The Feel-Good Part
The screenplay and the technique used to tell the story are fabulous. Green Ausadaporn has carried both the characters Kaew and Chidchanok graciously. Green’s performance is one of the highlights of the show. The chemistry between the lead couples is pleasant.
The Disappointing Factor
The sound quality and the music need improvement. The special effects or CGI are awful. These take a toll on the delivery as the story is not unique or intriguing solely. The performance of the supporting characters requires improvement. The quality of the show’s production is not up to the current trends.
