Drama digest

An ordinary girl, Pang fights for justice. She is kind-hearted and fights the obstacles that life brings to her. She loves her older brother dearly, but they have been separated since Pang was a child. It’s been a long since her brother disappeared from her life. Throughout the years, she had prayed that she would be able to see her again. Otherside, Phu is a stern and serious person with a career, family, and status, but he doesn’t have any childhood memory. Pang started working in a company, and one day, she met Phu. Phu is her co-worker, a good and warm-hearted person. She confessed to him that his first impression of her was that he is her older brother. But she found that he was her brother. Now, what will happen to these siblings?

The feel-good part

The story was good, and the fleshed-out cast had a nice  romance between the leads. The way Phu dealt with the revelation between him and Pang was admirable.

The disappointing factor

Some key moments felt like bells and whistles of dramatic effects could elevate. In the end, things were a bit ridiculous. I thought that Pang and Phu were too forgiving of people who hurt them. I also hated that Pang ran away from her problems.

In-depth analysis

The drama managed to knock off my socks in many ways surprisingly. The story was intense, and the pacing was good. At first, the tale looked simple, but it had a lot of twists, and turns and the story was, made engaging. Despite how realistic it was it got dark at times. The story was easy to follow. Key points were revealed maturely without unnecessary drama. The way they played with the theme of family was impressive. Rita’s dad was the most compassionate and reasonable character of them all. The relationship between Pang and Phu was mature and healthy. They overcome the problems as a team. Phu is one of the gentlemen who make lead. The relationship between the siblings was refreshing. The ost was incredible. Overall, it was a great drama with an outstanding cast and well-thought story. It was more of a comfortable and convenient drama. If you love those light-hearted dramas, then you can go with this one.

Star power

The cast was the best part of the show. The cast was outstanding and delivered excellent performances. The supporting cast was equally supportable. The characters feel like real people with their dreams and motivations. It was good to see the complex characters.

Overall opinion

A light-hearted lakorn that felt good. It had some dark moments, but it made the good moments better.
