The Warp Effect

ねぇ、どっかに置いてきたような
事が一つ二つ浮いているけど
ねぇ、ちゃんと拾っておこう
はじけて忘れてしまう前に

回り出した　あの子と僕の未来が
止まりどっかで　またやり直せたら
回り出した　あの子と僕が被害者
づらでどっかを　また練り歩けたらな

あのね、私あなたに会ったの
夢の中に置いてきたけどね
ねぇ、どうして私が好きなの
一度しか会ったことがないのにね

Moy bueno el Sex Education tailandes
Me gustaria que mas personas vean esta serie no puedo creer que algunos caps no llegaban a 200k de views y que el mas visto haya sido en el que Army y Joe culean igual consider me guilty!!
Lo hot que es Fluke lcdll me gustaria que tenga mas series porque actua re bien y como Army era re atrapante! y aun mas sus interacciones con Alex. also me encanta el trope de tincho que juega al futbol y se enamora de su otro compañero tincho pero que tiene tanta homofobia interiorizada que termina lastimando a todos incluso a el mismo,, igual me parecio re piola que despues de Kat no haya estado con otra mujer, ya no siguio negando su sexualidad post-Joe
Ew me dio un cringe al principio pero termino pareciendome muy lindo y muy hot no se si quiero besarlo o ser el god I love pathetic men con cachetes de ardilla!
Me parecio horrible lo que Alex le hizo a Jean que fue literalmente una vwordacion!! el ptsd que teniaJean me ponia re mal
Todas las actrices eran re bellas y lindas y empoderadas# me gustaria darle un beso a todas xoxo

Algo que no me gusto: el final xd 1° quien esta en pareja con alguien que conocio en secundario despues de 10 años? NADIE 2° el final quiere decir que Alex se perdio todos sus años de juventud y ahora tiene que vivir a partir de tener 28 años? lo hubiesen dejado chiquito o explicado que el tiene recuerdo de esos 10 años vividos

Representation everywhere

Anyone watching this drama will feel represented by at least one of the characters in this series.

This was a really good drama. It had mature topics, and a diverse group of characters. I loved the friendships in the series namely, our three amigos (Alex, Ew and Nim), (Army and Alex), (Kat, Liu and Rose). Really liked the romantic pairings as well. All characters/couples had their own flaws and issues but they end up working on it and eachother towards the end.

Overall, its just an all around feel good drama. I laughed a bunch of times and was emotional as well. Alex's actor did a fantastic job, along with the rest of the cast. The acting was just really natural.

Although there were somethings I didn't agree with in this drama (mainly - Jean's anger towards Alex for, imo, what didn't seem to be his fault, at least not his alone), I still enjoyed it all the same. The tone of the drama is very educative especially in the early episodes but it didn't feel too heavy, I really enjoyed those teaching moments too.

All in all, a very funny, mature and romantic drama with a variety of beautiful couples and a plot that keeps you interested.

Very educative but fun serie with a lot of representation.

I originally wasn't planning on watching this. I mostly watch bl and I'm definitely not a straight guy. I'm never really comfortable with NC scene's and even in Bl I prefer to skip them. I decided to finally give this a try after watching 'Let's talk about Chu' and I have to be honest, I was expecting something familiar. Honestly, I am surprised about this series with Gmmtv. I really regret not watching this earlier!!

Ok a small rant about Gmmtv and my surprise on them making this series. These days (talking 2026) whenever gmmtv makes a new series it's either straight, bromance or gay. In their straight and bromance series there is barely any representation and it irritates me quite a bit. This is also the reason I often refuse to watch their bromance or straight series. This is of course just an opinion and please do not come at me lmao. I don't necessarily find this extremely bothering but should be taken in consideration, the unrealistic Nc scene's and I'm talking zero mentions on STD or protection. And consent... uh yeah barely there. Anyways my point is that Gmmtv rarely shows these kind of things even though it like extremely important.

Let's get through the point of representation first. They really tried to include as much as possible! Lesbians who are trying to get a kid, Nonbinary representation, the gays who are always complicated, the open relationship trans girl x cis guy, the 2 with the most random kinks ever and then the main character. And I didn't even include all the couples. I love the representation so much!! It's not just another 'straight' series about sex but it's actually educative about other type of relationships aswell. "You have to learn about this no matter what your orientation is" this made my day thank you.

At first I was like "I love Nim she is such a girl boss. I love her and Molly!!" but later on in the series I started disliking Molly a lot. I'm talking about the scene where they kissed with Alex. After Alex got into the future, when I saw Nim with Bew I really liked them. Bew genuinely seemed so sweet towards Nim but yeah even that... it all backfired. When I saw how Molly became later on in the series I was like YESS. I already saw chemistry between them and Nim again, but Nim has Bew. I like their ending a lottt and Nim did not deserve that. I loved how Molly is nonbinary and a bit disappointed in the lack of non binary dysphoria but at least they included one scene.

