Leela (Narin's sister) and Jade are lovers who have to work hard in order to find a secure life together when they are married. Unfortunately, their dream is destroyed like a nightmare. Five days before their marriage, Leela and Jade have a big car accident. Jade died instantly. Leela is injured and has to be in the hospital. The other party is Mr. Kid Worawat (Kawee's Dad), a very rich businessman. He has a minor injury while his wife had died from this car accident as well as Jade. Mr. Kid feels very sorry about this accident. He just takes a very good care of Leela. Since both of them are in the same situation (losing their loved ones), they get to know each other very fast. That leads to the sudden marriage between a man in his 50's and a woman in her late 20's. The person who is shocked and very upset is Kawee (Brook), the only son of Mr. Kid. Kawee lost his mom since he was young and was spoiled by his dad. He always attacks his dad's new wife (who had died from the car accident). He felt happy for a moment after the death of his dad's wife until he finds out that his dad is going to marry a woman who is about the same age as him. He used to know Leela. Leela used to like him, but he didn't like her because Leela is from a poor society. He is sure that Leela marries his dad because of money and wants to be in the rich society. After the marriage, Leela comes to live in the mansion along with her mom, her younger sister, Narin who has her own dignity and her teen younger brother. This makes Kawee really mad. He becomes an enemy with Leela and her family, including his own dad. But begins to fall in love with Narin, who stands up to him. Edit Translation

I must say that i am proud that i finished the 1998 version of "Sawan Biang" without any translation at all,starring the real-life married couple Brook Danuporn as the notorious Anti-hero/villain Kawee Worawat and Kob Suvanant as the headstrong Narin.Having also wathed the 2008 version starring Ken & Anne,i also compared both versions a lot and it was easy to pick a favourite one. The 2008 version clearly seals the deal since its one of my top 10 most favourite lakhorn ever...but i still like the natural flowing performances from Brook and Kob and thewhole cast-they did a terrific job!

I absolutely LOVEEEE the story of "Sawan Biang" (wish i also could read the novel)and its main-characters.I remember the 2008 version starting my addiction of lakhorns years ago and i haven`t been cured since.This older version have a different kind of directing.It has this gloomy and gothic element to it with a much depressing but also hauntingly beautiful OST.It doesn`t shy away from showing how flawed all the characters are and how much of a broken victim Narin becomes-in a almost stronger way than in the 2008 version.Brook`s performance as Kawee started off really strong in the earlier episodes,he have this swaggy but cold introduction when he enters his step-mothers funeral.He is a hateful creature,but seems to be empty of loneliness at times.Ken`s characterization of Kawee had a added charm of sexual innuendo,whereas Brook`s version of Kawee simply ozzes with barbaric shallowness with no empathy at all.More so with the way he brutally rapes Narin-how that scene made me uncomfortable and how awful it was to see how it almost broke Narin`s soul.It made it even more horrible because Kawee had never kidnapped her in this version but had calculatedly planned to rape her-and in doing that he drugged all the servants so that no one would help her.THAT IS A MONSTER!Narin was the one person who always stood toe to toe against Kawee and considered him dirt beneath her feet-because she knew what a cold-hearted monster he was from her first sight of him.I hate what she had to go through..and i hate it even more that she got together with him in the end.I also don`t like how friendly Kawee got with Leela near the end since Kawee in the 2008 version would rather cut his hand off than ever sincerely smile at Leela-HE DESPISED HER THAT MUCH even when they had a truce!Well this seems to be the case of if Narin is happy-then we all are happy!
