I agree, well written. The most beautiful and realistic part of the drama is the relationship between the two main characters, their portrayal of how beautiful human connection is astounding. It tells the truth of reality, that the most impacting relationships are not the sexualized ones, but the ones that made us bare and vulnerable. The ones that make us reevaluate ourselves when the harshness of the world couldn't. The ones we can't define.
*Spoiler Yes, they didn't know until a while in they're not blood related and their love (now at ep 50) is more like reliable/human love, not per se romantic (e.g. no kisses). Jiang Sheng still calls Liang Sheng brother and doesn't really reciprocate feelings like she does with Tian You.
At episode 50 it is still uncertain lol. Both have a good chance but I'm leaning towards the other guy because…
I actually really like. It's the first drama I watched past 30 episodes and the cinematography/background/outfits/story and everything is very beautiful. No one is arrogant really, situations kinda realistic. Yes, it is a handful but that's why I watch alongside subbing (gradually) and forward as I please. :)
I think it is more realistic than you think. When your left or not being loved and have to fend for yourself, it breaks all trust you have in others.... and people wait forever just to be in their presence of loved ones again.
I watched it twice over the years. Even Though it could have been better produced and have a better storyline, it never failed or bored me. It also, the most important part, impacted me and left me with questions about life. When you start to think about a drama or movie in the weirdest moments, that's when you know it is special.
Can we just take a second to appreciate supporting roles P'Sun's (café owner) and also Prize's (Sanson's ex) looks... Like if they're not a main role in this drama, can they be the main role in my life?
Its honestly sad, because how terrible a role model it is for anyone,
especially to a country that is not in the top of (ie) UNDP's Gender Inequality Index (GII) and for the rest of the UPrince, the other couples are not all bad, but some also have a similar (to a lesser degree) possessive relationship.
The drama also ruins foreigners' judgement on Thailand, when Thailand offers many more (positive) qualities.