I loved Jo and Army. They had a pretty alright relationship even though they fought a few times. What I liked about them was that both had very reasonable reasons for their actions. Jo was obviously very closeted and I totally get him. He is a soccer coach so what can you expect. I really appreciated the adding of him being a coach and SPECIFICALLY soccer. I don't think I'm the only gay guy but I feel like soccer is one of the least accepting sports out there to play. The audience is especially the biggest problem. Till this day they're still singing homophobic songs in the stadiums. Anyways, I fucking get Jo and I also feel bad for Army at the same time. Army wasn't that closeted and he did seem to want to out his relationship.

Then Rose and Jedi. I didn't really realise Rose was trans at all until episode 10. Rose is fucking stunning and I loved her through the whole show. I was really surprised when I found out that she's a makeup artist and not a small one either like wdym Best Jira (Rose's actress) has done Lisa's make-up from BP?! Anyways, episode 10 really did a lot to me. Imagen getting proposed to and then immediately having transphobic comments... It should be a happy moment fuck them. I loved how everyone stood up for them. Jedi was also super nice in this series and I loved the moment he told Rose he wanted to end their open relationship it was actually so cute and adorable.

I'm trying to write about every couple hahhah. I forgot who but there was a character that got like assaulted, right? Until fucking episode 12 I THOUGHT TONY WAS THE ONE WHO DID IT. I kept hating his face and whatever but then I realised I totally got the wrong guy. Anyways, Joong had a lot of chemistry with multiple people and I quite liked it because I kept wondering who he'd end up with.

Okay.. then See-ew and Liu. They were quite messy to be honest I was kinda forcing myself to be ok with their 'k1nk'. It just felt extremely weird and yeah, pup play isn't exactly the most common thing but I still don't wanna shame See-ew for liking it. Liu having foot k1nk was also a part where I had a side eye. At least they actually included it also being a thing. I actually really like See-ew but when Alex was his older self it kinda felt like the friendship was kinda like... gone. To be honest I feel like his younger self was better friends with See-ew but in the future just Army.

I'm so surprised about Phuwin's role as Ice in this series. I'm quite used to Phuwin playing the softer roles, aside from we are. I kinda like this side of him too. His hair is making me wheeze. I'm not writing this because I'm a Narawin but to my opinion there's like zero chemistry between him and Kim no hate. During the series it just felt like they had completely different goals. Not just the parenting part but just in general.

The girls in this show were such great visuals. The intro feels so incredibly nostalgic. Genuinely couldn't skip the intro because of the adorable clips playing and the song (sweet but naughty) IS SO PEAK. I used to listen to it often without knowing it came from this series. I absolutely loveee the colour pallets they used and the styling is amazing. (Aside from Phuwins hair hahahaha).

I already had a feeling something felt familiar, especially the fights and breakups and everything. Turns out this was directed by Ninew who also directed Only Friends and I have to say it both has the same vibe hahhaha. Ninew as the director and P'aof as the producer?? Such a good combo damn. This is really worth it!

GREAT : A lesson in tolerance and humanity

A modern, daring, and educational series... The Thais know how to innovate ᕦ(ò_óˇ)ᕤ

PLOT: ML, a senior in high school, struggles to keep the promise he made to his deceased mother to remain a virgin until he turns 18. During a very drunken party, he loses his mind, his virginity... and finds himself as an adult, a gynecologist, still in contact with his old friends (some of whom are furious with him). His only clue is a collection of Polaroid photos of his adult friends (apparently, their future selves). He must try to resolve the issues depicted in these photos to solve his own problems and gain the chance to return to the past.

+++ The themes addressed are sensitive: women's rights, consent, abortion, assault, sexual identity (LGBT+), STIs, etc. All forms of sexuality are explored, frankly, but respectfully and without voyeurism.
+++ Kudos to the actors and directors!!
+++ A coherent, intelligent, and powerful story.

### Flaws : There are some flaws, of course, but they are very negligible, given the importance of the message.

=> A stimulating and disturbing, but brilliant series. Kudos to the Thais, it took guts (*´▽`*) (*´▽`*)

Não BL muito a frente de seu tempo e melhor que a maioria dos BL’s

Que série mais gostosinha de assistir!!

