An ACTUAL arranged marriage.
Padiwaradda is a historical lakorn about the arranged marriage between Saran and Rin.
The story is focused on how, despite being in an arranged marriage, the couple can actually develop love and respect for each other.
The story:
- The drama is a slow burn (my favourite) that mainly moves around the main couple. We see Saran and Rin go through the struggles that come alongside the nature of their relationship with one another and others.
- A side plot of the story is with Saran’s job as a police officer, who is investigating the local bandits. With this, we also get to see the Buddhist faith and how it goes against black magic which was, albeit far fetched, still exciting.
- The side characters and couples where also as interesting as the main couple and their stories were pretty well developed and also had important messages behind them .
- An issue I had with this lakorn is the lack of visual storytelling. You are told things that could be portrayed through the actors expression, or things that are already obvious and need no explanation.
The Acting:
- The main couple had very convincing and swoon worthy chemistry. They were believable and enjoyable to watch.
- the acting as a whole was ok. Some where weaker than others but I can ignore that because the main couple was great.
- Every character had substance, they had a personality that explained how they acted. Even the crazy ex girlfriend had reasons for her behaviour despite how ridiculously shameless she was.
The Music:
- I loved the soundtrack for this lakorn. It fit the drama perfectly and was just beautiful on its own, however the same 2 songs where basically used in repeat, which isn’t an issue for me because they where so good.
Rewatch Value:
- I’ve already rewatch it a few times since I last completed it, so it’s safe to say I will be rewatching it plenty.
WARNINGS:
- It’s a historical lakorn so obviously the values and mindsets are quite dated, an example being ‘a wife’s duty’.
- The second female lead and ex girlfriend of Saran, Duangsawat, is crazy and never gives it a rest. Saran will also be quite trying for a portion of this drama.
