Off Jumpol

Sweetheart please write a whole essay about him 😘😜

wellllll, if it's asked this nicely 😌 usually I try to contain myself but today you've enabled me :p here's why I believe off jumpol to be literally unmatched:

CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT

I've said it before, but being an off stan is like following a character in a series. just like khai in theory of love, off has had such an incredible character development which I've never seen for any other actor. his willingness to openly admit his changes & his past flaws is so damn refreshing, and if you're an off fan you can never be bored bc there is no status quo, off is always getting better & better <3

HONESTY

so I've said it before, but I like celebrities who seem genuine & real, and I don't think you get that more than with off. first of all, and that's a thai actor thing, I love his willingness to go out not always looking the best & just enjoying his life like real people do. but mostly I love how much off is himself 100% of the time: he's scolded nosy journalists & fans before, but is also not afraid to apologize like that one time fans kept screaming his name while he was talking to tay & he answered too harshly & took it back. but mostly I love how honest he is about his past & even his present, he's willing to admit he was a player during his uni days & regrets it, and he's willing to admit much he's changed. even though some people see him as cold & scary, if you follow off for more than one minute you'll know that off is pretty much an open book & really doesn't take himself too seriously. for example the interviewer for his iconic gq interview cover, said he was shocked to see off so down to earth & speaking about philosophical topics about his own life that he's reflected on a lot. and off's genuineness is for me his greatest quality.

KINDNESS

even though off is known for his bad mouth lol, he's genuinely the kindest person ever. there are many groups of people he's kind with, the first one being fans. having gone to events he's been a part of, I can safely say off is the only actor (unless joined by gun) who went out of his way to go close to fans & greet us. he often even stays after an event to go back out to greet fans for more than an extra hour! he doesn't need to do that, but he does it bc he truly values his fans greatly. him crying bc he was overwhelmed by his fan's love in y I love you says it all.

the second group is his fellow colleagues. many clips of off have gone viral with him helping his nong's cover up, etc. in awkward situations, and everyone at gmmtv considers off their dad, as countless pictures prove it :)

lastly, service workers. there are compilations of off thanking security guards at the many events he attends, even hugging them, and overall he always treats others with so much respect & kindness, which shows how down to earth he is.

TALENTS

now that we've discussed his personality, let's move on to off's talents. first of all, off has grown to be an excellent actor. his acting in not me was honestly so good it not only blew me away, but also made me so incredibly proud. I think one of off's best strength is his versatility as an actor, because now he can both SLAY emotional, angsty scenes, but since the beginning he's also been an incredible comedic actor thanks to the fact that man's naturally hilarious & improvises lines like no one else. in that sense, he honestly can beat a lot of actors considered better but who don't have as much versatility as him.

apart from acting, off also excells at hosting, be it variety shows like offgun fun night, friend drive or school rangers, or events & others. man can SPEAK, and be fun & entertaining like no one else, while also including guests so seamlessly.

off is also obviously a fashion icon, having both his fashion brand & being an avid fashion collector, so much so that series like theory of love & wolf used HIS OWN clothes for his character's wardrobes. off especially loves vintage & doesn't just shop big brand names but also goes to the chatuchak market to buy more hawaiian shirts. did I mention he's the ceo of wearing hawaiian shirts? bc he is <3

off is an artsy hipster type of guy, enjoying indie movies, taking pictures, going to galleries, etc. and I believe him to have a very artistic vision that is best exemplified by his brand land of something, for which the designs stand out SO MUCH from other thai actors' clothing brand. he's also a business man & has learned from his mistakes which makes him more careful & thoughtful when he invests now. ALSO he's obviously an incredible model & knows all of his angles, slay <3

LOOKS

obviously, off is hot as fuck. this is a shallow world, we have eyes, man's flabbergastingly gorgeous. but what makes off more special than the other handsome actors is of course, his iconic facial expressions. NO ONE can move their face like off does. his facial expressions are what made me fall for him bc they're one of a kind & no one can replicate them to the same extent. those expressions are also what made off's asshole characters like khai, por, etc. actually work by adding layers of cuteness to them. I also want to mention that off is not afraid to experiment with his look which is really nice & makes him stand out once again!

