10/10 even putting aside my bias lens.
Wonderful cinematography & directing. Yes the source novel is absolutely wonderful but the script-writing of the series & directly brings a different nuance. The characters - from the main heroines to the supporting cast all have so much life.
This is a period romance that is beautifully paced and no scene feels out of place. Every supporting cast is given the right scenes to shine and they serve to move to the plot forward.
Pacing so far is done well. Love scenes are beautifully directed & intimate - and they are not done for the sake of inserting s*x scenes. Rather as a viewer, you get so invested in the relationship that it's only natural for them to be making out/love etc.
In spite of the heavy drama to come, I think the series thus far has managed to tastefully inject comedy together with some light-heartedness.
The Thai Culture & elements are also woven into the plot nicely rather than just randomly showing up as a requirement (because of Ministry sponsorship)
I am so seated for what is to come.
