#not me's yok

[firstyok]

Just have to put it here, does First have extra muscles in his face or what?? How does he have sooooo many expression even he just like doing nothing with his face?? Like how?? He can literally be anyone with that gift ( and he uses that well)

Hello Broo!! So, I've had to suffer for a long time, processing what to write for your ask, because I've A LOT TO SAY, and I don't know how to start. Let me sum this up!

First's facial expression is the biggest aspect that makes him such an excellent actor! All of the characters that he has played, each and every one of them had an individual presence, aura, demeanor, and a purpose to portray. First does thag successfully every time.

Be it Alan from MLC - Have you seen the rage, frustration and coldness in his eyes? He could just walk in a room, and I'll start trembling down in my knees. His presence is enough to make me stop breathing because I'll be scared asf.

Be it Akk from Eclipse - His eyes, facial movements, and skin palpitations, everything screams a boy who is always suppressing his emotions, trying his best every fucking day, to be someone, others could be proud of. He is devasted and exhausted with all the burden and responsibilities, and yet constantly holds back, tightly at the edge of losing it all. First depicts all of this just by a single gaze, and you'll know his story.

Be it Yok from Not Me - The subtle flirtatious smiles, the slutty eye gazes, the predatory vibe to chase, the cheeky rebellious social activist - First Kanaphan was a literal whore package here, and I am all down for that! He can just look at me, and I'll be like, "FUCKK". Do I need to say anything more?

Be it Kim from The Shipper - Probably the most ideal show to watch if you want to discover this man's true potential. Countless versatile expressions, muscle movements, being the soul of a literal female while he himself is a male, everything he did is chef's kiss. Whether for comedy, body swapping, or even boys love plot - First has slayed all of them on a God-tier level.

To Conclude;

You're right, anon!! First is blessed with this gift of skillfully using his facial expressions, something not many actors can do! First invents expressions that I didn't even know existed! He is that much versatile, and if you haven't seen his works, you won't get how much of a treasure he is!

First thing we had to film today was an action-packed scene. We started the day off by practicing. Right. I thought it was tiring in the rehearsal. But filming it nearly made me faint.

Heartfelt Appreciation of my favorite boy; First KP. His acting is out of this world, and he needs more recognition and acknowledgement in his works, so go watch all of his series!

First Kanaphan’s Characters | Yok (Not Me) VS Akk (The Eclipse)

I fell in love with this boy at first sight. I watched him firstly as Yok, who is just oozing charisma, free-spirited, cheeky, feisty, with that huge, infectious, beaming smile. First made this role feel so delightfully easy and natural.

To go from that to Akk, who is rigid, defensive, so tightly wound, burdened and restrained in his vulnerability. Who even when he cries, looks like he’s trying to hold it in. Whose eyes always look like they’re crying out for relief from some unspeakable burden.

I know this is what actors do, but can I stress how different these two characters are and how well First embodied each of them?? I am beyond excited to watch his performance in Only Friends, and to be graced with another facet to First’s acting talents. He’s one to watch folks.

Random thought lol while I watching some FK content, that both First and Khaotung played 17 year old (eclipse) and 26 yo (MLC) at the same time xD. First specially looked those ages in respective shows, like I can't see akk being 26 year old dude or Alan being a 17 year old. Even in the BTS footage or anywhere, they just don't look the same age, let alone same people!!

Firstly,

Hiii Brooo!! Thank you so much for this FK ask, because I'm always up for this stuff! Hearing anything about FK just gets me on! SO HUGE THANKS!

Bro, don't even get me started on their innate ability to shapeshift into different people with different ages!! AkkAye looked like ideal high schoolers, and then there is in MLC, both have suddenly grown up SO MUCH, that it feels unrealistic!

Especially for First Kanaphan, that man has versatile tactics in disguise and shapeshifting. 'Not Me' released way before the Eclipse, and this man managed to pull off the badass university student there, and right after he became way younger while portraying as Akk in Eclipse. The best part is, you cannot even find similarities in the characters he plays. LIKE I'VE TRIED MULTIPLE TIMES TO THINK AKK as ALAN, or ALAN as AKK, but nope!!

