I need to see Perth and Luke in a show together speaking Japanese. I don't care what role they are I just need them in a show together 😭😭 they both speak Thai, English, AND Japanese. It would be too iconic if it didn't happen.
Agreed 100 percent! You seem like an underused resource for sure Perth. I was waiting for My Engineer part two, but I think we can agree that ain't happening. Time for a lead role. Su tx pi!
You are SO real for being sick of the engineers haha I swore I would never watch another series with engineering students and then cutie pie TRICKED me lmao
@@kathymckelvey1693 It makes sense, I just didn't realize Kuea was going to be a student at all when I started the series I thought they would both be working adults
You’re not wrong people suddenly become body language experts and can read emotions and minds out of thin air. They over analyze every minuscule detail of a person to come to some outlandish conclusions, kind of baffling but also funny because I would just think it’s just two people hanging out or something like that. Like everything there’s the good and the bad, I’m glad you experience the good. I would love more of these videos. 🥰
It’s hilarious sometimes, when I watch those small fan made clips - slowing down the video and adding music just to fit their analysis of their favorite actors being in love, being jealous, etc 😂
I actually can read body language quiet well but those analysis videos are always so out of the loop and full of projecting and also ignore cultural differences 😅 I guess some are meant in a joking way but then there are some where 2 people just sit next to each other, playing on their phones but apparently they are deeply in love and super flirty in that moment 🤷♂
@@HangryKitsune Exactly they go so in depth on things that everyone does. I’m just confused because to me they just seem like two people comfortable with one another just playing. Like it’s not that deep for the most part. I find reading body language fascinating but yeah some of these analyses are whack.
ngl i used to consome this shit until i realize how crazy and delusional it made us. moreover, they are real humans with feelings ffs. it's very important to divide actors from their characters
right? And then it's some normal friend behaviour XD My brother and his friends are all very comfortable around each other and truly value their friendship so they have zero problems with hugging/leaning on/sitting on each other, jokingly giving pecks to each other or saying they like each other 🤷♀ And they are very very straight. Afterall, we women do it all the time too without having romantic feelings.
For me, who is not a native English speaker, I found it much easier to understand English through the Australian accent than through the North American and British accents.
Yes, actually... I can understand anything without sub.. And, when I grow my confindence and listen the other english-podcast... I completely give up.. It's hard to follow 🤣
we are lucky Perth is a native English speaker and can present us all his insight knowledge without breaking a sweat. and he seems a genuinely nice guy
It's really nice to have questions like these being answered from someone who actually works in the industry, not just a fujoshi or even an anti who thinks they know what's going on. Obviously experiences are unique and no answer is going to be the be all end all, but it's still nice to see. Personally, I would love more of these kinds of videos.
I think the BL actors taboo thing kind of improved after the pandemic, when actors are now freer to engage in works together or not. I followed BL series since 2017 and I am seeing lots of good changes and in my humble opinion, I do think that as an interfan, these changes are more than welcomed! For starters, I can get merch fairly easy now compared to like maybe 4 years ago...
This is truee!!!!! I've been watching since 2017-2018 can't remember but I can definitely see a change as well. My first BL was love sick so going from that to what it is now has changed dermastically.
SAME HERE. I've seen such a positive turn in the bl industry, a lot less bigotry being accepted. And I don't have to wait a week to watch a show with subtitles 😂. But the kpop wave of cancellation and intrusion into the lives of the bl actors has been a big problem and I'm sad that these guys can't live normal lives like they could have 4-5 years ago.
@Xie Lian yeah. Or always talking about tops/subs, husbands/wives etc. I swear my bff would have punched them if someone talked about his partner like this or would question their sex life.
I've watched KP with my Thai friend (we were living in Korea) and she in fact could tell straight away that you were not born and raised in Thailand, but she would also constantly point out how cute your accent sounds! Hahah
LMAOOOOOOO YES!!!! Like me and my friend make so much fun of the fact that kinda every BL has engineering students xDDD It's so funny, I'm so happy you pointed this out!
