Hello everyone, I'm not only new to this site, but also new to lakorn. Just recently started watching some Thai TV dramas.
My first lakorn was The Royal Daugters in Law, Sapai Jao 2015 with Nychaa and Namtarn. I like Nychaa so much that I started watching Kluen Cheevit. Tbh, I only watched Nychaa's scenes and had no idea who Yaya was. I only noticed that the main lead looked so pretty and a bit Western looking. But I find myself disliking the type of love-hate conflict Thai lakorns like to force on their main couples, so I skipped most of the main couple's scenes . Thai people must really like seeing the main couples love each other secretly, but have to make each other suffer, and say mean things to each other, and only start to love or be happy with each other toward the very end of the series, like in the very last 2 or 3 episodes of a lakorn. Seriously, do Thai people like this kind of torturing love? I'm not saying this strictly about KC, but it's the impression I get from most lakorns I have watched or skipped so far.
In Nadech and Yaya's cases, luckily I only dislike Game Rai Game Rak. I love the begining when Yaya was still Nang Fa, they are so cute together and life was simple. This is the kind of escapism I like to find in TV dramas, not to fjnd couples bickering and being mean for stupid reasons with each other. But too bad, Saichon had to become a completely different person when he came back as Charles. I hate it when a guy forced himself on a girl, regardless of the reasons, especially when she hates him so much. So I fast forwarded most of the later part.
Actually, my first Yaya and Nadech's lakorn was Switched, because I read that they're one of the hotest real life couple. I'm still confused and still not sure if they're an item yet. Though I believe they must have been one at one point, judging at how comfortable they are physically with each other. Back to "Switched", my first impression was not so good. I thought Yaya was too unladylike to my liking. (At this point, I still didn't know, she was the same actress in KC). Well, I jumped in midway when they already switched bodies and Yaya attached Nadech after she drank the Chinese medicine. Understandably, she acted like a man. But, I'm just not used to seeing girls acting so boyish. So I skipped the lakorn. Before that I still was lucky enough to see Nadech's six-pack. Actually he had a bit of extra weight in that lakorn, so his body wasn't that lean, but I was still surprised to see he had a lot of chest hair
and muscles. Though I didn't like their first lakorn I watched, I still give them another try, because I trust there must be something special about them if people think they are one of the hotest couples in Thailand.
I watched GRGR next as mentioned above, that was when I started to like them a lot. From then, I have dug up and watched all their lakorns. Oh boy, what a blessing, I didn't know that Thai lakorn industry likes to pair the same couple again and again in many lakorn. I don't think you can see this same tendency in other countries. I'm not complaining. After I learnt that CH3 doesn't like real kissing scenes in their lakorns, I feel it is a real blessing for NY fans to see them in so many lakorns together. Because unlike CH7 where they seem to have a kiss in every single episode, this CH3 is so mean to their viewers.
It's always the same old kiss on the forehead, kiss on the hand, kiss on the cheek, kiss at an angle that viewers see nothing >,<, or camera pans out and focus on some flowers or the moon when the main couple's lips almost touch (and we know they never have to touch). Or how the guy moves in on the girl but at the last minute when his lips are just inches away from her lips, she has to stick her hand out to block him. Well, it's ok to do it once, but I notice that CH3 pulls these tricks out in most of the lakorns they made that I've watched so far. Another thing I dislike is that, all the romantic scenes are so slow. Can they kiss faster? Time seems to crawl when the main guy leans in for a kiss. It's like they have to play half of a song before the guy's lips touch the target surface (which might not be the girl's lips because she has to dodge it). Well, ok, the first one might be due to shyness and uncertainty. But seriously, do they need to do that for the 2nd, 3rd or 4th one? and even for a kiss on the hand? Jeez.
Sorry if I vent so much.
By the way, just saw the photo Yaya posted on Nadech's birthday. Not sure if anyone has pointed it out, but I think it was from their Paris trip. Look at that bear napkin and Nadech's T-shirt in the photos below. They're the same.
I mean if Yaya is always being compared to new MU we must be happy for Yaya that she is compared to a beauty queen but it does not mean that they are 100% the same ....resemblance or similar are the right adjectives
and immature fans
. For those who watched the Master edition, we got the answer that they cut out from the 1st version. It made sense by knowing her past why she was treated like this.
