Better than putting them in school uniforms lol...
Well, Dunk went from being a college student (Star in my Mind/Hidden Agenda) to a high school student (Summer Night) to a car mechanic (The Heart Killers) to a police inspector (Dare You To Death). All the while, he hasn't aged one bit. XD I'd say the 18-30 jump definitely applies to him.
Change2561 is also planning to adapt another one of MTRD.S' novels named Goddess Bess You From Death, with Pavel and Pooh. So I'm really excited to see how both series will turn out.

That's because in the last two years, about 80-90% of GMMTV series were set in high school or college. So yeah, it's quite a jump, but a necessary one. Given a majority of their artists are in the mid-late 20's, and some even in their 30's, fans are gonna riot if they release another lineup of mostly school dramas.
Ooh, backstage theater drama is the best. And finally! A series that doesn't involve Earthmix toughing it out in the countryside. I wonder if they'll bring back any of the original cast, or at least have some of them do a cameo or something.
I couldn't help but laugh at that interrogation scene with Drake and Dunk. One is a college student, and the other is a police inspector. Yet, in real life, they're both 24. I brought this up with my friend who was watching the live stream with me, and she was like, "Dunk skipped several grades and graduated early... and he got promoted, a lot!" XD
I really hope they get enough backers to start filming soon.
GMMTV 2025 lineup is super ambitious. I don't know if we'll get to see all of the shows on free or subscription TV, but I'm just so glad they finally come to their senses and scale back on their school-themed series. I'm getting sick of seeing twenty and thirty-something artists pretending to be high school and college students.
The Heart Killers just premiered and already, JoongDunk and FirstKhaotung are gonna be in another series in 2025/2026. Watching GMMTV 2025 Riding The Wave right now and I gotta say, they're REALLY ambitious this season. Still, while I'm happy that they're finally laying off the school-themed drama, WHAT THE HECK is up with their obsession with supernatural? I count at least three series involving tarot cards lmao.
Initially, I thought this was a GL version of The Sign (with Billy and Babe), but it's not the same. The first episode is good. I'm looking forward to see how it goes.
I want to watch it so bad but people are saying that it's similar to 'we are' and i didn't like that.
They're both set in college, so I guess that's one thing they have in common. The main difference is We Are is based on a single novel, whereas Perfect 10 Liners is based on three novels, all by Jittirain. If you like her work, then this series should be a good one.
Oh no, he's not the only one at GMMTV who got work done, so I don't care about that. The entertainment industry is pretty cutthroat, so he wouldn't be the first to get work done for the sake of his career.
Probably. Compared with My Only 12% and Between Us, his nose does seem sharper and more defined. I guess the Korean trend is catching on in Thailand lol.
Why does Gmmtv only have to couple two men for bl, like as long as they are a ship and cp, they will do every…
While the CP system has a lot of downsides, a successfully paired CP can bring in a lot of profits. Even now, long-standing CPs like TayNew, OffGun and EarthMix has a loyal following, and they're some of GMMTV's top earners. So unless all the BL fans have suddenly disappeared, I doubt GMMTV is going to make any changes.
Though recently, I noticed they are loosening the "rules" and letting actors branch out to do individual projects, or work with other actors besides their CP. In doing so, it allows the actors to grow and not rely their fame (or career) solely on their CP. Their shows might not be to your taste since their main demographic is the younger generation, and anything too overboard may get them into trouble with their broadcasting regulators. If you're looking for something with more mature themes, you might want to look elsewhere.
If the first half of the year feels lackluster, then GMMTV seems to have rebound with the second half with solid shows such as Peaceful Property For Sale, Pluto, High School Frenemy and now this. Combined with The Heart Killers premiering next week (Wednesday? Thursday?), and I guess it's safe to say we should be entertained well into 2025.
Finally got around to watching the first two episodes. I'm a huge fan of the Korean original, so I do have some expectations, though I'm trying to keep it to a minimal since Thailand doesn't really have a good history with adaptations. So far, it's not bad. It looks like they want to use this show to bring attention to the dark side of the Thai education system (eg. bullying, peer pressure, etc.), but I don't know if they're going for that. Either ways, it's still worth watching.
