JimmySea Save the Series
The drama really picks up after Episode 2, once the story shifts to Mae Hong Son. The village setting is breathtaking, and hearing the northern dialect adds so much charm to the atmosphere. At its core, this is a warm story about beliefs, family, and loneliness, and Sea’s acting shows noticeable growth here. Both Jimmy and Sea deliver strong performances, and the special interview segment in the finale is a charming reminder of their chemistry.
Unfortunately, that’s where the praise stops. The thriller subplot feels half-baked, with the “big reveal” lacking any real suspense which viewers can spot the villain from the start. The side couple brings some cuteness, but their acting still comes across stiff and monotonous, especially in facial expressions.
Originally, I was leaning toward a solid 7/10, but Jimmy and Sea’s performances elevate the overall experience.
