Question for DMD experts: could someone kindly tell me which dramas with DMD actors were produced by Mandee and which were produced by other companies?
Did I hear my name?
I started off trying to give a really complete answer to this question, but I increasingly recognised how dauntingly long and complicated that would be. For example, just look at Poppy's profile - and the great majority of these titles were during the very long time he was under exclusive management by Domundi!
Compared to GMMTV, Domundi/Mandee is much more of an open ecosystem, with Domundi artists in lots of non-Mandee projects and non-Domundi actors regularly in Mandee productions.
There's the added complication of comparing filming dates with Domundi start dates. For example, Namping and Ohmkrit in "Night Dream", Keng in "Paradise of Thorns", Tutor in "Tale of aThousand Stars", etc. etc. - were these still being filmed after they formally signed with Domundi? I don't know and am too lazy to find out.
Domundi/Mandee has particularly strong ties to Cheewin and his production company Copy A Bangkok. Although I believe only "ChermChey" and "Suntiny" officially have "Copy A Bangkok" on the poster as producer, Cheewin (and thus Copy A) has been closely involved in lots of other Mandee productions. It's a close and long-standing cooperation going all the way back to "Why R U?", the starting point of Domundi/Mandee as we know it today - and directed by Cheewin. Copy A has particularly close connections for anything involving Max & Nat, who they somehow co-manage.
"Battle of the Writers" was produced by Hydroindus Entertainment but directed by Kla Nathawat, who is basically Aoftion's right hand, so I assume it was a very close cooperation.
"Two Worlds" was produced by Kongthup. As I wrote above, Max & Nat are a special case.
Feel free to add other non-Mandee titles to this list, but these four BLs are the ones that jump to my mind.
