First Love (A Little Thing Called Love) -- (2010)

Wednesday, 19 March 2014


Khun Nam, a girl with a mediocre look, in her first year in M.1 (first grade in junior high) fell in love with her senior in M.4 (first grade in senior high), Khun Shone, the most popular boy in school. By all means Nam did everything in order to see or speak with Shone. Shone is an animal lover and a very caring person. Nam's father is an assistant chef in New York and when Nam's uncle (Chang) came to their house to deliver the news that if Nam or her sister Pang got the first rank in class, then she would go to America. Nam was very serious to be able to go to America because she realized she was not able to reach first rank.

Nam's best friends Cheer, Gei, and Nim help her to be able to get Shone, by way of using the book "9 Recipes of Love" and "Ways to Make Senior Like You". Nam said, the book does not make sense and choose to learn, but secretly Nam did what the book said.


When the sweltering day, Nam, Cheer, Gei, and Nim were waiting in line to buy drinks, and suddenly two basketball players, Maew and Ping, immediately came and broke through in a way that pushing those girls to fall. Shone saw them and immediately bought four drinks for Nam, Cheer, Gei, and Nim. When Shone was being in school's arena, suddenly those two basketball players had Shone a hit. The news known by Nam as Gei and Nim told her. Four of them straight back to the arena, and realized Shone, Maew, and Ping were gone, and Nam took the button that fell (Nam thought the buttons was Shone's belonging).

Whenever Nam wanted to get close to Shone, there was only a girl named Faye interrupting her. Such as when Nam wanted to give Shone an ice cream which because they forgot Thailand is a tropical country, the ice cream melted, Faye took that chance to give her mango cake to Shone. And when Nam thought she would be able to go home together with Shone, Faye pretended to be sprained so she could grab the chance right in front of Nam's face.

It's time to choose the after-school activities. Because the traditional dance club only opened to the beautiful girls, Nam and her girls joined the drama club where Teacher Inn, their homeroom who always used naff tricks to distract handsome male teacher, as the instructor and the director at once. Her three girls with the help of a senior girl, Pin, who was Shone's close friend, tried to beautify Nam who got the main role as a Snow White. When practising their drama, the student as the Prince role didn't come and Teacher Inn asked Shone to replace him in a part of kissing scene. Nam who thought it was only a hallucination, pushed Shone to almost fall. In the dressing room, Nam found a little bitten apple that she thought it was from Koy, the real prince player.


In one parade, headmaster tasked Teacher Inn to find a girl that would be the drum band majorette or if not, he would ask Teacher Orn (Teacher Inn's rival in love) to do that. Teacher Inn said she had found that girl although the truth was not. That's why she then lured Nam which ended by Teacher Inn begged her to be the drum band major. Willy-nilly Nam agreed and tried her best to be a good majorette. 


With the help of her three best friends, Nam could show a good performance as well as a brand new pretty face looking and whiter skin. Immediately she became popular and got so many valentine gifts included from one transferred male student who was also Shone's best friend since childhood, Top, who fell in love with her. Sadly she got nothing from someone she was waiting for the most.


Finally Shone came with roses in his hands but he said it was from Top. Nam was sad and when she found a letter from someone telling her to meet up in the third floor. Nam followed the letter's instruction and there she met Shone up the stairs. She thought the letter was from him but at that time Top came to her, confessed his heart to Nam.

Nam had been accepted in Shone's gang and it made her three best friends thought she had changed. Not to mention when Nam preferred to join Shone and gang's picnic nearby a river instead of coming to celebrate Cheer's birthday. In a birthday party of one of Shone's friend, Top talked about his deal with Shone to not love the same girl which shocked her.

Nam realized her gang had avoided her. She cried and apologized. Cheer, Gei, and Nim then advised Nam to use Thai's way to get a boy's love: just confess it. Nam told the honesty that she never like Top and in the graduation day, Nam confessed her love to Shone. But she found Pin's name in Shone's uniform. Nam asked how long and Shone replied it had been one week for him and Pin. Nam cried but told she was okay.


At home, Shone opened his photo album and the flashback appeared. It turned out things had been going in Nam's mind were very different with the reality. Such as Shone kept the melted ice cream, Shone thought Nam was a very beautiful Snow White though he said there was no different in the before-after of Nam's make-up and the little bitten apple was from Shone. Shone planted the white roses by himself and because of being too nervous, he told the flowers were from his friend. Shone snapped so many pictures when Nam being a majorette and when Top declared his love, Shone got heartbreake. He put the photo album in front of Nam's house, because the next day Shone had to go to Bangkok to snatch his dream to be a football player. While Nam who got the first rank also would go to the States to live with her father.

9 years later, Nam who had been a famous designer met Shone who had been a soccer player and photographer in a talk show. Nam asked if Shone had married and he answered no. Because he had been waiting someone to back from USA.
