Lub Ruk Puan" and "Love Destiny") and i always wanted her to have a awesome lead role. Finally got it here. She looked absolutely BEAUTIFUL as Chompoo/ Sarika and gave a incredible performance in highlighting the classiness of the character mixed with a badass confident attitude in where she mouthed facts to EVERYONE who wanted to cross her, especially our leading male Thewarat,LOL. Ahhh, how she infuriated him in the early episodes. I loved it. Also what a stunning picture she made when she played the violin in that white/pink dress,just wow. Not surprised at all that Thewarat could not stop stare at her, or with him even announcing that they are getting engaged in front of the whole audience. Just awesome, i love it. I love this lakhorn, do not regret watching it at all!

My heart is bursting right through me.I have cried and i have laughed so much that all my energy have been drained by getting entertained by the incredible characters of Bee (starring Ben Pisut) and Mark (starring Tua Sarunyu).Since i watched the 2011 version of "Roy Marn" first i badly wanted to check out the earlier versions and where else to start than the original version from 1990!??The 2011 version is more prolonged and fleshed out with more scenes between Mark and Bee,but both versions still are slow-burn in the romance department.But i gotta admit that Ben Pisut portrayed the tomboy Bee much better than Margie in the 2011 version.The role Bee was made for Ben Pisut.She had such a expressive face.Bee is a creature of impulse and are so spirited that she never could stay still or shut up for a second.She pranked and joked around and flew everywhere the wind took her.She was part of the nature and the joy of living despite being a orphan,and getting reminded of it everyday by her cousin May and her aunt.But among all the characters in this show she has the most pure soul and such a great dignity that she refused to fight for her man once she falls for him.She falls very late for Mark,how could she when he presented everything she hated.He was cynical,manipulative and arrogant and she easily saw through his mask on first sight and therefore insults him at every chance she gets.
No one could rile up Mark as Bee did,she was able to ruin his whole day many times..and i loved every second of it since he was such a scoundrel,he freaking slaps Bee out of anger two times in this version which shocked me since it never happened in the 2011 version!.The actor Tua Sarunyu portrayed him perfectly and i am saddened that he died this summer in 2020.He was such an amazing actor and had such charisma on-screen!When Mark falls for Bee..he REALLY falls for her and how my heart broke for his agony of longing for her.In this version he is one of the worst playboys ever..and its such a pleasure to see Bee take him down his knees.I also love that this version have many real kiss scenes between Bee and Mark which was surprising to me since there were none in the 2011 version.One more fun fact is that this version has the same actress portraying the grandmother in the 2011 version.This is indeed a unforgettable story..so wonderful and oh so romantic!!!

Star-crossed lovers that made my heart bleed...

"Till the End of the Moon" is the best chinese drama i have ever seen. I am flabbergasted, i am sad, i am shocked...all emotions all at once and that does not often happen to me when watching a drama. I feel like there are no words enough expressing my deep affection for this story, its a marvelous epic fantasy war drama that consists of 40 episodes that kept me glued to the screen. All of the realms, all of the magical events and the songs kept my heart singing and all of the characters that rocked their part of the story, wether good and bad. I love it, i love all of it. Wow!!!

Tantai Jin, oh my my what a character. He is so deep and so complex!! One of the best written characters i have ever seen on-screen. Born for destruction and destined for the same. He was doomed before he even was born. He hated the world and he hated his miserable existence. There was no drop of goodness lent to him. Sheer will and selfishness made him live on, and sheer cunningness made him survive. His transformation from a abused hostage to a powerful King....i just find it so amazing! All of it!!But in mids of all that he meets Li Susu in the form of his wife Ye Xihu...finding her sudden change of behaviour strange and even more that she is willing to protect and die for him. He never even knew how starved of affection he was before she started to show that to him. He was sedcued and tempted by her goodness and light. Fascinated by her stubborness and fearlessness. Alive only when he was near her, he fell completely and irrevocably in love with her. How much i cried with him, he made my heart bleed with his torture. The actor did a remarkable job, making this character alive in its perfection. His stunning beauty and his deep longing eyes. Wow...just wow. His beloved heroine Li Susu feels like a dear friend of mine, her mission costing almost her life...and she was still so insistent in making it succeed. Her pain was my pain as well. She desperately wished she could stay by Tantai Jin`s side and be the light in his darkness...alas fate. The fate of star-crossed lovers. It was always them, it was always about them...they were the End of the Moon.

Story that only cares about the Romance!

Sign me up because i did not know what to expect when i started this drama yesterday evening and binge watched and finished it with a heavy but happy heart. One day was all it took. Wow. We get a revenge plot, divine clan waiting to be released, demonic beings that wants their heady power, a Twin Soul pact between the heartbroken heroine Mu Ling Xue and her savior and captor Phoenix Beast Chi Yu. Their love-story is what truly dominates, the way they touch each other...these glances and the sincere kindness and loyalty Ling Xue showed the cold-hearted Phoenix truly melted his heart. I believe he truly fell in love with her when he watched her watching the falling snowflakes...truly understanding what a wonderful human being she is.

