#mileapo as actors

[discluded]

often I see people saying MileApo are different from other couples, do you mind to explain what makes them standout ? what makes their relationship special from others?

Hi, not to sound purposefully obtuse, but do you mean Thai BL actor pairings that promote together? I know "couple" is often what they call those too, but just trying to make sure you don't mean like, people who are dating or married. 'cause that I can't answer.

ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ coupla what durr hurr hurr

Thailand seems to have a film/media culture where there are actor pairings that often work together and those pairings are really well loved by the public in terms of their chemistry. This was an old Hollywood standard that doesn't happen as often anymore, but they still exist even in the west, for example, with Drew Barrymore and Adam Sandler's work, Margot Robbie and Ryan Gossling already cast together on a Ocean's franchise movie, and also Ryan Gossling with Emma Stone.

One such popular Thai couple is Mario Maurer and Mai Davika whom Apo has both worked with before, and Mario one of Apo's good friends. They've appeared in a number of films and projects together, though they often do work separately as well. Like the aforementioned Hollywood pairings, Mario and Mai are are also openly dating other people. Apo is good friends with Mario's partner Junji too!

The QL/BL industry has taken this and set it up where often, successful partnerships will involve the pairing working together across multiple projects almost exclusively. The standards for getting into acting into a QL/BL project are also not very high, which contributes to the Thai general public's perception of the quality of work and the actors' skills among those who participate in BL projects.

As such, a lot of people who want to get into acting see doing BL as a stepping stone into a more "respected" acting career, such as doing lakhorns. Oftentimes, these pairings will work together for a few projects and then like, sometimes part on bad terms. Often times, if the first project is super successful, they might not even pair in the projects even if they're both in the series or show (See: BrightWin).

MileApo differ in terms of that because Apo started out as an lakhorn actor and was relatively acclaimed as an actor on a local level. He's appeared on magazine covers, both for the series he's starred in and solo prior to KinnPorsche.

For actors who achieved such the level of success they have in their first series, many similar actors would decide to part ways and pursue more "respected" roles/projects, like BrightWin have. Part of the reason there's so much toxicity and infighting between solos and couple fans is that has been the precedent set for among BL fans, and solos were expecting them to part ways as acting partners with their own projects.

In fact, I've read quite a number of not-so-nice tweets implying Mile was "relegating" himself to BL roles when he doesn't have to do "that kind" of project anymore. (ah the inherent homophobia of people choosing to consume BL shows... 😑)

So they're mostly different in that they're actively choosing to work together across multiple projects even when they have the opportunity to pursue solo projects given how famous their first project made them. Of course, none of us expect this to be forever since Mile will have to return full time to his sexy CEO job at some point... but the future isn't written in stone.

But yeah, toxic solos be big mad that Mile and Apo genuinely love and respect each other and want to continue working together despite having multiple options otherwise. LMFAO.

I don’t think y’all understand. Kinnporsche was by no means cheap to make and for a new company mostly fueled by a couple of men who has a lot of money it took a toll on how much money they had left. The tour was created to get the word of Kinnporsche out and to promote the show and the entertainment company. BOC is essentially a start up company who are just entering the industry so with the money they made with kinnporsche it will be more responsible to make 3 different shows with the allotted money that genres can reach different audiences and increase sponsorship than to put all of their money in one season of kinnporsche. As a finance major it’s nothing short of brilliant. He said that they were in the negatives doing the tour which makes inviting people like Disney, HBO, Maybelliene etc great because The Bakery show could be catered to a Disney audience while 4 minutes could be catered to a HBO Max audience and effectively gaining sponsorship from both and better than just one. We have to give new genres a chance, kp will always be there but I have never seen a Thailand period drama stand strong against other period dramas like China or Korea. Their main goal is to promote Thailand to the world and through partnering with international producers, they’ll achieve it. Just wait a little longer.

Everytime the BL hard shippers come up with the betrayal/you actors "manipulated/lied" to us, I ask myself "You were their fans not for their acting talent, on screen chemistry, because you liked them, ecc. but just because you were believing they were fu€king in real life???" like...

Where's these people gayradar?? What do their private love/sex lives matter to you??

Actors do Fanservice= Oh you are such liars!

Companies split the pairs = Oh you lied to us!

Actors reveal to be in a romantic straight rs= Oh you bastard lied to us!!

Actors get along/are closer friends with another person than the 1 they are paired up= You are not a good enough liar!!

It won't never be ok for those "fans" and all of that because of something they build just in their delulu minds...🤷‍♀️

MileApo

[discluded]

Looking back now it's crazy how intimate and cozy the Mile and Apo portion of Apo's Wan day video was. If filmed today we would have gotten a group shots of them and the staff discussing everything and sitting down to eat together at the restaurant and that entire portion would have been turned into a group outing with staff with Mile featured as part of the group. We never would have gotten video footage of them alone from the staff just talking to each other in the moonlight about random stuff.

😭😭😭

As much as I'm sad we'll never get something this intimate with their day again, I'm grateful the reason they are drawing the curtain is because they recognize the need for privacy and that their relationship is precious and worthy protecting and too good for just being content.

I also often think about this quote from Ben Whishaw:

For me, it’s important to keep a level of anonymity. As an actor, your job is to persuade people that you’re someone else. So if you’re constantly telling people about yourself, I think you’re shooting yourself in the foot. (2012) [x]

We see a lot of them, in a professional context. And I think they try to be as honest as they can be with fans, in that they are being professionals at work and the work includes engaging with fans. But as actors, I think it makes sense to maintain a level of anonymity and intimacy to a relationship they both clearly hold dear, that allows them to pull out surprises for us still, in the roles they play.
