It's really worth?
First I'd like to say that I am not good writing reviews (or in English grammar) but I'll try it so let's go. (sorry, because it's kind of big)I was really excited about this lakorn since I watch Chuamong Tong Mon and started to follow Preem, she seemed really happy with this work and I also like mystery and supernatural stuffs, but I confess that I was anxious about it and I had afraid that somehow the story goes into a boring and maybe toxic way and their chemistry doesn't fit, but it didn't disappoint me.
Preem and Punjan show a chemistry who grows episode by episode, their development was good, even if we don't have a lot of romance, they showed a perfect chemistry that at least for me, it's something rare to find.
People said about Saran being a hothead, wich is true and something he get me on my nerves, but I really love him and the way he was, in somepoint he was right to not trust in the doctor.
The mystery envolved is also on point, all the Moo and Somboom mystery catch my attention and was really fun to watch.
Characters like Sak made everything even funnier and light and he is for sure one of the best character and by far my favorite.
What can I said about Dao and Pai? Both of them, of course, wasn't my favorites so far, BUT gosh... The final scenes... I really cried (I am trying to not give spoilers here)
The OST fits so well, the opening song and I'll be there was really good and made the scenes even more comfortable and worth to watch.
Punjan is one of my favorite actors and I was really happy when I saw that he get a ML now and I hope that he continues like that and also that he can reunite with Preem again, wich also one of my favorites. She has good expressions, but I have to say, I didn't like her acting in Chuamong Tong Mon and Pom Arthun in some scenes, but she was really good as Sornklin, a sassy character like Son fits really well on her.
Anyway, Chemistry, Romance, Mystery, Supernatural, Comedy and Action was on point there, it's really worth the wait and worth to watch, but if I have to say something that I didn't like, I would say that 13 episodes wasn't enough, I really want to see more of Saran and Sornklin together even if I like the way their romance development, I wanted more because for me wasn't enough and the was it ends could open a space to a second season maybe? (OK I dreamed really high right now) Even with me thinking it could have more, I am not disappointed at all and I'll rewatch this that's for sure.

One of the best Lakorn I ever seen.
First I would like to say that I have never written a review and that I am not a professional in this area, so I will just be giving my opinion here.If you don't like the Hate to Love genre, you better not start, because that's the whole story. I really enjoyed all the development, but I felt something was missing. Maybe the deleted and reduced scenes gave me that feeling. Lan's hatred was not very well explained or explored as it should and in the end, left many gaps, which could be filled if there was a second season, however, I highly doubt it.
Every story had incredible potential and visuals and the cast was wonderful, I was able to feel in me what each character felt and that's good as it helps us understand what the character is going through.
This lakorn is one of the best I've ever watched, but as I mentioned, something was missing, I wish I had seen more of Lan trying to win back Mook, I wanted to see a better construction of the secondary couple. Oak and Poom had scenes cut but they got together too and what happened between Lak and Win? He liked her since college. I really wanted to see what happened.
Anyway, a second season would be interesting to see and it would be good to explore more of what was left open, but I know that the network will not do that. However, even with what was left open, lakorn did not disappoint me, the scenes and the story went the way I expected and everything, from the chemistry between the cast to the soundtrack, contributed to a flawless work, even if a little poorly exploited.

Don't watch if you want drama
Maybe my favoritism is speaking louder here, but I dare you to say that this is one of the best lakorns I've watched so far.Yes, it starts slow and even boring at times, so if you are looking for something 100% dramatic, this lakorn is not for you. It follows a mix of comedy, romance and drama well balanced between each other.
The first episodes help us get to know and sympathize with the characters. We get to know their fears, their dreams, their day-to-day challenges, in the end we notice that they are just common characters that you can find out there, with each chapter we get to know a little more about them.
Mark and Yaya's chemistry remains as fresh as it was with Tawan Deard and Kleun Cheewit and I think part of that is because their friendship is pure. They have a connection, affection and respect for each other that makes the whole experience better.
The cast's dynamics were also incredible, so much so that some characters were missed in the last episode.
Tin and Ing. The two have incredible chemistry, and something I liked was the fact that she wasn't a villain (the first lakorn I watched where the actress isn't a big problem); she had her goals, she planned to achieve them, but she never thought about harming Apo in any way, she was a great character.
Some things displeased me, of course, but I believe I'm so numb that disliking one topic doesn't affect the rest of the drama. What irritated me most was the way Din dealt with Mueang in the beginning, but everything led to one path that made us understand the reason behind it. (Although I still don't like the plan very much, it was this plan that led the entire story to the ending it had)
Secondary characters are never supposed to have any depth, they are just there to drive the plot, but I missed Din, Sita, Om and even Aunt Da and Rita in the last episodes where they didn't have as much - or almost no - prominence.
I feared the last episode would be meaningless or rushed, but it was perfect and delicate, a heart-warming ending on a cold day.
For those who started and stopped: I would recommend giving it one more chance. Love at First Night is a light and fun lakorn, perfect for those who are tired of lakorns with revenge themes and want to venture into other genres.
