The Ex-Morning

WE NEED MORE SERIES LIKE THAT

Thats one of the most underrated series gmmtv had made this year. I literally loved it, the plot is interesting, actors have insane chemistry with each other, characters are reasonable and they dont have stupid fights over silly things. If you like thamepo its your turn to watch it its really good!!
P.S I loved the fact how much Tam and Pi actually loved each other and cares for each other the whole season WE NEED MORE OF THEM!!! GIVE SINGTO AND KRIS MORE DRAMAS
The only thing i didnt like is the fact that gmmtv keep on giving us amazing yuri ghostships while theyre real gl dramas in my opinion sucks…. the relationship between yong’s sister and his ex have so much potential im waiting for undoomed yuri!!

SINGTOKRIST COME BACK ???

YALLLLLLLLLL 😭😭😭

THIS SERIES???? OH THIS SERIES WAS NOT JUST A SERIES. THIS WAS A WELCOME BACK CEREMONY, A HOMECOMING, A CULTURAL RESET, A RELIGIOUS EXPERIENCE FOR SINGTOKRIST. AND I WAS FRONT ROW SCREAMING.

LIKE HELLO???? MY PERAYA HEART??? RESURRECTED. REVIVED. REBORN. ❤️

This show is basically comfort food for Peraya OG fans which, unfortunately and proudly, IS ME. I swear the entire storyline lowkey mirrors SingtoKrist’s real life dynamic and I’m sitting here like…

HELLO??? ARE WE WATCHING FICTION OR A DOCUMENTARY??

Because excuse me??? They didn’t work together for like WHAT, SIX YEARS??? Then Singto came back to GMMTV and suddenly Krist is glowing like a man who just got his husband back from war and BOOM they get their own series again???

GIRL.

Also let me talk about the TRAUMA I went through when the trailer dropped for The Ex Morning. Because I remember new BL fans in the comments going like:

“Where is my JimmySea series?”
“Why SingtoKrist again?”
“Are they still relevant?”

EXCUSE ME????

BOY IF YOU DON’T SIT DOWN WITH YOUR LITTLE BABY BL DEGREE FROM TIKTOK UNIVERSITY—

SINGTOKRIST LITERALLY CARRIED GMMTV ON THEIR BACK LIKE TWO SINGLE MOTHERS WORKING DOUBLE SHIFTS DURING SOTUS ERA.

If they didn’t blow up the industry back then, HALF OF YOUR FAVES WOULD NOT EVEN EXIST. So yes babes. Show some respect to your BL ancestors.

Anyway… let’s calm down before my blood pressure spikes and let’s review this thing properly.

And yes. This review is biased.
EXTREMELY biased.
If you don’t like it…

Ciao. 💅

___________________________________________________________

a) Plot

Okay quick synopsis before I start screaming again. Phi is this famous weather forecast prince. On camera he’s charming, charismatic, professional, everyone loves him blah blah blah. But OFF camera???

Oh honey…

That man is an entitled, dramatic, slightly insufferable manchild.

Harsh? Maybe.
But am I wrong? Absolutely not.

So one day during a live broadcast, this rookie journalist Tae starts throwing off-script questions at him. Phi is already annoyed, his patience is hanging by a thread, and suddenly— BOOM. He throws coffee in Tae’s face. LIVE. ON. CAMERA. And I’m sitting there like, "NOOOOO OH U FUCKED UP". Anyway his career immediately goes poof 💨CANCELLED. FINISHED. GOODBYE WEATHER PRINCE.

So the company decides the best way to fix his image is to produce a new show for him. Cool idea. Great strategy. Love that. But the producer they hired to manage the project is... Tawan. His ex. The same ex who disappeared from his life FOUR YEARS AGO WITHOUT ANY EXPLANATION. So when Phi finds out, he basically has a mini emotional nuclear meltdown and honestly? VALID. Because if my ex who ghosted me suddenly appeared at my workplace like “Hi I’m your boss now” I would also start screaming.

So the whole series is basically their journey of rebuilding their relationship while fixing Phi’s career and confronting all the unresolved feelings they never dealt with. Now let’s talk about the actual plot. I genuinely thought this show would be draggy. Like you know those BLs where nothing happens for three episodes except intense eye contact and slow walking scenes? But surprisingly?? THE PLOT WAS ACTUALLY GOOD??? There are proper developments, conflicts that make sense, and the pacing for a 10 episode series is actually pretty steady. Yes there are some filler-ish scenes. Like the multiple moments where Phi randomly sings while Tawan reminisces about their old relationship and I’m just sitting there like "OH MY GOD PLEASE STOP SINGING I AM BEGGING YOU." I literally hit 2x speed during those scenes. Sorry. Not sorry.

