This drama has explosive chemistry between the leads.... they both have acted amazingly and what kisses!!!

There is a super adorable kid here as well which is fun to watch.

The drama is shot in a non linear manner sometimes and the first 8 epi are well shot and plotted but feels a little soulless...but after tht the rest is gr8 to watch.

There are some parts that were very convienient and some very irritating.... after epi 29 it just feels like it is draggin bcoz of the female villian.

Worth a watch for the chemistry until ep 32 max...after that u ask urself why watch this drama...just skip to the end....

This drama is available on daily motion as RRi-16 (epi no changes) in 380 and upto 15 on dramanice in good quality.

i just have one thing to mention which is different in this drama from all other dramas is we usually notice that all revenge dramas end when one side take revenge or realize that him/her revenge is unreasonable and other side forgive him/her for all its wrongdoing and they happily live after

but here when one side revenge is ended for whatever reason writer give equal opportunity to take revenge or show vengeance for facing consequences of what have gone through FL cause of ML .

kissing scenes are not that much interested to watch because of camera angle it looks fake even its real

about chemistry i find it great and story is great

yes there is something which is unlikable or dragged but if i see overall package its nice drama

In Depth Review

For those of you who like to know what you're getting into:

FL returns home after three years abroad and learns that ML is dead. Except not really, she soon finds out that he's alive but her once best friend now hates her because her family destroyed his. Now he owns a farm left to him by an ex wife and has an adopted daughter. While the FL is trying to do everything she can to get him to forgive her for her family's deeds.
FL has a sister that used to date ML which could have been utilized for a longer and better storyline, but she has acid thrown in her face and is killed off within the first few episodes. Then commences a long tug of war in which the FL and ML take turns hating each other and causing each other pain.

The male lead is constantly using other women to get revenge on the FL and just when the ML realizes he loves FL. Of course, she starts to hate him. Throw in a few psycho exes and miscarriage and you've got a soap opera. The story really dragged on for those forty episodes.

Pos: The ML and FL clearly both love each other deeply.
Con: The story could have been done so much better, with less repetitive arguments and more actual drama.

Great cast but poor storyline Honestly the drama really didn't live up to the hype, it was so long and boring. The first few episodes were mainly focused on the back story as childhood friends which was pretty interesting but aft the 7th ep all the way till the 35th ep it was super draggy and repetitive. Felt like the guy wasn't serious about the girl at all, he had affairs with so many other side characters and he seemed more keen on killing the girl and her family more than pursuing their relationship : there weren't any cute scenes or kisses and the whole storyline was just about the male and female lead seeking revenge on one another. About 70% of the scenes were focused on the side characters and almost in every episode more than one person would be shot or killed. Also felt that the relationship between the young girl and the old man was just a dead no-no; some characters they focused on were completely redundant to the main storyline. Overall OST I would rate 8/10, cast 8.5/10 but the plot really cmi. cannot make it. very long drama also, if you want to watch I suggest binging it, just skip the nonsense parts and focus on the main characters.

Hate bad guys winning

Hated it, the ending was crap. I don't care that it was 40 episodes. What I hated was the ML gave into letting the bad girls win at destroying his happiness and then rewarded them for it. Lalit and So murder the FL brother and let ML take the blame just to ruin his marriage, FL should've turned evidence to the cops just to get Lalit to confess rather than see ML go to prison. Then his friend Sao kills his unborn child and after he finds all this out he marries Lalit anyway all the while knowing the FL would never deliberately run into a moving vehicle to cause miscarriage and then be depressed and miserable afterwards, He swore he'd never divorce her and then does because of a lie she tells him to get rid of him, clearly ML didn't love FL enough to fight for their love and grieve their child.it's like they forgot their bond of friendship from youth. Lalit needed to die a more lonely and painful death for her bad deeds she was still trying to kill the FL and the ML was ok with it so he married her. Lalit dying still wasn't even sorry to the FL as she clearly states, karma much you pysho. The ML doesn't know real love and everytime he tried to redeem he'd screw it up and never did learn. The last episode needed more apology from ML reconciliation love remarriage and epilogue, should've been 41 or 42 episodes to make up the hell in between.

The series started off really good. There was some mystery, clear thoughts of hate, real devotion and more. You’ll definitely get a mix of action, plotting and drama. The revenge plot is nothing unique however there was a twist in this plot which gave a different vibe.

What I enjoyed most was the acting. There skills were great and they did a great job displaying the characters emotions. I also love a good hate to love drama and this one definitely came with those elements.

Where it fell short for me: the relationship was too turbulent. Trust was never established. Loyalty was misplaced by greed. The behaviors/script of each lead made them both seem ridiculous, i.e, once you’ve crossed a certain point, your revenge plot is stupid and if you’re so in love, you really can’t be oblivious to your lovers feelings. This series was long and I felt that the romance aspects of this series fell very short. Our leads had a few good moments that was shortly overshadowed by plots, misunderstandings, poor communication and lack of trust. This went on to the very end.

So when I started watching this drama ....it felt quite interesting in the beginning. And then it was a downward spiral. There were too many psychotic women running around like crazy... too much vengeance and anger and too much mistrust among the main leads. At one point I felt bad for the ML. Poor guy was trying so hard to redeem himself once he realised his mistake. I stuck to the drama till the end.... fast forwarding quite a lot. The evil plans seemed to drag on and on. I just wanted to see if the main leads end up togethe. Wish the ending was more detailed tho ... their getting back together that is. Plus point is....I really liked the FL and ML acting.

I did not have the patience for this

Well, the nang'ek cast is immature girl (whenever she needs to be dramatic/seductive/sulky/other she just looks... ridiculous, awkward) who cannot act yet, which would not be so uncommon. Bigger problem is she has no womanly charisma yet, either. She simply cannot work with Mai Warit, or anyone else 7 years older than herself.

The story's kinda unlikeable premise of a pra'ek being cruel enough to let the main heroine believe for years that he DIED is only the start of it. You don't grow fonder of this couple. As for the side characters, there's too many (too many children, too) featuring 1 of the 'Sixth Sense' girls, who does not look as fresh anymore, so I looked up her age. As she looked approximately 25 in 'Sixth Sense', and that was 5 years ago, she's now nearing 30, right? Some girls change in 30. But 1997 means she's 20? Weird... She didn't look twenty even then... Was she 15 in 'Sixth Sense'? Really? Perhaps they converted her birth year from the thai calendar wrong:)

I'm straying from the topic. In short, as I'm not really interested in the whole over-complicated plot, neither patient enough to watch all the family scenes, I'm dropping this early (I suppose I won't miss much).

Amazing drama

Overall the drama is great, acting, cast, chemistry, story, kisses everything in a typical slap kiss lakorn. But i am not satisfied with the ending of this drama. I mean I didn't even get a reconciliation kiss, and Lalit did so many thing yet win marries her and gives up two years with lek, and lek has a miscarriage. other than that its amazing.
Rewatch value : 9/10 until ep 35.
I LOVE THE KIDS IN THE SHOW. and its nice that the FL also get a turn at her revenge and unlike other dramas, where the FL instantly forgives the ML.
