Ka Khong Khon: Ep4 clothes burning scene

I am watching “Ka Khong Khon (The Value of a person or A Person’s Value)” on Ch7. I do like it a lot actually, it’s a hard-core soap opera style lakorn. We got all the goods that makes this a classic—an impoverish nang’ek  whose brother is addicted to gambling an owes a lot of moolah (10 million baht) to hoodlums, an arrogant/dumb/ rich pra’ek who doesn’t know a good woman when he sees one.

In the first few minutes of episode 2, pra’ek told his brother: “all women are alike, their only difference is their price.” I was like, oh hell to the no, he did not just say that. Just at the moment, I wanted to insert the ‘f’ word, the ‘a’ word, the ‘m-f’ word, and the ‘I’m gonna kick your ass’ word phrase in there too. I’m sorry mister, I DON’T need you, I can pull out my own chair and buy my own dinner from McDonalds, thank you very much. By the way, can I borrow a dollar so I can buy 2 baked apple pies from the value menu.

We have a replacement for “Reun Son Ruk”

FINALLY! We have an air date for the next lakorn replacing “Reun Son Ruk (House of Concealing Love)”, it’s “Ngao Hua Jai (Shadow of the Heart)”. It will premier this coming Monday, June 28.

You can read the translated summary here.

I would categorized it as a typical lakorn (like everyone else). Let see, we have a pathetic nang’ek with a fudged up family, her older and father are gambling addicts. She’s hopeless, poor, she has a ailing mother who would later die. She experiences one great love with pra’ek, who happens to be super rich (aren’t they all). Because of gambling debts, her brother steals 3 million baht from pra’ek and framed her for it. Thus, our poor/ pathetic nang’ek is forced to run away from her pra’ek without telling him the truth.

Fast-forward 6 years later, pra’ek is pathetic too, not with money, he has a lot. Nope, he is emotionally pathetic because of what she did to him, he still loves her, he can’t forget her because she was his great love. Six years later, they meet again. He’s pretty upset, she denies that she is the same girl he once knew. She is going by a different name now. But she looks like the same girl  with the same mannerism of a girl he once loved and knew. He does find out she is the same woman he once loved. Out of revenge, he makes her his mistress. Get where I’m going with this, TYPICAL!

“Ngao Hua Jai (Shadow of the Heart)” stars New Wongsakorn and Noon Woranuch. I’ll give it a try. Lakorns are predictable, I still like them.

Noon looks strange

Really. They were concern about that when all of Bangkok was besieged with flames.  Noon held her engagement ceremony and signed her marriage license on May 14, a Friday. A few days later, she held her wedding reception at the Royal Jublilee ballroom, part of the Impact Arena complex. Thai netizens have been pointing out, she looks different. She looks like a Thai plastic barbie. Thai netizens suspect Noon Woranuch had botox injections done before her nuptials. Did she? Her face is without lines, her smile is not defined. I’m not sure, I’m not an expert when it comes to spotting plastic surgery or botox injected faces.

She looks normal to me. A video of the couple when they met the media and a clip of their reception.

Noon and Todd wed under difficult circumstances

Oh My GOSH, Bangkok burns, Noon and Todd wed. Zen shopping center was burned down by ‘red shirt’ protesters after their leaders surrendered and were arrested yesterday afternoon Thailand time. Central World shopping center was burned down, Ch3 offices were attacked. No lakorns airing today on Ch3.

Reporting from the Associated Press about Ch3:

Protesters had already turned their rage on the local media, which they have accused of pro-government coverage. They attacked the offices of state-run Channel 3, setting fire to cars outside and puncturing water pipes that flooded the building.

“At Channel 3 need urgent help from police, soldiers!!!” tweeted news anchor Patcharasri Benjamasa. “News cars were smashed and they are about to invade the building.”

Noon and Todd did not want to cancel the second part to their wedding because they have been planning it for over a year. It was meant to be a big wedding, considering the political circumstances, they understand it will be rushed because of the curfew and not all their guests will attend.

“I’m very concern about today’s situation, especially regarding our wedding guests and the mass media. I am concern about the safety of everyone. For that reason, those who could not attend and fear that Noon and I will not understand. We would like to tell them, we understand it WELL. Today, we will try to make everything go as fast as possible. The truth is we have been planning this event for over a year and have been following the news. Our elders have been preparing the security aspect of the wedding since the beginning,” said Todd.

Someone has been noted saying this is like 9/11 in Bangkok. It looks very familiar-smoke, fire, brings back memories.