BUT the plot twist about why Tawan left Phi?? OH BABY. When the reveal happened I was like "WAIT— OH???? OH?????? THAT’S WHY?????" It’s not super dramatic but it’s sweet enough to make you gasp and go “oh damn okay that makes sense.” Also the cinematography??? HELLO??? There’s this one scene where Phi is heating rice over a charcoal stove and waiting for the fire to light up. Then Tawan comes and they talk about Yong choosing their demo and making a bet about who wins. When Tawan says “deal” and pours oil into the fire and the flames suddenly burst up.... BABY. THE FIRE WAS NOT THE ONLY THING HEATING UP.

Because Singto looked so damn charming in that scene I literally choked. Like excuse me??? WHY IS MY HEART BEATING LIKE THIS??? WHY AM I FEELING THINGS??? Sir you cannot just stand there looking that good. It awakened something inside me and I’m not going to elaborate further. Also the SOTUS reference during their wedding ceremony??? I SCREAMED SO LOUD MY NEIGHBOURS PROBABLY THINK I SAW A GHOST. And can we talk about how the series actually explained same-sex marriage in Thailand???

I LOVED THAT.

They showed how the legal process works and how Thai wedding ceremonies are performed and honestly it felt so refreshing to see that represented in a BL series. Thank you GMMTV for letting SingtoKrist be the couple that explains it.

My Peraya heart is full. 🥹

___________________________________________________________

b) Characters

> Phi played by Krist Perawat

Oh Krist.

MY FORMER NUMBER ONE BIAS.

And honestly after watching this series I understand exactly why he used to hold that position. This man CAN ACT. Like I’m not exaggerating when I say his acting improved A LOT since SOTUS. Back then he was good, but now he’s so natural on camera that it feels like we’re just watching someone’s real life. The camera basically disappears. It’s like we’re the third wheel spying on his life.

And Phi as a character? UNSTABLE.

Emotionally unstable. Mentally unstable. Romantically unstable.

This man folds faster than a lawn chair every time Tawan gets close to him. And honestly??? RELATABLE. Because tell me WHY Tawan is constantly seducing him.

Loose shirts exposing his chest.
Leaning close to his face.
Casually changing his shoes.

EXCUSE ME???

SIR YOU ARE NOT HELPING HIS SELF CONTROL.

If I were Phi I would’ve folded in episode two. But I love the character development he gets later in the series. He starts as this selfish hot-tempered guy but eventually becomes someone who prioritizes the people he loves. Growth. We love to see it.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

> Tawan played by Singto Prachaya

Ah yes. THE MAN. THE MYTH. THE VOICE OF HONEY ITSELF. Singto’s voice in this series is so soft and gentle that I genuinely had a moment where I thought: “Wait… when have I ever heard him raise his voice before?” Answer: NEVER. This man speaks like he’s narrating an ASMR audiobook. And acting wise? No problems there. I’ve known since day one that Singto can act. Every scene feels natural, no awkwardness, no stiffness.

Now let’s talk about Tawan. At first he shows up looking cool, sharp, professional, very “I’m here to work.” But by the end of the series he becomes this goofy man who is ready to sulk the moment Phi ignores him. And honestly? I’m okay with it. Because for most of the show Tawan is ridiculously cunning and seductive. This man was flirting in broad daylight. Not subtle. Not discreet. FULL ATTACK MODE. My only complaint is that his sharp, calculating personality slowly fades near the end of the series. That could’ve been explored more.

Missed opportunity.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

> Kaoki played by Jamie Juthapich

Okay let me be honest. I usually don’t get very invested in GMMTV GL characters because the dynamic is always the same:
cold top × sunshine bottom.