My Engineer was the first BL I watched, and that was a mere 6 months ago. Absolutely loved it, and it sent me down the rabbit hole of BL's and made me a fan of Perth. Then I watched his vids of learning to speak Thai, which encouraged me to study further, and I now have a puppy that only responds to me, because all her commands are in Thai 😁 I don't have anyone else here that I can practice with, and she doesn't care about my accent or mispronunciation. LOL
Good luck with learning thai🫰 I've been watching BL for 6 years now and Taynew being the first ever couple that got me into BL so during these 6 years I've learnt a little bit of Thai without actually trying to learn it lol
Your fanfic answer was pretty much what I'd think, if I'd be in the situation. That being said, mentioning that even the writers wouldn't want that (which I usually agree with, fandom spaces are for fans) made me think of "Little Achievements" where two Star Trek actors acted out a whole story their characters were written in and the fanfic author introduced them. Absolutely depends on the actors and writers, and probably the content itself lol.
It's an interesting question and I absolutely respect Perths pov on it. I can understand how people writing fanfic about you could be something you don't want to consume. If I was an actor and there were fanfics written about m I don't think I'd want to read them either. I do enjoy watching actors respond positively to some fanfics though. It's the actors who get angry about it and attack the writers that really make me sad for fanfic writers.
@@AlexBsSecret well, it's not about fanfic not being made into things at all, if that were an issue, then half of contemporary media wouldn't exist - it's about actors whose roles are written about in fanfic not reading those. Sometimes they do, and very rarely that is a good thing. Most of the time, people at events will make actors read bits of fanfic to make fun of fanfic writers and that leaves everyone feeling super bad, including the people who are asked to make fun of their own fans. Generally, fanfic is from and for fans and never for the actors whose roles are written about and most certainly not when RPF is involved.
perth you were a side character in cutiepie but you so easily caught my attention. everything about you in that series is PERFECT and damn the whole industry will be wasting real talent if they don't give you another main role. so. i'm patiently waiting with hands on ma lap
Fan service is just what it is…acting for the fans. If everyone just takes it for what it is…then everyone would be more satisfied. Thanks for this one Perth! I always enjoy your videos.
But that doesn't make sense as most fans who are girls generally believe that besides fan service, what's the point of acting for fans outside of the series? In real life ? using its name and everything is completely different and problematic.
@@CarlosEduardo-iw9jr I would guess that depends on one’s own interpretation. I would use the term “fan service” to inform people that these are activities to promote the series or other products. No production company wants the fans to stop shipping their actors. I’m curious, why would it make a difference if the fan is male, female or gender neutral? When I see BL actors doing fan service, it gives me an opportunity to see them continue in their “roles” unscripted. But I recognize it for what it is, part of their job. I think it is much more difficult for an actor especially when some of them are new to the field. And sometimes you can tell that they really are not comfortable with the situation or their partner, but hopefully continuing to do fan service will help them with that in the future. You can also see when people have a genuine affection or partnership with each other. I don’t think that you have to be gay to like another person of the same gender or feel comfortable enough to hug them or even kiss them. That often comes with familiarity and a person’s own comfort level societal pressures aside.
I personally hate fs because it it lying after all. If people have a genuine connection, then they should just be themselves and not force anything. I totally understand why they do it, but I hate questioning the actual feelings of the people. And I am not just talking about BL, but in general: other series, k-pop, etc. I know some pairs (for lack of a better term in this situation) really like each other and do things because they want to (at the same time thinking that fans will like it) but I really hate when people pretend and force connection playing with fans. At the end of the day it stops being fun and turns into lying and sometimes even ship wars.
@@IrinNovy I understand your feeling because you think of fan service in a different way than I do. I think FS is part of their job as actors, they do it because the company insists on it, their sponsors want it and the fans like it. I consider FS acting; to me they are behaving the same way they do in their dramas so I don’t question their feelings, in either situation. As we know people are going to believe what they want to believe, regardless.
@@clbert7460 I understand but when I watch behind the scenes, I want to see actors not their characters. If I want acting, I watch dramas. Of course it is profitable for the creators but it is dishonest and that is my problem with it.
Perth is a real one. Really enjoy his commentary and educating us. He’s so cool and approachable like let’s hang out watch BL’s eat popcorn. Love this channel🌺🌺🌺
Thanks so much for answering these questions! I’m part of a BL fan group and there was one person who was genuinely heartbroken when they were told to separate the actors from the character couple they play, so we need more informative content like this to show both sides of the industry in positive ways!
