Full House (2014)

Majority says this is the best remake and although I usually don't like remakes I have to agree hands down this is the best of the lot.

They did almost every thing right. The 2 main ingredients for a good romantic drama in my book was done so well. First the two leads were so correctly cast. They have chemistry and there was an ease in their interactions. I truly see when Mike looks at Aom there's interest sometimes tenderness in his gaze. Either he's a great actor immersed in the character or he's quite taken with her in real life. Secondly the storyline puts focus on them. The entire series reserved most of the screen time for them. That means we see them interact a lot. They spend a lot of time communicating fighting quarreling doing mundane things to sight seeing and also cycling. In the process you witness how they got closer starts to understand each other and fall in love. So 2 beautiful ingredients brewed to a very enjoyable drama

So plotwise I do like how it deviated from the Korean version. We also get a lot of Korea in this drama . almost like selling Korea as tourist destination. Lol

Min was quite an annoying character but thankfully overall she wasn't overly featured compare to other versions. But be advised episode 16 to 18 were my least favorite. Meanwhile episode 19 is mostly flashback. If you've missed some of the cute and romantic scenes between Aom and Mike, you most likely will catch it in episode 19.

Of course not everything makes perfect sense, some clichés too but it didn't affect my viewing or enjoy a nice love story. I have to !mention I much prefer Mike's outfit here to Rain's . and Mike's character is better too. Cause early on wr already see he demonstrated a soft side to Aom. And they were on friendlier terms faster too. Their bickerings were mostly cute instead of hurtful. Aom's character is also a nice balance of cute and naivety but she's not clueless. In fact I found it admirable that once she realised her feelings she admitted it instead of lying to herself. So refreshing to see.

This review is getting lengthy but really there's lots to love in this drama for its simple take that's right up !y alley. So after this I'm jumping on to Kiss Me drama staring the same leads..

If you're looking for a cute, fluffy, and lighthearted drama, then this one is for you! This drama/lakorn is so well made and pretty much gave me a high on feels. It was THAT good.
The cinematography was amazing, and can definitely compete with that of kdramas. The color palette was refreshing and gave a nice laid back feel to the drama.
The story itself was told in a relatively good pace. It gave a lot of time for the development of their relationship and you can really see how they fall in love. The downside to it, however, is that it felt a tiny bit dragged out during the middle, but it definitely did not affect the show too much. It held my interest and just seeing them interact is enough to keep watching.
As if you needed another reason to watch, the main actors were amazingly casted. Mike is so so so hot and Aom is super pretty. Plus, they have the best onscreen chemistry. For the drama, they sang a song for the ost, so you know the music is good.
To conclude, I would definitely recommend watching this!!!

Full House was the first Thai Drama I watched and I really really liked it. I already tried chinese and taiwanese drama, but I just can't get used to the languages xD So I was really happy to like this one, as now I have more options apart from Kdrama and Jdrama to watch. Now to my review:

Story:
Nothing new, two people moving in together due to some (unfortunate? ;)) circumstances and they fall in love. But this version of the story went to another level. There are many different storylines and cute and funny scenes that make this "old" story feel really refreshing.

Acting/Cast:
That was really good. Am's character was a little annoying in the beginning, but that was probably how she was supposed to be. I hated Mintra from the first to the last episode, but that's also how it was supposed to be ;) And then there is Mike D'Angelo. Didn't know him before. And now I love him :D No, seriously, he's a great actor! Will definitely watch some other stuff with him now. And maybe also listen to his music ;)

Music:
Aaaaaaaaaargh! Don't get me wrong, the selected songs were nice, but they were there ALL. THE. TIME! That became reaaaaaally annoying and made me turn down the volume several times. Please, directors and cutters, stop overdoing it with the music!

Rewatch Value:
I don't rewatch dramas that often, so I will probably not rewatch this. Maybe I'll rewatch some scenes only. There were some really nice and cute ones (Hint: Ice Cream :D)

Overall:
A solid 8. Apart from the annoying music there were also some scenes where it was not apparent why they were there. I suppose they just needed to prolong this drama to get to the 20 episodes. 16 episodes would have been enough! But, again, apart from that, a really great drama!

I watched the original Korean version and I like this Thai version much more.

The chemistry between the main leads is off the charts! I really love their banter, their sweet moments and them just being together in one screen is enough for me to watch this again.

What I did not like? The supporting actress/third party  - she is way tooo old for Mike! They should've picked a better, much younger actress. She looked more like an aunt than a love interest.
The second male lead almost gave me the 2nd male lead syndrome. And I say almost, but not quite. The leads really do belong to each other and the chemistry was unequaled!

