Lol. He has a wife and a kid tho. Its not good to want to see married men shirtless. XD

Yeah. I have noticed that too. Only his name changes. Even his profession is usually the same - CEO of some super successful company.

What a sad reality you have around you then. I really hope you have not experienced it first hand. I have noticed it can be a cultural thing. Men in some countries are more prone to cheating than in others. In my country it is not THAT common. It happens, but its not like most men do it.

I came back here just to see if the rating had dropped since I watched it a few years ago. HOW can this have such a high rating? Did people seriously think this was a good drama? No wonder so many people are in abusive relationships, if they think this drama is ok.

Yeah. I have a few things when it comes to dramas where I draw the line. One of them is infidelity/cheating. If its one of the supporting characters or it takes a small portion of the plot I can ignore it. But when it is 1 or both of the main leads being the cheaters and the story revolves around it, then I am out.

I still remember how disappointed and disgusted I felt when I watched The Handsome Cowboy. Other dramas usually have a tag warning or it says in the synopsis but back when I watched there was little information about the drama and I was horrified to find out that the male lead was a disgusting piece of s***.

About this drama tho, do you understand Thai? Because as far as I know this is not being subbed.

Haha. I think when you make a movie, you have a limited time to make something interesting. But this movie was mostly draggy scenes, random events and characters, a boss who acted like a jerk for 80% of the movie and then suddenly you find he is actually head over heels for her and then the end of the movie comes. Also the supporting characters are just there. No backstory or personality. They just exist. And the main leads, only the female lead has one, sort of.

You know nothing about the male lead. He is just someone who is there yelling at the female lead for almost the entire movie, then next thing you know he is asking her to date him because she is clueless and was not able to figure out that all the attention he gave her (overworking her, yelling at her for every single thing she does or doesnt, just straight out looking at her like he would fire her any second) were signs of his affection.

I mean, its only a movie, so its not like you would be wasting a lot of time. Maybe start watching it and see if it manages to hook you or not.

Yeah. I usually put them on hold if I want to wait for the rest of the episodes to be subbed so I can binge watch or if it has not been subbed for a while.

Maybe I missed that detail about the cellphone. It was still a frustrating drama to watch tho. The misunderstanding lasted for way too long.

Haha yeah. I also have a few dramas in my currently watching that I am not actually CURRENTLY watching. I watched like a few episodes and then either there were no more so I temporarily moved to something else or am still trying to decide if I will keep watching or drop it. XD

No, dont be. You actually helped me to finally decide to drop it. I watched 2 episodes back when Neko started subbing it and was never able to go back to it. I could tell it was one of those dramas where the female lead would be everyone’s punching bag and because of the age gap I knew the romance would probably be extremely slow.

I have watched other dramas with similar elements, but at the moment I am more busy than usual so I have to be a little more strict with the dramas I pick since I do not have time to watch all of them.

I have probably watched something similar to MBJ in the past few years but just cant remember it. If you do like male leads who treat the female lead right, then one drama I can remember is Jao Sao Jum Yorm.

You might have already watched it tho.

Did you end up watching this one? I dropped it after watching only 2 episodes. I read some spoilers and I do not think I have patience for this kind of drama right now.

Thank you for replying. I think I might skip this one since the romance is so slow and there is a lot of slapping and abusing of the female lead.

I have already watched Marn Bang Jai. But good recommendation. I have watched almost all dramas subbed by Neko and most of them are some of my favorite thai dramas.

The story seems quite interesting. But the last episode airs at the end of next month. So I will be patient and wait before I start because I know I will be just like you if I start it right now.

But without subs, right?

When does it start? I dont mind spoilers.

I had this on my plan to watch list for a long time, trying to decide if I would watch it or not. I am not a big fan of remakes, unless they happen many years later when the video and sound quality of the original is not up to the standards anymore, so at least 10 years later.

While trying to decide I thought, I could just go and watch the original again, plus I do not like the pairing they did here because I personally cannot see any chemistry between the leads. I like them both but not together.

Anyway, I ended up deciding not to watch it after all.

I am not really into political dramas, but I saw so many comments praising the drama and saying how cute the main couple is that now I have to at least give it a try.

Your comment has a random dot at the bottom and it made me look dumb because I thought my screen had something and was trying to clean it up. LOL

I think you might have tagged me by mistake. I have not read the novel so I cannot answer your question. But my experience tells me there will be one for sure in the drama.
