GMM 25 and ONE31 is owned by GMM Grammy. It's shows dramas, music, news, and entertainment targeting teenagers. According to the Wikipedia page, it stated that GMM Grammy claims a 70 percent share of the Thai entertainment industry. 

I decide to put GMM 25 and ONE31 under the same list because they both are from the GMM Grammy.

(Image credit to sharerice.com/Asianfuse)
U Prince Series is consist twelve parts about twelve male ambassadors of their university.

I was excited about this series because it starred some of my favorite actors and actresses from GMM. This a great series for any one that wants something fast and doesn't involve a lot of drama. The story line in all the parts are really interesting. I, of course, like some more than others. I think starting Esther and Put in this series first is a very good choice because it was eye catching and got my excited about the rest of the parts. I personally really like the last two parts of this series but overall it short, simple and easy-going.

If you read the previous blog post then you would know that I have seen the original version of this lakorn and I love it already. There were two reason why I was really excited about this version.

I love this lakorn. I like Mild's story more than Worranit's story but I love the pairing. Mild and Jirakit had work together before, so I already love them together. The story was interesting and I wanted to end and not at the same time. I would recommend everyone to watch this lakorn.

Although I have never seen the original one, this version was really good. It was fun to watch them lie about each other real status, not the servant only but the main couple too. I though at first when reading the summary and finding out who were the pairs leading this lakorn, that I was not going to like it at all. At this point, I love both Jui and Put, but I wan't sure about together. I am really glad that I watch this lakorn because it fun.

5. Rang Mai Hua Jai Derm (2016)

I hated and love this lakorn at the same time. The only reason is because some parts show View and then switch to Jieb. I understand the story and I know that makes this better in term of visually watching and understanding the story but at one point I was just annoy with it. I went back to re-watch this lakorn over again and found that I really like this lakorn because of the story line. *SPOILER* If I'm correct, Pattinee doesn't die but it was Nalantha who was suppose to die. Nalantha's father claim that Pattinee die and replace Nalantha's heart with Pattinee's heart hence, Pattinee waking up in Nalantha's body.

I was excited to watch this lakorn. It was just fun because they already been paired up before but also because View played twins the in previous lakorn and this time Toomtam play the twins. I honestly think this lakorn is okay compare to their previous work together.

(Image credit to sharerice.com/Asianfuse)

Ugly Duckling is a series with four parts telling different stories between the main girls' life. The girls are connected through a website called Ugly Duckling where they contact each other and tell each other stories.

This series was a lot of fun to watch. I love Perfect Match and Don't the most out of the four parts. The other two parts was alright, although I love Shaun and Esther. I would recommend you to watch the whole entire series because you would sort understand how they became friends or know each other.

Part 1: Perfect Match

Perfect Match starred Put Puttichai as Suea or Leo and Worranit Thawornwongs as Junita or Junior or Joo.

Junita, nicknamed Junior, got a face thread because people said her face was fat. Without knowing that she was allergic to chemicals, it ruined her face by causing acne everywhere. It would take a year to fully recover. After the incident, nobody wanted to get close to her and whoever saw her would call her a ghost-face. She couldn't stand it so she begged her mother to let her study at a college in the countryside to avoid the social life of Bangkok and to have a face treatment done by doctor recommended by the Ugly Duckling forum. This is where she meets Suea, a handsome, flirty, penniless senior, who is the first person to sincerely befriend her despite her looks.

I only watch this lakorn because of View and Shaun. I don't think this lakorn was all that.

(Image and Summary credit to mydramalist.com)

I found this on Netflix and started watching this drama not knowing what it was about. I love and hated the drama. I love that they became friends and bond together over sharing the same blood type. Honestly, majority of people are O type but very few is O-negative. The part I hated and got annoy where the fact that their friendship was always put at sake because of their own attitude and feelings.

(Image and Summary credit to mydramalist.com)


I was super excited about this drama because I love the first one. I was very confuse when I started watching it because I didn't understand it. I later found out that this drama happens before Kiss: The Series. At the end of this drama, I hated it. The only reason why I didn't like this drama was because I wanted more from each other the pairing story line. This didn't give me that. It left me hanging with so many questions like what happen to them.

This end this blog post and the last of the Thailand channels lakorn list. I will be back with another list for Chinese, Hong Kong, and Taiwanese dramas. If you want to know my favorite Korean dramas, you can head to my other blog page where I only post about Korean-related things.
