The Rich Y U (RYU) Group made a big announcement regarding casting auditions for their inaugural BL project, ‘The Love Matter ติวเตอร์ ติวรัก’. This project boasts an original screenplay, with Phadej Onlahung as the director. Phadej is renowned for his work on projects like “Cafe in Love”, “The Whisperer”, and the highly anticipated vampire-themed romantic comedy “OMG! Vampire.”

With casting auditions underway, fans can anticipate another engaging addition to the Thai BL genre, promising fresh storylines and heartfelt romance. Keep an eye out for updates on this exciting project! Meanwhile, here are the characters for aspiring actors to portray.

“Ah Pao (อาเปา)” is outgoing, with a fiery temper and unwavering loyalty. He’s sensitive to life’s negativity, feeling overlooked despite his talents. Despite excelling in swimming, he avoids training and feels like an outsider. His parents’ neglect drives him to seek attention through mischief. Initially disliking Pakin, he falls deeply in love, aspiring to self-improvement, to enter a prestigious university, and to become a pro swimming career.
“Techin (เตซิน)” has a witty way of speaking, is kind-hearted, and fully invests himself in love. If he loves someone, he accepts even their faults. Techin sees the world positively, finding good in others. He dresses well and his family runs a clinic, but he wants independence. He becomes a school nurse and meets his old love, Pakin. Initially avoiding him, they come to understand each other. Techin falls for Pakin, accepting him despite any flaws, ultimately winning Pakin’s heart.
“Quest (เควส)” is outgoing, enjoys joking around, and laughs with friends. He’s easygoing and often prevents his friends from getting into trouble, especially during activities like swimming. Quest is a talented runner, second only to Winner. He obeys Winner in everything except matters of the heart. Kris falls for Techin and seeks Winner’s help to win his affection, unaware of Winner’s feelings for Techin. When he learns of this, Kris agrees to compete with Winner for Techin’s heart, using every means to win his affection.

“Tiewkao (ทิวเขา)” joined the swimming club because he finds it relaxing and dreams of becoming a singer. He enjoys singing for friends but hesitates to compete because of past rejection from the music club and a lack of confidence.
“San (ซาน)” San, a supportive friend, acknowledges Apao’s swimming skills despite his second place. Apao’s true passion is dancing, aspiring to be an instructor. Initially joining the dance club, he switched to swimming due to lack of support at home.
“Phiphu (ภิภู)” comes from a wealthy family, which attracts people who try to deceive him for their own gain. Then there’s Ah Pao, who extends his arms and invites him to join the swimming club together. Phiphu sees Ah Pao as a brother figure, someone who selflessly helps without expecting anything in return.
“Laika(“ไลก้า)” is actually related to San, but because they belong to rival clubs, they pretend not to like each other. However, they are actually very close. Initially, Laika wanted to join the swimming club like San, but ended up joining the running club after fleeing from a dog. Laika dreams of opening a bar because he loves partying and enjoys taking his friends to liquor stores secretly. He believes running a bar would allow him to have fun and make money.
“Thara (ธารา)” “Tara (ธารา)” is beloved by older sisters. Despite being approached by girls, Thara is extremely shy and prefers to act as bait for them. His family runs a tourism business, and he often brings back unique souvenirs for club members. Thara dreams of fame but his shyness hinders him. Older members encourage him to pursue his dream for a celebrity sibling.

As of this writing, the production has already announced on their social media the names of the aspirant actors to proceed with the face-to-face audition! Stay tuned to BLtai for further updates!
