We're off to a great start in 2017 in Lakornland, when one of the most anticipated lakorns finally started airing on January 23, Kleun Cheewit starring Mark Prin and Yaya Urassaya. What other lakorns are on the horizon in 2017? Well, that's always up in the air somewhat, as few lakorns get fixed dates until right before they air, but we'll take a look at some of the lakorns we should see this year.
You can find part one of 2016 in Lakornland here, and 2016 Lakorns Subbed and Recommended (Part Two) here. Want to take a look back at 2015 lakorns from last year's end of the year posts? Then check out parts one (subbed lakorns recommendations), two (lakorn news and trends), three (polls) and four (look ahead to 2016 lakorns).
2017 Lakorns - Excited, Potential, MAYBE?, Blergh! - This is just my opinion, no one else's, but I wanted to give some input on the upcoming 2017 lakorn season. This list is by no means complete, since lakorn dates are almost always up in the air anyway, (sometimes lakorns will come out years after being filmed, yet other lakorns are filmed and aired at the same time!) so I just wanted to highlight some of the ones that caught my attention.
Lakorn Remakes of Asian Dramas - what to expect in 2017. Excited, Potential, MAYBE?, Blergh!
Korean (and any other outside Thailand) Remakes - Last year, we had Sorry I Love You, and (not a Korean remake) City of Light: The O.C. Thailand, the year before that Kiss Me, Gossip Girl, Ugly Betty remakes. This year, more! I talked about it in more detail in this post, but in brief:
Series - In 2016, there was a lot of series, most of them teenage or college love stories, but there were also several other series like the Jao Wayha series about men in the military and their lives and loves. I'm sure there'll be other ones that'll pop up too.
The Cupids Series - Eight lakorns based on a series of books about love (see here for more info on each lakorn). Starting in March maybe? Big names here like Ken T. Yeah, I'm kinda excited. Excited
Paragit Ruk The Series - 4 part series of pra'eks who are in the military. MAYBE?
1. Niew Hua Jai Sood Glai Puen
2: Ratchanawee Tee Ruk
3: Yeut Fah Ha Pigat Ruk
4: Meu Brap Jao Hua Jai
Plerng Kritsana The Series: Lai Hong (A Trait of Swan), Peek Thong (A Golden Wings) and Pah Kammathep (Cupid Jungle) More info here. Teaser Potential
