Engaging Lead couple and interesting plot line

I don't write many reviews. I was motivated to do so considering the low reviews a few folks have written showing an obvious skew with the true value of this plotline. The main lead is a young woman whose boyfriend insults and demeans her at a party with another woman. Chon is usually a straight arrow but decides she is tired of being put down by others for her poverty and looks. She decides to enjoy herself... and drinks a bit too much. Meanwhile, there are three different good-looking men who through a series of accidents, end up touching her life. Shift to 6 years later where Chom has a 5-year-old son she has been raising with her father and sister. Now these three men come back into her life through various encounters. The viewer is supposed to wonder over what happened and who fathered her son.

There is a great deal of interplay between the SFL and the two brothers: Kasa and Chayut.. This show has been compared to So Wayree. I can see some similarities but in reality there are tons of dramas out there with many similar complications and interplay. I think the actors in So Wayree including second leads were excellent. I think Pink , Euro and their child did a great job in Samee Chua Keun . The plot was the main weak point. A story like this does not need consistent fighting, beating, and slapping to be successful. Overdoing this makes the show less realistic and often overwhelming to its audience. This Drama is good but really the use of guilt and love to drive the plot off and on is wearisome.

Overall though I was engaged and drawn from one episode to the next to see this couple's interaction. The acting was good enough to have us want the leads to eventually overcome the storm.
