GL Drama Lovers Club

It looks like the Siamsi Studio GL was probably Reverse with Me by Zezeho. The MDL page up for it is now up!! Just in case you're someone like me who's obsessed with adding the new titles to my Plan To Watch list ASAP lmao

Ooh thank you so much - added just now! <3 I actually saw a casting call here on Twitter about it so yes! https://twitter.com/SiamsiStudio/status/1746067033475707169

Excited doesn't even begin to explain how I feel every time I come here and see the wonderful news you all update here with! <3

Ooh! Thanks for vetting it and providing links :D

Ahh I'm glad to hear that it makes you feel like that, I love checking out all of the production updates but sometimes I feel like I'm shouting into a void here.... almost as much as in the unspecified feeds tab lol. 

 I really hate that they don't even have a react button or something here, any way to be able to tell if anyone's seen it (besides a reply post).

No worries! And I can see how a reacting feature would be great for when I quickly skim the club posts on the go then forget to reply so I can at least acknowledge them!

Photos from author's Twitter post: @nalan_lek ! Definitely filming **something!!!**

The novel's cover - you can buy the Thai novel here! Originally saw the cover from this Tumblr post!

I don't believe there were any more links, but fortunately they were saved on my clipboard! I'd love it if Nalan's novels were translated and/or adapted because I was able to see so many positive comments when I translated the Thai!

OMG the cover looked awesome!! I'm so here for darker GLs!

that would be really helpful!! but for now, please know that i constantly check the club posts, even when i don't have the time to respond!! i always see it and add a symbolic heart reaction

Like Mermy, i also always read posts in here even if i dont have the social energy to respond.

i feel like productions companies are misunderstanding the reason why GAP was so successful. Like is wasn't because of the story they were adapting, it was because of FreenBecky's chemistry. Like I'm begging them to realizes it has nothing to do with the author's work. We can stop adapting her novel's now. 

i WILL be sat for Pluto, but that's because Namtan and FIlm gave us insane chemistry in those 3 minutes and 12 seconds. which again just shows its about chemistry, not her stories.

I AGREE 100%!!! it's definitely much more about the actresses making the audience believe in the romance than the plot itself. Gap had a pretty basic premise, Freenbecky turned it into gold, as NamtanFilm will do as well. But WE CAN MOVE ON!!! Chao Planoy's stories are nothing special, and we definitely don't need a romance between a teenager and a grown woman

Plus, from my browsing Thai reactions to Chao Planoy’s works, it seems like she’s the Mame of GLs. Or pretty close. Her novels are problematic, which means that if these companies dont want to produce a problematic romance, theyd have to edit the story quite a bit. It would be easier to go with a different author.

and like, if they're gonna change the story for blank, why buy the rights to the novel and give money to the author at all?? why not just adapt a different story?? they're just encouraging her to write more stories like this

and in the poster they released, the younger main character is wearing a school uniform... honestly, who thought this was a good idea??
