Para Sempre Meu Raio de Sol (2020)

Precious gem of 2020 with no slap/kiss

•With all the hype created when the trailer and ost were dropped, it actually deserved it that hype. While there was so many spoilers while its ongoing, I couldn’t escape and ended up watching it to avoid spoilers within the last three days of airing. Its a no slap/kiss romantic tale which makes it one of the best drama of 2020 with lots of life lessons.
•Story - writers did an excellent job making it a steady romcom.while it, well the synopsis goes for three four episodes, it made me confused that it might be typical revenge lakron type but its nowhere like that. Its beautiful story of a teenage who lost her parents and then grow to be a kind person with life as a teacher.The screen-play and scripting were done beautifully.while the first half is amazing 2nd half is rocky yet interesting.
•Acting-
◇Kao as paeng in teens just fabulous. She was too the point portraying her bratty character. then playing an adult she was so mature and superb.I just loved her mouth patterns while getting angry.
◇Mark Prin as Artit just nailed his character. He is one of the reasons I watched the drama. His expressions were just apt, and made the show more watchable. His jealousies, possessiveness,romance were totally flattering and very lively.
◇Sirilak as Ling- I liked her maturity since start. Her eyes were so innocent that it speaks itself. Since its her first lakron she did amazingly well.
◇Duke bandhej as kongprateep/ artits father was an angel. He was the most normal person of the drama and his acting was unbelievably believable.
Punjan as non and freud as kot were also amazing. They were like support system of the drama.
▪︎Heading to negative characters:
◇Daew as Mark- he played his character well as its written. I hated him because he is a villane, but He could have done better with expreassions
◇Karun as nang and Mam as tubtim were the charactes I hated to bones. Their evilness couldn’t be explained as they were like setup only to bully the female lead.
•Music- just amazing, from the opening track to ending track I didn’t skip any. Opening ost “my forever sunshine” is amazing,and has a beautiful MV too with the cast dancing to tunes. You must check out MV.Yes I feel like dancing too.
BGM when leads are together, was truly making my heart beat. Hoooohoooohoooo it was something like this.
Other BGM and other tunes were nice and based on situation.
•Rewatch- its not a question to be asked. Ofcourse yes
▪︎Appreciation- I just loved the scenes and the colors filled in it. The detailing in the romantic scenes were excellent I couldn’t stop prasing the director and editor. I loved the costumes of female leads as a teenage.
▪︎Criticism- flaw was nobody actually cared to ask why paeng behaved as bratty instead assume thing everytime. Somewere it felt like supporting character were gone. Non and Ling could have made a good story. Villain was introduced very late and abruptly.
▪︎Life lessons
1》The best person to teach us is ourselves(paeng)
2》Do not take advantage of situation and respect your loved one and family

I think, this is the best lakorn i've ever seen so far (my list is short). From beginning until the end, this lakorn is not making me want to fast foward or skip some scenes. I can truly enjoy this lakorn and relate to those characters.

First, i really like the story. It is really light but also put some weight in their dialogues and details. Many of those make me more appriciate about family, friends and the one you loved. You also can not easily judge someone for being evil just because you only see the result, but the process and their motives also very important. The influence from significant others also can trigger someone for either being a better person or even worse. And also how patience and love from someone you believe in is very important, especially when you are at your teen stage. Because in that stage, some teenager find it is really hard to communicate with older people, not to mention having a psychological trauma. The lack of quality time with your parents also can make a teen who emotionally not yet stable, for having a temper tantrum issue (this is a common problem in middle up family). On the other side, a mother will do whatever she can to protect her child, even if it would make her being hated. So, i really can relate with the story and find it quite realistic.