This is important because when they see they favorite actor acting alongside another person who is not their previous BL partner, usually a female partner, they start attacking them, it's so disgusting and the main thing that drove me away from the BL fandom
@@kingofdragons7 which makes no sense imo lmao, like if you don’t like seeing your fave with another (female) partner, then just don’t watch the series, and stay away from that content as much as possible?? Why go to the trouble and extent of attacking them, or, in most cases, their partner??
really good answer to the fanfic question! it's so important to know the distinction between fanworks created for the artists AND fans, and fanworks made for other fans ONLY. i really liked what you said about not owning a character too. i like this vision of shows/characters as something that is collective, that brings in the vision of the creators, the actors, and subsequently, the fans too, thru fanworks and fandom and discussions. i appreciated your video
What a wonderfully fun and informative video. Would definitely like to see another such video from someone "in the know." as opposed to just a fan. One trend I also like that you touched upon is that there seems to be recently more inclusion of gay activism themes as part of the plot.
It’s always a pleasure to hear your opinions and it was really interesting to hear yours about the BL industry. Peoples rarely talk about the « behind » of being an actor so it was cool to hear about your own experiences.
I must say 3 out of 4 on those series mentioned he casted are all good series. My Engineer, Cutie Pie series, and specially Kinn Porsche. When KP went to Manila last October, I get to see all casts including you Perth, I admire your proficiency in English and in Thai. I love how you can do both language specially when you talked to us in English that time, it amaze me the most. Hoping for more projects :)
@@anaribeiro2791 right.. It was just an amazing to know he can do both Thai and English.. we know that it's not common to a Thai native speaker to speak English unless you will learn it in Uni or practice like your native language.
Una de las mejores decisiones que he tomado en mi vida a sido empezar a seguir a Perth es una persona tan linda, honesta y respetuosa y eso es algo que me gusta mucho de él, no podría estar más orgullosa de la persona que es y de como es 🥺🩵🩵
I just love how down to earth you are; and you are more charismatic than you might think. I do hope we see you in other roles, especially as a lead, you would do a wonderful job. Until then, your videos are wonderful and you always create such an easygoing space that I find myself smiling for the entire time you're talking. Cheers :D
You're so thoughtful, thank you for taking the questions seriously. You have such a good perspective on the industry and all that comes with it. I feel like you are a good resource for your friends as well. I hope you continue your career in the same mental space as you are now.
Dude I swear I really appreciate both your way of thinking and how genuine you sound! It's honestly refreshing. I hope to see you act in a new project soon! 💜
It’s so cool having watched Perth in series, loved his work, then to hear him explain how his experiences have been - love it. He’s so reasonable in his thoughts, too, which is comforting. Love from Scotland!
Perth did a really good job of giving us a glimpse of the behind the scenes and the thoughts of BL actors. Also he’s so handsome, I hope he gets cast as a lead again!😊
Yes you need to do this again and yes bring a friend. It might be fun to bring on non actor friends and just ask their opinion on random things. I mean are you best buds with the boom operator?😂 I realize behind the scenes people probably dont wanna be in front of a camera but still a video with someone with a different experience might be fun. Also ghost shipping is fun sometimes more so then the lead ship. Dont know why that is but maybe cause your not supposed to be thinking that nor are the actors trying to be cute together but they just naturally are.
i’ll always have so much love and respect for perth. not only is his content entertaining and fun, but he’s also able to give a lot of insight into the industry. all of these actors we love are _still people_ and unfortunately a lot of fans forget that (like what he’s said about overanalyzing interactions and about people claiming things are or aren’t fan service). it makes me so happy that he feels comfortable to share all of this with us. thank your for your lovely insight💗
Thank you again for sharing with us, it's very appreciated! Also, you have such an open and positive mindset about your work and the stuff surrounding it. 100% agree that folx read into service more than is there - it should just be a fun, lighthearted additional interaction for everyone, not something that causes 'fandom wars' or whatever.
As someone who wants to get into the acting/music industry, this was super helpful. 😭 I love your videos so much, and I can’t wait for your next one! 🫶🩷
Thank you for having the only nuanced take on fa service during a time where the acceptable line is “FANSERVICE BAD!” lol This was very eye-opening, thank you for sharing your experiences and thoughts with us.
