SCREW YOU! your the only one here with a problem, so go somewhere else, you don't have to love her, but don't…
Go look up her tv show where shes with foreign men speaking bad english for "laughs". Shes doing self mockery comedy at the expense of making dark skin people look uneducated. This is not right. Dark skin thai women need REAL role models. Not a gag comedian contributing to this reputation that women with tan skin are "low class"
And why is Jennie's work supporting discrimination? I'm not saying that this problem doesn't exist in Thailand,…
Did you know she has a tv show called "Wrong Say Do" where she speaks horrible english and acts like a clown around foreign men? Shes blatantly making them look uneducated. Shes a horrible role model for both dark skin and trans people. We should have more dark skin actresses who are cisgendered and conventionally pretty but there are basically NONE. All they have is Jennie which is beyond sad. Pale skin girls get to be represented by cisgendered women in leading acting roles who are intelligent, classy, and beautiful and dark skin people don't get to have that. They either get overweight gag comedians or trans gag comedians. GMMTV will hire a tan man but not a tan woman
As Lady Ginko says there's a difference between laughing at someone and laughing with. If she wasn't a good entertainer…
She has a tv show where shes speaks poor english with foreign men and basically tries to make dark skin + trans women look UNEDUCATED and CLASSLESS. So spare me the lecture on why i should support this problematic sellout
They should stop giving the Mr. Bean lookalike lead roles. This the second time hes being upstaged by side pairings. The same thing happened in What the Duck. I think that is a sign that he shouldn't be getting lead.
And why is Jennie's work supporting discrimination? I'm not saying that this problem doesn't exist in Thailand,…
I just think its odd how 99% of the time they cast her. Its to make dark skin people look bad and undesirable. GMMTV casts her often to make them look like jokes. I've literally never seen them cast a beautiful dark skin actress into positive lead/support roles that is always relegated to half white actresses. and when was the last time you saw a half white or pale thai TRANS person that does the same clown roles as Jennie? Thats NEVER! They clearly want Jennie to portray them in a bad light.
Quite frankly it does not makeup for that ONE time in "3 Will Be Free". That was a ONE OFF and represents the 1%.
Do not support this "actress". She's being hired by GMMTV to make dark skin people look bad and look like clowns on television.
“There exist stereotypes, biases, and judgments — even if secretly whispered — which incite many of the racial issues present at a larger scale. We see buses toting whitening cream adverts and dark-skinned actors perpetually clowning around in comedic roles on TV every day.”
This is from an article about a half black woman being discriminated and mistreated in Thailand and images that Jennie helps portray on TV is making it worse for people like her!
wow. that was harsh but I agree with you in most of points. I would like to give him a chance. Maybe he will be…
Bright has 7 years of experience and Win surpassed him in skill (though Win did have some weak moments on the show as well). Not to mention that 2gether was Win's debut. So there is no excuse really. Hes just getting by on his looks. We sometimes see the same thing in east asian dramas. They deliberately sacrifice the impact of the storytelling by casting solely on looks instead of talent. It should also be noted that the character in the novel was not a mixed american and had tan skin. So Bright visually did not fit the character of Sarawat either. GMMTV should be ashamed.
the rating of this show is biased for how little of a plot and how little talent the lead actor Bright has. Sure there was one kiss at the end but does that warrant such a high rating? I think not. Even as a Sotus fan, i could realize how bad the 2nd season was in comparison to the first. 2gether had a lot to fix about the show than just lack of intimacy. The 2nd part of this series basically just continued the 3rd rate community theater was saw in 1st part. Still filled with questionable acting/dialogue, non-existent plot, and cringy product placement that makes K-drama look tame when they do it lol. Bright does not deserve any fame for his "acting" and he should stop taking lead roles immediately! If he wants to be famous for his looks, then be a model. Stop ruining Thai dramas! Its not like its remotely believable for him to portray a thai person anyways.
in as much as i support Bright and Win's individual career, i just think it's too soon for this. Before i became…
Bright does not deserve lead roles if he is an incapable actor. That is what most people think is a fair criteria for casting in a Drama. Many viewers know that he is lacking. Plus he does not fit the image of the original character to begin with. Hes getting another lead role because of his looks and thai people are obsessed with mixed american celebrities. Just look at Mario Maurer, Sunny, and Nadech and how famous they are.
