I see a lot of people bashing at him for how aweful he is and what everything wrong he did. I understand. But let's look at it from the character's side, Lhong's side.

Imagine growing up since being little as about five years alone. Your parents wouldn't care what happens to you, your siblings couldn't care even less. Imagine being bullied because of what and who you are. And imagine no one teaching you what is wrong and what is wrong. No one ever told you that you shouldn't lie to others, no one telling you that hurting others for your own good isn't right. Now, do you still think there was any other and better way for Lhong to deal with what's happening between him and Tharn? Of course, this doesn't justify everything he did, nothing of it all, but really, how would he know? It's easy to blame, but you have to see the reasons behind it all before judging.
So really, this doesn't make him any less evil character, but neither less lovable. Don't just put blame on him.

And now to the actual review.

I can't stress enough how Kaownah portrayed Lhong's character well. He made everone feel what he felt. He made everyone see the reasons behind his actions, made everyone see his pain. I can't appreciate it enough in words, will never be able to, but what he did what an amazing, breathtaking and just excellent work. He put so much into it and deserves bigger recognition.

The story as in whole, together with TharnType the series, has an amazing dept into the story. It gives it more than just lovey-dovey series for fangirl (which it is anyways XD) and shoves reality to it. it's masterpiece, so big thanks to the author and the director. Both of them did a magnnificent work.
