Sexy Bodyguards FTW

I am in the middle of ep 3 of the Thai lakorn Leave the Last Light at Horizon and it continues to be so very entertaining!
* Clearly knowing what their audience wants, the amount of shirtlessness in this drama is truly praiseworthy. I was especially fond of the completely gratuitous flashback of bodyguard's to his and his ex's sexytimes. I approve.
* The amount of make-up on the heroine is astounding. I had less make-up on my wedding day than she does when getting out of bed. But then this seems to be a lakorn norm - I remember watching Defendant of Love and the heroine was on some remote island and chained in a hut but somehow her captor seems to have allowed her an industrial-strength make-up kit.
* I am totally enjoying the OTP dynamic which consists of "OMG, he is SO annoying! Nobody has ever bossed me around before! Where is the grovelling?" and "She is making my job impossible by being so spoiled but oh, she is totally hot!"
* Heroine is kinda bratty (to be fair, she doesn't know about instability in her country) but for some reason I like her anyway. Hero makes me space out staring at him (I am supposed to believe that his ex ditched him because he didn't have enough $$$? I mean, is there someone golddigger enough for this in the world? Unless she was blind).
* As of ep 3, we had an absolutely awesome foot massage scene - she twisted her ankle and he is trying to massage feeling back into it or something. Whatever the reason I was totally swooning - it was totally foot-fetishy-sexy thing.
In conclusion have another MV, this time with some h/c.
