Thai Remake of You Who Came From the Stars casts Nadech Kugimiya and Matt Peranee

Ah, Kim Hubby’s drama, You Who Came From the Stars, gets a Thai Adaptation, securing actor Nadech Kugimiya and Matt Peranee in the leading roles.

Anyway, I checked out the writer behind Man From Another Star and I haven’t watched any of her dramas. Should I be optimistic? (sayyessayyes!!)