Thanks Perth for making this video. I felt it’s so necessary to have someone give an induction session to the BL entertainment industry to us beginners. Well done 😊
Hi, Perth, awesome video! I would love to see a third video like this with one of your fellow BL actors who has had different experiences than you in the BL industry, just to hear another perspective. Thanks for your willingness to share with your Pandelions and for considering our suggestions. We love you!
Thank you so much for this video, Perth! ❤ It was really interesting to hear you answering these questions, giving us some insights into the industry and sharing your experiences! I just wanted to let you know that we (speaking on behalf of the fans, I guess 😂) appreciate you not only as a BL actor but as an actor in general as well as a great person. You are cherished not only due to our interest in BL stuff but for other things that you do! Also I wanted to mention that you inspire me to learn languages! I’m not a native English speaker and watching your videos helps me practice my listening skills a lot, because you speak so clearly and it’s easy for me to understand Thank you again ❤
Me encanta la claridad de su acento/pronunciación. A mi me cuestan un poco los listening pero cuando Perth habla le entiendo todo aún sin subtitulos 😅😅 me encanta ❤
That was great! Thank you for doing this! I would love another Q&A. Especially on the "life expectancy" of a BL actors, when it's too old to be in the industry and is the age limit moving up as some popular BL actors mature and hit the 30 mark. Also how much say do you have in the role choice when a series is made in the production house that you are associated with.
I'm really hoping for some more mature Thai BLs - I feel Japan has a big range of ages in movies and shows, but Thai shows like kinnporsche are my favourite, with older actors and themes and not just school stories. I liked the concept of manner of death too
Thanks for explaining your take on the bl series and your responsibility as a actor in them. I'm a fan of most all Asian movies and TV shows. I have been for a long time. There is still much I don't understand so I hope you do a third video in this set. Thank you for your time and truthfulness. Sending best wishes and support from kentucky, USA
who wants perth to read a fanfic of himself or even his character cause god knows how much buzz he creates. Also he was my first BL crush since my first ever BL was my engineer
The KinnPorshe novel was basically a crazy fanfic based on the writers' obsessions with Mile, so technically, he has read some, sort of. But, no, I wouldn't want someone ro do something they don't want to do.
You are so straight forward and articulate with your answers. It's a pleasure listening to you. On the fan service question I would have expanded it and asked if there are actors who are pushed by studios or management companies to do fan service when they may not really want to. Also my biggest question that I have asked in so many forums, but no one will answer, is do any of the actors in a series get any money from merchandising or sales of boxsets. Yes, I would really like it if you could do another Q&A video and as far as a guest it would be wonderful if you could get Talay to be there. I liked you guys together so much in My Engineer. If Talay comes on you should wear your neck tattoo again! HAHAHA XXOO 💖🧡💛💚💙💜
You are one of the chillest person i ever knew and i think that's why you're surrounded with positivity because you yourself such a positive person Excuse my english
I know I'm just a small sand in your 99% of fans giving positive energy to you but I still want to stay here and say that you're doing great, hope you will always receiving love from fans!
Ok, I need to watch this in my break but I think that content that Perth are doing is so important and is treasure! His effrost and channel need to be recognized also! And Perth! Your English talking its so nice hearing that Im learning a lot as reference of how could I speak :) Arigato a lot!
I would love a part 3 Q&A to BL related topics. I know it was some time ago now, only it relates to the question of you having the choice of wardrobe and style of a character you play. In " My Engineer " and as the character of Ram, were you able to choose any designs of the tattoo's Ram had? 🤔
since it was his 1st major role I'm pretty sure he didn't, and he also mentioned in the video that he respects the vision of the director and doesn't make suggestions concerning his outer appearance for roles. However, more well-known and established actors do this sometimes, or at least they gain the power over time to say no to some things. Just remember, acting might look like art but in the end of the day it's a job and they get paid to show that they can play completely different characters, look different, speak and behave different. That's what makes good actors.
on the subject of speaking English, let me admit that the one line I enjoyed the most in KP was Bible(Vegas) asking Bui(Pete) 'why are you still here?' I can't pick apart why entirely, but it was incredibly moving. So much emotion carried through.
