They both look very promising
Khom Khlang has a lot of potential. The original novel was a major bestseller in the Thai GL market and grew into a full trilogy, and even before the adaptation was announced, a lot of fans were hoping MeenBabe would take on the project. The series also received support from the Ministry of Culture for promoting Thai spiritual traditions,beliefs and occult themes. They also brought in director Mi Phuwadon Naosopha, who has relevant experience with folklore and supernatural material, and on the technical side, there’s Ze-alots. But here’s the thing: to really bring a story like Khom Khlang to the screen at its full potential, you would need a pretty huge budget, and even with all that support, they clearly don’t have enough. The author herself has already asked fans to keep an open mind about changes, explaining that budget limitations and the realities of television mean the adaptation can’t be 100% faithful, while promising that the heart and atmosphere of the story are still there. And that’s where I’m cautious. Changes are inevitable, but Star Hunter’s track record with writing, pacing and overall execution is what still makes me wary. A lot will depend on what exactly they changed and how well those changes were handled.I'll still support it for at least trying to bring more variety to GL, both in genre and in the themes it explores, and for giving more space to Thai spiritual traditions, folk beliefs and occult practices.
I understood nothing about the plot of Khom Khlang lol In the first part of the trailer it gives us sorcery and revenge... and then in the second part it looks like a different show almost lol It's star Hunter so i'm not expecting something amazing but i'm glad to see anda & lookkaew on my screen, even though they probably will have minor roles... Juliet & Juliet i'm excited about, let's just hope the ending won't be as tragic in this lol
Praying that Khom Klang will be better than Star Hunter's past productions 🙏
it looks promising, I hope it's a nice surprise
