Mik Playing Twins in Divided Heart

Feature article

lovefia

Posted on June 29, 2022

Channel 7’s latest weekend installment, Divided Heart or Sai Luerd Song Hua Jai, has Mik Thongraya playing twins Jay and Joe who could not be more different. We open with Jay, who works in the police forensics and he discovers his father dead at a car accident scene. Based on the evidence, he deems it a suicide. Joe is also notified but Jay doesn’t think he appears sad or disheartened since Jay has a falling out with dad, whom he believed to have caused his mother’s death (she also committed suicide), by cheating on her with her sister. Family drama, anyone? Though even with both parents gone now, the J’s cannot see eye to eye, because the biggest sibling rivalry in their book is winning over Noon’s (Thisa Varitthisa) heart, their childhood friend.

In the mood for lakorns – Channel 3 upcoming shows

lovefia

Posted on June 15, 2022

Channel 3 has released their upcoming lakorn list for the latter half of the year, and there is something for everyone. Which ones are you looking forward to the most? We have some great pairings coming up, and that is probably the main reason why I would tune in – chemistry is almost everything! Granted, story is important too, so I plan to write first impressions for the show that catches my interest.

Koo Wen – My Friend, The Enemy – First Impressions

lovefia

Posted on June 10, 2022

Unprecedented. That is one word to describe the newest primetime lakorn, Koo Wen, starring Pon Nawasch, Pat Patricia and Mo Monchanok, as three newbie lawyers fighting to join a top law firm. The most attractive part about this show, aside from the very attractive actors – the eye candy brought me here – it is the refreshing story that has me tuning in for more. Ready or not, Good Feeling Production is going to throw us in for a loop.

All I need is love and a cup of coffee

lovefia

Posted on June 1, 2022

I came for Bua, but I stayed for Khunkhao.

Who is Khunkhao, pray tell? The pra’ek pictured above. Simply put, I love the way he looks at the nang’ek, as if she is the prettiest girl he has seen, as if she baffles him but at times surprises him with her perception. I call this a budding romance. This daily lakorn, Om Fah Ohb Din, does so many things well, it is poignant and often funny, but more importantly, it gives us a much-needed Thai gentleman, and a romance show worth pursuing. It is what I have been missing in lakorns these days.

Krong Nampueng (Sweet Prison) – First Impressions

lovefia

Posted on April 22, 2022

Krong Nampueng would win a challenge called “You Know You Are Watching a Lakorn” if there were one. But Weir as Chalompol (aka Pon) is actually the perfect fit because he makes all of the tropes so believable with just one look in his eyes. In fact, when he is on screen it is very hard to look away, you may fall into the depths of those brown, soulful eyes, just as the female lead does, Prapye Ramida as Sai Nampueng. The title is a play on her name, sweet prison, or imprisoned by Nampueng, however you decipher it, Pon is going to be at the mercy of Nampueng.

Jao Sao Jamloey – First Impressions

lovefia

Posted on February 17, 2022

Behold, a bride looking stunned at a man that is leaning close, he may or may not be her groom, he may or may not be her savior. But her senses are heightened, she is confused, and his voice sounds ever familiar. How did she get here?

I mean, it’s just the first episode, Fia, don’t get your hopes up so high. Chill, girl. These are some of the things I tell myself as I am sucked into this story full of visually stunning cinematography and rich characters. Jao Sao Jamloey, or Prisoner Bride, premiered this week on Channel 7 and I may or may not be a teeny bit excited after the first episode

Ingjan (Hana Lewis) is in trouble. An aristocrat by birth, Ingjan is left with a palace and jewelry business to safeguard. Unfortunately, Aunt has squandered all of the wealth and corners Ingjan to save the inheritance by marrying the loan shark. Ingjan refuses, as she has her principles, so Aunt colludes with the loan shark to drug her and force her hand. Whether the drug is weak or the will of her late father is strong, Ingjan stirs from the sleep induced drug and manages to escape. Stumbling through the hotel lobby and across the driveway, she nearly collides into a jeep.

Rustic Son In-Law & Hi-so Daughter In-Law – First Impressions

lovefia

Posted on February 16, 2022

Not so rustic here, Mr. Fine Kem

Aired on Valentine’s Day, Channel 7 and Media Scene presents Koei Baan Rai Sapai Hi-so, which translates to Rustic Son In-Law & Hi-so Daughter In-Law. This is Kem and Mookda’s second lakorn together after So Wayree, and you can tell how natural they are together. It is not a heavy storyline like So Wayree, this lakorn is touted as romantic comedy – there are the usual slapstick humor, but I also found the small things that the characters do to be funny – it’s a pretty cast and a delightfully good OST. You can watch this subbed at Nekoland.

Karat Rak (Carat’s Love) – First Thoughts

lovefia

Posted on November 21, 2021

Karat Rak aired this weekend – I caught the first episode during Nanowrimo no less (will this add to my 50K word goal?) but I had to take a detour with Anne Thongprasom and James Jirayu who plays the leads in this show. Yes, my forever nang ek (female lead) pairing up with her junior! I had to tune in and grab my popcorn. Typical Sunday night fashion of experiencing a new show for the first time, forget the notepads and dual monitors.

I wondered if this pairing would work! Will James character call her P’Karat? Why is this idea so exciting? And after watching the first episode, I like where this story is going. It is FUNNY, adorable and holds a good balance of zany and innocent. While my enjoyment could be because I am a fan of the leads (who are we kidding, drama watching is a very subjective thing) but I will say that the characters and how they were written is quite enjoyable on its own. Nonfans can enjoy this romcom too!

Tono the Tiger

lovefia

Posted on November 4, 2021

Today I watched Tono’s Love in the Twilight, or Prajan Daeng (Blood Moon) and I must say, it turned out to be different than what I was expecting. If you recall, Tono was in Duangjai Nai Montra where he played a cursed immortal trying to find a way to end his immortality, so I thought Prajan Daeng may be another cursed predicament of his. But in fact, Prajan Daeng is about Sama who shapeshifts into Tiger Payak, an honorable tiger spirit that protects the wild animals in rural town Dok Daeng. This responsibility usually falls on the village chief (or heir), but Sama (who thinks he is unlucky at a young age) was given the tiger spirit as the chief passes away in his father’s makeshift clinic – a recluse mansion. Sama not only takes on his father’s legacy of being the town’s doctor, he also becomes Tono the Tiger. The should-be village chief’s son, Nontha, resents the fact that Sama possesses the tiger spirit.

*SPOILERS* Character Review and 1st Impressions – Kaen Rak Salap Chatha

lovefia

Posted on June 16, 2021

bodyswap3-1

If you are watching this newest weekend installment, Kaen Rak Salap Chatha – which of course you can head on over to Neko’s for that – you already know two episodes in that this show is surprisingly good. It has a great directorial hand, gritty and stark, matching the tone of this show. The editing is so smooth, you are left to focus solely on the characters, their desperate plight and how they will get out of the situation. By situation, I mean the body swapping, destiny swapping debacle caused by the blood moon. I have written a synopsis on the previous post, so you can get the full details there, but this post will focus on character review and juicy spoilers that you may not see coming. The twist has a twist. You have been warned dear readers – do not proceed if you hate spoilers.
