Beautiful Thailand in the past age was the plot in the film.Western countries intended to invade the world and some countries attempted to accept western culture in 19C. The King of Thailand also tried to learn it and let the nation know it. In the film, there was a dance which was combined beautiful traditional Thai way with a western story. I could see the wonderful relationship between Thai people and a female English teacher in the film. This is a good musical film.
