With the political scenes that takes place, I believe it is all good scenes that help with the development of the story. We all would like to be greedy and watch only Kade and Por Date but then their story will focus on Por Date trying to figure out who she really is and it would go no where. The history in this story is quite enlightening to viewers who are new to learning about Thai history.
As for not getting higher ratings due to Pope’s scandal, I feel bad for the dude. He’s an adult and people are after him just because he talks to girls? I hope people have heard of online dating, talking to multiple people until you find someone fit. In this fast pace world we live in that’s the only way to talk to people outside of your circle. If this was his way to make more friends and meet girls then so be it. Fans don’t get mad at him for trying to live a life of his own. Reality is not perfect, even Por Date’s character isn’t perfect, he cursed and hated in the beginning. Lol If your perfect, what’s worth it anymore.
