It’s not you, it’s me. I am going to say it, Plerng Naree, and Tik-Mai combo, just isn’t doing it for me. The premier episode felt slow, languid, dazed and uninspiring. Some glaring issues for me lies in three areas: (1) the directing, which creates such a boring world; (2) the writing and characters; and (3) the actors, which may have to do with the characters they portray, and then, maybe not.

It’s another revenge drama for our W-Th timeslot! Plerng Naree will take over once Rang Tawan ends, introducing Mai Davika to Channel 3 viewers alongside the already revered Tik Jesadaporn. Guts Entertainment takes the revenge plot up a notch by involving royalty – Mai plays Princess Pririsa of Saijeet (a country on an island). She was born Thai but had to flee the country with her mom due to suffering and death threats by the hands of her father’s family. They seek refuge at Saijeet where her mother ends up marrying the King, so she became the Princess by default and her life as she knows it, becomes a fairytale. But she could never forget her past and upon seeing that the culprits are…

Yah Leum Chan – namely Forget Me Not – is coming to an end after such a highly anticipated beginning. From the outset, it was a recipe for success: we have a renown director PaaJaew, an acclaimed producer of Sood Saneha, and a star studded cast of Anne Thongprasom, Tik Jesadaporn, Kong Saharat and Rita Jensen. But despite having all of the seemingly right ingredients, it is as if no one really tasted the food. So the dish comes out looking pretty but missing a certain spice, leaving one quite regretful that the chef couldn’t pull it off.

EPISODE 11 PREVIEW Kemchart must have done an insane amount of merit from his past life because in this lifetime, everyone – in exception to our heroine Su – is so nice to him. We see that he’s withdrawn, sad, giving up hope with life. His father figure, Somkit, cannot fathom to see his beloved employer depressed and seeks Ganlong’s help. He shamelessly asks Ganlong to help Kemchart and his company by kneeling down and begging. Ganlong, being the sweetheart that she is, could only give in. But before she helps Kemchart, she wants to know how Su really feels about him. With a person who is as tightlipped and stubborn as Su, one has to use sneaky methods. Ganlong pretends to be angry…

Ganlong finally gets her answer and is forced to face the truth. Kemchart learns what he’s been waiting to hear yet never dreams of, which also brings him to his biggest regret. Su is avoiding everything as usual, but we finally learn why she appeared back in Kemchart’s life. Looks like Eua is the only person trying to keep the sanity around, patching up hurt feelings and working his magic as usual.

Viewers! Don’t loosen your resolve, hold strong from the sad face of Kemchart and remember how evil he was! Don’t let that face weaken you, he’s got to be put through the ringer first. Although I must say, we are starting to see the shift in the direction of this lakorn, gearing for the third act, oh especially the end of this episode. The denial, the wall around Kemchart is slowly (but surely) disintegrating. People are not letting him off the hook this time around. Case in point, Kanlong, she’s inviting Channa and Su to assist her with the engagement planning because she wants to see how jealous and batshit crazy Kemchart would get when he’s around Su. She’s of the opinion that one…

I have a few words for Kemchart and they’re all very ugly. You will see them spewed throughout this episode. I’ll just get right to the recaps and you can read my thoughts on the last paragraph. *Pictures are finally added, despite such a vexing episode! Lovelies, feel free to give your two cents below!

PREVIEW Kanlong runs into Kemchart’s arms – “I never imagined someone would see the value of my work like this!” Su looks away, pained. Kem pulls Su close and says to her, “After work don’t go home yet, I have a surprise for you.” We see Kemchart in the pool with the twin boys waving at Suriyong. She waves and smiles back. Orn confronts Eua, “There’s gotta be something going on between Kem and his assistant!” Wanita threatens Su to step aside, and when Su doesn’t, she pushes her into the pool. In the next clip, Wanita snipes at Kanlong, “Even if you’re Kem’s wife, I don’t care!” Then Su falls on top of Kem, which begs the question from Eua, “What’s going on…

It’s a good backstory episode, complete with our characters walking down memory lane. We find out Eua’s biggest regret, we learn Kemchart and Suriyawadee’s cute past. But also, we learn that the past always has its interesting way of shaping the future and character. Some characters change for the good, while other (singular, if you get my meaning) mainly turn to the dark side.

EPISODE 3 PREVIEW Kemchard throws a vase against the wall where it smashes into tiny pieces. “You say what I’m doing to you now is too much, what about the things you’ve done to me that day?!” Kemchard shouts. She tries to walk away but he blocks her. Next we see Kemchard in the pool, punching the water in anger. His face contorts into fury. And the epic ladder falling moment! Su is cleaning the high windows when her ladder shakes and Kemchard catches her before she hit the ground. Episode 3 recaps will be covered by Darkness Lakorns, go here to read it: Episode 3 See you here for Episode 4 next Wednesday!
