AMEN.

the double amnesia really did it for me lol I was like man, this is a kdrama moment right here.
The gram tried so hard to sabotage Yeeo's feelings for Nam.
I feel bad for Nan though, she just really liked Yeeo and got her hopes up cuz the gram was being unreasonable. Gram knew full well Yeeo didn't like Nan and still went for it lol. That's what happen when adults act like they know best for their kids. Not only did Nan get hurt but Yeeo will feel bad about hurting her too. Yes, I am full on blaming the gram for this, don't @ me. I know she only had good intentions but good intentions don't excuse none. Since we're on the topic of Nan, I wanna confess that I thought Yeeo and Nan's moments were pretty nice. Even though Yeeo was fake flirting with her to make Nam jealous, I kind of dig their interactions. I hope to see them cast in main roles in the future as a couple.

Overall, I agree with other comments that this was super easy to get into. It was a fun watch. Although I do have to admit that I skipped a lot of the later parts just because it became pretty predictable what's going to happen. With that being said, because I skipped a lot, I didn't think I would need to know the little details, but apparently I do? Because what was up with that ending? lol. If the reason Yeeo could see Nam was because they have a special connection, then who and how does the female spirit at the end have connections with them? Is she just random? I thought it was an odd little addition to the ending.

damn even though i understand Thai, this dialect thai is still hard to understand. glad someones subbing it.

I Loved the Ost Phleng Rak Chak Chan. The lyrics, the rhythm, the mood. chef's kiss.

the actors are limited lol people from the same channel end up acting with each other again and again. especially popular actors that will sell the show

One of my favs as a kid.

I think those are the only legal options. You'll have to get a VPN to access. There are free VPN extensions available if you just google search it. I for one use Urban VPN which is free. It probably won't work as well as paid VPNs but it works, at least for me. Otherwise you can watch it on irozuku.org. It's not legal, but watching it on any other website, like dramacool or kissasian, or watchasian, you will notice that the videos on there are taken from irozuku and still has the watermark, so might as well watch it at its source, rather than watch it on a third website.

uhm definitely a year late but he is Paul Lee, a famous designer that Kat admires. But their relationship starts off a little rough. They end up working together though because Paul's sister is in a relationship with Peter, who is Kat's cousin. Plus Paul kind of has work relationships with Huisan and the company. Paul and Kat end up meeting a lot for work stuff and that's how they end up falling for each other.

oops my bad, for happy of course lol

Yes

I really liked this drama but it's something that I would prefer to watch once for the experience. A lot of the characters have realistic flaws that makes you understand them. Personally I do but at the same time I also find them frustrating people. For me, particularly Piak's character was intolerable. The selfish jealous ignorant girlfriend is one of the worse type. I felt Chaiyan's frustration and even wonder how he's able to withstand such toxic behaviors. Again, I understand why she's doing what she's doing, but I don't have to like or agree with it. There's tons of other toxic behaviors, both with the ML and FL, her and her mother, Piak and Chaiyan etc, but overall, there isn't a "bad" person. Just people who are blinded by their own feelings and want to have what they want and act out in behaviors you would commonly label the "villain". The only genuinely bad people would be the mother's husband and Pim. They got their deserving ending so happy ending lol.

The chemistry between Mark and Yaya is chef's kiss. The scene that I like the most is after Thit found out that Jee really did run his girlfriend over and killed her, and he became cold and verbally abusive to Jee again. They had the fight in her apartment but when they both got hurt, they got worried about each other's injuries like they used to, and when Jee touched his injured forehead and asked if it hurt and Thit brought her hand down to his chest and said that's where it hurt. I couldn't deal with the feels. Perfection. Their journey from enemies to lovers is a nicely developed one, imo. There's very subtle changes that add up in the end. From the way Thit looks at Jee and how Jee responds to him over time, the tension. Again, chef's kiss.

I honestly can't handle Yaya's crying face. When I see her cry, I end up taking in her energy and cry too. I watched this late at night, like 2 to 3 am, and had a whole bed of tissues lol.

Definitely give this a watch and be the judge.

So im on episode 7 and uhm, i dont like how things are going. Kaew is so problematic in that she won't accept the easy way out and would rather burden herself to make things harder for other people around her. She doesn't wanna go with the old guy but she wont accept Khun Chai's help with the operation on her dad either. And even though she doesn't want to go with the old guy, she won't voice her opinion outloud either to the public that she doesnt want to, instead just silently sits through his advances then gets saved later by Khun Chai. The old guy is influential of course, but this is the public we are talking about. If you say no and he still force you, then he also has an image and reputation to keep too. If Khun Chai already offered to do the operation to help her and if she accepted, she wouldnt need to burden him with the old guy. She wants to be kind and be useful, so do that after Khun Chai has helped. Rejecting his offer because she doesnt want to "burden" him makes zero sense since her priority is her father's survival. I would burden anyone i can and make myself useful later, especially if i know Khun Chai is a kind person who wont take advantage of me. Her way to dealing with things just unnecessarily complicates everyone around her and puts herself in more danger. Its very hard to sympathize with her when imo most of her decisions are wrong.

