This has been on my list every since I saw the preview of it when it first came out. I had honestly completely forgotten it until a few days ago when I was cleaning out some old saves instagram posts, and decided finally find where this was and watch it.

And I had a BLAST watching this! I did honestly expect something worse yet better at the same time though. The instagram review had saved with a clip from the drama (I knew how it ended so I am happy to start this "mob" drama) said so many wonderful things about it and how it was their favorite Thai drama of all time, so of course I wanted to watch it. Plus, the cast all looked GORGOUS!

I loved how it played out like one of my Grandma's "stories" I used to watch with her growing up with the usual Thai drama twist that I have a love/hate relationship with. I loved how the characters were driven by revenge and how they were willing to do insane things, such as in a soap opera, in order to hurt one another. Literally, in any other drama I have watched, the bad guy usually kills about one or two people per series tops. This one...I feel that both mains that are getting revenge killed about an average of about two to three people per episode. It blew my mind. Plus, it seemed that all the main characters were immune to bullet shots vs the henchmen who would die from a single bullet wound or getting kicked to the ground.

This drams also somehow had a large and small budget at the same time - the locations and houses were beautiful, yet the special effects were so painfully bad that it was comical.

The revenge part of the story, I very much enjoyed. I loved how if you wronged Sida (she also looked like Emily Gilmore from Gilmore Girls & Regina from Once Upon a Time so I kept calling her Emily) in anyway, she would hire someone to kidnap you so she could personally kill you...and how her son and sister were so loyal to her that they would have gone to their grave convinced that Sida had never killed anyone. I loved how Ae was easily blinded by pretty women and if you wounded his character, he would gamble anything anyway to prove you wrong...but never winning. It was very obvious and it cracked me up that everyone knew this was his weakness expect for him. I would have to say though that my two favorite characters/please don't die #1 & #2 were Mam & Plug. Mam was literally the tombraider and was immune to bullets, while Plug was just there trying this best. Lastly, loved Sila/Tor and how he was this badass who came back from the dead and just knew how to take everyone down by their weakness individually.

With that, there were somethings as well that I didn't like so much. Beginning with Sila/Tor and his romance with Min. I honestly...felt very conflicted about it. Both characters were on complete ends of the revenge scale - Tor/Sila wanted to get absolute revenge for the death of his mother and the attempted murder of him, while Min "accepted" the abuse of her step mother and half sister in hopes that they would see that she wasn't a "stray dog." They grew up together and fell in love as kids, but were separated by the supposed death of Tor, until ep one when Min recognizes him. Tor does everything in his power to make Min leave him alone (as she kept getting in his business trying to prove that he was Tor, and siding with the people he was trying to get revenge on to prove her point), which include making her try to hate him, by being very aggressive and forcing himself onto her. It made me feel very uncomfortable, as Min kept coming back trying to prove she was right and realizing that her was trying to hurt her family, and trying to protect the people who abused her. It made me feel uncomfortable, and tried to validate that he was doing it to protect her, but it went on for so long that I started to think Tor/Sila as a person was honestly... terrifying. I saw it as him abusing her... even though he was he did it so she wouldn't get hurt in his revenge plot, but instead Min started getting abused by the two sides she was fighting to stop and protect.

Besides Tor/Sila and his aggressive love life...I liked him as a character. He was a perfect example of a tragic hero, who needed to lose everything in order to realize he was wrong. Don't get me wrong, every time he challenged Ae or Sida (like when he went full on Kakeguri on Ae) I rooted for him! He had all the necessary pieces to get his revenge and win, except for the fact that he had people he loved who were easy targets.

Min, on the other hand, was a broken record. From the beginning she needed to prove that Sila was Tor so she but into his business whenever she has the chance. That was her first goal. When she finally got the truth, her second and main main goal was to try and convince Sila that forgiveness is better than revenge. Which is great... but she kept saying it to him and trying to convince him in the same way over and over and over again...where I am like...dude... try to do it in another way. Clearly, the way you are doing it is not getting through to him.

It literally took Sila loosing everything for him to realize what his aunt had been telling him for years and then randomly in the final two or three episodes...he was this 180 reborn guy who needed to spread the new word of forgiveness. Which honestly made me dislike this drama and the way things ended with Sida & Sila. It was necessary and I am happy for everyone at the end, but it just didn't make sense to me and maybe it is just because of the dialogue.

Even though I didn't like Tor/Sila and Min's relationship as well as the ending, I had a great time watching this. At some point, I called in work sick so I could spend a whole day watching this drama.