Your opinion should be based on the series itself, not on news regarding the actors' career.
Not like the series has a strong plot or acting anyways. People just like the show because of the visuals of the mixed white actor (who is terrible at acting but hes "handsome" so that makes up for everything apparently). The chemistry between the pair were non-existent.
Definitely agree about the lack of acting skills. I guess that's kinda true about the white privilege thing, but…
OMG.. so much FALSE INFORMATION.
You claim that "mixed chinese are over represented" and then you give the percentage of FULLY ETHNIC chinese in Thailand.
Mixed chinese accounts to 30% of the Thai Population (most of all that is in the central bangkok area). Fully ethnic chinese is 11%. Do you research before commenting on a foreign country please.
Comparing the mixed chinese representation to the mixed white is also a false equivalence. how the hell do you justify Mixed whites (who represent less than 1% of the population) getting lead roles constantly and being the MOST FOLLOWED THAI CELEBS ON INSTAGRAM compared to mixed chinese (who represents 30-40% of the population) not even having the same number of followers or fame as mixed white celebs? Please explain that to me. Because thats not making any sense. Mixed whites are clearly unhealthly worshiped in this country. The self hate is pretty evident by what is popular. Asian look in general is seen as 2nd class compared to white europeans.
your argument in regards to mixed chinese representation so far has been anecdotal at best. Because i know a foreigner like you can't tell the difference between north thai / isan and a mixed chinese thai person from central thailand. Its alot more ambiguous than you make it seem. The world does not know how our ancestors were shoved down here by the Han chinese. The Tai / Dai people are the real thai people that while central Thailand is mon khmer mixed with chinese ethnics. Learn about Thai history instead of making assumptions.
Definitely agree about the lack of acting skills. I guess that's kinda true about the white privilege thing, but…
Lol now you're trying to backtrack as if you weren't trying to steal the identity of many Thai people a couple posts back and claim them as chinese? Thats what you were totally saying a while back! That there were "more Chinese than actual thai people" in the media! This is what chinese nationalist tend to do, they see a yellow person in Southeast Asian country and will automaticaly mislabel them as chinese!
And even if your claims were the case. Thai Chinese represents more of the population to JUSTIFY REPRESENTATION. Half white (just like half blacks) are the smallest minority and represent the tiniest percentage of the Thai population yet why are half whites constantly in LEAD ROLES and mixed black are NOT? Because ITS RACISM, white privilege and eurocentrism. Thai mixed Chinese are visible full asians and can be seen as comparable to represent a normal Thai person at least. You can not say the same for other mixes. And if you're gonna hire Mixed Whites in LEAD ROLES all the time, then DO THE SAME FOR HALF BLACK BECAUSE THATS CALLED EQUALITY.
Definitely agree about the lack of acting skills. I guess that's kinda true about the white privilege thing, but…
Well they better care? How many people have to suffer til the majority of the country finally stages an uprising?
Did you not hear about the arrest of Apple Daily CEO Jimmy Lai? The CCP tried to arrest him on bullshit charges under the new "security act" and that only drove the citizens of Hong Kong to support him and his right to free speech. China was eventually pressured to release him early because Hong Kong fought back. Hong Kong citizens actually have balls and thats why the world supports them! Its clear to me that the people in mainland China are helping the CCP at this point. there is no whitewashing around it. SILENCE IS BEING COMPLICIT!!
Tibet was seized because they wanted to control the source of water and east turkestan was seized due to its resources (that none of the Uighur people benefit from). Yet no outcry from the chinese people?? The CCP is currently trying to making many southeast asian countries into puppet states. The destruction they've cause its unparalleled. They even helped commit a genocide here! The Thai democracy movement is also being blocked by the CCP!! Yet like Hong Kong, the Thais fight back!
"NO. It's magnified because the government controls all of our media. You clearly have never been here. I get it. Lots of foreigners make the same mistake."
i've told you already about the CCP making 170,000 fake twitter accounts used to spread lies about the Wuhan virus. So i know all about their ways to push a fake narrative for the world to see. But that doesn't mean there also aren't many mainland chinese who are brainwashed by the CCP propaganda and believe in it.
