The many faces of Jun (ThamePo Heart That Skips a Beat - EP8)

[firelise]

“Thame would never like a big guy like you”

“Thame would never like a big huge strong muscle-y but cuddly guy like you trust me”

“Thame would never ever ever ever like a big guy with big slutty brown eyes that shimmer in the moonlight while I hold you in my arms and we share our deepest traumas until the sun comes up like you trust me, I know he wouldn’t”

THAMEPO: cosmos & myth

／／／／／／。Mars & M.A.R.S.

[scientific knowledge]

Mars became waterless and dead because it is assumed that its weak and unstable magnetic field failed to protect it from the solar wind. for hundreds of millions of years the atmosphere was slowly draining out. eventually only a thin layer of orange dust and permafrost became all that was left of once an abundant with water Red planet.

in the very center of the planet there is a large and massive core made out of nickel, sulphur and iron. its radius is more than a half of the whole planet. due to the immense pressure the core is solid for the most part thus unable to create a stable magnetic field.

[thamepo plot]

t-pop group M.A.R.S. is facing a major crisis. successful in the beginning of their career they start losing popularity, bringing less and less money to their company. it directly affects the atmosphere within a group and the once friendly environment becomes solemn.

Thame, being the leader of the group, feels responsible. he's considered the most popular member and the company starts promoting him more compared to the other members in hopes to get more income. Thame is even forced to sign the exclusive contract which puts him under great pressure and makes him become distant form his group. very soon he is to sign with a korean agency, abandoning his members. however, Thame's one true desire is for M.A.R.S. to succeed as a group and be active together as long as possible. consequently, he feels like he failed his members and betrayed his own dream.

／／／／／／。Mars's moons: Phobos & Deimos

[mythology]

The names Deimos and Phobos are as evocative as the emotions they represent. Deimos, derived from the Greek word “δεῖμος,” translates to “dread” or “fear.” Phobos, on the other hand, comes from the Greek word “φόβος,” meaning “panic” or “fear".

Born to Ares, the god of war, and Aphrodite, the goddess of love, Deimos and Phobos are twins who had a unique upbringing. Their immediate family was a blend of contrasting elements: love and war, beauty and brutality. This duality is perhaps what shaped them into the gods of fear and terror.

As Daemones, or spirits, Deimos and Phobos serve as extensions of their father’s will on the battlefield. They are not just symbols but active participants in the theater of war, amplifying the emotions they represent and thereby making their father, Ares, even more formidable.

[scientific knowledge]

Mars’ moons are among the smallest in the solar system. Phobos is a bit larger than Deimos, and orbits only 3,700 miles (6,000 kilometers) above the Martian surface. No known moon orbits closer to its planet. It whips around Mars three times a day, while the more distant Deimos takes 30 hours for each orbit. Phobos is gradually spiraling inward, drawing about six feet (1.8 meters) closer to the planet each century. Within 50 million years, it will either crash into Mars or break up and form a ring around the planet.

[thamepo plot]

getting into a dating scandal is the easiest way for celebrities to lose their success and popularity overnight. so when Pepper and Thame decide to pursue their romantic relationship, they fully understand the gravity of their situation.

Po and Gam are their lovers but they are also the biggest source of concern and fear for all members of the group. once somebody finds out about their love endeavor, the whole thing blows up. in ep. 6 Pepper and Thame adress it direclty:

– Even if Gam and I are a ticking time bomb for you guys?

– I have my own ticking time bomb, don't I? Per, trust me, don't break up with her. I think we'll just keep going together like this. I believe that we can both work as a group and like someone at the same time because both are part of our lives.

Po and Gam understand this simple truth too. they are putting themselves and their lovers at great risk just by wanting to be near, to be together. only they can bring so much comfort, care and joy to their partners, but one little mistake...! and the conflict will induce, leading not only to the relationship's break up but dismantling all of their dreams, careers and plans for the future.

/ edited thamepo steels and ep. 6 dialogue are by @pamouche

[iguessitsjustme]

Yeah so Thame and Po are going to be caught immediately. They aren't even officially dating yet and I'm pretty sure they're gonna be caught before they are. Those heart eyes can be seen from miles away and they (especially Thame) are not trying very hard to hide it.

I want to put Jun under a microscope and inspect him like a bug. He's fascinating to me.

The whole rap battle about real musicians vs idols was so good and the message of it!

I basically came from the other side. I never was an anti abut I grew up with rock & metal in an environment where everything pop gets trashed and degraded as silly and cheap. I grew out of it by falling in love with music scenes that have a wider spectrum of genres than just rock and metal. And gradually I also got into pop and many other genres in that direction. All genres are valid and have good and bad musicians. It's just simply a different style, different taste. I care more about the vibe, feelings than the type of instruments ya know. Now I am even into idol pop too. And I can acknowledge their hard work. The idol business is different from normal music, yes. But that doesn't make it lesser... actually idols have to do more things, normal musicians don't do. But on the other side they often have more help / guidance with other things normal musicians usually do alone / with their band only.

I love to compare it with art vs design. Art is raw expression, experimental and sometimes provocative. Design can be that too but it's also tailored for a specific purpose based on studies, calculations and science.

[projectjasper]

now, this is not definitive, as the timings fluctuate quite a bit in all dramas, but the first two episodes of thampo were around 50 mins and this one was a little over 40, so i'm thinking this episode and the next three are separated more plot-wise (getting each member of mars back on board) than timing-wise, but it's also why there are 13 episodes instead of 12 - that additional episode makes up for the ~10 minutes lost in the four reunion episodes.

i’m back for more this week—let’s go thamepo!!

♥️ ep 2: a step you can’t take back ♥️

immediately unhinged right out the gate - get to know him outside of work?!?!! like yeah I think he would think it’s more then a coworker thing cause you just said it was? Like??

i truly do think he meant it in a very human way of getting to know someone you find interesting / you resonate with but idc they’re in love ur honor

i’m so bought in to thamepo already that i found po fumbling this convo cute and not cringey. like second hand embarrassment is no where to be seen

joong my beloved!! and he’s talking about what I mentioned last week. thame comes off as a diva, which isn’t necessarily good for the group anyway

you know if thame looked up at me like that perhaps i would become a saesang lol

my big question is—does the company want to divide the group? like damn they can’t even exchange meaningful gifts and unscripted love messages

these boys are very soft spoken, everything they say is like asmr to the ears

miss ceo is lightly on my shit list. preying on a young impressionable big hearted boy to exploit for money — VERY big Hollywood of her (however i do think that if the boys wanna do other things they should be able hence lightly)

but in actuality i think there’s just a big miscommunication issue w/ the group that could be easily solved but the company is preventing it so i’m keeping my eye on her 😒

there’s a metaphor that exist here about empty homes and taking care of abandoned things and holding onto moments too tightly you don’t realize they’ve already slipped away

guys i’m sobbing. i could write an entire post about thame and the orange tree and the silent house with unfulfilled promises

who knew so many layers could exist behind the simple notion of sharing sandwiches?

yeah, guys, it’s thampo against the world. and i’ll be back next week for more melodrama!!!!

p.s. they’re gonna fix the family 🥹
