Nabi, My Stepdarling

Just half way through the first episode and i already hate the familial system of the society where this drama has been filmed. The concept designers are so obsessed with butterfly that it is annoyingly everywhere, girl's name, boy's tattoo, CG on the title scroll, metal brioche, applique on gown, post card in a memory box, frosting over the cake, print on the phone cover. Most baffling part is that monarchs appear in a dark corridor of a smoke filled club?.... garden bordering the bungalow or an apartment balcony are still acceptable. Frame, plot, props and locations look recycled. Drama played at a complacently slow pace, typically expected of a lakorn.

Claiming to be one of the remarkable series in the new era 2021, it is just as derogatory storyline as any other. What is new? I wonder how the regular population watches it? I am not a fan of crude male domination over female troupe with slap kisses and coercive wrist pinning to the wall. Why does no one protest this behavior? Roping in Jos, Luke, Fah and Jan didn't quite add to the quality. Despite sorting every thread of the plot, characters seemed to be dallying without closing the act, draining my battery. Papang and Foie failed to impress me. Vanpiya, my gorgeous lady, carried a shady role here. I guess the spotlight that year had been snatched away by the F4. Don't blame us of not watching lakorns with hetero content, if this is the best you got.
