cute and fluffy
As a general rule I do like to watch drama remakes. I find it fascinating to see how another country might interpret a story and overall vibe of a drama. That being said this drama was cute, the initial story set up is engaging what with all the bickering between the two leads.
The drama stayed true to the original story and I thought the conflict resolution ( what little conflict there was) was dealt with speedily and issues did not drag on. The episode count is a lot for this kind of story so I did fast forward certain scenes towards the end, there's also an inordinate amount of flashbacks.
Casting is good, I especially enjoyed the female lead, she pulled off the role well and is not a pushover which is so refreshing in an Asian drama. She did lean heavily on the comedy in the earlier episodes and some of her reactions to situations were off kilter.
The male lead is definitely not a great actor, and I was put off by his girlish looks. I know many will beg to differ on this but hey, each to his own.
Supporting cast is good, I liked second male lead and one of the most emotionally satisfying scenes is the rain scene between him and the female lead.
The main couple have great chemistry, the Thais know how to convey chemistry without going into steamy territory.
Overall this is watchable if you're not looking for depth, although twelve episodes would have done the job just as well.
Music is ok but very repititive.
I will not rewatch this.