Jamie isn’t really an exception here. This is the first time I noticed her in a bigger supporting role and she did fine, but the character itself was just… mid. Kaoki is supposed to have tons of connections because she’s a famous camerawoman, but the show barely demonstrates it. The only time we really see her influence is when she posts a tweet supporting Phi. Other than that the character just exists.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

> Nudee played by Earn Preeyaphat

Earn still has room to improve. Her acting isn’t bad but there’s still a bit of awkwardness in her eyes and voice sometimes. Nothing unbearable though. Nudee as a character is basically Phi’s support system. She runs his fanbase, does research, helps with investigations, and occasionally forgets things because apparently every bubbly side character must also be slightly scatterbrained. But I actually liked her energy and the little connection she had with Yong. Cute siblings dynamic.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

> Tae played by Aou Thanaboon

BOY. Let me tell you something. I love Aou. He’s my bias. But while watching this show I completely forgot about that because THIS MAN WAS GETTING ON MY NERVES. Acting wise he’s great, no issues there. But Tae as a character???

OH MY GOD.

I wanted to push him away from Phi every time he appeared on screen. The annoying thing is he wasn’t annoying ENOUGH. Like imagine if he intentionally told the cameraman to go live before Phi threw the coffee.

THE DRAMA.
THE CHAOS.
THE SPICE WE DESERVED.

But no. His villain era was like… mild salsa. Not spicy enough.

___________________________________________________________

c) Steamy scenes

BOYYYYYYYY. GMMTV SAID “LET’S RAISE THE TEMPERATURE.” There are at least five steamy scenes in this show and I’m not complaining. For some reason they are OBSESSED with bathroom and bathtub scenes but honestly? Do your thing kings. The kissing scenes were phenomenal. At first I thought they could be more hungry but then I suddenly remembered the lip biting kiss scene and I immediately shut my mouth.

NEVER MIND.

COMPLAINT RETRACTED.

WE ARE FED.

___________________________________________________________

d) OST

Don’t ask me anything. I remember none of the songs.

Zero.

My brain was too busy processing SingtoKrist chemistry.

___________________________________________________________

e) Overall

Listen. This is a good series. Call me biased all you want, I truly do not care. This show healed my inner Peraya and watching SingtoKrist together again felt like seeing your divorced parents fall in love again. My first BL heartbreak couple came back together. So please tell me again that this series isn’t based on them. Because the parallels are SUSPICIOUS.

Anyway I rarely rewatch series unless they are extremely good. And for this one… I still probably won’t rewatch it. I’m sorry.

But that doesn’t change the fact that it was fun as hell to watch.

Final score? 10/10.

And yes.

I said what I said. 🫦

They’re back, and my serotonin levels are thriving!

Okay listen, The Ex-Morning had me smiling, screaming, pausing to yell into the void, and then smashing the play button like nothing happened. Seeing Krist and Singto together again? ICONIC. I’ve missed this duo so much, true OG status. Their chemistry? Still criminally good. No one’s doing it like them. Period.
Now the plot? HELLO, originality! We’ve done enemies to lovers, friends to lovers, exes to enemies, but exes to co-workers? That’s fresh. That’s chaotic. That’s peak millennial mess. And I’m living for it. It gives you that weird fluttery feeling mixed with secondhand embarrassment and longing… like drinking iced coffee on an empty stomach. Unstable, but addictive.
BUT, and yes, there’s a “but” there were moments I wanted to yeet my screen. That noble idiot trope needs to go extinct. Like babe, just COMMUNICATE. A lot of the pain could’ve been avoided if certain characters used their words instead of bottling everything up like emotionally repressed soda cans. 🙃
Also, Tam’s mom? Whew. Started as a villain, lowkey redeemed herself, but still had me clenching my jaw. And Tam not speaking up when his boo was getting insulted?? I wanted to pause the episode and give him a 3-hour Ted Talk on boundaries and respect.
That said… Episode 8 had me giggling and kicking my feet. The “we’re a secret” couple energy while literally climbing all over each other in public? BE SERIOUS. 💀 Everyone saw it. Rita saw it. Nudee and Kaoki lowkey saw it too. Stealth level: zero. But cuteness level: 10000%.
Aou’s character was trash, not gonna lie. But shoutout to Aou himself for acting his butt off because I fully believed he was a walking red flag.
Last thing: Young and Kaoki… please. They still look at each other like a Lana Del Rey song. I’m begging the writers to do the right thing.

TLDR: It’s a ride. A fun, messy, lovable ride with familiar faces and fresh chaos. Support it. Watch it. Yell about it. It deserves way more hype than it’s getting. 💕👀

The Last Two Episodes Kind of Ruined the Rest...