The characters are also believable, although some deliver more like a caricature for comedic purpose. It also has a makjang time, but i think it is normal and still... This is a soap opera, isn't it? The ML and FL also very good for bringing their characters into flesh. And i must admit, i really love Mark Prin's acting here. His acting is really natural and on point. I love how he can easily shifting his expression from being naughty to shock or nervous with little effort. He also can deliver emotion with his eyes, without being a mopey or having a dramatic crying scene like most of *drama that i've ever watched (imo). The FL also quite good when she is acting fierce and cute, but i think she can improve more in her expression, specially her eyes cause sometimes i find it hard to relate with her emotional scene (maybe because she has big eyes, i dunno). The supporting characters also do their job very good. They all have motives, and make me understand why they can act like that.

For the music ( OST & BGM) itself, i find it match with the scenes very well. The editing also very good, and you can see how beautiful the scenery is. The props, wardrobes and color palette are really neutral, beautiful and easy in eyes. If i have to complain, it is the pacing. Although has a good storytelling but it is very slow burn, and if you didn't binge watching then maybe it is really hard to bringing back the 'feeling' from previous episode (imo). And in earlier episode, there is some scenes that i find it weird and do not match with the timeline. But as the story progresses, everything is told really good and every story has satisfying closure (imo).

I really recommend this lakorn, because it is less dramatic and focuses in character development. But of course, this lakorn is not for everybody. Some find it quite unrealistic and too many exaggerated acting. I suggest if you still want to watch but only the good part of the drama, then just find clips on youtube. There's lot of sweet moment and it is satisfying to watch Mark Prin being bullied by a little girl hehehe ;)

Mark is love

I didn't think I would like it this much..I just came for Mark prin the male lead..but it changed my perception...

First five episodes were too much for me..I mean first three eps were boring but all about how it all starts and next two eps were annoying cause you would hate the FL to death ..
Coming from a problematic family she is stubborn and childish and seeing the ml being so understanding she is obsessed with him and caused him to almost lose his life..
Athit hates her like anything but she after six years is a complete different person..

But athit and everyone around him hate her except for his dad who understands her issues...
Athit bullies her and she endures but slowly he falls for her

If you think you know the most jealous boy then you haven't met athit..he is extreme..and I liked it....I realllllllllyyyyyyyyyyyy liked it

I absolutely hated Nang and two farm Maids until last two eps.

If you ask me I like the villain (mark not mark prin)he was obsessed with paeng and could do anything for her..they choose the villain really hot and dashing..his smile!!! Gawwwd
He too had a problematic past hence he chose wrong paths but anyway met his end..

The ending was soo good..
Athit is an awesome actor he is soooooo natural...his smile his tears his eyes are sooo expressive..
If not for the first five eps I would have rated it full....
But amazing drama and my longest review

Great Lakorn

I've been waiting for Mark prin & Kao's pairing, and this meet my expectation.
The story was great, except i wish the writer & director could more scenes of Paeng's transformation & her college friends. At least they could appear more during Atrit's courting Paeng & their wedding.
They had the same major, agriculture; they could been a great help for Paeng to build the rode garden.
Too bad..they could been great adds for Atrit & Paeng's story
As for Paeng's character development, she's been thru so much for any human can experience, plus she was a little when it happened. I wish the writer could show the progress bit more, it will be inspirational for many people.

