A charming but slightly flawed remake, this series invites inevitable comparisons to its origin in a different region. While not a flawless replication, the Thai adaptation manages to succeed in its own right.
One notable improvement from the original is the reduction in the number of episodes, which quickens the pace and avoids the prolonged separation of the main characters, a frustrating aspect of the source material. Additionally, the character development of the female lead's brother, though not as nuanced as in the original, steers...clear of turning him into a disliked figure, showing growth towards the series' conclusion.
On the downside, the chemistry between the couples lacks the spark seen in other adaptations. However, standout moments, like the female lead's drunken escapade, add depth to the storyline without resorting to controversial or uncomfortable scenes.
The supporting office staff bring a delightful dynamic to the series, while the lead actors manage to shine despite some limitations in the script. Notably, the original soundtrack, particularly the track "I'm Missing You," adds a beautiful touch to the viewing experience.
In conclusion, while not without its shortcomings, this Thai remake offers a refreshing take on a familiar story and deserves a chance to win over new audiences.