His gaze on her, omg what a marvelous actor! Its my first time seeing both mainleads act, but the male performer Akilyar depiced such soulful human beauty that i found him absolutely captivating asthe Phoenix Beast.When he sacrificed two of his Golden Wings to save her absolutely broke my heart, the weaking of his power and how the enemies used it against them.Utterly excruciating for me to watch! His cold glance...even his tender smile that took my screen by storm! The way he smiled at her so lovingly,ah my heart!!!I just can`t take it, it was toooo much for my heart!

Same Director that made three of my other favourite Mini-dramas: "Grab Your Love", "Love & Bid Farewell" and "Spring Rewritten". This man is PURE TALENT, just gotta credit that!!

"Samee Chua Keun" is a lakhorn with a very interesting storyline, but the execution is so poor that it got painful. Just bad writing with some wayward characters and repititive tiring scenes that caused a headache.I think it was around ep 4 i realized how really slow the pace was.Bad lakhorns like these were done a while ago, and it is such a shame that the writers didn`t care enough to make this as good as they could when they had all the possible means to do it. They have great OST, handsome main-leads, and a great plot to build the story around and they had to make a miss out of it. Its just hard for me to comprehend that this is the same writers that made "Fah Mee Tawan" which is a favourite lakhorn of mine. Don`t let my negative review or rating affect you though, this lakhorn had at least some great episodes i enjoyed, and the on-screen chemistry between Euro and Pinkploy is really good.

They reunite after three years...

and this time ML does everything to win back her heart. Even though it actually was her that broke up with him in the past. They have made several versions out of this plot and i have watched four of them now. They all start in the same way with FL driving a car with her fiance SML makes out with her cousin in the backseat, a car drives forward in front of them, and in that car we see the very alluring ML come out, the tension is always clear and instant between the mainleads as soon as they gaze at each other. Then their love-story moves forward. ML is smitten and so devoted, with a slight dark edge to him. Ke Chun is a marvelous actor and he is best at what he does, his eyes can tell you a whole story. I prefer the other versions as whole, but Ke Chun is a winner by himself as well.

Cute with smoldering kissess!!

I see a new drama with Lanbo and i just CLICK! He totally stole my heart in "No One But You" with his sexy charisma and i have not had enough of him since then! In this drama we see him as a geology professor and he is more calm and cool headed as a character. FL is a popular actress who has to deal with her company`s shady contracts and the cyber bullying of the audience+mean haters. I like that despite her ongoing despression in the second half she still had it in her to be joyful and hopeful. Even pursuing ML in such a sweet manner, since he is the more shy one. The kissess after they become a couple are SMOLDERING HAWT!!!Just sayinnn!

Yeah i admit it, i fell in love with this teleserya.Although i am more into the old-school soap opera tropes i do appreaciate cheesiness when its done right.In this case the story line was done perfectly in just 10 episodes with the perfect cast to deliver it. Donny and Belle had the CHEMISTRY to make us feel kilig (romantic thrill) in their every scene together. I love how their characters went from enemies-to friends-to lovers. Donny`s character Dieb Enrile really grew on the viewers,he fell much early in love with Belle`s character Maxpein.God how much he courts,chases and loves her throughout this story,near the end he also tells her with tears in his eyes how much it hurts.His character reminds me of another badboy character from a filipino teleserya with the name Gino.Although Gino was more selfish and wicked in character from the start,he grows to become his female leads most ardent, relentless and humble lover. Maxpein herself wasn`t a bad heroine,i almost crushed on her myself since she is such a badass who stood up against Dieb with dignity when he bullied her...while also stealing his heart.

"Yah Leum Chan" (which means:"Forget Me Not") is a romantic slap-kiss drama that showes us the second chance love-story between separated lovers, Tik Jesadporn starring as the energic and ruthless Tycoon Khemachad, and Anne Thongprasom starring as the gentle and angelic Suriyawadee. All viewers had looked forward on watching Tik and Anne star on-screen together, as they both have had acting careers over a decade and they finally choose to be on this lakhorn-project together for the first time. Suriyawadee marries a much older man to repay her family debts, and in turn has to leave her college sweetheart Khemchad. Leaving only a note, telling him to forget her, he soon gets crashed by a car and almost died. Her leaving him to marry a older rich guy makes him a dying living human being, and losing all the love he could ever feel in his heart he is determined to clear his studies and become a rich and powerful businessman just to spite Suriyawadee if he ever sees her again. Several years forward they meet again, and Khemchad has succeded in both fame and fortune, but is feared by all his employes and enemies, except his optimistic girlfriend Gaenlong (played by Rita Jensen), and Suriyawadee herself has a changed name,is a widow and have twins she is taking care of. The hatred carved into Khem`s heart multiplies when he sees Suriayadee again and swears to make her life a living hell, and hurt her the same as she hurt him before.