The Warp Effect é realmente uma das melhores produções da GMM. A série não é BL em si, mas tem um dos melhores casais BL que já vi e com uma química incrível. Eu simplesmente me apaixonei pelo Army, achei o personagem muito bom, bem humorado, confiante e a história dele com o Joe foi ótima, inclusive por não ter o estereótipo de “top” e “bottom”, claramente melhor que a maioria dos BLs.

Mas não é só esse casal que faz a série ser boa, todos os personagens têm suas tramas e suas histórias são interessantes (umas mais, outras menos, mas todas legais de acompanhar). Meu destaque vai pra como trataram a Rose com naturalidade, até quase o final da série eu nem sabia que ela era trans e eu gostei de ver essa abordagem. Normalmente esses assuntos não são colocados em séries de forma tão natural e eu gostei muito de ver ela lá sendo uma das garotas gostosas e populares. (Também amo o Mark em todos os universos e ele tem química com todo mundo).

Mas o grande destaque da série vai mesmo pro plot da Jean. Acho que trataram realmente de forma muito séria. Ela não ter perdoado o Alex é algo tão realista, pois o peso que ela carregou todos aqueles anos e o mal que ele causou a ela (mesmo que de forma involuntária e que nem seja culpa dele) era algo que não dava pra ser reparado. A única solução era realmente voltar no tempo, pois sem essa opção a melhor coisa que ele poderia fazer era deixar ela em paz. Também foi muito boa a naturalidade com que trataram o aborto e o direito da mulher sobre seu próprio corpo.

Outra coisa que gostei foi de não haver rivalidade entre Kat e Jean. Elas até se tornaram boas amigas e a Kat não caiu no estereótipo daquela personagem chata que briga por homem. Esses entre outros inúmeros aspectos fazem The Warp Effect ser uma série bem à frente de seu tempo, não apenas a nível de Ásia, mas até mesmo no ocidente dificilmente você vai achar uma série que trate esses temas com tanta qualidade e bom humor, pois apesar de temas pesados a série é leve e boa de assistir.

After months (months? sure) of hearing about how good this drama is I finally decided to watch it.

Admittedly it annoys me sometimes when people are right, especially when they go gushy over something that is playing at the same time that something I prefer is playing and they totally ignore my thing, the jerks. That said, well. People were right. This show was great. I really loved it, and I loved all the ways it tried to challenge ideas surrounding sex, identity, kink, etc. Maybe not always entirely successfully, but the attempt was there and honestly, I loved how it seemed to be pointing out hypocrisy towards women in particular (there are several examples of this, but I am thinking particularly of how Jean was treated after the party vs. how Alex was. I love that the show made a point of explicitly stating how messed up the disparate reactions were, and how unfair. I also liked that despite following Alex as he goes on this journey, the show never attempted to pretend that he was the wronged party in that situation. Neither did Alex himself, which was refreshing). I'm not used to that from my shows, full stop.

I'm also just a sucker for a good time travel trope, and it always amuses me when the mostly decent kid travels and wakes up in this body of a huge jerk and then has to work back how the hell they got there. Watching Alex fumble through figuring out how the hell he landed on the career he chose, let alone wtf happened at that party so long ago, was kind of hilarious. I enjoyed the balance of humor and seriousness a lot. It kept the show from ever feeling too heavy.

One thing I have heard over and over and over again about Jojo is that he gets great performances from the cast, performances that feel authentic and real. I have to say that yeah, I get the praise. You know how with some directors you can see their hand in everything they do? Jojo is like that, I think, but his hand is seen in how little he's present in the overall product. It feels like he hands his cast a script, gives them a general idea, and then lets them do their thing and gives them room to explore their characters in an organic way. I'm sure that there is some management happening, that's his job, but mostly these characters feel lived in in a way that strikes me because so often it isn't there. Maybe it's a mix of his directing style and really good casting.

Speaking of casting, this one was excellent. I really liked everyone, but especially New, Fah, and Jan. New played Alex well - he's a character that I think could easily get annoying, but New managed to make him likeable more oft than not. Even when Alex was doing things I knew were stupid, I was more "oh, honey, no" than I was "you're the worst", so that was nice. Fah as Jean was just all around lovely, she played her so well. You could see the bones of the girl she was before everything went wrong in the woman she became, just a little harder, a little less trusting. But she stayed fighting for people because that's just the core of who she is. Her struggle with her desire to let go of what happened vs. her inability to do so was heart wrenching, and yeah, I guessed the big last secret fairly early on but one thing I liked (that I mentioned above) is that she was never ever once treated like she did something wrong. Oh, in show she got it in the teeth, but the show itself never failed to point out exactly how fucked up that was. Also Fah just did a great job and she's very, very pretty. I could watch her forever honestly. And Jan just continues to be a delight in everything I see her in.

