I binged-watched the entire first season of this fun Thai soap opera and I loved it. Sure, it was goofy and over-the-top, but so what. The actors were beautiful and their characters were very easy to like and have concern for. The cinematography was pretty advanced for a tv series, often reading more like a movie, with great attention to detail and the use of sophisticated effects. And even though the plot was a little drawn-out and predictable, again I say, so what? It was entertaining and had a very upbeat vibe, but was not afraid to explore some more somber topics such as Alzheimer's and sexual harassment. I disagree with those who insist it is culturally-specific because I think the emotions that were represented are universal. I even liked the happily-ever-after ending. I hope there is a second season and I hope Netflix will carry it.
