I remember both parts well. After Rin pretended to sweet-talk with Sakchai to tempt Romanee’s jealousy, I actually felt proud of Nol when he reminded her that she had a (sexual harassment) “problem” with Sakchai before. The script had Nol say something justified rather than insulting her the way that most lakorns have their pra aeks do to their nang aeks, when they’re of course, engulfed in the flames of jealousy. (Although speaking of this, Nol had his share of insulting Rin unjustifiably too i.e. beach scene and the dance scene at the bar. –Jerk!).In my opinion I think Non is one of the smart pra'eks that I seen lately from Thai lakorns. This character doesn't talk much but show a lot through actions. When Niya said Non is good at reading people character I agreed with her. He might not say it out but he always know what kind of person Nee and Chatchai are. He always tell Rin not to worry about Nee because she is not weak and vulnerable as she portrays. He also told Rin that Chai is selfish and biggest womanizer.
wow! that was a perfect elaboration of Nol's character in the story. I absolutely agree with your descriptions of him.I remember both parts well. After Rin pretended to sweet-talk with Sakchai to tempt Romanee’s jealousy, I actually felt proud of Nol when he reminded her that she had a (sexual harassment) “problem” with Sakchai before. The script had Nol say something justified rather than insulting her the way that most lakorns have their pra aeks do to their nang aeks, when they’re of course, engulfed in the flames of jealousy.

Nol’s knowledge of Romanee's and Sakchai’s characters can either be attributed to his good judgment or simply from his long years of friendship and familiarity with them. In fact, I’m not sure if I should have even translated Niya’s opinion of Nol as having a “good judge of character.” Rather, she said he understood people very well, to be literal. There’s a slight difference, but a difference nonetheless. Still, I would attribute Nol’s (incomplete) knowledge of Romanee and Sakchai’s character to the latter (familiarity) and not the former (good judgment).
Our differing opinions may also derive from the different meanings we attach to the term “a good judge of character.” To me, a good judge of character is someone who can read a person’s motives and tendencies without having to know that particular person for a long period of time. It is someone who can predict another’s behavior even when that person has not revealed everything about themselves. And to a large part, it is an intuitive process. Nol is able to read the parts of Sakchai and Romanee’s characters only so far as they allow him to. Someone with a good judge of character would be able to see through even the parts that the one being observed does not want to reveal. I think Grandma Cheun is a good judge of character. Furthermore, as someone with a good judge of character, I would have expected Nol to not mistakenly misunderstand Rin when Romanee falsely accused Rin of ordering foods that Nol were allergic to. So I beg to differ with you. Nol is not a good judge of character. He may understand people well like what Niya said, but he’s not able to penetrate the false guises people sometimes wear and then look into their hidden motives.
Also, Nol didn’t say that Romanee wasn't weak and vulnerable as she portrayed. I don’t think Romanee even tries to portray herself as weak and vulnerable. The message was just, that compared to Rin, Romanee can help herself.
/Sorry. I just wrote an essay.
Oh I love love that scene too. I don't know many guys willing to buy their love one a sanitary napkin.Last night's episode was great! I was just smiling in awe when Nol was so happy when he learned that Rin wasn't pregnant! He even got the sanitary napkin from Rin and paid it at the counter!!! That was such a nice gesture from a man in love! I love that scene!
Yeah,I enjoyed watching WWYWY last night.Om, Jui, Amy and Pepper are such bubbly persons that they don't hesitate to burst into laughter with funny things and scenes.I wish I would also be one of those fans supporting Om in the studio! I wish I would also be there shouting for him! lol...Oh I love love that scene too. I don't know many guys willing to buy their love one a sanitary napkin.
In Wan Wan Yan wan you...I love how other people adorable Om and trying help him out with the interview. Pa Kik, Aom and the rest of the casts.
HAHA Yeah, inorite?
^This. As much as everyone looks forward to the interactions between Nol and Rin alone, I wouldn't want the lakorn to end just with the two of them. Honestly, Grandma Cheun is the star and the genius behind their story. Nol and Rin's romance wouldn't be possible without her. I'd like to see a marriage proposal months after Nol gets to know Rin in her true form. Something like..."Six months later..."
[/quotSad to say, but I looked into the length of the spoilers again, and I'm willing to wager that Nol won't find out until episode 20. Unless they skip a lot of the spoilers I've read so far. I noticed that there were some scenes in the last 15-20 minutes of ep 18 that weren't in the spoilers posted on Thairath. Usually the spoilers include everything. Maybe they'll change something last minute. I just can't figure out how they would wrap the story up (in a way that would please me ) if Nol finds out in ep 20 and there's only 1 episode left after that. I guess that's why they go into rush mode so often in the end.
Rin's personality wasn't revealed yet in last night's episode. One of the spoilers said that Nol would find out the truth about Rin in Neeya's yearbook; and this scene hasn't been shown on air. Only two episodes to go and no revelations yet! Are they going to rush the ending just like other dramas do? I hope not! Let's keep our fingers crossed.There should be more scenes for the two leads before the legendary line "and they lived happily ever after"!
