Sampatan Hua Jai (2018)

Loved it!

I love lakorns but, unfortunately, many times I find myself fast forwarding through scenes and episodes of many of the lakorns I watch. Sampatan Huajai, however, was nothing like that! In fact, I found myself going back to rewatch some of my favourite scenes! Miracle!

Weir and Thisa were stunning and, after watching these 16 episodes, I cannot think of a better pair for the role of Naboon and Wan. I loved Naboon and his protective; cunning; caring and lovable (and cute) nature. I loved Wan and her smartness; strength and dedication to her family and ability to think things through and not jump to conclusions. I love how we see their strengths and weak moments. Basically, I loved everything regarding their relationship - which was what I loved the most about this lakorn. I fell in love with their chemistry, their longing eyes, their cute scenes, their respect and support towards each other.

The plot also progressed pretty well and the story was great. It was interesting, gripping and full of action and mischievousness. My favourite action scenes were within the island, they were exciting! The action does slow down after 5 episodes and we start seeing less of the main leads together, which is a bit sad but the lakorn remained interesting and exciting. As usual, there were some misunderstandings between leads - as with every lakorn - but the best thing is that it was not those misunderstandings that drove the story forward since the plot was strong enough to not require that. Even the side stories added to the plot progression. On other lakorns, I usually just roll my eyes when useless side stories show up and skip through the scene. However, the great supporting character in the show made me stay through every scene. They were intriguing and funny and their own stories interesting.

The lyrics were beautiful. "I just realized I can't live without you... Thank you for being in my life " – that’s beautiful! The soundtrack fitted perfectly with the story and the scenes.

Long review short. This is one of the best lakorns I have watched and if you're looking for some good plot and chemistry, with added action, then this is the lakorn for you and I highly recommend it!

I really enjoyed this Lakorn.

The leads were fantastic in each of their roles, the romance was smart and well done. There was plenty of action, great side characters I (for once) didn't want to fast-forward through and the ending was wonderful.

One of my main complaints of a Lakorn is watching 16-30+ hours of a show only to get 2.5minutes of a "happy ending" tagged onto the end. I want a better pay off, you know? THIS is the first Lakorn I have ever watched where the "happy ending" was nearly an hour long. I LOVED and was SHOCKED by it.

I put this Lakorn off for so long and I really regret not watching it earlier. It was fabulous.

Give it a try. I'm certain you'll enjoy it! :-)
