They should've kept the English title as "As long as the sky has the sun" rather than "My forever sunshine"Not…
Agreed! When they translate it to English, it really loses the actual meaning. It made the drama sounds so cheesy. :P It is a good drama but I'm embarrassed to tell people its title lol thus its hard to recommend it.
I think the one that I hated the most would be 'Moonlight Drawn by Cloud'. The international title is 'Love in the Moonlight'. >.>
Thank you for this review. I have no idea why people are so forgiving with rape when it is such a big and hideous crime. If I were you, this drama will get 1/10 lol esp it makes no sense when the character is not well written and didnt deserve any forgiveness. You dont just wake up and suddenly change.
However, seeing you comments below, you really hate with passion Lakorn's slap/kiss storylines. So, it makes me wonder why you still watch them if I may asked since most of them did normalise rape in such weird way.
I badly want to watch it with NF subs but it's unfortunately not available in my country :(
Use VPN to watch Netflix from other country. :D
But seriously, I had a blast watching the Netflix's version since the 4k picture quality is everything -- and no watermark at all haha. The netflix subs are more technical -- so some context in the conversations give a different meaning or more hurtful and clearer than the fansub. I think the most obvious one would be when Thit & Jee at the fishing island. Jee wakes up when Thit wants to feed her the cold medicine and Jee pushed him away in an afraid manner. The fansub has Thit said 'You know how to be afraid of me?' but the Netflix sub is 'You are afraid of men?' which is a mocking remarks for Jee in reference on how easy for her to sell her body like the rumour he heard of her. But her reaction surprised him on how guarded she actually is around men. So the context of the whole thing was different with the Netflix sub. Plus, a lot of the conversations makes more sense with Netflix, like when I watched the drama with the fansubs, I always wonder why Jee & Chaiyan didnt refute that they arent lovers many times in front of Piak & Thit but actually, they did many times with the Netflix subs -- as the Netflix subs are clearer & not ambiguous.
I just cannot find a lakorn as good as this. I'm trying to understand why the two main leads haven't acted together…
I watched many dramas throughout my life but their chemistry is definitely without contest the best I have ever seen. I cant believe how both of them just radiate with passion and angst in every scene lol
Omg I don’t know how much more of this I can take. I hate the main male lead. I don’t want him anywhere near…
He was cruel but his hate was justified since she 'killed' the person that he loves and 'move on' with her life without any consequences.
He's naturally nice and not a jerk which I appreciate which in the end was believable why the female lead falls head over heels with him.
But I agree, Jee is really amazing though. She's one of my very fave characters in dramaland. I'm really amazed with all the things she did in the drama and not to mention, her kind soul. :D
Can anyone provide me a good streaming link with English subtitel?
Now its available at Netflix starting 15 December. And my goodness watching this drama in 4k is really everything. And the subs are much better too. Some of the scenes gave me different context and I ended up loving the drama even more
Seriously, rewacthing this drama in 4k at Netflix is just like heaven. Everything is more colourful and vibrant – I can see all the tears, sweats and their facial expressions more clearly – its like rewatching a new drama all over again since all the new details keep surprising me. And Netflix’s sub is much better than the fansub I must say. I ended up loving the script even more since its more accurate, spicier, and pierced to your heart even more. Not to mention that the accurate script gives more context to the whole plot – it is also less ambiguous and clearer and most of all more satisfying. It seemed that the Netflix subs are closest to the original writing the writer intended in the first place.
9.5/10 – This drama is literally one of my very favourite dramas ever existed. I can’t believe how much I actually love it but this drama has everything that I ever wanted from a drama be it a great production, tight script, amazing acting, beautiful cinematography and most of all explosive chemistry from the leads. I basically break my own binge record with 14 hours straight without rest – this never happen to me before with any dramas so this record speaks to itself on how addicting the story was. This is the type of drama that is so great that you wonder how the actors will ever top this work with any of their future projects.
I liked how fast paced is the story, so you don’t have to wait for everything to happen. It’s basically one adventure after one adventure so you will not have time to get bored since so many things happen at the same time. I also liked on how it took for a very long time for Thit to get over Tiw’s death and how Jee has never really getting over feeling guilty even though it was never really her fault in the first place. It made the story really realistic and you can somehow relate to the characters and their struggles.
