bold for you to assume in the age we live in money is not good and wanted but u could also be right aside from…
Saint is not a bad person for wanting money (hey we all need to work and pay our bills right?)
I just don't like the false pretense of "caring for equality". Especially when you are signed to a entertainment company that is very problematic and the cast he chose isn't diverse at all. The fan praises for him "fighting for equality" isn't deserved. So its best not to mention it at all.
Its disappointing how so many are fooled into thinking Saint suddenly cares about "equality" and "not making money" just cause hes producing a GL drama.
hes literally signed to the most racially insensitive company in thailand (channel 3) and his casting is not diverse at all.
Please think of the other minorities too. Not just the sexual minorities only.
I didn't want to be the one to say it I'm glad you did 😬 haven't wanted to get hated on but since you said…
they might just like his look. which i don't blame them, people like a certain look for romance dramas. We'd be lying if we said we didn't. One of the popular GMMTV actors atm isn't the best at speaking thai, but since hes arguably the best looking, hes getting lead role regardless.
There are some actors who weren't the best looking to me at first (i won't name them cause its not nice), but they still totally won me over with their acting. Even as a gay man, i feel much more attached to Black's girlfriend and thats due to the outstanding performance of the actress. Anyways maybe Gawin will improve in the future.
https://youtu.be/lMDRGukemos?t=410 = this moment in the drama touched me!!! This is the only drama that addresses the fact that Chinese owned Thai entertainment companies INTENTIONALLY hires unattractive Dark Skin women and non-passing Trans to portray them in a negative light. They want to portray them as UNDESIREABLE jokes compared to the lead characters who are almost always light skinned or Eurasian (and who also look like they go to the gym and have a beauty routine).
They never want a attractive dark skin woman or trans woman to outshine the lead actress, so they represent them poorly on purpose!!!
If you guys don't know, there is a thai transgender pageant called "Miss Tiffany Universe" where a majority of the contestants are drop dead GORGEOUS and are equally stunning compared to many lead actresses, but thai dramas NEVER hire them. They can't be used in gag roles because of "their beauty" and can't be hired in a lead role because they can't sell a drama due to "being trans".
Here is two trans contestants that are the most stunning!:
please don't glorify a racist industry like thailand who are willing in put 3 eurasians in prominent roles in…
#SoutheastAsiansInThailandExists
stop erasing southeast asian ethnicities please. we know ASIAN PEOPLE with no chinese or european blood exist in thailand. Stop gaslighting people to protect your racist culture.
they didn't hire a single southeast asian to be in this F4 show. Not a single Blasian. Just a bunch of white and chinese people. This is racism.
"what I also see is a balanced amount of popular celebrities who look full Thai and Euroasian Thais"
LIES. You want to talk about balance? Eurasians make up less than 1% of the population yet they are represented in lead roles 30-40% of the time. thats unbalanced and an inaccurate portrayal of thailand.
"They all share the same amount of fame, no one is more famous then the other no matter their background."
Actually all the MOST FOLLOWED "thai" actresses on instagram are all Eurasian. While Blasian celebrities are no where near the top followed. White Eurasians is worshipped and Blasians are SHAMED. Thats not equal, thats discrimination. Stop gaslighting. Who wants to bet you are a chinese supremacist from Singapore/Malaysia?
please don't glorify a racist industry like thailand who are willing in put 3 eurasians in prominent roles in…
Its true. The proof is in the photos dear. Just the difference between her real life skintone and what is shown on the show is clear. Thailand didn't want to give that role to a REAL dark skin girl. So they tanned a chinese girl instead.
On top of hiring over 5 Eurasians in the drama, they hired another extra two Eurasians to sing in the OST.
this show is not the "thai version" of F4 but the Eurasian chinese version of F4. the erasure of southeast asians and hatred of blasians in Thailand is RACISM PERSONIFIED.
please don't glorify a racist industry like thailand who are willing in put 3 eurasians in prominent roles in…
of no one is going to "report" on this. They don't care. Just like no one makes news reports when many celebs wear a foundation that is 3 times lighter. People literally be cosigning the BS.
please don't glorify a racist industry like thailand who are willing in put 3 eurasians in prominent roles in…
Yes, its on her instagram page. She used to be very pale until she got casted. She is much lighter than what is portrayed on the show. Anything to get a dark skin southeast asian out of an acting role right GMMTV?
One thing I like about Thailand actors & actresses interactions between their co-stars compared to Korean/Chinese…
please don't glorify a racist industry like thailand who are willing in put 3 eurasians in prominent roles in a single drama (F4) while ignoring blasians and erasing dark skin asians.
they even darkened Tu's skintone to play a poor character. She has fake dark skin!
Contrary to other actors who were only cast for their looks, Perth has amazing acting skills. He doesn't even…
his acting is bad. there was a reason that he didn't speak thai much because it would have showcased his bad acting even further. He was not only casted for his looks but also because hes eurasian (which is what the character Ram is suppose to be). Thats just a fact.
its okay to like him because of his looks but don't try to twist reality. When he speaks thai in the cutie pie trailer, it does not sound remotely believable in a role of a thai person.
Loved Jennie in 'the shipper' but even more so in '3 will be free'. Such an important role (to me) and just as…
I also bet you are also a Lizzo fan. The powers that be like propping up minstrel shows and mammy's for dark skin representation in Asia while they will prop up beautiful / positive images of chinese and light skinned people. Stop acting like this trans gag comedian is doing anything for darker skinned women. GMMTV would never hire a dark woman that is cisgendered and actually looks pretty. They hire Jokes to slander them on purpose and the fact that you celebrate it is problematic.

jk lol but yeah its definitely a miscast on GMMTV's part. This show has been has been a masterpiece on every other aspect though 👍👍👍

honestly, he needs to polish up his acting skills if he wants more roles, hes the weakest one in the show so far sadly.

Lets be happy that Hia Lian addressed the problematic anti trans and colorist propaganda!!!

Oh GMMTV don't stop showing your discriminatory practices and elitism, please.