I was so hyped for this show, and on the whole I really loved it. The first eight episodes were great—the story was fun, charming, and KristSingto's chemistry was just as good as nine years previous. I had a blast watching it, and then the show kind of....wrapped up two episodes early. All of the main plot points were tied in a nice little bow—our couple is happily together, the villain of the show has been deposed, all is well. And yet, there were still two episodes left.

And everything went off the rails. Suddenly we almost get a genre shift from exes-to-lovers romcom to a crime drama? It made no sense and was straight out of left field, and it being included in the series kind of ruined the rest of it for me. Now, when I look back on this show all I'm going to think about is how bizarre the last episodes were.

It's a shame, because otherwise this show had so much going for it! The plot was good, it was funny, I loved the side characters (Jaime, my beloved, we need to get you more roles!!). If they had just cut the show after eight episodes, this would be a 9/10 and on my favorites list. But, alas, here we are.

Peraya Nation, how are we? I missed Krist and Singto so much that seeing them together again felt like being reunited with old friends. Honestly, I never thought I’d get to watch them in their full glory again—but here we are. And my god, it was beautiful.

Krist and Singto are not just another BL pairing—they are the pioneers of the genre for so many of us. They helped shape the BL landscape, and without them, I’m certain half of us wouldn’t even be here as devoted fans (or fujoshis). Their on-screen presence is magnetic, their chemistry timeless.

The story in The Ex Morning was solid and engaging, giving just the right amount of romance, nostalgia, and emotional pull. It didn’t feel like a forced reunion—it felt like a natural continuation of what made them special in the first place.

I truly enjoyed every second of it. For long-time BL fans, this was more than just a drama—it was a heartfelt reminder of where it all began.

a nice guy turned evil by society

This was so fantastic, my lord. I missed them so much, and I would give my life for them. I would give it a 9 out of 10. You guys know the drill: what I liked, what I didn't, and then an overview. LET'S HIT IT TO THE BEAT, BABY.

What I liked. It's KristSingto. Sotus was my first Thai drama, so I have a heavy bias towards them and any show they are in. And I met them as well, so I am even more fucking biased, but swear. I enjoyed Phi's character. I don't know, I was really into it, and just seeing Krist play an explosive character was so fun. I also liked that he wasn't over his ex and even before Tam showed up, he was still thinking about him, and usually that's not great, but in the context of this show, it was fantastic. The storyline. I think the first episode is incredibly hard to get through, and I will talk about that later, but it truly gets so fucking good. I was rewatching shit before I even finished it lmao. I liked the "villains." They were really fun, and I think it's because I have never seen those two play characters like this; I ate it all the way up. They were well written at the start, and then towards the end they faded out, but they were kind of like the "its all in your head" villains, and it was great. The sex scenes MY FUCKING LORD. HOW DO WE HAVE THAT MUCH CHEMISTRY AFTER TEN FUCKING YEARSSS? My lord. Okay, so of course, both Krist and Singto have different acting skills than they did back in the day, and the two of them look different, but my god, we came back and we were ready to mother fucking rumble BITCHHHH. Someone was talking about their weight gain online and being negative about it, and I was on god, going to do some unspeakable acts to them because there is no way. Of course, they have gained weight, and oh my god, I was melting every time the two of them took their shirts off, ya girl was in a puddle. I physically didnt know what to do with myself. I have a thing for their body types, I fear. Oh god, I am gonna rewatch, but with one hand this time. I joke, I joke...yeah, for definitely a joke. I liked their dynamic. It was a rock, paper, scissors kind of thing, and I love that. Rock, paper, scissors dynamic, I say, is like a switching thing. Of course, I don't know if they were doing that, and set positions are weird, but fuckkk. I loved it. They were both dominant and submissive at the same time, my lord. BACK TO PHI'S CHARACTER, THE FUCKING DOMINANT SIDE OF HIM, MY LORD. I AM WET. Okay, that is all I can think of right now. THE SEDUCING SCENE, MY LORD I REWATCHED THAT SHIT 30 TIMES NO JOKE AND HAD TO FORCE MYSELF TO MOVE ON LMAO.

