So far I watched first and 2nd episode. There are things I like and stuffs I don't.
But while waiting for it to air I looked around for the old version with Likit and Jintara. I found it and ... watched it. I can't say I loved it but it was ok for me. I thought it was a lagging a bit. The romance between them started too slow for me. And the pacing as well. But gotta say P' mam Jintara was really pretty back then. ( Actually she remains as such. ^-^ ) She pulled off her role very well. And Likit IS likit! so enough said.
As of this remake version. yup it's different but somehow I prefer this directing as its pacing is much faster. We get quick into the plot. Although we can already expect the outcome, you unwillingly have to see the rest. Me too, black underlined-eye Rome turned me off but I stayed put for P'Ann and Dome. The supposed to be amazing fencing scenes between Yothin and Attiksa got a :blink: from me but I just needed to fast forward it. Other than that. ALL CUTE !!!
Victor ( Arnon ) is really charming. I too really like the brothership between the siblings. ( the apologize-dancing scene in 2nd episode ) was really heart-warming. I think I wouldn't mind a future Ann-Dome collaboration. Somehow I think they would fit. ( yea I also thought Alin would of fitted with Thua Piak in SSH ( if no Krou Cook ) so yup call me crazy ... ^_^ )
blobofcolour pretty much sums up my first impression of episode 1. so please see her page on Livejournal.

I guess I'll tune in for the following episodes. It's not as engaging as I expected it to be but .. while waiting for 365, I don't mind a words fights and few spots of shirtless body.
( although for the second shirtless scene with Yothin, they greased his body a bit too much ! They could of tone it down a bit or director could of ask him to lift stuffs instead ... it would of looked way more believable and sexier ... :wub: )