I cannot stress enough how much this thai industry is blessed to have someone like First Kanaphan, the man is an exemplary actor, has unique ability to create chemistry with anyone on this planet, is a fucking shapeshifter whom you can hardly recognize in separate shows, and the kindest human on earth. This man is a WHOLE PACKAGE, and I'll never shut up about this!💕

The Heart Killers EP1: Early Hints into Kant's Backstory

Kant is shaping up to be a very intriguing character in my opinion, and no doubt more so thanks to Khaotung's gushing. We've already been given a number of early signposts towards Kant's backstory, so this is my recap and speculations on what we know so far.

THE SKILLS OF A THIEF

We're shown through a flashback that Kant used to steal cars and sell them on - a series of crimes which Captain Chris agreed to disregard in exchange for Kant's previous assistance on his cases.

The natural question to ask would be why? Why was Kant stealing cars? If I were to hazard a guess, possibly due to dire financial straits where this was his only means to support his family. Bison comments, "from your car and how you dress, you don't look like a typical tattoo artist, you know? More like those uppercrust tattoo artists." Kant retorts he just makes enough to get by. I wouldn't be surprised if he and his brother did grow up in some form of poverty or limited means. It would then make sense then why Kant is so driven to support his brother's dreams - because they've felt so out of reach.

The other big question on my mind is why involve Kant? Did Chris see this as a form of charity or rehabilitation for a wayward youth, or an opportunity to exploit a boy who happened to possess valuable skills? "Keep your eye on you and your brother's future. You're a smart brat. You'll find a way." Either Chris is a dubious cop with questionable methods (including coercion), or Kant is a budding criminal mastermind whose too slippery not to be kept on side by the police. (If anyone remembers the Leonardo DiCaprio film 'Catch me if you can', the film's young protagonist is extremely adept at fraud and once caught, is then hired as a fraud detective due to his knowledge and experience of such crimes).

There has to be more than just Kant's history of stealing cars that has Chris so confident in his ability to help with this specific case. And to tackle hitmen of all things where Kant's life could be in serious danger.

AN ELUSIVE FATHER

Kant's parents have not been explicitly mentioned, but references to his father have been implied. They certainly don't live with parental figures so Kant appears to be Babe's sole legal guardian. As he's now 29 years old, Kant may have taken Babe with him once at legal age, or after reasons that kept their parents out of the picture.

In Kant's first scene, he gets a call from a contact named "old fart". My immediate hunch is this could be his father. Moreso, Kant looks visibly exasperated so they're clearly not on the best of terms.

I may very well be jumping here, but something has me speculating if Kant's father had any influence on his car theft; whether his father was the one who taught him how, or was in some form of trouble that Kant stole cars to fend for him and his brother out of desperation.

On a contrasting note, Kant does mention that his father left him his car, a possession that seems particularly dear to him as he's constantly warding off Style's attempts to pry it from his hands. It later becomes the very demand Style bargains for in order to agree to help distract Fadel, and Kant is visibly reluctant to let it go. Needless to say, his relationship with his father may be complicated.

BROTHERLY AFFECTION

We haven't been told Babe's age, but he's been seen wearing school uniform in some BTS photos - so late teens would be my guess. Babe expresses an interest in English literature and Shakespeare, vowing to visit the UK eventually to see his plays in person. If the two brothers did grow up under difficult circumstances, it would be safe to assume that such academic pursuits and going overseas would seem like a luxury, and very much aspirational rather than realistic.

Despite this, Kant is clearly very supportive of his brother's interests and wellbeing. He's very fond of him, and Babe is the sole motivation for why Kant is blackmailed into assisting Chris. This love goes both ways. Babe doesn't ask too many questions about what Kant gets up to as long as he's being safe. He looks happy for him when he spots Kant and Bison together.

I wonder if he has any idea of Kant's criminal history or that he's been assisting the police. My instinct would be no, as Kant would likely be inclined to protect his brother or to prevent him from worrying.

If anyone knows Thai and can translate, I'd be interested to know if there are any notable tidbits visible on Kant's criminal file (above).

You can keep tabs on bird-inacage’s BL meta directory for my other long-form posts around The Heart Killers, which I’ll be updating in real time as the show airs. Probably worth reading my analysis on the FK's character interviews where some of these points are touched on.