After all this praise, I have to say I did find myself a little bit annoyed by the ending. It felt a bit too pat, especially after everything else was handled with such nuance. It was so weird to have Alex wake up and get to have his Scrooge turnaround because it was still Christmas after all. And some of the ways that he took care of things annoyed me, too. He came across as a little too "I know best for you" towards everyone's problems for a 17 year old kid. Which I get, he had all this knowledge from his messed up future under his belt, but I didn't love it. I did love his determination to be a better brother, though (another thing I loved? The fact that he helped Ice pull his head out of his bum w/r/t Kim's abortion choice in the messed up future. The fact that they had one of the male characters say, in no uncertain terms, that it's actually *her* choice and that being supportive means letting her make it, floored me, as did the fact that Ice actually listened and was fully supportive after his initial selfish freak out (and he admitted it was selfish! I couldn't believe it)).

I also felt like it would have been better to have a less entirely happy ending? Which is weird coming from me, since I love happy endings. But I really liked the message that sometimes there are things that you can't fix, some mistakes you can't take back, and then I felt like the show immediately undercut that idea by...letting Alex go back and make everything right. I think I might have appreciated the ending more had Alex stayed in the future after that last encounter with Jean. Then again I don't think *Jean* deserved having to be stuck that way, so there you go. For her sake, I'm happy it went the other way.

Overall I found this extremely enjoyable, and well, I can't say that I will be sad about Jojo's penchant for happy endings if that means that things go the way I want in other dramas. :D

i wish i coul rewatch for the first time

have you ever watched a show that once you finish you feel a void inside and cry cause you know you’ll never find a show that will everr make you feel the same???? well, this show will make you feel exactlyy like that. The warp effect is like a thailandese version of glee BUTTT better and more serious. I loveee the way that they talk about things that happen normaly and are often taken as a taboo topic. It will make you see things in the perspective of both teenagers and adults and you will DEFINITELYYYY identify with at least one of the charavters!!!! It’s honestly sad that people overlook it cause it is not a bl but IM TELLING YALLL its one of the besttt gmmtv’s shows

Ticked off all the boxes for me for a great series

What an underrated gem from GMMTV. The plot in MDL doesn't do justice to this. Never thought a show written and directed by males could be so progressive. This touched up sensitive and undiscussed topics in such a playful way and left with great morals. I not only enjoyed the show but felt great comfort while watching it. Very few shows can make you feel part of it. This did.
It touched topics of sexuality, gender identities, inclusions and diversity. It showed female empowerment and also gave so much knowledge on STDs and STIs. It touched the topic of beauty standards and body shapes and sizes. Also about a very rarely discussed topic of various sexual desires and likes and dislikes of sexual positions. I love how not everyone is involved in a romantic relationship. It celebrates women being single and independent. It showcased the very tough topic of pregnancy and abortion and how the society forces/ expects women to keep the baby abandoning their dream.
Truly a gem. The actors did spectacular job. I love how each and every character got to shine in their own way. Everyone's story mattered and it was all threaded marvelously into the entire polaroid camera thing. It was playful, fun and at the same time ran way too deeper than most dramas ever did. Truly deserved the 10/10.

underrated, fun, educational

I preferred Alex as a doctor, but it was nice to see him realize his childhood dream. Even though he didn’t end up becoming a doctor, I hope he stayed friends with Army. It would be a shame if that friendship was lost. It’s also unfortunate that Army didn’t get the chance to have the child he wanted in this timeline, but being a mother never really felt like Nim's nature. If Army wants to be a father, he still has options—he could adopt or find a surrogate. Honestly, I think they would have made the perfect pair of parents—a gay man and a lesbian—it would be iconic!

That said, the best thing is for them to take their time and not rush into anything, like they did in the previous timeline. This new timeline is definitely an improvement. This GMMTV drama was really insightful about today’s society. I appreciated how they addressed important but often overlooked topics like gender identity, sex education, consent, sexual health, women's rights, relationship abuse, and more.

It’s easily become one of my favorite GMMTV dramas. The story, characters, soundtrack—everything about it is amazing! Definitely one of the best from GMMTV for sure!

mixed feelings

i had mixed feelings about this serie, many people love this show and i can see why.. this show tackled serious matters, it mention many issues and it feel mature not silly which is something that i really loved
but what i didnt like at all is, first im not someone who like comedy, i find some comedy funny but most of the time it doesnt, the other thing is that im not really into the plot of this serie so thats the issue, im not into plots about time travel, lose of memory and you having to figure out what happened which is what this serie is about, so thats why i dont find myself enjoying this, at some point i also started to feel bored, not sure if its because it started to be dragging or only because im not into the plot. def its not my cup of tea
