Starring:  Vicky Sunisa, Boy Prakorn, Puri, Bow Benjawan & Ace W

This is actually a remake of yet another old Thai Lakorn which came out probably in the early 90s. I have not seen the old version starring Off Pongpat  (don’t recall the girl name) and dubbed in Khmer as Pleurng Snaeh Komnarch, as it came out prior to my Thai Lakorn addictions however I have heard that it was a hit when it aired. So when I heard there’s a remake I really wanted to see it. It just finish airing last weekend and I just finished watching it a couple days ago. The story had a lot of potentials and the characters played their role well especially for Boy since this was his first lakorn as the leading male however the director or producer didn’t do such a good job, at least in my opinion. It was  dragging a lot in the beginning and then rushed toward the end. A bit too violent (domestic) so it might not be suitable for young children. I’m not going to spoil it for those who would still like to watch it.

Here’s my summary for Fai Ruk Arsoon ไฟรักอสูร 2009.

Kaew (Boy) is a fisherman who loves his wife Wan (Vicky) and daughter very much. Even though Wan is the jealousy and loud mouth talk of the town, Kaew still sacrifice everything and anything for his family. Wan always wanted to go to Bangkok and when they both saved enough money they headed to the city. While checking out shops and markets in the city they lost track of each other and when spotted one was on the opposite side of the road. When Kaew was trying to cross the street to get to his wife Kaew got hit by Vithoun’s (Ace) car. Vithoun took both of them into his house to care for his Kaew’s injured leg then offered them a place to stay. Little does Kaew know Vithoun got his eyes on Wan. He took her dining, tour the city, view the nightlight and after a few drinks along with some sweet talks Wan was willing to give it all. Later Kaew caught them both in bed together and he was outrage. He got physically with Vithoun but Wan ended up hitting her husband with a vase. Wan choose to stay with Vithoun in Bangkok while Vithoun kicked Kaew out of the house and sent him back to Krabi (where he came from).

Heartbroken Kaew returned to the village and nothing seem to make him feel better. He did not care about anything, not even his own daughter who was left to be taken care of by his neighbors and friend Pen (Bow). After some encouragement words from friends and neighbors in the village Kaew was able to pick himself up and started working as a seafood delivery man. Unfortunately, one day on his route he met a girl who resembles Wan so he automatically think that is her, more over she is about to get married, not with Vithoun but another rich guy.

Kaew got extremely upset and gather his friends together to come up with a plan to kidnap Wan. His plan was successful and the person who he thought was Wan was brought back to Krabi. She was torture, chained up, brutally hurt and humiliated in front of villagers. Bystander did not care as they were on Kaew side. They even think she deserves harder punishment than this. What does Wan have to say about this? She deny her identity and told Kaew along with others that they got the wrong person. Kaew refused to listen. He sexually assaulted her and chain her down so she doesn’t try to escape.

Will Kaew put his anger to the side and listen to what she has to say? If the girl he kidnapped is not his wife Wan, then who is she? Why does she look so much like his wife Wan?  Is this the case of mistaken identity? You will have to watch it to find out.
