Does anyone know how the talent thing work in the industry? Are they contracted to a company and the company chose…
Here is what I know about the entertainment industry.
The US have talent agencies and have contracts with different actors/actress. A producer normally ask a talent agency to provide a talent to act for a film/series. If both sides agree, they enter into a contract for the # of movies/seasons of a series they will be tied to.
Others have individual managers to manages their talent's projects. Instead of a talent agency, a manager will be approached.
In Thailand, I know there are two big production companies are GMMTV and Nadao Bangkok, both have exclusive actors and actresses to act if the prod company wants them to appear in a certain movie/series. They, however, can be requested to do a movie/series that is not being produced by their employer. Case in point, Ohm Pawat did the movie "Dew the movie" but it wasn't produced by GMMTV, after all, GMMTV focuses on what is shown on TV. Another one is ReminderS, White is being under GMMTV and Captain under Nadao, and yet it was produced by Studio Wabi Sabi.
At any point, a talent agency, manager or whichever entity holds the actor/actress a contract with, ultimately has the final say if they are going to appear in a movie or series.
Just a few of my biased. It would be a dream come true to me if aside the 3, White Nawat, Ohm Pawat, Mix Wanut will appear in a series... That is for GMMTV.
For Nadao, it would be Captain, Jaylerr, Oab, Sky & Tor. Don't care if it is a BL or not, but I haven't seen Tor in a BL so I will take it even it is not BL.
It is not as much as Prof. X-Magneto, but Prof. X-Stryker.
Prof. X wants the mutants to live peacefully with the humans, similar to Pang. He wants the normal students to become on equal footing. Theme: equality.
Jeff Stryker wants to eliminate the mutants and that what Korn wants. Normal, average is enough. Theme: retaining the status quo.
I don't believe Korn is dead. His potential is self healing and Nyx-88 doesn't suppress gifts, it kills the host. Given that Korn can heal himself, then Ms. Darin will keep him as a pawn, after all, he is the leader of the Anti-Gifted, Korn.
Time's death is a classic Dir. Supot playbook. In season 1, he let the Class XV believed that Kor and Mon "left" the program, but he just hide them. So, it is likely that it is the same thing they did to Time. Why hide him? I guess, Dir. Supot have something need to be located to use against the Minister.
Is Claire seeing the bad Punn is surfacing? I think so, but I think she is keeping it to herself, much like when she hid that she knows that Korn was behind the Nyx 88 attack.
I can't really tell Chanon's goal and intention is. Still murky for me to say the least. He is work in the Ministry of Education, so he maybe align with the Minister. How? Yes he is working in the IT Department and gave Korn the details of the Nyx 88. But is that the only thing he did? Give and didn't tell Korn to use it? On the other side of things, it is unlikely that Dir. Supot is not keeping tabs on him. He's a threat to him for not to bet monitored, that is why his memory were erased.
I won't be surprised if Chanon is behind to all of this, Angel Beside Me all over again? LOL
What is not trope about the story: it is in reverse.What do I mean by that:
It started with a break up rather than cozying up to each other like majority of BL out there, may it be series or movies as the break up scene happens towards the end. Props for that for dropping it that early.
Then they got "together" (again) in the end.
But the rest is what you may found in almost all other BL stories.
Sometimes the beginning or the destination is not that much of an importance as to the journey.
That will explain why the series is dragging, slow in a way. It is amplifying the emotion each of the main couple. Was it excuted seamlessly? No.
Case in point, when they are in "The Cabins". Yes, it took how many episodes just to make Tep jealous were 2 or 3 will do. And it is so given that Ri is in a plan with Tau to make Tep jealous. Since Episode 1, when Tau saw Tep again, he is like a dog that his furdad arrives home. He can't control himself to near him. In fact, they could have dropped the whole "making Tep jealous" thing entirely and jump to the celebrating their anniversary, it will still have the same outcome and less unnecessary dramas. The only redeeming factor with the getaway is Nin was able to introduced Pang to the Boom Harot gang.
They could have gone the route instead of making Tep jealous, they should have show how they rekindle their interrupted relationship through being sweet and touchy with one another to add value to their relationship.
