Looks a bit overdramatic. But it hurts seeing Lee Thanat getting shot! I guess this is taking the place of Love…
Yes, this is replacing LBF.
It's the first foray of GMMTV into remaking a foreign drama, and I believe they're co-producing this with Change 2561 (same company behind many of GMM25's dramas and Baifern's current One31 drama with Push). So far that's enough reason for me to check out at least the first few episodes of this.
I hope that some acting awards are in the future for this cast.
Too bad, BL/teen or young adult-oriented series tend to get snubbed in prestigious Thai awards. Last weekend, I was in Bangkok and I was able to watch on TV the Nataraja Awards (said to be the most prestigious entertainment award in Thailand). Almost all the nominations in the drama category were dramas aired on Channel 3, Channel 7, and One 31. "Happy Birthday" and "The Gifted" managed to snag one nomination each, but they both lost.
The only realistic shot that this has for now would be the fan-focused awards shows.
They might have a launch event late this year, the way they did it November last year. I'm crossing my fingers that The Gifted Season 2 is on the works.
Are you referring to AmpGun? They were part of "Room Alone" and "Room Alone 2" (which aired back in 2014 and 2015, respectively), but it's not a full BL series but rather more of an anthology of different college-aged characters. They've got an episode dedicated for them in the first season, then 2 episodes wherein their characters are explored further in the 2nd season.
I've heard from Thai fans that it's not gonna be 2 months but just 2-3 weeks. :)
OK that's great then. I'm just relying on Google translate (and maybe some of their fans are relying on that too haha).
I think Tor's monkhood is already finished. He already has IG photos over the weekend. Really though it'll stretch until August, considering how his stardom has risen coz of Hua Jai Sila.
I'm getting worried. The director for this is also the director of Love Beyond Frontier, and I don't really like…
I think GMMTV is very much guilty of compressing too many characters and arcs in their series.
IMO, they were able to pull off well enough for some series like SOTUS (main couple + 2 potential couples, but they didn't give any closure to Prem-Wad), Room Alone, The Gifted (for the latter 2, they split out episodes to focus on individual character). But for the rest, it was a hodgepodge.
Thanks for sharing this. His parents must be so proud of him. I remember when Tul from Together with Me did the…
I'm a Filipino and a Christian, and I find this practice rather fascinating. To me, it's akin to male Koreans or Singaporeans joining the military for 1-2 years at some point in their young lives.
And timely coz I'm flying to Bangkok this month and I'm half-hoping I can have a glimpse of this Buddhist ceremony during my stay haha.

Anyway, an IG post from Nicky:

What's weird though is that I didn't see Marc in a recent IG post of the entire male cast.
