Honestly, this has a pretty high ranking on my recommendation list next to LOCH, Prince of Lan Ling and Nirvana in Fire. The cast was perfect, you can't go wrong with the cute Luo Jin and charismatic Vaness Wu. The drama itself was very interesting at the start, to journey with Wei Young as she seeks revenge for herself and the real Wei Young but after half the drama, it lost its spark. To me, Wei Young loses her strong character and I felt that the story started going in circles where the evil people always got the upperhand. When compared to the novel, it falls short. Those who read the novel can probably relate to me. I was looking forward to seeing Wei Young punish the evil doers with full force but nope...didn't happen. I only wished Wei Young had at least 50% of the cruelty as in the novel. Regardless, Vaness Wu's character was by far the most interesting and worthwhile character for me.
I think that there's a difference between strong and well-developed villains vs. villains who have crazy mood swings. The best villains I could think of atm is Gwi and Nam Gyu Man.
I'm not sure how I feel about a remake just because nothing beats Num and Nat's version. but we'll have to wait and see. And LOL, I'm just throwing this out there but isn't Joy Rinlanee too young to be playing a mother role!!!!!!!!!! Girl still got the looks and talent to be playing lead roles, JS. No hate but I would have preferred her as Princess Tatsiga instead of Kim, just my preference.
Ep. 29; I'm soon mad with the direction this has taken!!!! Why has it to be Nat the culprit? She was driven mad…
Yas!!!!!! I am so pissed with how the story turned out too, Nat deserves better than this. For once, I sided with the "villian." I was even rooting for her and Krit but no....they had to kill her happiness once more. And what annoys me the most was the cheating husbands reasoning at the end, "I believe the cuteness of the kid will bring gentleness to your heart (something like that)," BS! It may have worked on Nat but pull that shit on me in real life and you're really going to be a goner.
Overall, a good lakorn with great chemistry and a badass nang'ek. The only issue I had with this lakorn was Nat's ending. Don't get me wrong, what she did was wrong, embezzling, killing, kidnapping, etc but I can't help but feel pity and side with her. In a sense, you understand her, her no good husband cheated on her cuz she couldn't have kids, she felt that if he was going to betray her, she should get benefits from it but he didn't give her his inheritance, yet brought the thorn in her heart back to her (Siriya). I would be piss AF too and it would drive me insane just not to her extent. And his reasoning at the end will never ever in my book justify what he did. I prayed really hard that she wasn't the killer b/c she really deserved better.
