strong female portrayal lakorn
Lakorns made by people who actually think women have brains.

1. Ruk Ok Rit
Thai Drama - 2014, 13 episodes
She's a mafia boss. She gets her wanna-be rapist to back off telling him that she's not a drama FL and she WILL report him and take revenge in every way she can, thus gaining his utmost admiration (not that it matters)

2. Namtan Mai
Thai Drama - 2009, 13 episodes
A drama that never ties a woman's worth to her sexuality. Yes, the female villain happens to be sexually promiscuous, that being said, one of the most sympathetic character is a prostitute.

3. Game Sanaeha
Thai Drama - 2018, 14 episodes
For its portrayal of woman as human beings and not archetypes. The old ex wife is not bitter but actually becomes her ex's best friend. The new, young, beautiful wife IS indeed a golddigger but one who actually relies on her smarts as much if not more than her looks.
Also, post partum depression.

4. Roy Leh Marnya
Thai Drama - 2020, 17 episodes
The scariest female villain in lakorn, she is like a spider. The MIL was a really intersting character. The cheat was punished. The firt night between the lead, no means no.

5. Lying Heart
Thai Drama - 2017, 26 episodes

6. Ab Ruk Online
Thai Drama - 2015, 15 episodes
Can a person be "too strong"? This FL is sooo self reliant she's something else. But I do admire her competency and her smarts, even though she's pretty clueless in love.

7. Kor Kerd Mai Klai Klai Ter
Thai Drama - 2020, 13 episodes
This FL saves her own life multiple times thanks to her fighting skills. Also she's a search and rescue volunteer, and a badass mom. What more do you want?

8. Khaen Rak Salap Chata
Thai Drama - 2021, 16 episodes
One of the FL in this is a real scrapper, and a ride-or-die chick! I like how they take the typical female antagonist (needy sidepiece with no self worth) and turn her into a kick ass sidekick!

9. My Name Is Busaba
Thai Drama - 2020, 16 episodes
Busaba lives in a realm of her own. The drama is not perfect (especially towards the end, she becomes a noble idiot). But it humanizes her and also the ML. I like how she just likes herself for who she is and her makeover is just combing her hair and adding some lipgloss. haha.