This was my first Thai drama and only one and best one!!
I've never seen any other versions of full house. Once I started this drama, I was hooked. Sorry but I'm a crazy fan girl who was going insane over mike!!
At first, I find the language funny cuz I'm just not use to it yet. Soon, I discovered it's just a language similar to Vietnamese and Asia. Everyone was Thai except they all look American ish.
I loved the story since it was so cute n bubbly. It was like I was there living in the full house n traveling to Korea along with them. It was a lot of fun.
Some characters were not likable but the main leads are perfect for each other. They should be a real couple. Mike is so hot n sexy. He was lame sometimes but his character developed so creatively. It's crazy cuz I had a girl crush on aom am. She's totally adorable.

The chemistry was too cute!! We laughed, cried, screamed!
Is there even a reason not to watch this?
I had one regret. I regret not watching this drama earlier. How could I miss out?

Let me get this out of the way…if it wasn’t for Mike Angelo I would probably have dropped this drama.

I wanted to strangle Mike’s character, he was so wishy washy with his feelings. The i-promised-to-take-care-of-you-since-childhood angle was infuriating. He did redeem himself in the end as expected. Mintra’s character was so irritating – by the way it wasn’t because the actress played the character well – the character itself was just super annoying even when she supposedly realized her selfishness towards the end, I still didn’t like her. Aom-am at least wasn’t a total pushover. My favourite character was Guy – no nonsense and straight to the point.

There were cute moments; it’s a rom com after all. The leads looked cute together - especially when they were in their honeymoon. I did find that there were too many reminiscing moments and played back over and over – about three episodes I would say – it was like a travel documentary of Seoul (I wonder where the beach scenes were).

Rewatch? Not sure, there’s that annoying character that goes between throughout the cute moments of our leads.

One of the latest thai lakhorn i watched is "Full House",the popular adaption of the classical korean drama from 2004.I think this adaption of Full House 2014 are the most popular remake ever.I enjoyed this thai version very much,but i still love the korean version more,it may be because it`s the one i watched first or cuz it`s the original one.But many also love the thai version more.Like many lakhorns,this also involves love-triangle.It`s a really adorable love-story about strangers that develop a friendship that soon blooms to a love so strong that they can`t live without each other.Mike and Aom became a koo-jin after this drama and i understand exactly why.

Full House (Thailand) (2014) - this remake of the Korean version is very nicely done. Both characters portraying the main lead are good at their crafts, although I did feel that they are too young for the roles/characters. I got the aura of the leads more on the teenager rather than mature vibe that I would want since they are both in the working age in the drama though I don't really know the age of the actors and actress. I think that was a drawback for me while watching this.

Still, I'm glad that they showcased the drama really well for a remake, the fun parts are there which was also highlighted in the OG drama.

It took me only 2 days to finish watching this. After seeing the original korean drama several years ago and being a fan of it, I just had to take a look at this version. Fortunately, it didn't disappoint. And, what's more: now that I know there's going to be a chinese version too, I just can't wait for it to air.

No matter how many times this story is reproduced, to me it never gets old. The best thing about the thai version is Mike. He's just so adorable that it's difficult to stay mad at him, differently from Young-jae of the korean version.

Am is cute, but she seemed most of the time too childlike. I had to keep on remiding myself she was a woman already. I wish her hair had been straight, she would seem more mature that way.

Right, there's one thing that I must seriously complain about though: what's with that P' Guy guy and his english? Totally unnecessary. It really got to my nerves, I skipped almost every scene he was him, specially when Min was in it too. Second lead syndrome was impossible for this version.

The ost is good, though I got tired of the main song quickly, it's just too overused.

I'm watching this drama because I've been watching the original drama from Korea. And it is the first Thai drama that I watched and the result was beyond my expectations, the drama is really good, the Thai remake has its own characteristics even though they remake drama from other countries.

Story
For the story is not much different from the original, just plus a few things that characterize the Thai and it is beautiful and sweet. The story develops gently and sweetly. Misunderstanding between Mike and Sushar, marriage contract and pretending to be husband and wife, and living together make love grow between them. The best scene is when Mike and Sushar kiss while shooting the ad and when Mike makes an MV aimed at Sushar.

Act / Cast
For casts I just saw them first and I fell in love with Mike, Sushar, Utt and Jane. Mike and Sushar performed the right and sweet acting, the chemistry between the two was lively, seeing their scenes made me smile on my own. Scenes when they fight, begin to fall in love, tease each other, mutual attention, jealousy, and climax when a separation occurs. They are presenting great acting. Not forgetting the acting from Utt and Jane which was nice as well.

Music
Very very very fond of the music presented in this drama. Nice opening and closing music, and an MV made by Mike, when he and Sushar split up.

Rewatch
It's really recommended to watch it repeatedly. Drama remake and original, both have their own superior side.
