A Dream come True!
Okay, let me scream this from the rooftops—The Next Prince has completely taken over my heart!! This series is EVERYTHING I’ve ever wanted and more. A royal fairytale? Check. A bodyguard/prince slow-burn romance? Check. Zee Pruk and NuNew Chawarin as the leads?? Screaming, crying, throwing flowers!!
Let’s start with NuNew as Prince Khanin—he is pure magic. He plays the reluctant royal with such softness and vulnerability that I just wanted to reach through the screen and hug him. And then we have Zee as Charan, the stoic, loyal, secretly soft bodyguard who had me gasping every time he looked at Khanin like he hung the stars in the sky. The chemistry between them?? Off. The. Charts. Every little glance, every quiet moment—pure BL gold.
The story itself is so beautifully written too. A prince who doesn’t want to rule, a bodyguard who’s sworn to protect, and a journey across kingdoms that turns into the most tender, emotional love story? My heart was not ready. Also, the visuals are STUNNING—the palace, the fencing scenes, the costumes… it’s like a K-drama fairytale with a Thai BL heart.
But let’s be real—Zee and NuNew make this series. They’re so natural together, so emotionally in sync, and they bring such depth to their roles that I was either swooning or crying in every episode (sometimes both at the same time!).
If you’re a fan of slow-burn romance, royal drama, or you just want to watch two insanely talented (and gorgeous!) men fall in love on screen—The Next Prince is an absolute must-watch. I already know I’ll be rewatching this again and again.
ZeeNu are the moment. And I am so here for it!