Starting off with what I didn't like. Tam's character, fuck. Okay, for the most part, it was good, but the reason why he left Phi pissed me all the way off. And the way he was fucking with him also made me angry. Uh what else. The first episode. I started this show 3 times and I couldn't get through the first episode, actually the first PART of the episode. It was so incredibly boring I had to strap myself down to a chair to get through it. And then when the coffee scene happened, I was like Why is this lowkey good as hell. But yeah, it was boringgggg. THE CAT PLOT. Bro, what the fuck are we even doing? The cat was so cute, and it was so cute that Tam refers to Phi as the cat's dad, but it just got so mehhh, and I was like What are we even doing right now? The end of our villains. I think they should have had more of like a crashing down moment, because what they did was just meh. I also didn't like the end ENDING. Like, oh, we have our certificates, now we are going to take a picture. They should have ended it at the wedding or after they came back to that scene, because that ending pissed me off. Yeah, that is all I can think of. The random ass island scene? Bro, what the fuck are we even doing? I lowkey ate it up, but it was so fucking random, my lord.

Now it is time for my overview. They are the equivalent of my irl parents getting back together, which was all weird to think about. I was thirsting over Singto because I do not remember him being that sexy. I was very interested in why they broke up, and they set that up nicely. The hazers had me so happy. Stuck on an ex. "WHY WAS THAT EP 3 HOURS LONG?" The seducing scene, I was dead. This show was all types of addictive. I met them and they were so hot. KRIST CODE SWITCHING IN THIS HAD ME DEAD. The car kissing scene. Random ass island scene. Cute.

I would recommend this one hundred times over, and I have rewatched this so many times already. Yeah. Okay bye!

Singto and Krist did not disappoint

Let me start of by saying, I admit that I am 100% biased toward Singto. I think he's a fantastic and versatile actor. Admittedly, I was not a huge fan of Krist in SOTUS and, besides it being groundbreaking at the time, I do not understand the hype around their ship. I personally thought Singto had much more chemistry with some of his other on-screen partners besides Krist. So, when Singto joined GMM and there was talk of him getting paired back up with Krist, I admit I was a teeny bit bummed. Never-the-less, when this series was announced, I was really looking forward to it regardless.

And, honestly, I didn't think I would be back-peddling as much as I am now upon finishing this series. I don't know if Krist has been getting acting lessons or if the reunion lent itself to lost familiarity (not unlike the characters in the series however I'll get to that parallel in a second) but the chemistry and overall acting from both of them in this was seriously impressive. I'd already been impressed with Krist's performance in Be My Favorite when he was opposite Gawin but at the time, I chalked it up to the fact Gawin could have chemistry with a tree.. seriously, he works so well with everyone.

But Krist really won me over in The Ex-Morning. He was brilliant throughout the series, with or without Singto. (I feel like some actors are only as good when their "pair" is on screen with them in the scene as if they can't hold their own as a solo actor which is one thing I hate about shipping culture.. but I digress.) They fed off each other so well, making their lines feel so natural, often to the point where I wonder if they were improvising.

It could have also been the script, mind you, as this was a solid story overall. It was an office romance but with a history and backstory told through flashbacks. While the flashbacks did not happen in order, I feel like they happened at the right moment when they were supposed to to show the parallels of their past with their present. It was really easy to follow and it was clear at what point in their relationship the flashbacks happened which I thought was great editing. Speaking of parallels, I feel like this was, in part, a love letter to their fans with the way their characters were together then one left, then came back... it mimicked their IRL career from their ship days in SOTUS, going their separate ways, then Singto coming back to GMM for their ship to set sail once again. Not to mention the many SOTUS references throughout (the engineering shirts at the costume party, someone pointing out that Phi used to be a hazer, the pink drink and the flat out mention of SOTUS being a series they watched together, just to name a few.)

The ONLY reason this wasn't a 10 for me was mainly due to two things... one being the constant use of phrases like "If this were a series then this would happen" or "what do you think this is, a rom com?" I know these lines are meant to be funny and ironic in a way but it's so overused and, especially in this series, they used it A LOT. Instead of adding to a scene, it just takes away from it, in my opinion. Like, we know this is a series and we know this is fake.. you don't have to try and sell this idea that it's real.

The other main gripe I had was the introduction and resolution of some plot points. The whole thing with Paul felt disjointed and the climax of that storyline seemed to come out of nowhere. Then you had the side GL that never really developed into anything even with all the lead up to it. At some points it felt like the cat was completely forgotten. And even Aou's character could have been fleshed out more as we never really got a sense of his motivation until the very end when we learn he just wanted to be on top at the station. He seemed too villainous to be just a simple professional rival but apparently that's all it was. I also thought there would be something wrong with Phi's mom instead as she seemed to be forgetful and maybe they were going to give her Alzheimer's or something. I mean, I'm glad they didn't, but it seemed like an obvious point they were trying to bring to our attention but then never did anything with it.

