Love the drama, but I don’t understand why in all the series where he has a main role, he always ends up with…
Exactly, like even though i adore skyPrapai's story, it's mostly because of prapai and i havent watched any of the show love sea and yesterday (i skimmed) because of um sky. Like, as an actor i DONT find him good at all. Like, there is just something that i don't feel like watching. I dont like noeul as well but i am willing to watch crazy love moo moo, but definitely not other shows by sky. I really wish prapai's ship is changed which is VERY UNLIKELY, tbh i am not hating or anything but i feel like a lot of thai ships have so much potential but they are just stuck with the same actor. Some have undeniably good chemistry and while skyPrapai do have that as well, it's just my personal bias here. I want thai actors with new pairings as it gives yk more feels
I am in a bind :((( I saw bts of the second couple and really wanna watch something they are in. And with a racer/bike…
Dude trust me, i know people say that skyPrapai's story is sooo red and blah blah but it's not???!! I'm baffled by the amount of people who just throw around extreme words carelessly as if it sums up everything. There is stalking involved but it wasn't that extreme stalking or something, it was more like he was pursuing sky relentlessly even when sky told him not to. Fine, it's a red flag though but prapai's character is THE GREENEST FLAG. THAT MAN IS SO DOWN BAD AND i swear skypai's story is so so so much better than rainphayu, because it has proper emotional development and plot. It was just so good and omg you'll love it sm after watching it. IT IS A BIT DARKER IN THEMES BECAUSE OF SKY'S PAST TRAUMA.
This isn’t the most toxic drama I’ve seen from Thai productions, and that includes the straight dramas too…
Tbh i just completed it rn and i would say that it had its bad moments and all and one ml did the other one dirty if you like think about it deeply, but he regretted it HARD and he was extremely guilty and GROVELED. The story did not ignore all that and did not move on with just one sorry or kiss, there was actual protrayal of regret and guilt. I'd say that you can’t judge this drama by mere comments or reviews and watch it yourself. I did that, even tho i swore not to watch it because of the same reasons.
My Stand-In was a very good drama. A lot of people told me that the male lead was a red flag, that he was a bad person, and that he did terrible things. They used big statements like how he destroyed someone's career and made it sound extremely serious.
As someone who reads reviews before watching a drama, I expected something much worse. The way people described it made it seem like there were heinous actions and extreme wrongdoing. But honestly, that was not my experience at all.
I think you can only truly judge a drama after watching it yourself. You cannot reduce an entire story or character to a keyword like "red flag" and expect that to tell the whole story. Everyone has their own perception. Because of those reviews, I judged this drama heavily and decided I was not going to watch it. Now that I have watched it, I can confidently say that it was actually very good.
One thing I especially appreciated was the groveling. In many dramas, there is little to no groveling at all. Characters make mistakes, say a quick sorry, and move on. They simply kiss and make up, which is a common trope in BL dramas. It is not necessarily a bad thing, but it is rare to see genuine remorse handled well.
Here, the male lead truly suffered for his mistakes. He was sorry, he cried, and he desperately tried to make things right. Yes, he did Joe dirty, but the story never ignored that. The emotional payoff was satisfying because of how much regret and effort went into earning forgiveness.
The pacing was good, the story kept me engaged, and considering it was made by the producers behind Top Form and their company, it turned out to be a solid drama overall.
I would definitely recommend watching it for yourself instead of relying solely on online reviews. Many people dismiss it because of things they have heard about the main character, but I do not think that gives a fair picture of the drama. It has strong emotional moments, good angst, and one of the better portrayals of groveling that I have seen.
You might like My Stand-In, male lead is very possessive, there's lots of angst and jealousy and the plot is very…
Oh! well fine i'll watch it then! Thanks for explaining. Also, do you have some more recs? similar dynamics like this yk not fully fluffy. i've literally watched all the famous ones (the ones mentioned and JackJoker, Heart killers, Bad buddy, reset, ai long nhai, etc)

Yes, i just got to know about double helix and i swear before opening the notifications, i check it out but eh one of the ml is very old-ish 😭 i'm more into younger ones like boss or fort or bright or umm Jin from top form. Special mention of Porsche heheh. nvm, I am thinking about watching MF dramas again, because i don't have anytjing to watch now. Nothing comes close to reset, LITA, top form and some others i've mentioned. If you have some other recs do share pls. I've watched between us and well i did like win's acting in it but the other one was a bit whiny 😭 and i watched the heart killers and AGH I LOVED FADEL AND STYLE like they were just so goood and fun hehehe
You might like My Stand-In, male lead is very possessive, there's lots of angst and jealousy and the plot is very…
tbh yes, do clear something up though, is it fully like with one ml being a bully/toxic the whole series and other being a doormat? I don't like doormats in any series at all whether be it mf or mm
It's like reading my comment, you're just like me =) even our fav couples in the series are the same =) not in…