Clearly Miguel is in the character of Tau, he is connected with it, and that is so obvious. While Genesis, he is not entirely into Tep character, tentative if I may say so. Sometime he is connected, several times disconnected. There are a handful scene that he thinks too much rather feel things through.
And among the supporting characters, Nics/Nicole/Nix is the most relevant to the main couple. She is the reason why Tau and Tep reconnected. Nics is the first person that Tau confessed to about his feelings toward Tep. Nicole is the one that told the rest of the group what is the real score between Tau and Tep.
Step back for a while try to imagine, take away from the picture Bianca and Ronin. The story will still stay the same, right? In fact, it was Tau and Tep that became a support for Ronin which should have been the other way around. But I still like his character, though is it was of a cute face and talent. And there are numerous scenes were Bianca is just over-acting.
Just when you thought that the cutest thing you will see in Episode 3 is the eavesdropping guy.Then come long…
It is really a bad time to have a work when most of this series aired at night and you're working too.
I have so many on my plates right now: - In Between - The Gifted Graduation - A Chance to Love - My Gear and Your Gown - I'm Tee, Me Too - My Extra Ordinary
I have yet to start to watch: - Quaranthings - My Day - Oxygen the series
And Nov 6 is fast approaching for TharnType 2! Oct 22 for "I Told Sunset About You", this is one of the most I anticipated as I think this is Nadao's first ever full blown BL. Not to mention western sci-fi series about to air, one starting next week and the other on Oct 30!
Just when you thought that the cutest thing you will see in Episode 3 is the eavesdropping guy.Then come long…
Vlad is starting to fall for Karl, as in big time.
When he eavesdropped and Karl said that it is not to them to tell Vlad where he wants to be, the smirk tells it all. He was relieved and glad that Karl is somewhat on his side.
Vlad telling Karl that he will kiss his cheek, it is a sign that Vlad still respect Karl eventhough in the eye of his older sister they are a couple. He still reconizes boundaries and when he feels he is about to cross it, he let the other person know or ask permission. What can I call him? A gentleman, i guess more appropriately, a gentlegay if such word do exist. Another scene where Vlad showed he respect Karl, is when Karl parents did a video call to him. He pretends that he is over at Karl's place because he ran out of coffee, it is a sign that Vlad is respecting for Karl not to be "outed" eventhough I think Vlad can sense Karl that he is "one of us". I think Vlad want Karl to comes out on his own. And going back to the previous episode when they are both at the dining table when Karl couldn't say boyfriend and gay, Vlad is letting him know that there is nothing wrong in being one.
After Vlad's sister left, he could easily shy away from Karl to make his way to his Ex, but he chooses to stay with Karl. To say the least, he forgets his ex when he is with Karl. When you're in that situation, it is a clear sign that someone new is already occupying your mind and soon to be, your heart.
Let's go to the other side of the fence, Karl. Clearly, their argument doing chores is classic one. Well not for a BL story, but more a real life scenario when two people is living under the same roof. I find it cute when Karl is nagging, somehow I couldn't feel annoyed of him because seeing Vlad annoyed is too cute for me to be irritated with any of the two. LOL Vlad is trying so hard not to smack Karl. LOL
Then came Vlad's sister and told Karl why Vlad is like the way he is. At that point, Karl becomes more appreciative and understanding of Vlad. And when Vlad told him that he failed his Japan application, I could see Karl equally sad even Vlad is trying to hide it. And when he give Vlad a copy of the key, that is a sign that Karl still wants Vlad to be near him. Still confuse what he is feeling but definitely he is feeling something already. Why I am able to say that Karl is starting to feel something romantic towards Vlad, when Ate Judit said that he thinks that Vlad is better off to be with their mother. That is Karl way out of the trouble, to get rid of Vlad. But no, he acted and responded like a real boyfriend, and Vlad's sister seems to like what he said. Kudos Karl! "Pogi" points in the eye of Ate Judit.
Noteworthy: the interaction between Ian and Pao, Vlad and Karl respectively, is so natural that as if they know what to say or act right after one said his line. Their interaction is so fluid that you couldn't almost see awkwardness. Yes, there are some awkward scene, but the scene demands for it. The only real awkward scene is when Karl is throwing things to Vlad sleeping on the couch. I guess he is trying to avoid not to hit Vlad's kuku bird. LOL