Arthit is as warm as Morning and Evening's Sun to His Wanfahmai

How should I start this? um I just signed up to this account just to leave a review for this drama. That's how good and worth-watching it is!
I will remember Paeng and Arthit for a long long time. I'm having a hard withdrawal sympthom now. It had been such a long time since I have this kind of feeling. I would like to thank Kao & Mark for reviving my interest to really be in love with a lakorn. I'm more into kdrama/cdrama, this is my first lakorn after quite some time and I didn't regret it at all. Thank to these two I felt excited again to watch a drama.
First 5 episodes might be hard to watch for some people or hard to like FL Paeng because she's so pushy but you will understand where she's coming from once you watched further, she was just 15 at that. You need to watch until ep6 to see her character development and she will become very likeable. She's very misunderstood as a rebelling teenager. At first I was annoyed to see her so clingy to her mom but people who had watched till the end will know her mom was a bitch. She's not a brat and clingy without no reason. Her parents' death were too hard to endure for 15y/o tbh, it was indeed traumatizing. But what she did to Arthit can't be brush off at all, she was so selfish but I'm glad she admitted to Arthit's father that she framed him. Sending her back to Bangkok alone was a great decision for her growth but Arthit's father was still there for her, to guide her which was so responsible of him.
Arthit's hatred for her was kinda justified, I understand his hatred and it's legit logical unlike other cliche hate-love dramas where the leads sometime hate each other for no reason lol But I won't justify what he did to her as revenge, he's overboard sometimes. But I like their banter with each other because Paeng is not someone who can be easily bullied as well. I really like that trait of hers, she won't back down when she's treated unfairly. She tone down from how she was as rebellious teenager but the fighter Paeng is still there, just more mature and soft. I really love Paeng's character development. However, it was Arthit who turned for the worst. He held grudges for her because his original dream to become a rugby player went shattered because of his injuries after the accident. I'm glad he admitted that it was his fault to drive under influence tho after he realized his mistake, even tho he was controlled by his emotion because of Paeng's accusation but it was his own fault he did DUI. His character became so much better after he realized he loved her. Arthit was indeed as warm as the morning & evening's sun to his Wanfahmai (sky aka Paeng). They should have maintained As Long As They Sky Has The Sun as the drama title.
I love all their moments together, their chemistry was really strong. The way they looked at each other?
Kao and Mark really did such a good job for their characters, they're really P'Arthit and
Paeng. I read some parts of the novels and they really matched their characters from the
novel itself.
The cinematography of this drama is amazing! I love all the nature, green, flowers, farm, waterfall and those gorgeous farm mansion, Paeng's mansion in Bangkok, the white worker cottage etc. I felt like I was travelling there while watching, which really helped to boost my mood during this pandemic.
Finally, the wedding scene! that was so beautiful, the HQ pics of it were so beautiful. Kao & Mark looked like they're married for real lol what a beautiful couple. The visuals of the leads, the friends, sceneries were all top notch imo.
This is getting longer but hey I signed up to express how I love this lakorn. I'm bias but this lakorn is my top favourite now indeed. I wish Kao and Mark will work together again in another lakorn because their chemistry is really strong, their baby-face visuals look compatible as well. It's hard to let go of My Forever Sunshine. I'm not gonna move on to another drama for some time for sure.
Watch this drama! Worth my sleepless night trying to binge-watch it all. Props to the actors, director, scripwriters, production staffs etc to complete the shooting in a rush but still nailed it very well. Last 30min of the drama, I was left giggling the whole time while kicking my blanket over how cute and precious it was. What an unforgettable drama. Okay, Adios.

Legit best enemies to lovers ever <3

Now I am coming from a long history of K or c dramas. Seen 100s of them. This one is so so special, honestly I had 0 expectations, I saw some good comments here and just jumped in. I actually ended up binging it.

The storyline is so fresh, set in a beautiful farm in countryside. A spoiled rich girl Paeng, recently orphaned moves there, falling for the owners son Athith who is initially like a warm sun to her in cold winter. She is 15 and obsessive for him, wrongs him and harasses him in the process. So ML has a legit reason to hate her. One great thing in this drama side character farmers of the farm are hilarious, and the maids and such, I usually skip those scenes in other dramas, but not here! It is well woven into the story and fun.

The character of ML and how Mark plays him is probably the most beautiful I have seen in forever, I could not fault with his acting in a single scene, his eyes, body language and soulful smile just weave magic. In scenes where he is in love he lights up like a chirstmas tree and his eyes twinkle like a 5 year old. He really is like actual sunshine.

