❤[GMM25] Girl Next Room (GMMTV): Mook Worranit/ Jamie Juthapich/ Mild Wiraporn/ Gigi Sarocha/ Toyy Pathompong/ Singto Prachaya/ Off Jumpol/ Kao Jirayu

[inbetweener_guy]

I think this will be a la U-Prince. There are 4 stories in here, each with different pairings:

Motorbike Baby (03/01/2020 to 04/05/2020): Mook Worranit and Toyy Pathompong, with Fluke Gawin, Guy Sivakorn and Guide Sutina

Midnight Fantasy (04/19/2020 to 05/10/2020): Jamie Juthapich and Singto Prachaya, with Gunsmile Chanagun, White Nawat and Nammon Krittanai

Richy Rich (05/17/2020 to 06/07/2020): Mild Wiraporn and Off Jumpol, with Mek Jirakit, Apple Lapisara, Noon Sutthipha and June Wanwimol

Security Love (06/14/2020 to 07/05/2020): Gigi Sarocha and Kao Jirayu

Recurring cast would be Neo Trai and Top Daraneenute.

In. OMG. GMM is rolling out all the dramas. Bless.

 

[inbetweener_guy]

They're already shooting this one apparently. I hope this is a la U-Prince/Ugly Duckling, and not Kiss Me Again/Waterboyy where they crammed all the couples in a single series.

Neo is still cute, but I wish he didn't cut his hair that short. (He was in "My Tee" and "Wolf", and is or was in Thailand's junior national basketball team.)

I was looking for Mek and Apple, and turns out they're both here and playing support. Now, I wish they were reunited with Mild and Singto, respectively. Mek and Mild are my fave GMMTV pair, and Apple and Singto had that chemistry in U-Prince even if Singto played a gay role there.

This looks cute!

In hindsight, while I miss this kind of stories from GMMTV, I'm a bit hoping Mook and Mild weren't cast here. Don't get me wrong, I find them endearing in such roles but at this point in their respective careers let the younger ones have a stab at roles like this.

Mild for instance in the past year has portrayed a rape victim, a ghost, a stripper (and I dunno exactly her role in "Social Syndrome"). But then again, I was hoping for her reuniting with Mek. They're my all-time fave GMMTV couple. (I hope that the mystery guy that Off was referring to would be Mek.)

Mook has portrayed a battered mistress early this year, then she's back at roles like this. (Well I think "Oh My Boss" is a right project for her, though it's still romcom.) But then again, maybe this is a vehicle for her to do a project with her real-life boyfriend Toyy.

Social Syndrome was actually a good series. Different from the usual Thai lakorns as GMM tends to do. The stories at the end were weird though lol, but the earlier ones were good.

GMM is usually good at introducing new faces but unfortunately, they're starting to follow the other channels in just casting established ones instead of risking it with new ones. Other than BL that is. I think they know whoever they cast in BL, it'll be insta-stardom for them.

Even with Club Friday. In the beginning, there were new casts. It was the series that catapulted Toy. Now Club Friday is mostly veteran actors who wouldn't get leading parts otherwise.

They're just following who's popular on social media and have established fanbases which is unfortunate. But they're a profit company. Views are more important than providing quality content.

I like these short fully simple series..
.easy watch and not dragged out

 

[inbetweener_guy]

This is airing starting March 1st, on the timeslot that "One Night Steal" vacated. Trailer is coming out on Monday.

So Singto will have a back-to-back drama, since "Turn Left Turn Right" airs after this? Or is this like "U Prince" wherein the focus is one couple at a time?

 

[72701]

I HOPE it's one couple at a time. TLTR was a bomb for me, because they did all 3 stories at the same time.

[inbetweener_guy]

Too bad, Mek and Mild aren't the pairing here. They still have that chemistry. This looks like a cute series.

So yey, looks like 4 separate stories indeed. Mook-Toyy will be first, with Kao having an appearance as Toyy's friend.

[inbetweener_guy]

Mook sings the theme song for this.

 

[72701]

The first storyline doesn't appeal to me, although I like Mook & Toyy a lot. I might still check it out though.

Typical storyline. They liked each other, boy goes away for some reason, comes back and has to win her back since some other guy stepped in while he was gone.

 

[inbetweener_guy]

I'm really looking forward to Off-Mild's story, though I'm intrigued by the others as well - Mook and Toyy's real-life relationship translated into reel, Singto's yet-another straight role, and Kao's first foray with GMMTV.