Just when you thought that the cutest thing you will see in Episode 3 is the eavesdropping guy.
Then come long that Vlad wants is cold. Cute and extremely funny! And when Ate Judit suggested to place it next the ******, no need to what Vlad is holding. HAHAHAHA
So sorry for my randomness but do you happen to have the link for ep 5 of the gifted graduation cause strangely…
If you are using a computer to watch, download Opera browser and it has a built-in VPN. Just change the settings to "Americas". That is what I do. At least it is still through official channel/means.
It's kinda given that Korn is actually the leader of the "Anti-Gifted".
I just remember in season 1 when Korn and Mon was "sequestered" from the group when the two was given a fake cure to the their gifts. It is clear that Director Supot has a hand on that. Now, is it possible that Dir. Supot somehow persuade Korn to be his mole for the Class XV? There was a line from Korn when he told Mon, "you know it's me", or something along that line. Is it a euphemism that the two of them Dir. Supot asked them to be his pawn?
Korn is aware of his gift. He wasn't affected by the sleeping gas he set on in the room. He can definitely cure himself fast, much like Wolverine, that any toxins in his body can be easily removed.
My "I WISH" in my comment regarding the very first episode for Claire: "Claire to read other people thoughts and not hues of colors based on their feelings.", I must say, two down (Korn and Claire). Waiting how Pang, Wave, Punn and Mon's potential progress. ============================== First of all, as for the acting, it is really hard for me to see Gun cozying up to a girl, after all, Off-Gun is a staple GMMTV thing.
When Chimon is angry, I can feel his anger too.
Fiat's angry moments is that you can feel where is coming from. And the good guy turning into a bad is not really new for him. Take Slam Dance and A Gift to the People You Hate as an example. But since his appearance in Grean Fictions up to SOTUS S, he always portrayed this lonely character, a distant from others but well connected with his feelings. Too sad though, he is one of the underrated actor of GMMTV together with Sing.
Sing doesn't really mind if his character make a ridicule of himself, and when he does, he shines! I guess that is a double edge sword for him. That specific "skill"of him makes him outstanding as a support character and he is in that role in countless series already.
Nanon's character development is too slow, but I have this feeling that how much he progressed will be a blast.
The chemistry among the cast is undoubtingly present. After all, 5 of them (Nanon, Chimon, Sing, Claire and Puimek) already appeared in My Dear Loser and they know how one acts and can easily adjust. Given Gun's extensive series, he can adjust easily to his co-star. Fiat's previous series involves different kinds of characters where he played excellently and that speaks his skills. But sometimes, it feels like he is torn between acting and dancing. I guess that could be a reason why GMMTV is not giving him another titular role like Grean Fictions.
I'm wishing GMMTV will take notice of Phuwin and Prim as they are budding outstanding actor/actress.
Does anyone know when the release new episodes? Because so far it seems sporadic, like there is no set schedule.
the newest episode gets released every other week. Episode 14 is set to be aired on Saturday. So, Episode 15 will on th 17th, Episode 16 on the 31st and so on.

- A Chance to Love

To be release:

And I know I am missing 1 or 2... jeez!

What I can tell about Ep 3:
However, is this the first full blown BL series of Nadao? I know there is Great Men Academy, but, it is a body swap after all.
I just hope that this isn't as tragic as in My Ambulance. But I am sensing a roller-coaster emotion ride.
I just remember in season 1 when Korn and Mon was "sequestered" from the group when the two was given a fake cure to the their gifts. It is clear that Director Supot has a hand on that. Now, is it possible that Dir. Supot somehow persuade Korn to be his mole for the Class XV? There was a line from Korn when he told Mon, "you know it's me", or something along that line.

Given Gun's extensive series, he can adjust easily to his co-star. Fiat's previous series involves different kinds of characters where he played excellently and that speaks his skills. But sometimes, it feels like he is torn between acting and dancing. I guess that could be a reason why GMMTV is not giving him another titular role like Grean Fictions.
I'm wishing GMMTV will take notice of Phuwin and Prim as they are budding outstanding actor/actress.