PROFESSIONALISM

lastly, bc I'm a busy gal & I need to cut this short, I think it's very important to mention off's professionalism. I think it's no coincidence a lot of directors envision him as first for a role, notably koo ekkasit for astrophile, fon kanittha for 10 years ticket & the snap25 team for the jungle. it's also to be noted that off creates good relationships with every co-star he has, and keeps those friendships for a long time. no one ever has anything bad to say about him, and because of his work ethics he manages to shine in the eyes of those who decide the faith of his career. and that makes me confident he'll keep soaring high :)

(lol sorry for another long svt family trope ask) i saw how you said it's hard for 13 members to get along and stuff, and it was always surprising to me that svt is the one kpop group (that i've stanned) where everyone seems to genuinely like each other and be friends. i don't remember who it was, but i know there was this one idol who said some of their members are more acquaintances (?) than friends. but even the "unlikely pairs" of svt are friends, like how jun said he went out for lunch with, i think, mingyu and jeonghan (?) for his bday.

and i think it's because everyone in svt seems to value social harmony, being considerate of each other's emotions, etc. i think i've seen a few interviews where they talked about how they listen to everyone's opinions. a couple of members have also said that everyone freely says their ideas during their meetings and that they don't think any idea is a bad idea - stuff like that. they seem to make an effort to value and incorporate everyone's ideas, and i think that's part of why they're able to get along so well despite being 13 people who've been living together for almost 10 years.

also, while i was thinking about this, i remembered a few svt family trope moments that seemed like they came straight out of a sitcom or anime or something lol. like when all of svt cheered dk on when he was afraid to do the bungee jump for 20 (?) minutes. or when svt cheered on joshua when he felt like he was doing a bad job hosting the carnival episode and it almost looked like he was about to cry. or when wonwoo said in his weverse interview that he used to be insecure, but svt helped him get rid of his insecurity and stuff. like- 🥺🥺

(pls i could talk about SVT found family all day dhfkfj) yeah that's so true, like even though there are members among SVT that at first you might think would be awkward bc their interactions aren't as present on camera as with other members but I've literally yet to see an awkward pair among SVT dhfjfh i remember when jeonghan, cheol, and wonwoo did the battle trip i didn't expect it to be awkward per se but i was like wow! this is a really new combination! but even so there was no awkwardness at all 🥺

and yeah honestly i don't think it's surprising in general if groups just consider each other as coworkers and i don't think groups should /have/ to be more than that. of course it's nice if groups can be friends but i don't think it should be an expectation. i actually have a lot of respect for groups that can admit things like that and outright say that they're coworkers or acquaintances but not necessarily friends, or that they don't spend much time w each other outside work. bc i think that also shows that those groups have healthy relationships w each other, it's just a coworker relationship rather than one of close friends or (found) family. but also of course it's probably not easy esp for rookie groups to say stuff like that bc the companies want to market the image of a close group ;-;

and yes! i think aside from just liking the person, healthy friendships are built on valuing things like communication and respect. and SVT seem to have fostered an open and healthy relationship with those values 🥺 i think the fact that they value those things also shows in their interactions with others as well, like it does not surprise me that there are so many stories from staff they've worked with about how kind and considerate and genuine SVT are. bc they understand the importance of those values

and that's so true dhfkf! its so fun to see the way them supporting each other manifests bc it really feels like something from a novel sometimes. aside from what you mentioned what really gets me is when SVT talk about how the other members have helped them grow as individuals. as you mentioned wonwoo has said something along those lines, and Jun's also mentioned it a couple times as well as some of the other members. it really just makes me 🥺🥺🥺
