Drama Digest

A unique love story between three different people hailing from three different types of generations, the generation X, the generation Y and Generation Z. Thorn comes from X generation and is a businessman owning a luxurious club. Chatra, from generation Z, comes to the club to celebrate her birthday, and New Year’s Eve, where she ends things with her boyfriend, with whom she had a relationship for 10 years. She causes chaos until a gun is fired, and it hits Thorn, concluding in erasing the memory of his best friend’s son, Thai, who is from the Generation Y. The three main leads got tied by fate, when the New Year’s Party connected them with each other. Things get even more complicated when Chatra falls in love for Thorn.

The Feel-Good Part

There are many star moments and factors of the story. The rapport between the main leads is impressive and it holds the story until the very end. The story gets messy, but the chemistry keeps it watchable. The character selection for this series is also appropriate for the actor playing. The difference in ages and generations does not come in between their love, which is beautiful. Other characters are too impressive and the scenes with the main leads are interesting. The female lead is also applaudable with nice acting skills and excellent expressions.

The Disappointing Factor

The drama feels excessively dragging, and unnecessary after the initial few episodes. The cringe moments hit in the later episodes and it becomes difficult to keep up, with it. The closure provided to the story is not satisfactory enough to satisfy the enormous time given to the series. The story is also not well-executed because the plot and scenes made seemed overly dramatic and unsatisfactory. The drama is only worth the chemistry between them.

In-Depth Analysis

There are not many surprises and weird plot twists in the series. The couple has good chemistry, and makes up to a good looking and cute couple. It has a decent plot with not much excitement. Each episode is well written. There are no such  confusing scenes and each scene is captivating to the story. The series is straightforward. It is already established that the love would blossom between the chosen main characters, but the climax spoke for itself. It was self-explanatory and rewarding to watch until the very end. Showing the high-profile lives of Thailand is also applaudable.

Star Power

All the main leads complement each other. They have good understanding and trust for each other, and are nice overall as a humans, keeping their relationship aside. It pushes the viewers to believe and handle their relationships and friendships nicely. The gap generation differences are shown in a nice way, where all of them struggle to understand each other. The female lead is also getting better with the progression of the series, both in terms of acting and character development. It is rare for such a lovely portrayal of acting in Thai drama.

Overall Opinion

A variety series with a variety of impressive scenes. It is a recommended watch.