I think im going to drop this at ep7. A fake marriage is probably a very heavy "burden" on Khun Chai, if compared to him just doing the operation and she forfeiting her title. And yet this burden is okay now that she's dug herself too deep into this messy situation. I dont know, i like misunderstandings that have valuable explanation, but not the kind like this where they just do things because the FL feels etc etc. If she had just logically forfeited the title and let Khun Chai do the operation, she wouldnt have been in so much trouble that would need the help of other people at all.

Based on the synopsis i thought Khun chai was going to sympathize and propose the marriage to help her get out of the situation, then as they get to know each other, they fall in love. But instead, it looks like they already fell in love, then proposed the fake marriage last minute when things got too out of hand. Neither is better than the other, but my expectation of the synopsis makes the latter of the two less appealing. And then added to my points earlier about how Kaew does a lot of things that lead herself down this path, it just doesnt make this drama very enjoyable for me.

One thing i really like though are the other brothers and how supportive they are. One brother gets hung up so the other swoops in to help. Its very cute and endearing. Like when they all worked together to save Kaew in ep 7.

Toro in this drama is the reason I have a thing for dudes with slightly longer hair. It's all his fault.

I watched some interviews and both James and Ice said they thought this would be a lighthearted rom-com. Same. I didn't expect so much fight scenes. The investigation part was fun but most of their hard work on what seemed like some pretty obvious villains was unsatisfactory. Like what they found was pretty predictable since the beginning. I thought they overexplained a lot of things, basically spoon feeding information.

To me, this drama felt like 60% action vs. 40% romance. They start off as enemies and it develops slowly until mostly to the final episode for anything solid to happen. If you want more romance with a lot of sweet scenes then this might not be the one for you.

I liked this, but I was slightly confused in the beginning. In the beginning their feelings weren't considered "love" yet so I don't understand why Rin would cry whenever Duangsawad roped Saran into her little shenanigans. Like when Saran almost slept with Duang and Rin was standing outside crying. Did she cry because she was hurt by love or was she crying because she was hurt by his irresponsibility as a husband? She felt hurt other times too but they weren't "in love" yet, they just appreciated each other's presence as husband and wife (on Rin's part, more so as a responsibility to her adoptive fam), so I found her actions a little contradictory to the story. Maybe if they had done the crying a little later on when she's shown to have fallen for him, it would fit more?

This contradictory behavior doesn't apply to Saran because it was clear right away he's starting to like Rin, but wants to put up front. He still liked Duang when she almost got him to sleep with her, but he liked and appreciated Rin just slightly more to stop.

Minor nitpick and not sure if it's just the quality, although I did watch this HD on youtube channel, but it looked like they put this lakorn under a filter? It looked like they had a soft filter on. James pale face was so soft and blurred. It was just slightly distracting.

No subs. HD quality. Rerun on Ch3 youtube channel. watch here https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL0VVVtBqsouqxPqgMZXfG4NSKDPataicF

I dont think there are "official" subs for this so if you want subs, you can find it on dramacool with fansubs. Found it here https://dramacool.pe/padivarada-episode-2.html

I didn't realize this was a remake. I watched the 2005 version with Ken and Janie back in the days as a kid so my memory is hazy, but I think there's definitely more comedy-esque vibes with this one compared to the 2005 version (it could be just my memory though cuz I recall it being so intense and forceful back then. The comedy is a nice addition.) (edit: nvm. i just rewatched the 2005 ver and comedy is still the same lol must've been my young mind twisting my memories)

Overall I think it's okay. If you're into the Male lead outwardly being an ass throughout the entire show but secretly cares, and the female lead being strong headed but also too nice for her own good, then this is for you. A lot of dramatics but nothing I would consider abnormal for Thai standards. I would consider both of them tsunderes. On the outside harsh toward each other but on the inside swooning like idiots.

Yep, I don't want them to be like the Thai BL actors where they are paired for every BL or paired outside of work. Imo it can get stale because I think the fun in acting is to try all sorts of roles and ace it, not maintain comfortable in a good role everyone likes. (I think they've been doing that so applauds to them). And Definitely agree on the crime story idea. I wanna see them in action together.

I actually don't want them to be lovers, tbh (In a new project of course. CM s2 is welcomed any day). I think it's good to expand out to different character types as they work together again. This time I heard they were gonna be rivals so it would be interesting to see how their characters interact.

Some people find it boring, apparently. It all comes down to preferences. But objectively, this was a solid BL. People may not like it due to personal reasons but objectively this has a lot of good stuff. Both as a BL and just as a drama/story.
