Charming New and adorbs Prapai
I havent seen the chinese ver of this so it was a fresh start for me. But after seeing this, I can probably imagine Lin Yi playing this role as well, so i guess there is that.
First of all, the story line is quite common for the trope. Not that much to talk about. But in terms of casting, i’d say, New is such a spot on to play such a prince charming role, and even when Pupha was being the unreasonable nerdy guy who awkwardly cant tolerate girls, New nailed it. And to think that Newwie said he almost give up playing the role because he thinks it was too hard for him! This is the first time I was able to like an actor playing both hetero and BL dramas with no problem, or maybe i’m just too much of a Newwie fangirl? Lol. And as for the FL, i was quite surprised to like the character. Kramuk is cute and i like her silliness as Prapai (why is it that thai dramas like to use some sort of Pai name for the leads? Lol) She was adorable and beautiful as well. And to know that this is her first series, it was quite amazing. However, the second leads need a bit more though. Personally, I think chimon is probably too young and less experienced for the role, however he did good enough. Coming from The Warped Effect, I was quite familiar with Gigi, but in this, her chemistry with Chimon is so and so. Time did well as the third wheel LoL and i think his character gave a convincing rival to someone like Puphaa. Not to mention, he was funny and sincere to Pai as well, and the fact that he took his failure with dignity makes me like the character more.
There might be a few cringe awkward scenes (mainly the scenes where Puphaa needs to speak chinese (did New speak Chinese a little by any chance? I was wondering why they did not just dubbed the Chinese conversation, it may not be that awkward otherwise. Lol). The other scene I have problem with is when Prapai got lost in the jungle after stupidly running around trying to catch butterflies. Lol. I mean, from the compound of a big building/?hotel into a jungle without having to go through some sort of obstacles or fence? Quite hard to believe imho.
All in all, it was a nice watch and with an eye candy like New (mygoddd why is he so handsomeee lol) , it was an even better experience! 🤣🤣
