Have you ever been in love?
May 7, 2009To only find out that the person you love, love someone else. It hurts doesn’t it? Especially when the person that receives the love is the one dearest to your heart.
I’ve been in that situation. I know this guy who loves unconditionally but sadly she end up loving his bestfriend. He never asked for her love in return. He stood beside her and cheered her on. He was a dear friend, one I will never trade anything in the world for.
I thought of this story because I just finished watching Rak Sam Sao. I started on this movie a couple of weeks ago but I tuned out since at that time it did not captured my interest at all. Tonight however with my mood for drama, I decided to give it another try since I wanted to know why Koy won the award. In a sense I’m still dont agree to the win since I thought Peak did a much better job but that’s another review for another day.
The story was of 3 bestfriends. Yue (Pei), Fah (Peak), and Nam (Koy) and their love triangle. Nam have always love Yue but he in turn loves Fah. Fah never knew of Yue’s true feelings until Nam told her. Fah decided to give Yue a chance with the encouragement of Nam. All should be well but Fah has a terminal illness. Because Yue took such great care of her, Fah found herself falling in love with Yue as well only to find out one night after Nam was raped by the guy she was dating that Nam also loves Yue. Because of her illness and because Nam is the friend she loves the most, Fah ran away. Yue found himself lost. Meanwhile Nam found herself pregnant and wanted to abort her baby but Yue talked her out of it by saying he will be the father of her child. Struggle between the heart that loves Yue and the heart that love Fah, Nam decided to find Fah. She follows Fah to the island where she was hiding and found that her friend is in her deathbed. Fah and Nam had a heart to heart. Nam told Fah that yes she does love Yue but he loves her, a lot. She decided upon herself to tell Yue where Fah is.
Fah spent the last day of her life in Yue’s arms. Before she died she asked him to promise that he will love her til the day she die. He quicky promise before she added, “then after you will love Nam.” Not long after that, she passed on.
Nam left for England and had her baby girl. 5 years later she return but did not intend to go see Yue. However fate intervene and they met anyways.
The story was very well written as the movie was very well produced. I can see why they recieved as much recognition as they did. All 3 partied did such an amazing job. I think Peak really shine in here and Pei’s emotion at the end when Fah died was tear jerking. I for one can see the hype surrounding Koy and Pei. Now I can also see why Polyplus quickly snatched him for a lakorn.
My ratings: 5/5
