My Review….
Since this drama is a Thai adaptation of Korean drama Boys Over Flowers and Chinese drama Meteor Garden, the story wasn’t something that I haven’t seen before. Just like them, this drama had incredible chemistry between the leads and great casting and plot development. However, one thing I seem to find a little unsetlling is the over-exaggeration of few scenes in this drama but that may be a cultural difference as well, since a lot of Thai dramas have that as well. Apart from that, the story is fast paced, the female lead is strong and holds her ground most of the time, and the male lead becomes a better version of himself once he meets her. Their interactions for the most part are adorable and genuine. So, for a one-time watch, this is a great candidate. If you are someone who enjoys love-hate stories where the leads start off with hating each other but later find the love of a lifetime, you will enjoy this one. One caveat though is that their version of love is a little toxic at times, so if that is big no-no for you, then watch this at your own risk!
