Hmmm this is kind of surprising too

I agree that a series should ultimately be judged by what appears on screen. Viewers don’t have to care about an actor’s personal friendships.

But I don’t think it’s fair to reduce Dew and Tee’s years of friendship to “just fan service.” They’ve known each other long before this series, and it’s completely natural for friends to publicly support one another.

I also don’t think it’s reasonable to assume Dew sees Tee as someone who “dragged the project down.” None of us know how Dew feels, and based on what we’ve actually seen publicly, he’s consistently spoken positively about working with Tee and has enthusiastically supported him from the beginning.

As for the acting, it’s perfectly fine to think Dew is giving the stronger performance—I actually think he’s been phenomenal as Kay. But that doesn’t automatically mean Tee never deserved the opportunity to lead.

Every actor’s career is built on opportunities. Some shine immediately, while others take longer to find their footing. I’d rather judge Tee’s overall journey than conclude his potential after two episodes of his first lead role.

At the end of the day, I think both actors want the same thing: for Mr. Kill to succeed. Supporting one another doesn’t take away from the art—it simply reflects the kind of professionalism and friendship they’ve shown for years.

I don’t think anyone is asking viewers to ignore the acting or judge the series based on friendship alone. The work on screen should absolutely stand on its own.

What I find unfair is repeatedly questioning why Tee was cast as a lead after only two episodes, as if an actor has no room to develop once filming begins.

Every lead actor was once entrusted with a first opportunity. If casting decisions were based only on already having a perfect leading performance, no new lead would ever emerge.

It’s perfectly reasonable to prefer Dew’s performance—I think he’s been exceptional as Kay too. But praising one actor doesn’t require dismissing another’s potential.

Phat is written as a restrained, by-the-book inspector. Some viewers may interpret that restraint differently, and that’s part of subjective criticism. We’re also only at Episode 2, with much of his character arc still ahead.

I’ll judge the complete performance once the story is finished, not after the opening chapters.

I actually agree with one thing: viewers aren’t obligated to care about actors’ real-life friendships. The performance on screen should always come first.

Where I disagree is the conclusion that an actor should never be given a lead role unless they’ve already proven themselves as one. At some point, every lead actor had their first lead.

Someone has to believe in them before they have a resume full of leading performances.

Dew himself has grown tremendously since F4 Thailand, and that’s because he was given opportunities to keep developing. Why shouldn’t Tee be afforded that same chance?

It’s only Episode 2. By all means critique the performance—that’s part of discussing a series—but writing off an actor’s potential this early feels unnecessarily definitive.

As for the friendship, I don’t see it as a reason he was cast. I simply think it’s nice to see colleagues genuinely support each other’s growth. That doesn’t replace good acting, but it certainly doesn’t diminish the art either.

I think we should be careful not to confuse “this performance isn’t for me” with “this actor has no potential.”

Those are two very different statements.

Dew didn’t become the actor he is today overnight, and I doubt he’d want people denying someone else the same room to grow that he was given. One of the nicest things about this project is seeing him genuinely support Tee, both on and off screen.

Constructive criticism is fair. Declaring someone’s career over after two episodes of their first lead role isn’t.

I’ll keep cheering for both of them. Dew is delivering an outstanding performance, and I hope Tee continues to gain confidence and grow with every episode.

Let’s go 💪😤🥹

One of my favorite things about following actors is getting to witness their growth.

Dew is a great example of that. From F4 Thailand to where he is today, every project has added another layer to his craft. Watching him as Kay in Mr. Kill, it’s hard not to appreciate just how much he has matured as an actor.

Now Tee is beginning that same journey with his first lead role. Every established actor was once in this position—learning, experimenting, making discoveries, and growing with each performance. That’s part of what makes following an actor’s career so rewarding.

Beyond their performances, what makes this project even more special is the friendship between Dew and Tee. You can genuinely feel the mutual respect and support they have for each other. Seeing Dew proudly cheer Tee on during the Episode 1 screening was such a wholesome moment, and I think that encouragement carries over into their work on screen.

Rather than comparing them, I hope viewers allow each of them to shine in their own way. Dew brings experience and confidence to Kay, while Tee brings sincerity and heart to Phat. Together, they create a partnership that feels authentic and enjoyable to watch.

Here’s to watching them continue to grow—both individually and together. ❤️

😂😂😂

You are probably referring to Juno. He does have a bit of resemblance to Keng.

K.I.A = L

😭 plus monthly amortization, utilities, and subscription to different Bullshit streaming platforms. I just had my one on one with my boss earlier and told him to retain me, please do not be the Great Regional Guy from above. 🥹 i’m screaming 😭

No one can win against the Great One Above 😌☝️
Remember, we are nowhere near his impressive career trajectories.

OK the Great Regional Manager 🙌

Now bragging about position titles. It still doesnt make you a better person.

The fact that Nani said to Sky that we’d nail this one in pre-production was a reflection of how determined he was to do well in this series and here you are invalidating that just because you are trying to be an edgy critic for what?
You are the deadweight in the entire fandom of Ohm because of your toxic behavior. I bet you havent watched all the projects of Sky. Same with Nani, You probably just watched the BS F4 and got stuck there?
Stay in your lane. 😏 a$$h0l€

A person like you exists, reason I dont want Sky nor Nani to be in that genre.
This is Nani’s best role and we see how he developed.
Unlike you who dont seem to have any character development.
You just cant accept that the others pointed out how bitter you are.
