Aside from a promising cast, Tale of A Thousand Stars is already one of the most anticipated Thai BL drama for 2020 because of its director.

11 years have gone by since Love of Siam (2007), a gay love story made waves in Thai cinemas for the first time ever.

I’m in awe how Ohm Pawat has captured the imagination of BL watchers around the world. Aside from He’s Coming to Me and Dew, the movie, he plays an admittedly ‘second lead’ in GMMTV’s 2020 gender-bender romcom/BL concoction entitled The Shipper – จิ้นนายกลายเป็นฉัน.
