UpPoom rumored series for WeTV - Love of Silom

Director: Pepzi Banchorn Vorasataree

Screenwriter: Violet Rain (author of I Feel You Linger In The Air novel)

Synopsis: Kari is a handsome young police officer from a family of Chinese descent. He is deeply filial and obedient to his parents. Outwardly, he complies with his father's wishes by enrolling in the Police Academy to follow in his father's footsteps as a senior officer in the National Police Bureau. However, Kari never truly wanted to become a police officer. Due to his loyalty to his parents, he never disobeys their commands, even feeling guilty about smoking if his mother catches him.

His family strongly opposes same-sex relationships, with his father even threatening to harm him if he dates a man. As a result, Kari keeps his relationship with his boyfriend secret. Despite this, their love remains strong. Kari works hard to support his boyfriend's dream of becoming an idol, but after his boyfriend achieves success, he cruelly abandons Kari. Heartbroken, Kari becomes cold and disinterested in love. Wayu is a good-looking young student burdened by severe family problems. Neglected by his parents, he takes care of his younger sister, who later runs off with another man after becoming pregnant, leaving the child with Wayu. Forced to take responsibil- ity, Wayu starts working at a nightclub recommended by an acquaintance. One day, during an altercation with a client, Kari rescues him, marking the beginning of their relationship.

For the first time, Wayu feels warmth and admiration for Kari. Determined to see him again, he frequently visits the police station. Kari, at first, views Wayu indifferently, but over time, he starts encouraging Wayu through family hardships, leading to deeper conversations and mutual comfort. Though their relationship progresses slowly, they find solace in each other.

uh... what do you mean Pepzi told Poom to go home and take notes of moaning from JAV actresses for reference (⁠╥⁠﹏⁠╥⁠) it was for that bathroom scene in EP.2 wasn't it...

[maybe-boys-do-love]

Did a double-take today when I saw Pepzi as director of Sweet Tooth, Good Dentist. What do you mean a director for KinnPorsche and My Stand-In is directing the Mark Pakin dentist comedy????

[pharawee]

When I read that Given (aka one of the most iconic Japanese BL mangas around - with its own audio drama and anime(s) and live action adaptation) will get a Thai remake I didn't think that there's apparently already a full cast under a brand new production company/talent agency (or that funding comes from an insurance company but that's not even the first time that's happened so... at least some of the budget already exists?)

Oh. My god.

So, last night, I reblogged a gifset of that conversation Pete has with Pol when they’re on stakeout, tailing Vegas, sitting around in the car, and Pete wants to know who Pol thinks would do a better job – Vegas’s bodyguard or Pete? And I added this bit of commentary:

My theory on the closest thing Pete has to a sexual fantasy at this point in the narrative and his life: Pete saves Vegas's life in some kind of shootout or assassination attempt that no one else could have protected Vegas from, thereby earning headpats from Thee Vegas Theerapanyakul, who Everyone Knows is a completely detached sociopath who usually has no more use for his bodyguards than as human bulletproof vests (which is somehow different from the main family for no reason I can discern but apparently exists?). Only now, Pete has proven himself and is both Noticed By and Special To this violent, emotionally inaccessible man (who, as an added bonus, is in a position of power over him). I mean, for whatever variables of "special" Pete can even conceptualize at this point, anyway. And I wonder how many times he's imagined this. It's Pete's very own mafia-filtered version of the Bad Boy fantasy in which you're the only one he cares about - you're the only one who can have that effect on him - and that makes you the Most Special-est Girl. C'mon, who's the most inaccessible Bad Boy in Pete's sphere? Certainly not Kinn, who'll just up and tell Pete that he trusts him the Very Most - even more than Pete's best friend! who Kinn is fucking! - the hot minute that Kinn's coercing Pete into doing something he really, really doesn't want to do. And you know Pete's daydream version of what makes him the Most Special-est Girl involves killing someone the best and quickest and most efficiently - because if he wins in the ring a fight, then the most emotionally inaccessible, violent man he knows (who, as an added bonus, is in a position of power over him) will love him, right? Not to mention, a guy with that many gun posters doesn't get stuck on Tankhun-babysitting detail and not have fantasies about proving his worth via violence. Listen, he just spends an awful lot of time standing around in Vegas's right-hand man spot like he's trying on the position during Ep 7, is all I'm sayin'.

… in which the vague allusions to Pete’s Daddy Issues were absolutely intentional. And I’ve also commented before about Pete finding another home with an angry man at the safehouse. And yet it wasn’t until yesterday’s post rolled up on my own dashboard and I saw it again today that the Brick Of Revelation hit me in the head and I thought about this through the framework of - my god! Pete and Vegas really do play out the very scenario that Pete warns Vegas about when you’re seeking the approval of your father abuser!

In the safehouse, Pete wins. He achieves his fantasy. He pulls the thorn out of the lion’s paw, and he gets the notice and special regard of Vegas Theerapanyakul, and he gets his world rocked on top of that, and then … then it turns out nothing changes. Vegas – the guy who expected that Pete winning in the ring would mean that his father would stop beating him, the guy who continues to seek his own abusive father’s approval, who keeps trying to win against Kinn, in the hope that Kun will stop treating him as a disposable whipping boy – Vegas goes right back to physically and emotionally abusing Pete. On top of that, the fantasy doesn’t play out in reality; Vegas literally tells Pete that he’s nothing special. (I mean, lies, of course, but the fact is that Vegas says it right to his face.)

I just. This is another one of those instances where I walked up to this revelation and even walked all the way around it, poking at it, but I just never looked at it straight on until this moment - the way Pete’s experience in the safehouse so closely mirrors his experience with his father. We watch Vegas continue to recreate the cycle of abuse, and we're like, "oh, dude, you need to make some better decisions," but we've also just spent 2.5 eps watching Pete, dispenser of this very wisdom, fall back into the same patterns he warns Vegas about. Because breaking that cycle and changing your behavior and your expectations is hard. Even when your head knows better. The things this show says about generational trauma and intimate violence and patriarchal control, I just ... god. Just, don't mind me, I have to go claw at some drywall for a while.

Also, it makes me wonder if Pete did kill his father. Because if he ran from home the same way he ran from the safehouse, if we’re supposed to look at this echo forward into the present of what happened in the past, then are we supposed to think that maybe there was a similar confrontation in the past, in which Pete struck out before he extricated himself from the trap he was in and ran?

Vegas is a lot younger and more resilient (and used to being knocked around) than Pete’s dad probably was, at that point.

Poom Phuripan as Joe My Stand-In (2024) dir. Pepzi Banchorn

[poetry-protest-pornography]

Sweet Tooth, Good Dentist has started filming, and I hadn't realized it was Pepzi directing and Aof producing?

I have very high expectations.

[myezblog]

Finally gave in and started the novel.. onto 90+ chapters..

THE NOVEL IS DELICIOUS ... angsty passionate intense romantic angst!!! And series is following it pretty closely..

Every 10 chapters = 1 episode... so pretty easy to guess the episode by episode flow... ( Pepzi is such a good director... remember how well she directed Vegas Pete bathtub trailer...)

Ep 6 should be fun (the proposal)

Ep 7 should be fun

Ep 8 should be fun (revelation)

Ep 9 should be fun (the wooing thereafter)

AND THEY WERE BOTH TOPS!!!

So Director Pepzi just posted a selfie with Up and Poom. Their still cinematographer from My Stand-In also posted this IG Story of Up and Poom. Love of Silom is definitely coming.
