On one hand i'm jealous of bai lu's character for getting these hot men in love with her but on the other i can't…
She definitely has the beauty and charm needed for a femme fatale, you could see why men would be crazy for her even if she were to be a bad person, like for her character in the previous lifetime (which is why they definitely picked the right actress!)
Out of pure curiosity : what made you unsatisfied ?I also feel somehow unsatisfied but I can’t put on my finger…
Oh I agree on that ! So there are some times where the nang Rai being raped trope doesn’t disturb me, like in that case (or for the lakorn Norah : the nang rai was raped because her mom had hired people to rape the female lead but because her own daughter went to their house to steal FL and her mom’s money, the rapists found the nang Rai and raped her by mistake. Total karma, so I loved it) But the problem is that Thai writers use this trope waaaaaaaaay too often and most of the time, it’s unnecessary
Not exactly… it’s much more complex than that…It’s more about fixing the regrets of the past life… as…
One is her first love, the only man she truly loved in the past life. But they can’t be together because they caused each other too much wounds One is her childhood friend who’s crazy about her but she feels only friendship and guilt towards him because she also hurt him and turned him into a monster in the past life (but he also deeply traumatized her so she can’t be with him even in this lifetime) And the male lead is a man she’s very afraid of because due to past life’s knowledge, she knows his secrets, how cunning he can be and more importantly : he caused her to die. But the more he gets to know her in this life, the more he grows fascinated.
Not very optimistic, to be honest… Well, who knows, maybe I’ll be proved wrong And I hope this will fasten the productions for others dramas from this author (I’m still waiting my Malicious Empress of Military Lineage and my Ill-Fated Consort !)
Thé beginning : they spend the night together because they were both drugged by her best friend (OMG, could it be more morally questionable and cliche) Second : when she wakes up, she cries for 5 minutes and he just throws money at her, thinking she tricked him. Seriously, dude ? And then afterwards, she’s just angry that he threw his money at her (right, totally nails at the reaction of a rape victim 😓). And this doesn’t make the guy look like a chauvinistic jerk… Then he offers her a marriage contract for a stupid reason : his granny likes her (well, my granny likes the 50 years old baker who has 2 kids oh my age, should I marry him ?) And then later there’s her friend who has the worst perm ever (are these tentacles ? Can we get wifi with these ? Or is it to hide Easter Eggs) and a dress which seems to be a bathing suit (I’m not even exaggerating : you can see her WHOLE LEGS) who comes back and is like « hey buddy, I know I made you have sex with him but I like him ; give him to me » and ML exposes how she sends FL into her bedroom. And OMG, classic reaction of a doormat FL, she’s like « You’re my best friend so Why did you do this to me ? » with the classic tears in her eyes so that we would feel touched by her sadness. This actually gets me a tear… oh no wait, just realized that that this is a fly that flew in my eye, little b***. And that second female lead as curly as the French brand of aperitif is now screaming « this was all supposed to be mine ! Give it back ! » And there also the guy whom she likes but who actually turns out to be a b*** just like that poor fly… no wait, this is actually insulting towards the fly, by the way the fly and I are all good now : she flew into my eye, I almost crashed her, so we decided we’re even but now I owe her an apology for the insult. So… we have the rape incident being trivialized that offers us a steamy sex scene to make us forget that their is rape on both sides (because we viewers are dumb and without any ability to judge) and brings the leads together, a male lead who doesn’t deserve to have the same first name that the male lead of my favorite Chinese novel , the nonsensical writing and the doormat female lead that we’re supposed to find cute and innocent and not stupid and cringey and that I was even disappointed to not see being slapped by the villain (because sometimes that’s the only reason why I stay when there’s a doormat female lead : to see her turn the other cheek… AND GETS THE SMACK THAT SHE’S BEGGING FOR IN HER ALMIGHTY KINDNESS). And now I wrote a whole thesis (my apologies really, I’m a writer so I can’t help but carry away when I do critics). Hope you’ll enjoy this more than I did
But careful with your eyes : I’ve never seen so many bad cliches and stereotypes lining up since Look Up There’s Starlight And to think a screenwriter was paid for that…

It’s more about fixing the regrets of the past life… as for the 3 guys… it’s REALLY complicated
They released way too much material now and haven’t taken it down ; moreover, they keep releasing
Well, who knows, maybe I’ll be proved wrong

Lol, good comparison
I heard about but didn’t find anything