Revenge, seduction, forbidden love is a mix in between over the whole path in the story. Its a wonderful sight to watch Tik and Anne interact, opening the longing and pain inside the characters of Khem and Wadee. Fate did bring them together, and both of them did unknowingly choose to follow it. Many will also fan-girl over the secondary romance between Kong and Rita, their friend-to-lovers story line are so utterly adorable! Many will despise Khem`s personality (i even succeded in hating him more than i ever hated Kawee or Kongpop) as he is not the young carefree innocent man he once was in college. He is soothing hatred and does many selfish actions just for the satisfaction of it, and even seduces and tricks Wadee for revenge. But damn does he also grovel blood,hehehe! The director who brought us "Buang Hong","Tarm Ruk Keun Jai" and "Raeng Pradtanaha" and the producer who brought us "Kluen Cheewit"," Sawan Biang" and "Sood Snaeha" have both collaborated to create this lakhorn in which a important flower symbolize eternal love between Khem and Wadee, which is "Forget me Not".

Just what i CRAVE IN A ROMANCE TO DIE FOR!

Sizzling, sexy and crazy....damn how i enjoyed "No One, But You"! We have the tough heroine getting fiercely pursued by the "never take no for an answer" hot,sexy and domineering Alpha-male of a Male Hero. The actor did a great job in portraying ML´s obsessiveness. He was so hot and ready for his beloved FL, even she was perplexed by the way he was chasing after her and when she asks him about it his answer is that his heart beats faster whenever he sees her. Ah yeah, he was so hot for her! And crazy too since he was even willing to point a gun to his own mother for the sake of being with the heroine. CRAZY AS HELL, but i loved him more for it as well!

Took my breath away!!!!

I HAVE A FEVER!!My romance starved heart just yearned for a good romance drama like "The Prince is too Wild". This is a mini drama, but a kind soul put all the episodes together into a movie on Dailymotion in two parts. Worth every freaking second, especially involving the extremely strong, patient, badass, powerful and sexyyyyy male hero He Tingzhou and the way he oozed power and sex appeal just TOOK MY BREATH AWAY! The way he courted our innocent heroine Shuang Xu just gahhhhhh so darn sexy! The indecisive SML was a guy who could not entirely protect Shuang Xu the way he wanted especially if it was a threat against his parents in return, he was not a bad person and he did love Shuang Xu, but he is the hero who would sacrifice his love to save the world, while the more darker and sensual He Tingzhou is the villain who would rather burn down the whole world for his one true love. In his own words, not even God could come between him and the woman he loves.

My feelings are all over the place...wow!

This is not my first watched version of this story but i was intrigued by the leads and how they would execute this story. And i got amazed!!THE PERFORMANCE, THE CHEMISTRY, THE DEVELOPEMENT...i was amazed by how the characters made me feel with them and for them!

Xiao Xue is a beautiful leading lady, her talent and nack for telling a story through her eyes, so marvelous for so young. She carries the story everytime she appears on-screen! She portrayed the trauma and insecurities so well of her character, the constant haunting of being over weight and having (blackmailed) the handsome dream classmate of hers into dating her, like girl went after what she wanted. Him behaving like he doesn`t want to date her and it was HIM WHO REPEATEDLY pushed intimacy on her during the three years they dated. Hmmm, he still wanted his girl,LOL!

This is my first time watching Tian Xiang on-screen and my my what a power house! He stole my freekin heart with his passionate performance!! His looks, grace, passion and just overall Anti-heroic kind of persona, who longed for his first love and was astounded to feel this raw attraction towards his patient who is married with a daughter. The way he looks at her is so sexy my heart could not stop beating! Everytime he lit that cigarette in his anguish,misery and passion he TOOK MY BREATH AWAY!

I have to give this drama TOP STARS since the intense feelings it invoked that i even cried near the end of Male Lead`s realization. I just loveeeee this beautiful angsty second-chance romance! Felt like reading one of my old-school Harlequin romances! It totally fed my romantic soul!

Most bittersweet revenge schemed by the irresistible Male Lead!

Wang YiLei is amongst those very charismatic actors that are leading 2025 of Vertical Dramas. I mean his sharp eyes, cat alike swiftness and the graceful body sturcture tied to how absolutely beautiful of a male creature he is,ahhh my my how he took my breath away! I love the roles he is given lately, and the amount of depth layered in his acting.

The deep soothed hatred towards the people who killed his family did not take his soul away from him, alas he falls in love with his prey and heroine early on. The way he stalked her in that bathroom..without a shirt on WILL FOREVER BE IMPRINTED IN MY MIND!KYAAAAA

I am obsessed with Zheng Hui!

I mean, i totally salivated over him in "The Prince is too Wild" which i rated top stars. "Stealing Beauty" is about a tormented jewelry designer who lives under hiding and control of her boyfriend of eight years. She makesjewelry designs for his company and mistress, serving as a slave for him under the impression that he saved her father and will marry her one day. She wasted eight years on a scum like him. She was in such a terrible environment and relationship that the ML had to take drastic measures to take her out of that predicament on his return. He used coersion and seduction, but the best of all he helped her realize what a beauty and rare talent she has and helped her with her self-esteem. But, he also needed her to make some decisions for herself as well, so when she failed to do that he was rightly hurt and disappointed. I love however, the way he showed her what a faithless and immoral piece of junk her supposed boyfriend is, and kept on seducing her in the dark. So satisfying!
