Kom Faek 3?

Lets not. Two was enough. Why another one? Then again, I didn’t watch part 1 or 2, so I shouldn’t say anything. I’m not part their fanbase. Usually I watch all lakorns while it is currently on air, not this lakorn. I totally skipped it. Not my type of lakorn, I hate action lakorns, they have this big tendency to be uber corny. I don’t know about Kom Faek, it was a smash hit, Part 1 and Part 2, beating the competition both times in terms of TV ratings. Maybe it wasn’t so corny, still I’m not going to watch it.

So they are saying Kom Faek: Checkmate ended vaguely, like they are setting up for a sequel. I don’t know, like I said, I didn’t watch it. One of the characters, Sheriff Ongat (played by Oh Anuchit ?) came back to Muang Pon (the Kom Faek town) even though the real and the fake Sheriff Ongat died. The fake and the real, so there were two? I really don’t know what they are talking about. Also the ending picture for the last episode had 3 kom Faek sticks lined up, hinting there might be a 3 installment for this franchise lakorn.

Many are excited about the prospect of a third installment of “Kom Faek”, others went a tangent and trashed the script.  “I pity the actors who have to act in this lakorn, ” someone wrote. Others defended Kom Faek  by saying if you don’t like it, don’t watch it. There were several comments for the article (270 the last time I checked) compiled into 17 pages, so it is a hot topic.

Nothing has been confirmed but I get the feeling there will be a 3rd installment. Will you watch?

“Tomorrow, I’ll still love you” Teaser

Two words to describe the teaser, major drama. Totally an Exact production lakorn, nonsense drama. But you never know, it could be enjoyable.

“Proong Nee Gor Ruk Ter (Tomorrow, I’ll still love you)” stars Aom Piyada and Pong Nawat as two lovers torn apart by murder. Pong’s crazy older sister murdered Aom’s sister because she believed Aom’s sister was having an affair with her husband played by James Ruengsak. You can read more about the plot here.

The teaser subbed by JakjannSFClub:

Pong comes off as a scorned lover not fully understanding the real reason why Aom left him. Sucks to be him. At the beginning, Pong looked happy and lively, he’s in love and is about to get married. Then Aom dumps him. From the look of things, his emotional life went downhill from there. You can see in his eyes, the resentment he has towards her when they meet again years later.

There is a part in the teaser where she is applying for a position in his company. He brings her into his office and asked, “you had worked in New York, why did you come back for?” When he asked that question, he is slouched down on his chair, he’s lifeless, angry, like the sight of her is sucking the living being out of him. It’s like he is saying, I was doing just fine until you came back into my life. Poor guy.

Air Date: October 26, 2009