"Because making political assumptions about a person for simply existing in a country is ignorant, lazy and wrong, perhaps? Just a thought."
its not ignorant when the majority of the thai chinese support military dictatorship and suppression of free speech in Thailand. So to think foreign chinese people aren't the same unless from Taiwan isn't that much of a stretch isn't it? Its rare that a Thai chinese would speak up for the oppressed in Thailand.
"Anyway, I get that you have an extremely personal grudge against the CCP while simultaneously resenting all Chinese people by association, but that's not my fault. So, project that toward a productive goal instead of toward random people in China....especially the Chinese people who actually agree with you, like me."
People like you are RARE. Every mainland chinese person i've talked does not see it my way and pretty much think their country is in the right
It takes a downward turn after Sarawat and Tine move in together, then the last two episodes achieve maximum suckage…
Gxxod used the BL scene just like Bright and i feel that its karma that his career is on the wane now lol. We could have had a 2moons 2nd season with the original cast if not for him.
Definitely agree about the lack of acting skills. I guess that's kinda true about the white privilege thing, but…
"Sweetheart, nobody's touting anything about nationalism or politics except you. There's a billion people here. A big portion of that billion hate the government just as much as you do. Believe me. Why don't you hear about it?...You guessed it! The government. lol So, please don't think we also don't realize how much they're bullshitting. I'm not stealing anyone's identity either, so you should really drop that. I don't know many times I need to explain how I haven't done that at all. And lastly, yeah, they probably are lying about the virus. They lie about everything else too."
Heres where you're dead wrong. A MAJORITY of chinese people support the CCP because they're either brainwashed by the state owned media or extremely nationalistic beyond the point of reason.
The government wouldn't exist if there wasn't a stable amount of general public support. If the majority of the country actually started to become anti-CCP, then thats when the CCP's power will begin to fade. Massive riots would have been happened. But CCP currently stays in power because a) the chinese majority nonchalantly don't care or b) they actually support the BS. What they're doing in the Uighur province is quite scary and they must be stopped!
Did you know Bright is being attacked by CCP bots on the daily? These people are making multiple accounts and harassing him daily about his girlfriend's statement regarding the Wuhan virus and his Hongkong statement
"The rest of what you said I'm in full agreement with. Bright really was garbage in this series."
well glad we can agree on one thing.
"Also, next time you decide to attack something online, you should stick to the topic instead of drifting into ad hominem rants against people just because of the country they come from. It really makes you look as bigoted as those corrupted people you were criticizing."
There are a billion of you. The voices that support the CCP are extremely magnified due to that reason only. The rest of the world is a minority in comparison. So why wouldn't i assume that you don't care about the dirty deeds the CCP does? I constantly come across nationalist chinese people who cannot be reasoned with. Their support for the authoritarian regime is affecting MY PEOPLE. China is considered a big bully in Mainland Southeast Asia (which includes Thailand). We're being held hostage by their will if we don't do what China says. CCP funded terrorist in Myanmar because they chose to help with a project that supported India. CCP threatens to hold back more water from us in the Mekong river with their dams if Thailand and Laos doesn't accept their gentrification projects which has displaced many local villagers without pay! They had their karma with this when their dams started flooding this year after holding back so much water last year and causing crop devastation in our countries.
But its just sad that it was the poor chinese villagers who had to suffer. Did you know they had to DELIBERATELY flood a village to save a city full of rich people when the dams were overflowing? Shows how CCP isn't really a real communist government. Just capitalism under dictatorship.
I don't see it as white privilege actually, more like he got the part because he's "HOT"... he needs to learn…
You're absolutely right on the money with that one. They didn't even try to hide it and you notice how they barely do fanservice outside of the show too. Hes protecting his image from the gay role that he greatly benefited from.
and yes. He used to bully lgbt students with other people in school. He was friends with a rich politician's son (who no doubt got away with everything he did)
Quite frankly it does not makeup for that ONE time in "3 Will Be Free". That was a ONE OFF and represents the 1%.
