I think James Ji acting is below par and couldn't pull off any better as compared to the earlier 2005 series acted by Ken Theeradeth. He may have to charm and looks but his acting skills need improvement. I don't understand why would the FL got attracted by the ML who is self centered and doesn't show his gentlemen attitude deserves liking. Although Yaya's acting is way better than mediocre, however James Ji bland acting skills can't make up a good show. The bickering was too long I couldn't find there's any chemistry between the two, so I dropped at episode 5.
