Okay so I just watched Mai's interview video and I'm confused as to why some of Nadech's Thai fans are mad at her for the way she responded towards a possible collaboration between the two. They were saying how she's so full of herself, acting like she'll make time for Nadech if everything falls into place. Who does she think she is? Has she ever considered whether Nadech is free to work with her? Lol. She gave pretty neutral answers IMO but the fans are probably just trying to fault with her. It's no secret that some of his solo fans don't like her very much, ever since they did that Xact campaign together because she supposedly "doo dtuk" him. To be fair, Mai always has that slight air of arrogance to her with almost everyone so it's not just Nadech. If they were to really pair up in a lakorn, I would be more interested in the drama that comes along with it as oppose to the actual lakorn itself haha. The tension is real!
As for Mai's acting, I've surprisingly watched most of her lakorns and i think her best performance to date was in Kularb Rai Kong Nai Tawan. She overacted in the first half but eventually toned down as the story progressed yet she was also fairly decent in her debut, Ngao Kammathep. Every other lakorn she did was just whatever. The best thing about her acting is her crying abilities, she can emote very well but otherwise, she's too concerned about looking attractive on screen to actually make any other impacts. I know some fans don't care for her deep, almost manly sounding voice which is not always pleasing to the ears. She's very lucky in the sense that people can overlook her acting flaws because she's such a stunner and is very photogenic. Her concern about appearance works to her advantage. Onto Nadech, I think he'd make a very interesting pairing with either Bella or Namtarn. Both are the more versatile girls within their generation, especially Bella who looks very mature but is surprisingly very convincing as a prim and proper nang aek. Someone like Kim who I also categorize as an actress who looks mature beyond her age cannot pull off that soft, gentle, lady-like role the same way Bella does. Maybe she can prove me wrong in the future but as of now, I can't see it in her. That is why I said, if this specific remake were to go to Channel 7, I can list a countless number of girls who fit this lakorn. The possibilities are endless. With Channel 3, the selection of good candidates are so limited. And if Nadech really is in here, how many girls would really match him in physique and acting style? I don't think there's that many and I don't believe Mai is one of them. She would tower over him just like she does with Tik. Even Preem who I want to see with Nadech (only because I want her with a younger praek) probably wouldn't look that good with him either because of her height.