I'm actually surprised this wasn't 12 episodes as I feel like just 2 more episodes could have wrapped up those plot points a bit more. They certainly had an engaging and interesting storyline to work with, much more than a lot of the 12-14episode series that are out there. They could have easily filled up more time just by ironing out those wrinkles and filling the holes.

But really, other than that, what they did give us was a fantastic storyline which was executed extremely well. I actually find myself looking forward to the next Krist/Singto series, hoping they keep with this new momentum that they served to us here.

A Mature Reunion, a Love Rekindled

I’ll be honest — I’ve been excited about My Ex-Morning ever since GMMTV dropped the first teaser. After years of waiting, the reunion has finally arrived — and it’s every bit worth the wait. My Ex-Morning, produced by GMMTV and VIU under the direction of Lit Phadung Samajarn, runs for ten beautifully crafted episodes that aired from May 22 to July 24, 2025.

I personally anticipated this series the moment it was announced — not just because of Krist and Singto’s legendary chemistry from SOTUS, but because I honestly didn’t think we’d ever see them together on-screen again after Singto left GMMTV. Their return feels like a full-circle moment, and My Ex-Morning doesn’t just live up to the hype — it exceeds it with depth, maturity, and emotion.

🌤️ The Story: Love, Regret, and Second Chances

The series follows Phi (Pathaphi), a passionate but hot-tempered TV reporter whose career crumbles after a viral outburst caught on camera. To rebuild his image, he’s reassigned to develop a new program under the supervision of a new producer — who turns out to be Tam (Tamtawan), his former lover from their university days.

What unfolds is a slow-burn reunion — not just between two ex-lovers, but between two people forced to confront their unresolved feelings while working side by side under the spotlight of the media industry.

Phi’s fiery impulsiveness clashes with Tam’s calm, methodical approach, creating a dynamic that’s equal parts tension and tenderness. Their professional rivalry mirrors their personal history, and as the story unfolds, the flashbacks to their younger selves reveal the roots of their connection — and the pain that once tore them apart.

💚 Chemistry That Never Fades

The emotional tension between Krist and Singto is palpable. Their performances are layered and mature, balancing restraint with raw honesty. Krist embodies Phi’s expressive and heartfelt nature so well — you can feel every ounce of his frustration, regret, and longing. Singto, on the other hand, delivers a masterclass in subtlety. His Tam is composed on the outside but quietly aching underneath.

It’s the kind of chemistry that doesn’t rely on grand gestures — it lingers in glances, pauses, and unfinished sentences. You can sense that these two characters — and these two actors — share a deep history both on and off-screen.

🐾 Sosay, Paul, and the People Around Them

Supporting characters add even more life to the story. Rita (Godji Tacharon), with her wit and wisdom, brings warmth and humour. She’s the kind of friend who sees through the nonsense, and her advice about exes — that no matter how painful things get, there’s always a lingering care — hits deep.

Then there’s Paul (Ohm Thitiwat), who introduces an emotional complexity that many shows overlook. His presence highlights Tam’s insecurities — the quiet fear of not being “enough” or not being able to take care of Phi the way others could. Through Paul, we see Tam’s vulnerability, his pride, and the emotional barriers he’s built. It’s a beautiful contrast to Phi’s openness and impulsive love. Didn't think he was gonna be a villain in the end.

Even Sosay the cat deserves praise — honestly one of the most expressive pet performances I’ve seen in a GMMTV BL! The animal symbolism throughout the series adds another layer of intimacy, reminding the audience of the bond that still connects Phi and Tam, no matter how much time has passed. I may be exaggerating about the cat, as a cat dad myself.

🌸 Family Wisdom and Cultural Depth

One of the standout moments for me was the wisdom shared by both mothers — Wari (Ngrek Kanlaya), Phi’s mum, and Sa (Kwan Kwanrudee), Tam’s mum. Their conversations ground the story in realism and heart. They represent generations of love that have weathered storms, reminding the boys (and the audience) that reconciliation isn’t about erasing pain — it’s about choosing understanding over pride.

