The Dorama Queen
Această recenzie poate conține spoilere
A cute cliché...and what's wrong with that?
PLOT: The story is about Poon, a cute poor guy that has a small food stand to support his brother through college. Everything starts when he meets Tian, a "fierce" (a tsundere tbh lolol) rich hotel/restaurant owner, after an almost dangerous incident. It is a classic story of enemies to lovers....there are some cute moments between the lead couple TianPoon, but they barely kiss (maybe 2x in the whole series and it gave "dead fish" vibes). This BL is very light on the kissing and has zero spice (for those who are wondering). However, it is a sweet love story....it's not a great series, but it is definitely not a horrible one either. It's nice for what it is...a cute and innocent 8 episode romantic/foodie series to pass the time. And I'm fine with that! Of course there are some slightly problematic things about their relationship - controlling issues - but nothing uncomfortable to watch, just a tad annoying.
The second couple is also cute, but it's a slow burner, FYI. Tengnueng, a food critic youtuber, has a shitty closeted boyfriend, Thaenkhun, that gatekeeps their entire relationship for 5 years and treats him like crap. He literally made this poor guy (Nueng) pretend they were only business partners for half a decade. After a lot of events Nueng meets Mayom, Poon's friend and also a chef and he puts this guy through a lot lololol. But their arc was cute - but zero kisses.
The villain of the story is a bitchy rich and extremely annoying girl, Amy - Tian and Tewit's friend. She is out for Poon's blood since the 1st second onscreen. It made me VERY angry that Tian basically just let her treat his love like shit and didn't do much about it. Also giving her a happy ending was the worse decision ever! Not every character needs to be redeemable. It's okay to let the villains be unhappy by the end of a series ***sighing in frustration***
ACTING: Well, it wasn't horrible...like I mentioned before, but it isn't great either. Oddly entertaining is the way to describe this series. Don't expect much tbh. It is a very silly innocent romance story with not much to offer. The script also didn't help the cast...there wasn't much to work with. Every arc was very superficial and silly.
