Two spoiled pop stars, an unplanned pregnancy, and we have a guy who must bear the brunt of the responsibility in Ch3′s weekend lakorn “Pleng Ruk Rim Fah (A Love Song at the Horizon)”, premiering this Saturday, August 21, 2010.
Hey, Mr. Pop Thakoon is pretty snazzy with his white pimp hat, no shirt vest, and flat stomach. I’ll watch it just for him for his outlandish hip-hop outfits. I’ll mock and I’ll laugh.
Pat Napapa is a pop star in this one, a popular singer, who finds herself pregnant. I’m sure the identity of her baby daddy will be revealed near the end. For now, her character Neera or Namtan pins the responsibility on our pra’ek Ben played by Great Warintorn, who is not too happy about it.
If he lived in America, I’m pretty sure he would be heading straight to the Maury Povich show to part of the their “Who’s the Daddy?” segment. Once Maury opens the white envelope and proclaim Ben as not the father, Ben would be doing the ‘happy’ dance and telling everyone, ‘I told you so, I didn’t even touch her’. The Maury Povich show is trash TV, yet I like it.
Ben is forced by his much older half-brother Borom (Montri Jenuksorn), the boss of the record company Namtan is signed under, to take responsibility for Namtan’s baby. They have to save face, protect Namtan’s image. Someone has to do it, Ben is forced to. He doesn’t like, but he does it claiming always that he is not the father and does not want to take responsibility.
Namtan moves into Ben’s house along with her older cousin Kidakarn (“Benz” Pornchita Na Songkhla). Kidakarn is there for support, to keep an eye on Ben because from what she knows, she believes Ben is the father, though he is not. She is there to nag. Kidakarn and Ben would fight often but there is chemistry between them. Ah…you know where I’m going with this. Kidakarn and Ben equals the PRANANG (leading couple).
Namtan’s baby daddy is Bee (Pop Thakoon), Borom’s son, and Ben’s nephew. He’s a singer also, who is preparing for his debut as an artist. Bee doesn’t want to accept responsibility for Namtan’s child because she has a reputation for sleeping around. E.