And that final wedding scene? Absolutely stunning. The depiction of the traditional Thai wedding was deeply rooted in culture and emotion. The traditional formal wear — with Krist and Singto dressed immaculately in elegant Thai attire — added both authenticity and beauty to the finale. It wasn’t just romantic; it was reverent. You could feel the love and respect for Thai tradition in every frame.

🎬 Visuals, Tone, and Execution

Technically, the series is outstanding. The cinematography is clean and intimate, often using warm tones to contrast the coldness of the newsroom. I especially loved the two-second grey colour transitions between past and present — a subtle yet clever storytelling device that makes the emotional shifts easy to follow.

The production team deserves credit for the attention to detail — from the styling that makes Krist and Singto look believably younger in the flashbacks to the natural lighting that highlights their performances without overdoing it.

💭 A Thoughtful, Mature BL

What makes My Ex-Morning truly special is how it breaks away from the usual BL tropes. Instead of focusing on a new romance, it explores what happens after love — the regret, the growth, and the slow rebuilding of trust. It’s rare to see ex-lovers as main characters in BLs, and even rarer to see it done this sincerely.

It’s a reflection of real relationships — messy, imperfect, but still full of hope. And for longtime KristSingto fans, it’s a nostalgic but refreshing experience. The show feels like closure — both for Phi and Tam, and for us who followed their journey since SOTUS.

Sure, there are moments when the writing feels a bit overflowing or certain subplots don’t fully land, but the emotional core remains solid. The pacing is steady, the dialogue feels natural, and the balance between humour and heartbreak is beautifully handled.

🌄 Final Thoughts

My Ex-Morning is a heartfelt reunion that doesn’t just rely on nostalgia — it redefines it. It’s mature, grounded, and sincere. The chemistry between Krist and Singto feels richer than ever, and the cultural elements — from family wisdom to the traditional Thai wedding — give it emotional and national pride.

As someone who personally anticipated this reunion for so long, I can say this series exceeded my expectations. It’s a story about rediscovery, forgiveness, and love that refuses to fade.

💚 Verdict: 9/10 — A beautifully crafted, emotionally intelligent series that blends nostalgia with growth. My Ex-Morning isn’t just a comeback — it’s a celebration of maturity, love, and Thai storytelling at its best.

A Feel Good BL from KristSingto

Now I understand why this series is a feel-good one, because the story itself is based on some real-life events that happened between Krist and Singto, such as Singto planning to go abroad for his Master's Degree, which never happened. Each episode I watched made me feel "kilig to the bones" because, compared to the first two series (SOTUS and SOTUS S; although I only watched the pilot episode of SOTUS), you saw them as teenagers with natural chemistry. In this series, I see them as adults, but still true to their off-camera personalities. Their kisses are so real, like, OMG, this is so real. Speaking of kisses, the cinematography is on point, and the storyline itself is very refreshing. Why is it very refreshing? Because of the setting in a news station workplace. Overall, I consider this series a masterpiece.

My happy place ♡

I'll keep this short and sweet, much like the series itself - I enjoyed this very, very much and I hope you'll give this a try and enjoy it as much as I did.

The Ex Morning is not a rom - com, it is a series that is incredibly realistic and mature, it's exes reuniting after all. The story is simple. Phi is a journalist with a bad attitude who is down on his luck and Tam is his producer there to help him get back on his feet. Through a series of flashbacks and present narratives we see their love story play out, and see how the past has shaped their present lives and attitudes. Apart from the love story itself, there is the story arc of Phi climbing his way back up to being a respected and dedicated journalist with Tam's help, and surprisingly, it didn't get lost in the romance.

The romance itself is mature and grounded, sure they argue like children at times but when the narrative continuously shifts between past and present, it's easy to see just how much has changed - and just how much hasn't. They've been through plenty of ups and downs, they go through many more and despite their pleas for an end card during rom - com inspired scenes, we all know well and truly, they'll face much more.
But that was what made this great, no over the top romantic moments, no musical crescendos, just two people falling in love with each other over and over again. There were arguments and misunderstandings, but also communication and support. They are not a perfect couple, but they are perfect for each other.

Sure - the reason for why they separated in the first place left me a bit disappointed, but I kind of also get it.

I'm a sentimental person, SOTUS was my first series ever.

Their chemistry (which was incredulously brilliant) was an added bonus. That chemistry has just grown exponentially and I loved every minute of them on screen. And my stupid sentimental heart is just so happy and in love with everything about this ♡
