Drama Digest

The plot revolves around Kumarika, a new teacher in Nopphakhun’s school. Kumari missed the school timetable on her first day as a teacher, causing a misunderstanding with the school’s owner. She was now afraid of failing her assessment and being dismissed. Kumari was surprised to learn that the owner was not going to fire her but was flirting with her. She doesn’t take him seriously and dismisses his repeated approaches. Her brothers begin looking into the background of her would-be suitor after sensing that their sister may require protection.

The feel-good part

After all, the lead couple is the show’s main draw. Aom sushar plays Mod while Pae Arak plays Kao. They have excellent chemistry and appear to be a good match. The show features two overprotective nang’ek brothers for comedic relief, and the viewers would find those two, as well as her parents, appealing.

The Disappointing factor

After all, the show’s biggest drawback is, without a doubt, the lead couple. Aom sushar portrays Mod, while Pae Arak portrays Kao. They look to have terrific chemistry and are a good match. For comedic relief, the show contains two overprotective nang’ek brothers, and those two, as well as her parents, attract the audience. Kaew’s reasoning for ridiculing Mod was silly but is believed that she was presented quite well. Wi’s tale was absurd near the end, and her motives were thin. It’s lighter, shorter, and has fewer annoying characters. It’s also lighter and fluffier, with little to no backstory aside from the central romance and minor villain machinations. Tharn, Dao, and Teacher Mod’s love triangle are entirely unnecessary. Mr. Lipstick is not the film for you if you want a perspective plot with well-developed characters and fantastic writing.

In-depth analysis

The series follows “Kumarika,” who has always wanted to be a teacher. Her first day as an educator is a complete disaster. She even gets into a disagreement with the school’s founder and owner, Mom Rajawongse Nopphakhun,  leading Kumarika to assume that he dislikes her. As the novel progresses, it is revealed that “Kumarika” causes his heartbeat to beat so quickly for the first time in a long time that he chooses to win her heart. Still, their love life isn’t as simple as they had hoped. Nobody expects a handsome millionaire like him to fall in love with an average woman who is the daughter of a primary grocery store owner. Challenges arise throughout their love, like “Kumarika’s” two nasty elder brothers and “Nopphakhun’s” family, who are constantly breaking their bond. Keep an eye on the situation to see if the love between the two social groups blossoms in the end.

Star power

The cast is fantastic. It’s good to see June in a lovely and compassionate position rather than a criminal one. This position, in my opinion, is more appropriate for her.

Aom sushar portrays Mod, while Pae Arak portrays Kao. They are a good match. For comedic relief, the show contains two overprotective nang’ek brothers, and I have to say, those two, as well as her parents, attract me.

Overall Opinion

Overall, the drama is suggested to anyone who likes a pleasant, sweet romance. While watching,  Feel completely at ease, if you want a break from a complex melodrama, as this is an excellent setting drama to watch.  The featured tracks in terms of music are commendable as well. The opening theme is exceptionally catchy and represents the upbeat and lighthearted tone of most episodes.
