Well, some may just wish to be one of them, so that they can have the other lol.

I remember what he said in that pilot trailer, and wonder who he meant by saying that too.

Since this production house has done a lot of Lakhon dramas for years, no wonder this one turns out to be kind of Lakhon style melodrama/soap opera style.

This episode focused a lot on the couple, I guess partly to please fans. Well, a little faster pace with a bit more story in the episode may have been better. Not that I'm really bored or complaining though.

Thiwthit is not Thada's half brother, he is his stepbrother. I guess Thada's stepmother already had a son, Thiwthit, before she got married with Thada's father.

And the MV. of the OST. is really serving #ThadaArmin 's chemistry...!

We’re really wondering and having different theories. Not sure if Thada came back in time too though, or maybe they just wanna give us a glimpse of what happened after Armin’s death with Thada’s reaction in the original timeline. Agree that it will be interesting to see what happened after Armin died, despite knowing how devastated Thada would become could probably break us.

Yes we’re really wondering and having different theories. Not sure if Thada came back in time too though, or maybe they just wanna give us a glimpse of what happened after Armin’s death with Thada’s reaction in the original timeline. Guess we just have to wait and see then.

Oh I’ve read the first book of the novel. Since they’ve dramatized and changed a few characters and not completely followed the novel, somehow I still can’t exactly guess what direction the storyline in the series will go from now on. What will happen next will somewhat still unfold quite fresh in my eyes to a certain degree as well.

Do you mean the Thai song which is the OST. of the series? The name of the song in Thai is translated as something like “No matter how many times to start over again, it’s still you” by a Thai band called “No One Else”. I don’t see the song’s name in English written with this YouTube link to the OST. MV., but I believe the English name is “Always You”.

Thada could just buy any expensive cake in the world, but he chose to bake it for Armin by himself. Whoa this Armin’s beloved loser is just adorable.

Yes, “No One Else” is the band. The Thai name of the song is translated as something like “No matter how many times to start over again, it’s still you”. I don’t see the song’s English name written with this YouTube link to the OST. MV., but I believe the name is “Always You”.

I’ve finished the first book and really like that aspect of the novel too. No matter what came between them, Thada and Armin talked things out like adults, building such sweet and healthy relationship. Totally agree that special episodes should be made from special chapters, could be a great idea!

No problem, you can read anytime at your convenience. Hope this could clarify what you may wanna know.

Oh right, I’ve read the first book and agree that the novel has been dramatized. In the novel it was so sweet too, and I like that we could see Armin’s journey back to his popular stardom explored in more details, like each of his auditions, what his role was like and how he acted in each movie, etc., and the way Armin had to go through things while still being calm. Also he made friends with some fellow actors along the way. Since they’ve changed some characters and dramatized the novel, it seems that we can’t completely predict exactly what will really happen next. I hope we can still expect a happy ending in the series though, we still have to wait and see then. Anyway I actually like both the novel and so far the series, and think that they’re both fun in their own ways.

I’ve read the first book and agree that it’s not as dramatic as the series. This show is made by the production house which has produced a lot of Thai Lakhon dramas for years, that may be a reason why their adaptation turns out to be more dramatized version from the novel.

In the novel Weinai was called Winai who was Thada’s first secretary. Thada had another female second secretary named Lilith. Thada’s stepmother was mentioned, anyway I didn’t see Thiwthit the stepbrother exist in this first book, but saw other characters as Armin’s fellow actors, including Phat who in the novel was one of them too, but I didn’t see Aunt Jeed’s character either. When Armin and Charlie first met in new timeline, Charlie was just an ordinary crew in the set, not as confident as a photographer he was in the series.

I like Thada and Armin’s healthy relationship, and like the way how Armin first told Thada about his time travel indirectly. With many chapters in the novel, Armin’s journey back to his popular stardom like in his past life can be explored in more details, like each of his auditions, what his role was like and how he acted in each movie, etc. And of course, along the way Armin had to go through things, but he wasn’t as dramatized as in the series, he was quite calm while getting through them, probably because he’d already had like two decades of experience in show business before coming back in time to this ‘Reset’ point, and also partly with Thada’s help. So some people thought that Armin got together with Thada for his own benefit, and of course later they would finally see that his success came from his own talent.

Similar to the series, Thada valued his privacy, and was quiet, calm, stoic guy with kind of a dead face, but could only become smitten and sweet with Armin. Actually sometimes Thada in the novel still got a dead face with Armin, but his sweet words he spoke to Armin could still hit Armin profoundly even though spoken with his dead face.

I also like that along the way in the novel, Armin did make friends with some fellow actors, including Parit who he worked with in one of his early movies. In the series Armin said earlier that he and Parit were rivals and never worked together, but in the latest episode we know that later they got to work together in a movie. It may be interesting to see their dynamics whether they will still be rivals or can get along with each other.

Now we’re like halfway with the series. The overall premise and structure of the plot may be similar as a whole, Armin came back in time to meet Thada and had to navigate his way back to stardom. Anyway we can see some differences in the series since they’ve changed some characters and dramatized the novel, so I feel that we still can’t completely predict exactly what will really happen next with the storyline in details for later episodes, and in the trailer we saw something like Armin got shot again.

I hope we can still expect a happy ending, we still have to wait and see then. I actually like both the novel and so far the series, and think that they’re both fun in their own ways.

We can find this novel here too. On this ‘Details’ page of this series, go to ‘Recent Discussions’ section, click the title ‘Novel link or spoilers’ and look it up. I think someone has posted a link to read this novel on wattpad.

Feel somewhat kind of sorry for Narin too. Anyway Thada was clear about this relationship with that ‘transactional exchange’ from the beginning, and Narin accepted that, knowing this condition and willing to be Thada’s ‘kept artist’ at the first place. It was a consensual relationship just with Thada’s condition.

Unfortunately Narin had no other better choice available, so if he wanted this transactional exchange he just had to accept that. So once Narin fell for Thada, it simply had to end. Well, somehow It didn’t seem so fair for Narin and not that it was his fault, but as Thada was the one with wealth and power, he got to set the condition in this agreement in his favor.

Without that kind of behavior to be frowned upon, Thada could be a flawless perfect man. Maybe the author of the novel didn’t want him to be so perfect, so she added him some shades of gray. And somehow that made a somewhat more rounded character, not perfect, with some flaws just like many human beings.

Before this show, who would’ve thought that Pan and Pond could give such great chemistry? Whoever paired them up surely deserves such a raise. And Thada sulking?! Really like the “Oh you gotta work harder and put more effort to make it up to me” vibe. Why did I find the sulking Thada this cute?!
