Waiting for Episode 4: Rainbows, Pen Names, and Half of EverythingThe weekend isn’t even here yet, but I’m…
Thank you for such interesting insight with intriguing dynamics between Krailert and Naran. By the way Krailert's alias, "Klai Rung", is ใกล้รุ่ง in Thai. The English spelling of the name remains unchanged, as the pronunciation is pretty much the same but pronounced in different tones. Anyway it's different word and the meaning in Thai is kind of "near dawn/almost dawn".
Officially they're not even if they gave them lots of screentime ^^They didn't even promote their couple before…
Maybe they wanted to surprise viewers with this couple? So that's why they didn't promote them as a couple earlier in the trailer, but just let us see them in the series. I didn't expect that they'd pair them up at first, so that's my guess.
This episode caught me off guard right from the start: Thee’s grandma walks in wearing pants. Pants! I had to…
You can think of what grandma wore as somewhat like pants or trousers. It was from a piece of cloth or clothing called 'jonggraben' in Thai, and was very common in that time period.
This traditional clothing was big piece of cloth wrapped around the waist, rolled and secured or tied in a knot behind the back, sometimes fastened with a belt. Somehow it kind of looked like baggy pants, and it was unisex. Thee and his father also wore that sometimes.
I guess we don't like homophobic family members including snobbish grandmother, but have to admit that how her highness granny fought did make her point with such sharp words. So I do agree with you, brutal, but brilliant.
That's right about M.R. and M.L. (in most cases). According to Thai royal titles, the lowest princely title is…
I don't really know whether these ranks are translated correctly to their equivalent English counterpart either. For your question I'm not sure if I got it right. As far as I understand about taking orders, government officials were supposed to take direct work orders from their higher-ranked boss within the ministry they worked for. A boss wasn't supposed to give work orders to others who weren't his subordinates under his supervision within the ministry.
In general a government official shouldn't do anything disrespectful to anyone with higher ranks from any ministry, so what Dech's father did to Rati was quite unacceptable. They might have some kind of rule of law to punish those who did such thing which I'm not sure. The only person who could order around anyone to do anything was probably only the King, since the Kingdom was still under the regime of absolute monarchy at that time.
Thanks ChatGPT.As Viscount, a wai was done by Dech, a baronet which is a noble hereditary title but rank-less,…
That's right about M.R. and M.L. (in most cases). According to Thai royal titles, the lowest princely title is "Mom Chao", so children and grandchildren of Mom Chao are no longer princes and princesses, but still have some hereditary titles. Children of Mom Chao have the title of M.R. - "Mom Rajawonse". Children of M.R. have the title of M.L. - "Mom Luang". Children of M.L. have no royal title and become commoners.
And then we have the goverment official ranks of those who were government officials, these ranks were not hereditary, they were old-fashioned and no longer existed. If we are to focus among these 4 characters; Dech, Ruj, Rati and Thee, they have different ranks of Muen, Khun, Luang and Phra respectively, each is one level higher than the previous one.
Dech is the youngest with the rank of Muen, lowest rank among these four. His father Ruj's rank is Khun, one level higher then Dech. Rati eanred the rank of Luang (Luang Ratijarupich - Viscount Ratijarupich), one level higher than Ruj. Thee's rank is one level higher than Rati, his rank is Phra (Phra Suratheetamtanapich - Count Suratheetamtanapich).
In this show, the ranks Muen, Khun, Luang, and Phra are translated as Baronet, Baron, Viscount, and Count, respectively.
Oh...Just came across this very small channel!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=poFNa8etro8It's an interview about…
Oh I just watched it which is part 1, and part 2 has already come out but haven't watched it yet. I heard Pond used to go to school in Singapore and Pan went to high school in New Zealand, so that's why they're fluent in English. And also I've found another Pan&Pond interview of a few months ago from another small channel. The host is Chinese but it was English interview. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uvV2RQHN3PA
I noticed that apparently many people weren't finding romance in others BL.
These roles seemed like created exactly for them. Can't think of anyone else to fit the roles of Tada and Armin better than Pan and Pond at this moment.
Pond Ponlawit is so beautiful. His character, Armin, makes him incredibly charming 😍 I wonder if he’s already…
The 'Reset' novel has 3 books. So just hope that the next book can be source material for the next sequel to bring Pond and Pan back to work together again.
Nah wtf was this bs. This is the best shi I ever watched. Send help. Other bls need to take note. From the way…
This show didn't come from GMMTV. It was from IQIYI in collaboration with Broadcast Thai Television, the production house which usually has produced Thai Lakorn/Lakhon or Thai melodramas/soap opera style dramas for years, and that's why over the top overacting can be expected sometimes. This is probably the first BL series from this production house, and it's fun.
I love actors who show so much emotions from just there eyes and slight change in facial expressions 😭 pond…
Pan and Pond are both my favorite actors. The novel has 3 books, so hope that the next book can be source material for a sequel to bring them back to work together again.