FL obsessive phase is until episode 5, then she begins a character redemption. When she comes back, Athith punishes her rightfully so, to see his warm personality turn so cold is also fun to watch. Until episode 9 we clearly see that he begins to realize she has changed for good. The story is never rushed, both ML and FL progress wonderfully in their character. FL acting skills are great as well, they have a great chemistry together. The second FL is really beautiful, I could not take my eyes off her, she plays a really gentle character well. For the first time I could not tell in the initial episodes if 2nd FL was really interested in ML lol.

Overall a wonderful drama, its unique story gave many rich interactions. I skipped very few times. Last comment - it is indeed lakorn, so you have the hands thrown and typical snake elements to it, haha. Come in for the ride, just enjoy, rest your brain from judging all the time. Its about time sis.

Okay wasn't really expecting much when I started this but here it goes...

I was just searching online something that is not korean, rom-com, and has one of my fave cliches --- the love triangle. And fortunately, this did not disappoint.

I mean don't get me wrong, there are a lot of things that can be improved in this drama but somehow towards the end it just all worked together.

PLOT - at the beginning, a lot of things were happening even before the characters got introduced so it made me confused for a while but eventually got the hang of it.
- As cliche as it may be, love triangles are one of my favorite tropes in drama. I love seeing the ML get all jealous and over protective. It was just kinda weird that Mark was the one involved in the love triangle. I mean, hellooooo (SPOILER ALERT) you were the lover of the FL's mom. Feels really weird to start a relationship with the daughter of your ex donchathink?
-It was just weird that in the beginning the FL was one of the youngest characters in the drama BUT she was acting more mature than the adults. I mean, was it really hard to give the 15yo who recently lost her parents and had her life turned upside down some space and understanding? What adult in the right would tell her in her face that this or that happened because she doesn't have any parents to teach her? Or every time she argued with her classmates, why did no one listen to 2 sides of the story? Why didn't anyone noticed she went home in her socks or she wasn't wearing her uniform anymore? Seriously, this was one of the biggest flaw of this drama.

SETTING - This show made me realize more how I love to live on a farm and manage one. Love it!!!!

CHARACTERS - Overall I really liked all the characters. Most especially their chemistries with each other. What I just didn't understand the most were the 2 maids of the ML and the mother of the ML. They were seriously acting so immature throughout the drama that it was really annoying.

Overall, I liked the drama. I liked the vibes it gave. Was able to finish it in 1 day and a half. Now unto the next one.

BEST LAKORN EVER

My mood after finished watching this drama : ??????
It's a very heartwarming romantic-comedy drama. This drama came out 2yrs ago but I only watched it in 2022. I'm late to the party lmao but I'm still grateful that I decided to watch this. I think My Forever Sunshine might be Mark Prin's best drama ever.

What I like the most about this drama is the chemistry between Mark and Kao. I mean they looked so in love with each other that if both of them are still single, I would've suspect that they were catching some real feelings for each other lol In terms of visual and appearance, Kao is Mark's most compatible partner so far. Mark's past female co-stars were mostly quite tall and had a model-like figure but Kao is petite and she has a small body frame. Seeing how she perfectly fitted in Mark's arms during their hugging scenes are so heart-fluttering.

So, the storyline is amazing. Paeng is actually one of the best female lead in lakorn ever. Her character development is insanely good. The title of this drama itself was about how Arthit is the sunshine of her life. The drama revolved around her life. Everyone thought Paeng as just a spoiled rich girl so she had a hard time in making friends. She had no friend and she craved for her parents' affection. Arthit was her first friend and also the person who understood her the most. That's why she desperately tried to hold onto him to the point that her innocent first love for Arthit became an obsession. Paeng, at 15years-old, she was young, immatured, childish, bold, reckless and careless. However, after 6yrs, she returned as new version of Paeng, she was a lot calmer, forgiving and strong but her personality as a bold, honest, and straightforward girl were still there. Even though she promised to do anything to get Arthit's forgiveness, but she ain't go down without a fight. She could take the bullying but if it went too far, she would fight for justice lol That's why Arthit couldn't win over her.

