Yes! Same. I thought he was or was around Prang's age, so I'm shocked that he was born in 1980! He looked so youngHaha. I initially thought he was Prang's age.
Who am I kidding? Same here...lol...Haha. This lakorn is already one of my all time favorites!
Well thats so sad I feel bad for NDFD if that really is the case. I like NY and Taew but that really is unfair. Channels here in the Philippines kinda do the same thing. Prioritizing the dramas of celebrities who are much more popular especially those with loveteams bc they have huge fanbase and bring higher ratings. And tbh most of our loveteams cant even act that great hahaha. Sad that theres no making way for big potential and talented actors and actresses to grow and develop.@lakornkiki even if i sound like a hater to fans, Neung Dao Fah Diew is def being "sacrificed" bc of fears of Likit Ruk not being able to follow up in popularity. I get the concern I do...but Likit Ruk has sooooo much hype with NY and it being Anne's production, so if I were them I'd be afraid too.
I think it might be because a lot of people in Thailand would have already planned to travel abroad for the holidays; the majority of the celebs I follow have already left the countryIm very curious. What happens in songkran week that makes people worried about the BPS ratings? People cant watch tv?
I wouldn't say NDF was sacrificed per say, it's more like Anne is taking her flipping time with editing & on top of that they have to wait for the Chinese side to edit out the scenes that they don't like in the final version of LR so that it can air in China at the same time as it airs in Thailand. From the beginning, they never even had a clear air date for LR; a lot of the cast was saying January or February & we're still waiting lol.@lakornkiki even if i sound like a hater to fans, Neung Dao Fah Diew is def being "sacrificed" bc of fears of Likit Ruk not being able to follow up in popularity.

BUT
to go back on track, i'm soooo excited for a wedding scene. Maybe it won't happen till the final episode though...bc i feel with the tension of the political stuff...it'll be too rushed to include the wedding scene.
We still have to have bloodied Falcon and his death too.
Songkran is Thai New Years... People tend to travel to visit family and relatives around the country and will gather together to pay respect to their elders and make merits during the 3 days period.Im very curious.

Hmm, well, to me it looks okay since I'm Thai. Like I have said before, it's a ritual that is already absorbed into Thai tradition, even though it is originated from Hindi. So I don't think it's weird to have differences in the way the perform the ritual. Thai mixes this and that all the time so it's no surprise. But that's just me, though. Hindi tradition is very deeply rooted in Thai's, but there surely will be different. Thai never really absorbs something from another country exactly the same. We have "American fried rice," "Tokyo" sweets, something like that. Even the way we eat sushit is different, and Buddhism is not 100% Buddhism here too (It is mixed with Hinduism.) I mean, they know, learn, and then they mix it. I don't know how to explain it really. lololI was a mess after I watched the episode live yesterday.....and I still cried after watching it again with subs. This episode was an emotional roller coaster....but so satisfying.....if that makes any sense....
The romance in this show is mostly limited to looks and swoony sniffs....lol....a bit of touching(although seems more progress in upcoming episode) but its still leaves you breathless....every scene of Date and Kade flirting leaves me a bit flushed and a big smile on my face. I'm soooo excited about today...Date is already saying naughty stuff in the previews....so it seems these two will finally go beyond sniffing and blushing.
One thing I wanted to write about since the start of the show was use of the name Krshna-Kali. I had read very different spellings of the mantra name so was not sure but I was right and the pronunciation did sound like Krshna-Kali....So I'll share with you guys where the name comes from.
It's actually not one but two names joined together.....The two are names of very powerful God and Goddess in Hindu mythology...Lord Krshna is the God of Peace, Compassion, Love, Righteousness and Goddess Kali is called the destroyer of evil, She is also called mother of the universe as She has the power to create and destroy.......She was/is worshiped by warrior clans who pray to her before going to war...These two deities have only one thing in common....Their names have a similar meaning...somewhat.....The Dark One/Black One. Maybe that's why the writer chose this name...who knows...
I also know now why Date was dressed in Hindu priest outfit....it was coz they were invoking a Hindu High God Shiva during the ritual. The Ling (Idol representation), the conch, the small drum (called dumroo) clothes, the rudraksha necklaces and armlets are all associated with Lord Shiva husband/consort to Goddess Kali.....It is said that when Goddess Kali looses her temper she can destroy the world and the only one who can placate her is Lord Shiva.
I did find two things that bothered me.....I think they needed to do a bit more research on that ritual scene as it was an important scene....and you can easily find stuff about this on google...so it wouldn't have taken much effort.
First... Date put in the offerings in the consecrating fire with his left hand ...VERY BIG no no...another....after that Date went and sat with his back to the havan kund....the consecrating fire. ....You NEVER, EVER sit with your back to the consecrating fire...its a sacred fire and you are putting offerings in it to appease the God...you need to sit facing it....or beside it....Even if date was not putting the offerings after the first time he still needed to sit beside it and continue worshiping the idol placed in the front without putting his back to the fire. Usually the fire is placed in the center of the room so that everyone can sit around it ...facing the fire....you can also put it at the front of the room...and everyone can still face it.
Even though I was disappointed by these oversights, I still liked the overall effect of the scene.....and one small thing I noticed and appreciated very much was that Date's dad handled the mantra book correctly....placed between his thumb and fore finger...without pinching it.....touched it to the forehead before handing it over.
