It could have been MUCH better. They should have followed the novel which was more subtle. But here, they used plenty of cliches, which made the whole thing really predictable
I’ve always noticed that, from the moment I knew the story of Jang Ok Jung I hope they’ll soon adapt her story again, I think there would be plenty of ideas !
Why ?In my opinion, this is the best adaptation of the novel (I totally prefer it to the 2008 version)
Originally, there’s no rape in the novel. The 2008 version just slaughtered the whole story to make it some cliche slap-and-kiss where you don’t even get when and how they could fall in love with all the yelling, slapping, insulting, raping, etc.
But here, they used plenty of cliches, which made the whole thing really predictable
Except that in most of Thai dramas, it’s much worse as the male lead often does it knowingly with little remorse
I hope they’ll soon adapt her story again, I think there would be plenty of ideas !