After experiencing a life-changing car accident which was partly due to Paeng, Arthit, a gentle and kind man who was always pampering Paeng changed into an impatient and cold man. He hated Paeng. When Paeng returned home after 6yrs, he bullied her so much but at the same time he couldn't help but worried about her. To be honest, in my opinion, most of his bullying was part of his life lessons to Paeng. He wanted to train her by making her worked here and there so that she could manage her own rose garden but due to his ego and pride, he unintentionally making Paeng angry and misunderstood his purposes. Then, in that process, he realized that he had feelings for her after all.

After they reconciled, the viewers would be getting tons of sweet and heartwarming scenes from Arthit and Paeng. The scene where they were watching the sunset and Arthit confessed his feelings towards Paeng. Paeng said that she didn't dare to love him anymore. The experience was too scary and traumatic for her but Arthit promised her that if she loved him again, he would never allow those traumatic events to happen again. Then, they had their first genuine kiss ? There's also the scene where Paeng proposed to Arthit by confessing her feelings loudly through the microphone and speaker. She wanted everyone to know that Arthit is the only person that managed to enter her life and successfully became her sunshine. Last but not least, the chaotic-yet-sweet wedding scene. This is my fav scene from this drama. Arthit and Paeng's gazes towards each other that were filled with love and affection. Arthit's smiles when Paeng kissed him first.

Overall, if you wanted to watch a complete romance-friendship-family type of drama, then My Forever Sunshine is the perfect one.

Good Chemistry

I was actually waiting for this one, The plot is not something new especially with Mark Prin being the bully. Paeng is really annoying at first and of course Arthit.. They’re both so childish. The mother of Arthit is also Childish. A lot of characters here are childish.
But I do like Arthit’s dad.

There’s a time gap I think 4years? Or 6years? I’m actually confused. But, after that time gap Paeng is very likable. She matured a lot. Arthit remained to be immature, their chemistry save them for me. They’re cute.
I also like some secondary characters, like Thanon, Ling and tot and surprisingly Nang at the end part.
Anyway, this ia watchable but Husband in Law is still my fav from Mark prin. And Kao will alwqys be sprite to me :)

It is my first time watching a drama that I didnt hate the fl even though she acts like a spoiled brat. Since she lost her parents at a young age and what environment she lived in (a very busy father and a socialite mother), I understand all of her actions. Since there is no one to protect her aside from her 2 nannies, I am satisfied with how she responds to those people who bully or disrespected her tho her response is through physical fighting. At the beginning Wanfamai x Arthit scenes are sooo cute, but when Wanfamai gets obsessed with Arthit, at first youll be embarrassed for what she did, youll get angry but later on you cant help but pity her.

Aside from that, you will hate many characters in this drama. I dont like Arthits mother, Duang and Jaem. They are older than Wanfahmai but they pick a fight with a child lol. And even saying things that are below the belt, that triggers Wanfahmais trauma. Aside from that I dont like how they always blame Wanfahmai, when there is a fight happening with Nang or with Arthits mother with the 2 cooks. But since they dont know Wanfahmais story and personality, I tried to understand what they did.

Next is Arthit being a green flag to a red one. When Wanfahmai had a good character development, Arthit did the opposite one. He blames Wanfahmai for his injury that hinders his dream to become an athlete when he should be blaming himself for being so stupid to drive while drunk.

But I like how they slowly realize that they love each other, I like how Arthits friends and the farmers didnt harbor any negative feelings towards wanfahmai even though she did wrong to them. + Arthits dad is very understanding to her, he didnt gave up on guiding her until she became a matured person. I also like how the drama was split and introducing another problem, the first half of the drama is about the fls story, and her redemption arc while for the last half is about her facing her fears and wants to know the truth about her parents death.

The settings of this drama is sooo aesthetic, watching dramas in a farm made me dream to own and manage one.
