boring for me
this series was not my cup of tea and from looking at the pattern, this director's work might not be for me
pam and rak were adorable but i feel like this show only explores them on a surface level. we get to know a little bit about them and they are immediately thrust into the relationship. the lying and dating her brother part should have been major conflicts but they got solved out fast. then we get a repetitive cycle of pam and rak being all in love, especially the morning wake up calls. we don't get to know them anymore outside their relationship. another one of the directors flaws pop up here, we don't have any idea of how much time has passed unless its explicitly told to us. we don't know how long pam and kawi dated, how long rak and pam were dating before they said their i love yous etc. in the last episode they tell us how much time has passed but nothing abt the characters change, physically or emotionally.
the whole nene thing was another repetitive cycle. we had one round of nene walking around with hate for the whole family for some reason and a master plan, both which we don't know. the next round was her repeating that she is one of his children. her hate/plan was very flawed, like one look and u can tell that man does not care abt his family, so hurting them does not give him any pain. her entire focus was on rak and kawi so all of her scenes were boring. oat was also such a wasted character. her scenes with nene were also the same thing happening multiple times, maybe once she gave some advice but that's it. they didn't even give her much outfit changes, it felt like she was wearing the same thing the whole time.
i wasn't that emotionally connected to any character, so the whole grandma story and the cafe stories were boring too.
i will give my flowers to the director where its deserved cause the cinematography and aesthetics were out of the world. the songs were great too. the design of rak's room??? amazing.
emi and bonnie did a good job with their acting, i have no complaints there.
(bonnie is such a cutie, i want to put her in my pockets)
so overall this was not for me, i can see other people loving it though. hope to see emi and bonnie together in more projects!
