Hey show, have you heard of stick with what you’re good at? You’re so good with the romantic drama part of this show, why don’t you just do away with the action or plot or whatever you’re trying to convince that you’re good at? Those words that are coming out of Sama’s mouth- professing how much he cares about Waree- daaang, those are some good words. Keep it up! *Swoon*
Waree tries to tag along with Khun Sama on his retaliation against Nai Dij for ambushing him and hurting his right hand man, Pipat. She wants to tag along not to get a scoop and not because she’s a reporter- but because she is worried about Khun Sama’s safety. Heh, the first sign of genuine concern for our hero. But his left hand man assures her that he’s got his boss’ back and she would only distract them. At the gambling house Nai Dij is unsettled at how difficult it is to eliminate Khun Sama. A gunshot is heard nearby and the sound petrifies the gamblers as they scramble. It is Sama and his bodyguard, penetrating the exit crowd with guns in the air.…
The Interview Outside, the rain is pouring against the window pane, but the inside offers a cozy, intimate environment for the interview. Waree is in a state of excitement, for she has been waiting for a few days now, cooped up on the island, waiting for the right time to interview Khun Sama. After all, to him, it’s all about timing. But Sama is in a different state of mind, anxious and not at ease, he is about to reveal his life to a young reporter whom he found a connection with since she was a child. It’s not easy divulging the past filled with pain and rejection. “Let’s go ahead and start,” Waree encourages him with a smile, clasping her hands together. “I…
Ep 2.1 Mon Jantra: Khun Sama is such a tease The smooth boat ride brings Sarawaree to the shores of Koh Yanok, a quiet and private island belonging to Khun Sama. Her first experience with the inhabitants of said island is the opposite of warm, the assistant Pipat and housekeeper Lampang are aloof and uncaring, not to mention highly protective of their boss. But who needs a large welcoming party when you got Khun Sama’s attention all to yourself? Where do I sign up? Waree peers around the spacious living room of the island’s mansion, she had questioned Pipat earlier if Khun Sama had accepted any proposition to film lakorns on the island, but Pipat snidely tells her that his Khun Sama values his…

How do you expect me to love you? When in my head, I can never forget The problems that keeps me up at night I fear it will be the same How could I love you?

I’m so excited about this second part of the 3 Musketeers Series that I can barely contain myself. Simply with its title, The Moon’s Enchantment, one is spurred with all sorts of imagination. If Khun Samah (Chakrit Yamnarm) is the lunar, than our feisty reporter Sarawaree (Margie Rasri) will fall under his spell. Or is this a story about real enchantments? Whatever the case may be, I’m sold. This pairing is so electric! Part of the fun in watching a lakorn is not knowing what’s going to happen next. Perhaps that is my downfall with Maya Tawan, I remember so much of the original version (it’s embedded in my memory) and the remake just doesn’t measure up to the plot, the characters etc, that…
Brought to us by TV Scene, Raak Boon (The Holy Source) which debuted last weekend, featured Mike Pirath as Lapin/Ton and Margie Rasri as Jae, and it explored the idea of a powerful ancient box that could make your deepest desires come true. Much like a genie indebted to you, this “glong raak boon”- this box of holy source- asks you to repay with three deeds, and upon successful completion, it will grant your greatest wish. The story starts with two people who were chosen by the holy source: Khun Sarat (Ton’s father) and Long (uncle) Tawee (Jae’s mentor.) This happened a long time ago, Long Tawee was a drunkie and his wife had cancer. He wished to abandon his alcoholism and cure his…

Rak Kerd Nai Talad Sod, Love (Happened) in the Fresh Food Market starring Mario Maurer and Margie (pronounced Makkie) Rasri will run its course in 12 episodes, a shorter than average stint as far as lakorn duration goes. The plot has a simple premise, to showcase the lives of market vendors in this fresh food market, most specifically Thong (Mario) who is a newbie, and how his entrance into the market, changed everyone’s lives accordingly. Thong is an easygoing kid from the countryside who came to help his sister in law’s vegetable booth due to her high-risk pregnancy. He falls in “love at first sight” with Kim-Lang (Margie) who was the daughter of Kim-Huay, a fish vendor, and highly feared at the market. Unfortunately…

It’s amazing how much fast forwarding I’ve done in this weekend’s episodes of Love in the Fresh Food Market and still have a grasp of what is going in the storyline. There are good and bad aspects of that, good because I get to watch only Thong and Kim-Lang’s scenes, bad because that means majority of the scenes are taken up by side characters and uninteresting subplots. Silliness and secondary characters do not appeal to me, especially Nada and Chai, whose storyline about revenge and rape takes over the spot light and screen time for our main characters. It is a total miss for me, unfortunately. I’m begging P’Off to go easy on the subplots and give me more meat. I know he wants…

“Let me stop breathing is easier” (หยุดหายใจง่ายกว่า)- Kala (Ending OST of Love in the Fresh Food Market, Fia’s translations) I am aware that I don’t have the right.. I don’t even have the hope to think about loving you. But the more I am around you, the more I fall in love with you. What should I do, I can’t find my way out. Every breath I take is you, every minute there is you. My mind has only you. How can I stop loving you? Let me stop breathing is easier. My heart has a problem, that I cannot control. It doesn’t matter if you don’t love me, I just want to love someone real, for once. If I shall be disappointed, it…
