The last S in SOTUS S actually has a meaning that is explained by the author at the end of the series. She said it could mean either secret, soulmate, support, or share.

The names I added are the only ones I could read. If anyone is better at reading Thai and would like to add the rest of the cast, look through the show's official FB page (which I will link in the bottom). Also, this show seems to have some BL elements to it, however, that's just what I was able to gather from the teasers and trailers.

Just want to say that season 2 was confirmed more than a year ago and I've heard no news of it since. I don't know if it's still happening. However, the movie is also supposed to get a sequel in 2018. The sequel was confirmed much later (September) and already has a teaser video posted by one of the actors so I think this one is more likely to happen.

Even just hearing the theme song makes me cry. I used to watch this on TV with my grandparents and my dad.

Okay that's what I thought

There is no blackface in this show nor did I mention it so I don't see why you're bringing it up. Anyways, I am not the one normalizing it. If you read my comment, you'll see I refer to it as "a fault," "sad," and "outrageous." In no way do I think colourism should be normalized. It is something I advocate passionately against because it has affected me personally. However, I'm not going to take it out on the people who worked on this show because they are the victims here. They are the ones who had Eurocentric beauty standards forced upon them. They are the ones who are brainwashed into thinking they have to be white to be beautiful. Instead, I will speak out against those who have created the stigma around dark skin and not those who were dragged along.

For those who are wondering, it can be considered a sad or happy ending. It depends on the way you look at it. This is where spoilers come in so beware.
The two main characters do not stay together and that is why you may consider it a sad ending. However, Huang Lin found himself a new boyfriend who wasn't afraid to come out of the closet. In this case, it could be considered a happy ending for him.

It's not

That's not a fault of the character or the writing. That's a fault of the culture. Colourism is prevalent in many parts of Asia, especially in the media. Mothers bleach their children's skin, skin whitening creams/treatments are sold and promoted, dark skin people are insulted, etc.
In Asia, white skin equates beauty while dark skin is seen as ugly and dirty. "Black" or "dark" is used as an insult but telling someone their skin is white will be taken as a compliment. An example of this is the Thai song "Charming Person." In the song, the singer likes someone and is insulting them to get their attention. One of the insults used, when translated, says "You're as black as a 2B pencil."
This isn't bad writing. It's very sad but colourism has been normalized in Asia. Oat making that comment may seem outrageous to you and me, however, that is a very normal thing to joke about with friends in countries like Thailand, India, Philippines, China, etc.

I find he was much more flirty in the novel. So much so that he confesses his feelings for Xia Yao after only about ten chapters (this would be around the episode just after Xia Yao tells Yuan Roo that he has a problem in bed). He even gives Xia Yao a naked miniature version of himself with an erection just a few chapters later.

I'm glad this show was finally added to MDL. This is the show that brought me to find my favourite singer, Dimash.

So this is clearly based off of RuPaul's drag race (a show I don't watch but my sister does). I'm wondering if the people behind this show are connected to RuPaul or if they're just copying his show.

It's been a long time but I finally found out what happened. Apparently after Toey came back from Europe, Chinese fans started spreading rumours about him and Proy (his girlfriend) and telling him to stop acting so close to Ohm. They started insulting Proy so Toey responded, telling them to be polite to her. However, they started to act even harsher towards Toey so he eventually deleted his Twitter account and all pictures of him and Ohm. Then Toey and Ohm unfollowed each other.

Sorry, I was wrong. It was in the closing, not the opening.
The final scene of the ending shows Yuan kneeling in front of a grave and placing flowers. Perhaps my memory is bad but I don't remember that happening in the show.

Oh, wait. Do you mean which scenes in the opening didn't show up?

It's at the very end of episode 30. Before the closing song, I think.

Why is the end of episode 30 animated? Did they add that scene last minute or something? Also, I noticed some scenes in the opening didn't show up in the show so does that mean those were cut?

Thanks. The mood was very different from the teaser.

That's what I had heard before but I had never found the MV so I got confused.

There isn't one set at the moment.
