Bitter HoneyThe 2025 version has been reinterpreted to be more contemporary, aligning better with today's social context, featuring the timeless 90s heartthrob who has been away from screens for nearly 10 years. “Dome Pakorn Lam” returns to play a tough leading man as “Purim” a mature businessman bearing emotional scars from past love, acting opposite the sweet-faced, tearful heroine “Yiwa Priyakarn Jaikanta.” . . . “Kangsanun” the daughter of the woman who once deeply wounded the hero's heart.
Produced by Chan 25 Co., Ltd. under the supervision of “Daeng Surang Prempreed” who teamed up with the meticulous director “Wut Atsadawut Luangsuntorn” from Phenput Co., Ltd. delivers a new level of intensity with “Bitter Honey” an intensely dramatic classic that has been remade more than six times, each time receiving overwhelming audience acclaim.
When the love of Purim (Dome Pakorn Lam) and Rose (Katriya English) transforms from a sweet rose of love into a rose full of sharp thorns of pain. He has harbored the torment of those thorns for years, cultivating them into the bitter honey of suffering ready to harm his enemies—until he meets Kangsanun (Yiwa Priyakarn) Rose’s daughter. Purim wastes no time wielding the sharp thorns soaked in past bitterness as weapons to seek revenge on the mother and daughter, but he ultimately loses to his own heart—defeated by Kangsanun’s goodness and innocence, the daughter of the woman who left a deep scar on his heart.
Purim Pisnukarn (Poo) is a mature businessman deeply hurt by a past love with “Rose” which nearly ruined his life, turning him into a man who views women as mere toys.
Rose later reenters Purim’s life as a widowed, heavily alcoholic woman struggling so much that she tries to sell Kangsanun, her daughter, to Purim as a wife. Kangsanun comes to live with Purim, although Juangjun (Joy Rinlanee) a middle-aged widow and Purim’s sister-in-law, disapproves, secretly harboring feelings for Purim, her late husband’s younger brother. Kangsanun has no choice but to endure. Over time, Purim realizes Kangsanun is nothing like her mother, and his resentment fades, replaced by love.
Meanwhile, Jane (Peterpan Tatsapon) Juangjun’s only son, also falls in love with Kangsanun. Purim expels the mother and son from his home, intensifying Juangjun’s hatred toward Kangsanun, prompting her to do everything to remove Kangsanun from Purim’s life. Kangsanun hides with relatives in another province. Purim secretly confronts Kangsanun and mistakenly believes she is involved with Karakit, her uncle. At the same time, he meets Saengdao (Pangko Jintanadda) a woman who believes in love and serves as Kangsanun’s aunt. They openly date, but Purim continues to secretly meet Kangsanun, who cannot resist and agrees to be with him discreetly.
When the secret is revealed, everyone is angry with Kangsanun, but Saengdao surprisingly controls her emotions and helps Kangsanun prepare for a wedding that everyone thinks is between Purim and Saengdao. However, the invitation bears Kangsanun’s name, part of a plan for them to pretend to date so Kangsanun can reveal her true feelings. Upon hearing this, Juangjun suffers a fatal heart attack. Purim and Kangsanun then start their life together with genuine love and sincerity.
