Destiny Will Bring Us Back Together

lovefia

Posted on April 14, 2018

There is something startlingly magical about this lakorn, Buppae Sanniwas. It has left its imprint in my heart, one that has taken residence and will refuse to budge. I can’t remember a lakorn that is just pitch perfect from start to finish. A lakorn that I barely knew what to make of for starters, but has surprisingly and consistently nailing it in every episode thereafter, then closing out the finale with no less finesse than its opening.

For the Love of Buppae Sanniwas

lovefia

Posted on April 5, 2018

Wow you guys, this episode 14. It’s another level, really. If you’re going to watch any lakorns this year – heck – if you’re going to watch any lakorns ever, do watch this. Just trust us crazy, bug bitten, fever ridden, fans of Buppae Sanniwas! I mean, have you guys seen me this hyped up about a lakorn before? Ok don’t answer that, I know I get pretty excited over some lakorns in the past. But I don’t believe I have loved, crushed, or obsessed this badly about both the hero and heroine. This is one of those shows where it keeps you wanting more, craving more, and falling in love with every cast of characters. They’re all really well written and it’s hard to hate them, even Constantine has several moments of pity, and he’s supposed to be the big bad. And that’s just the thing, no one character is truly bad, they just make bad choices. At the end of the day, it’s the choices that define them, choices that get written into history.

Buppae Sunniwas – Episode 13 – Losing our collective minds

lovefia

Posted on April 4, 2018

Hello? Is everyone still breathing after watching this episode? It’s a double whammy kind of day. Just when we think that the biggest part of this episode is that Phor Daed returns home from Paris- that 44 minutes he was gone, he was dearly missed – we are in for a rude awakening. It’s like show is telling us that we’re getting way too comfortable adjusting to Ayutthaya lifestyle and swooning over our Ayutthaya man, that our life requires some shaking up. I’m a mixed of shaken, jarring and all encompassing stupefied, for the lack of a better word. Not to mention, my eyes are still swollen! I definitely did not see this coming..

Romancing Ayutthaya– Buppae Sunniwas

lovefia

Posted on March 30, 2018

Three episodes left, you guys. Its tumultuous finale will air on April 11th, to be followed by 3 special episodes. I think it’s important to step back and reflect upon history and what has happened so far in our story: set in the 16th century, pitting a present day archaeology grad student among people of the Ayutthaya era. A comment from Khun Loong stood out for me, “She came because she needed to come.” What, pray tell could be her purpose in arriving in King Narai’s reign? It couldn’t possibly be to change history because our hero is a fictional character and isn’t impacted by history like Kosa Lek, Kosa Pan, Constantine Phaulkon, or the King himself and his future successors. We also know that Katesurang tries her darnest not to impact history by withholding her situation, and as it stands, things always play out according to history anyway.

Buppae Sunniwat – Episode 10 Recap “I won’t break my promise”

lovefia

Posted on March 22, 2018

This week’s episodes continue the upward spiral of breaking ratings records and fanning the lakorn fever. I think what makes it even more exciting, then, let’s say a good lakorn that people watch a few years ago, is the influence of social media i.e. Twitter and Facebook. Now fans swarm Twitter with its appropriate hashtags and gone are the old ways of watching lakorns. You can fangirl with other fangirls, people even tweet pictures of their viewing parties, complete with looking the part! So it’s no surprise that the ratings skyrocketed and the lakorn is the number one trending on Twitter. But let’s not kid anyone here, the Show itself has a great story at its core, phenomenal directing, and amazing actors to bring the story to life. Namely, the romantic throughline of Phor Daed (Pope Thanawat) and Katesurang (Bella Ranee), their chemistry is so on point, creating some serious squealing every time they are together. I kid you not, I think I live for one of Phor Daed’s smiles now, so don’t break his heart, Katesurang! (We’ll get more into that later).

More Servings of Buppae Sunniwas, Please

lovefia

Posted on March 19, 2018

Have we all survived the long weekend without Buppae Sunniwas? I know some of you are rewatching for the umpteenth time and probably has memorized all of Khun Meun’s swoony stares, his close proximity to Katesurang every chance he gets (like dude can’t get any closer and I love it) and Katesurang’s ever constant vigil of staying exactly the same, which is why I love her. She’s strong, confident, sassy, and as fearless as they come. I wouldn’t wager to say that she’s a woman of our modern time, because she’s so much more than that. Her clever rebuttal, quick wit and knowledge seeking personality has really done a number on Khun Meun, you can slowly see how she has unraveled him from the inside out. It’s a thing of beauty to behold.

Buppae Sunniwas [Open Thread] 3-8

lovefia

Posted on March 14, 2018

Squeee. Episode 7 was so good, I’m so sad there weren’t more to watch. I’m falling in love with Khun Muen falling in love with Katesurang. Every time he looks at her, I die a little inside (of the happy variety!) Wow, Pope is born to play an Ayuthayan man. And Katesurang? She’s the best friend you wish you had in Ayuthaya era. You’d think a little corporal punishment may deter her from venturing out, think again. I’m opening up this thread so we can discuss Buppae Sunniwas up to tomorrow’s episode. Life isn’t permitting me to delve deeply into writing reflections on this show thus far, but I’m up to deep discussions in the comment section. Tell me your thoughts – I will chime in as much as possible! P.S. I could watch the characters in this show just going about their day all day, that’s my favorite thing about the show, it highlights what it’s like to live in that time. Especially our duo who likes to peer up at the moon, waxing hilarious poetry.

Buppae Sunniwas – Fated Couple? Episode 2

lovefia

Posted on February 27, 2018

What is apparent as we finish up the second episode of Buppae Sunniwas is its comedic relief. As Katesurang settles into Karakate’s life and realizes that she didn’t travel in time to live a leading lady’s life, but instead possessed the body of an infamous, well hated, villain’s body, she decides she’ll take the experience as a jaunt through the history books. From the get go, this show sets its own distinction from other time travel lakorns – we are not like Tawee Pope, nor do we strive to be like them.

Time travel binge, anyone? Love Destiny & Love beyond Time

lovefia

Posted on February 22, 2018

When you go from watching nothing, to binging somethings, I can’t imagine a more fun endeavor than a time traveling premise. This topic has always been a favorite of mine, ever since Tawee Pope 1994, which is a lakorn that made sense of a woman who steps into the past through a mirror portal, where she finds her soulmate and saves the world. It’s been a story that many cannot hold a candle to, despite its best efforts and remakes. The two time travel lakorns that I’m watching simultaneously are Buppae Sunniwas (starring Pope Thanawat and Bella Ranee) and Buang Banjathorn (starring Mario Maurer and Mai Davika). My first impressions specifically speaks to two key components: does the time travel portal front make sense, and whether the storytelling captivates an audience (as subjective as that may be).

Looking Forward

lovefia

Posted on December 27, 2017

Dearest Readers,

How are you? Happy belated everything – Christmas, Birthday, New Years – wait I’m not late on that. I hope the year has been kind to you. As you know, this year has been an eventful one for me personally. I welcomed the birth of my second (and last!) son – who is now 7 months old. I’ll let that sink in. I’ve aged a year wiser too and much of my day is wrapped up in work, play (with kiddos, another type of fun), eat, breathe – rinse, repeat. But in between the daily grind and the sleepless nights, there’s an indescribable magic. I look at these two adorable faces (and one older, very handsome face too) and I think there’s so much to be thankful for. This year has indeed been kind to me.
