I spent half an hour writing a review only to have clicked it out! I'm about to cry. Lol. I guess I can't write a full out review on this. Let me summarize what I had written.
I feel really bad for missing out on opportunities to spazz with everyone. This week has been a busy one with school and such. I like the first episode so far, but I don't totally love it. It was a good introduction, enough to keep me interested and excited for next week. I think that Tui is doing a great job as Pattawee. I love the cold and heartless vibe that he gives off. There's no life to him. You can tell that he is a troubled person. Something in his past caused him to be the ill-willed man that he is. He is, indeed, traumatized from his past. I love when he clenches his jaws. His jawline is on point! His evil gazes and smirks has me having the hots for a 40 year old man who is twice my age! Lol. I'm definitely impressed. I feel that Kwan still lacks a bit in her acting. She's so good at being an innocent n'ek that when she tries to be tough, she still seems nice. I want to feel the hatred in her eyes and hear the resentment in her voice. She still needs to work on that because her expressions are still soft. Let's see if she improves as the plot intensifies.
Since I've seen the movie version with Sam Yuranan, the acting in there is hard to top because that movie portrayed disturbance at its best. The main leads went at it full force. This doesn't seem as raeng, but good effort. I think Tui will be able to kick it up a notch and put a spin on his version of Pattawee compared to Sam. Idk about Kwan being able to pull the same sassy as the female lead in the movie version. We will see.
In contrast to other members, I blame Pattawee for Chichaba's father's death and I blame Chichaba's father for Wee's father's suicide. They are professional gamblers so what they wager has to be given up regardless of how stupid it is. These men make a living off these bets. So I blame the stupidity of the men who initiate the bets to begin with. I know everyone is responsible for their decision in life, but you can't ignore the fact that other factors influence them to do what they do. Wee had a play in Chichaba's father's suicide while Chichaba's father had a play in Wee's father's suicide. The two were close friends and Chichaba's father took everything away from Wee's father after winning a bet, which lead to his father hanging himself to death. Wee just want him to repay what he had done through the same method. I guess karma caught up with him and will soon catch up with Wee too. Revenge only goes around in circles, hence the title Mai Sin Rai Fai Sawart.
In this version, our two pranangs met prior to finding out who each other was. But I don't think Wee wanted Chichaba to be his mistress because he liked her. I believe it's because he wants her to suffer as much as he has. Her losing her father doesn't equate to the same amount of pain he had suffered all these years. That's why he wanted her as a mistress to prolong her pain and destroy her physically and mentally the same way her father did to him when he had lost his father. It's a twist of fate that he accidentally falls in love with her during his revenge.
