Phran Nawee

After the battle ends, Nawin and Cherdchai—two close friends and naval cadets—go ashore at Hua Hin beach to relax. However, their friendship is tested when both of them fall in love with the same woman, Wanphen, the daughter of Boonlue, an illegal trader. In the end, Nawin wins Wanphen’s heart and is promoted to a naval officer, receiving his sword of rank, while Cherdchai, heartbroken, fails his exams and must retake them, eventually graduating at a lower rank than Nawin.
But Nawin’s happiness is not complete. Boonlue plans to marry Wanphen off to his business partner, Sia Seng, fearing that Nawin might discover his illegal dealings. He then takes Wanphen away to hide in a coastal village. When Nawin and Cherdchai meet again, despite their past conflict, they join forces to rescue Wanphen from Boonlue and Sia Seng. During the rescue, Nawin is captured by the villains, leading to a climactic confrontation.
