Regarding the "peeking" scene, it wasn't my intention to offend any country's culture with what I wrote so I'm…
As stated in the novel, it is part of the hill tribe’s tradition where the groom goes through a “cleansing” ceremony the night before the wedding. It involves a widow (called "Mida") from the tribe who is chosen to have sex with the groom (teaching “The groom 101” ?).
I used to join the rural area development camp in the northern of Thailand (hill tribe village) when I was in the university. I've heard the similar stories before (I was an engineering student like Tian. The scenes in the series is like deja vu of me.
But I don't think they still practicing this tradition these days.
PS. Of course, It's inappropriate that these guys did that. I don't like the scene too. I call it "GMM Cringe" :) (For me, Tonhon-Chonlatee is the best described as "GMM Cringe")
I've just caught up with the latest eps and it's great so far. However the peeping tom incident was difficult…

Wow. This series is so good that the biggest flaw of the entire series was the peeping scene. Talk about superior…

PS. I used to join the rural area development camp in the northern of Thailand long time ago (hill tribe village) when I was in the university. I was an engineering student like Tian (I was a student at the same university as Mix in real life). The scenes in the series is like deja vu of me, the first meal scene ... riding down the hill by motorcycle to the town scene ... outdoor shower scene ... farming scene ... teaching scene ... ha ha ha
I keep thinking that the location in the series might be the same location as the camp I have been to.

They speak in Northern dialect. In Thailand, we have Northern dialect, North Eastern (E-san) dialect, Southern…
Yes. I have many friends at Chiang Mai. But there are subdialects spoken in the northern cities of Thailand. The northern of Thailand was once a separate kingdom called "Lan Na". Chiang Mai was the heart of the Lan Na kingdom. There are 2 main accents of the northern dialect - Western Lan Na accent and Eastern Lan Na accent.
Bangkok and Chiang Mai is like Madrid and Barcelona (Siam - Lan Na, Spain - Catalonia ), but less tension (or no tension).
Does anyone know why some of the characters' (the villagers mostly, and Drake's character) dialogue are subtitled…
They speak in Northern dialect. In Thailand, we have Northern dialect, North Eastern (E-san) dialect, Southern dialect, Provincial-Central accent, Eastern accent, Central/Bangkok accent. I'm Native-Bangkok, I can understand other accents around 60-95% (depend on the dialect/accent). The southern dialect is the most Greek to me.
That's why I have to read the subtitle in this series.

Other countries' BL: "Try not to delulu !"
Thai BL: "Hold my paddle ..."
