Khu Kam (คู่กรรม)

I know there's many sites already talking about it but I still want to have a say in it and join in. *smiles* 

This Khu Kam (KK) that I'm talking about is the lakorn version in 2013 starring Bie Sukrit Wisetkeaw and Noona Neungtida Sopon. Watch it here : Khu Kam (but no Eng Sub, I'm afraid.)

Official poster of Khu Kam

This lakorn is very nice (I may be biased to Bie), and I really like the chemistry of the two main characters, Kobori and Angsumalin/Hideko.
Oh, and sometimes Angsumalin's character really makes me want to whack her in the head (for being mean to sweet Kobori) but sometimes I admire her. Especially in the few last episodes.
Noona, you go, girl! She's younger than me but so good in acting.





Kobori & Angsumalin's wedding in episode 14.

Cute? From episode 1.

Noona looks like Margie Rasri here (IMO).
