STORY
A very simple story of mismatched strangers who are forced to share accommodation and slowly feelings start to develop. This reminded me of the Japanese manga and drama Good Morning Call and Chinese campus love stories like Love O2O.
I enjoyed the story for what it was, a light romance where conflicts are something that the Main Leads overcome without being dragged out for an eternity. This is very different from Thai drama's which can't seem to get their pacing right. This had an emphasis on the ROMANCE component of the story and while this was a nang'ek centric lakorn, the p'ek almost got an equal amount of screentime and development.
What I did like a lot was that they made the nang'ek smart and not ditsy, yes she was a bit naive and inexperienced when it came to her job but that was understandable as it was her first proper job. Chinese campus love stories also have a tendency to make the FL a lot dumber compared to the ML and I'm glad to see the Thai version didn't do this.
ACTING/CAST
This had a very idol drama feel to it and was confirmed when I look into the background of Kaimuk and found out she was part of a idol group. The use of pastels in clothing,the colour saturation and gradient gave the drama a light and bright feel. Totally different from the filming style of Thai drama's and was very noticeable.
While I don't think New is a very good actor, he was perfectly cast to play the initially cold Pupaa who changes and turns into a loving boyfriend. The role itself isn't very challenging so it was just right for his acting level. While I know he has done other drama's before and I recently watched the one he did with Pancake; for me, he still feels like a very new actor who has a lot of room to grow. I would love to see him challenge himself in a slap kiss, as that seems to be the dividing line that determines good actors in Thailand, those who can pull it off and everyone else.
Kaimuk was very good in her role and I had nothing major to pick with her acting. She's one of those that grow on you as time passes, I didn't feel that much chemistry between the two leads though.
The secondary leads were a bit annoying at the beginning but once the Main Leads got together they weren't as bad.
Overall no role was very demanding for the actors but I think a more experienced team could have brought out the more subtle emotions and displayed the micro expressions better. However it was still a competant performance by everyone.
MUSIC
Nothing really stood, not even the opening track. Just very average
REWATCH
I might rewatch a few favourite scenes down the track

I am only watching because the leads are good looking... so far.
They tweaked the storyline a bit to match Thai market.So far i don't care about the stories, i just kind of enjoy the scenes of the FL and ML. It's my first Thai series, though kind of shallow, it find it entertainjng.
I'll ad more to these after completing the series. I'll ad more to these after completing the series. I'll ad more to these after completing the series.

Honestly... I read some reviews in comment section before decided watching it. Some of them said that it's pretty different from chinese version since it's more likely adapted from novel. Ok then i gave it a shot in order to prove their claim. Eps by eps went by... I found nothing special that led to hooked me up. Not to mention, main lead's chemistry was smth i couldn't tolerate at all. in other words, it's super so-so!! neither its storyline nor all characters in this drama could afford to be much better until the end.Hence... i dropped by eps 5 cuz i eventually slept while watching it. The most interesting part was the one and only LIN YI! though he acted as a cameo, he really brighten up everyone's day hahah. aside from him, it was just a plain drama. xiexie