I really thought Mark is great in this role. He does hating really well so all you can feel is his anger and hatred. He also nailed all those subtle expressions be it the embarrassed smiles, the slight happiness smiles, the surprised expressions, the sadness, the disappointments or how he tries to hold his tears when his heart was breaking without overdoing it. You can really see Thit as someone who is cold and rarely show his emotions unless to someone that he loves – those transitions are great to be witness one by one when he slowly warm up and falling for Jee. Yaya as Jee is absolutely wonderful. Aside being so stunningly pretty, she brought life to Jee and made her really stands out as a character. She was really fantastic and I’m just amazed to see all those tears coming from her. But most of all she nailed it as someone really yearns for love while at the same time ready to pour all her love to protects the ones that she loves – everything that she do, she do it because of love and purely that without asking anything in return. I love that she is a mixture of strong, sweet, lovely, kind-hearted, talented while at the same time vulnerable and broken – Jee is all of that and Yaya portrayed this character to perfection. Jee is not only beautiful but she probably one of the kindest soul that anyone can encounter in their lives – its perfectly understood why Thit falls for her despite how much he despise her.
And the most awesome thing about this drama is the chemistry between Mark and Yaya. They really the master the arts of chemistry in this drama – I finally understood that you cant fake chemistry no matter how good you are as an actor – you either have it or you don’t and they demonstrate it really well here. Their chemistry is so electrifying that you basically can’t focus on anything else when they’re both on screen – even when they’re screaming to each other, their chemistry was overflowing with passion. I realised it even more on how powerful is their chemistry when I do a rewatch since most of their scenes involves long stares with arrays of emotions. They did it so naturally that you didn’t feel awkward at all and I personally think had other actors required to do the exact same scenes, it would be resulted with an awkward scene instead.
And the OSTs! How perfect and how amazingly it matched the drama. I love it when the songs were played in the drama, it perfectly matched the scene to the core -- it just made each scene even more angsty or sad. The lyrics perfectly matched the characters – Thit for the theme song and Jee for the ending song. I couldn’t ask for more on how flawless is both the melody and lyrics.
Regarding the rewatch value, this drama is probably the most watched drama for any language for me. I lost count on how many times I rewatch this. It largely due to the tight script and the amazing performances but most of all, I think it got to do with how engaging is the chemistry between Mark & Yaya – you just cant turned away. Great drama through and through. Its gonna take a while for me to find other masterpieces like this again.
Yup. The handsome cowboy is a thai drama that unfortunately I will never forget. When I started watching it I…
I'm talking about lakorn in general not any specific drama.
I think those evil acts done by supporting characters are acceptable as they are indeed evil and I understand the writer wants to have dramatic plot to move the storyline. What I cant forgive is when the main characters did it and later it was seen as something forgivable and some even pass it as romance. That one I cant accept since how can I root for a character who is a rapist lol. I dont need my main character to be an angel but they cant be a criminal either OTL
Yup. The handsome cowboy is a thai drama that unfortunately I will never forget. When I started watching it I…
It is! Its actually worst than cheating when you think about it. I mean, how on earth can the writer think a male lead who rape worth to have any redeeming quality lol. I'm so furious! Esp when they've done it sober, know fully well that it is such a vicious thing to do & the female lead resisted strongly during the act. T_T
I'm glad that lakorn tone it down a lot that plot these past few years.

Rape is a very serious crime so never will I ever root for male lead who did that horrible thing and the attempt of the writer to pass it as romance later. OTL
Something without violence against women... NGL, thats a bit hard :/ I'll try to help you out though!Buang Hong:…
The OP didnt recommend Kleun Cheewit but I personally think its the best Lakorn I have ever seen. The rape attempts are done by the bad guy but the FL is strong so she was safe. The chemistry was insane though -- despite the ML truly hate the FL in the first half of the drama. The actings were excellent. I dont think other Lakorn will ever top this drama for me
Examples of disturbing movies from Korea. I know some and dislike it but I really want to know your list.
On top of my head right now are mostly movies from Japan: - Real (Starring Sato Takeru & Ayase Haruka) - Traces of Sin (This one has really disturbing & interesting twist)
