6/10

Started watching this show on Netflix because it looked good and it started out decent but after episode two it got really good. I love the actors in this show especially the guy that played Man (Panichtamrong Peemapol). I think he did a terrific job. I was really rooting for him throughout the series. I liked the chemistry between him and Dao and loved the fact that they did not like each other much in the beginning. I also liked Hongyok despite the fact that her character was super annoying when it came to liking someone. As a sister and a friend she was amazing. If they had toned down her boy crazy she wouldn't be so annoying. Saifah's character was sweet as well and I loved that he was super understanding of everyone around him but I really hated HATED what he did right before he went into the hospital (Trying not to put in spoilers) but it was super douche of him.

Now on to the reason I gave this show a 6. The parents on this show were just horrible but I think Mr. Wanchai is probably the worst. And the fact that things were so easily forgiven speaks more to everyone else's character than Mr. Wanchai. I was really upset when we did not get much explanation for him or the writer's of the series as to why he did what he did and why he took it out on his family. Everyone deserved a better explanation and there should be consequences for your action. Anyway Man was way to forgiving of the whole thing though I am glad since it helps him heal faster. And of all people Arun was coming off as the jerk only he turned out to be the better person in the end and so open-hearted and loving. Did not expect to like him.

Another thing about this show is some things were explored to death while other plots were dropped. The acting was great the directing and sound for the show were horrible. You don't notice this much when you watch show/movie that was done right. But you notice the awkward standing around and the sounds not quit matching the background.

Now since this was a boxing show I expected the boxing and fighting to be a bit better on the show but you can clearly see that person was not hitting them and choreography wasn't great.

Overall, good solid show. I would recommend but not for everyone. Especially if you are watching it for the graphics or fights. You will be disappointed.

You've reached the end.