As someone new to thai series especially BL, this video is super interesting. I was actually (tbh I still am) surprised about how ship thingy in thai BL fandom is taken seriously (and term 'ghost ship', I was confused and wonder why do we suddenly talk about the Flying Dutchman?) and some even projecting things that should've stay on A O 3 or their drafts into real humans with actual feelings. Its also interesting how rare it is for multiple companies produce one series together like korea
🤣🤣🤣 Your comment, from talk about **"the flying Dutchman"** till the end of it got me rolling. And true, people need learn to keep their AO3 minds in AO3 🤣
@@excelbliss6193 i mean, ppl be discussing about serious matters like mental health, inequality, discrimination, economy crisis, political issues etc but these human beings decided to focus on making their AO3 fantasy into reality. Listen to Perth, people. There are more serious things you can get angry about in this life
just love to watch perth talking! like, not just listening, i need to see him talking and making faces and getting confused and also being so real and sweet! ohhh so happy he makes a lot of content!
Goodness, there's so much to learn... I had to look up so much lingo to get an idea of what you're talking about. To be honest, I (GWM, born 1970, Netherlands) just clicked on your video because I really like your looks. Now I learned what BL stands for , that there's a whole culture of series I never knew about and that "ghost ship" can mean something else, than just a mysterious vessel without crew. Haven't discovered what, though... I'll take a look at some of your other videos and see if I get into it more. Keep up the good vibes!
Looking forward to seeing you at タイフェス🇹🇭 this weekend!!! I always love how down to earth you explain things and answer questions and I would definitely love a part 3. Random confeaaion time... I would love to star in a BL and am infinitely sorry I am not an Asian male. My Thai sucks, but I would do Japan or Taiwan in a heartbeat. Lol
I appreciate this video so much for some reason. Like.. It just really answered all the questions I had and it’s interesting to see how a BL actor’s mindset is like and how they work. The Thai entertainment industry is still very much small and not as English inclusive, if that makes sense? It’s just hard to find content with English subtitles, so Perth is a godsend.
Perth, look at the pokeball, look back at me, 🤨 I can't subscribe anymore than I already have. On a real note: Thank you for always be so honest. You're constantly respectful to the community you often play a role apart of. You aren't just afraid of being canceled, it's because you're just a good person.
5:50 absolutely. people need to hear this advice more - and fans should also follow this advice regarding negative comments about their favs. giving a response just encourages negativity, like think about it the only point of posting hate comments is to get a reaction from someone. if they cant get it out of an actor/singer/influencer etc themself theyll try to get it from their fans. ignoring it is always the best thing.
This was such a great video, I loved hearing your perspective and gaining a bit of knowledge about how things come together with the shows I absolutely love. I love that you touched on some of the more basic aspects of the BL industry. The costuming for example and the heat. I just finished watching Chains of Heart and one of the main characters Lue, always wore suit jackets and blazers or leather coats and leather gloves. I mean his wardrobe was practically it's own character, I don't know how on Earth he could stand it and what was crazy was he never seemed to be sweaty. Sometimes I watch a series and you can see the actor sweating, not on their clothing but on their face and around the hairline. The team responsible for keeping that from showing deserve some sort of award! In any case, I have enjoyed your work and appreciate the time you take to make these videos, your Thai lessons videos are fantastic and I look forward to seeing you in more roles in the future!!
I got to know you through CutiePie, and a while later you participated in a Podcast that I found very interesting. I really liked your sincere and respectful posture. I am grateful that you make these videos showing your point of view and your personal tastes. I will try to follow your videos more constantly. I wish you much success 🙏 Love from Brazil! 😽💚💛💙
If you become a member you can watch almost every video he's done in the 2.5 years of the channel. All of his streams become members only after one week.
Good point aboit in-universe gay marriage. Lemme just say, I feel like as much of a Yaoi trainwreck as some of Thai BL is, I think that the shows are helping give visibility to the marriage equality cause. In Asia, it is still only Taiwan with marriage equality. Rumour has it Thailand is the next closest. Oh how I wish it was us in Japan... But you never know, Japan either does not change or it changes in the blink of an eye. We could have a 300 year wait, or we might change tomorrow. Who knows?
Perth. Thank you. Finally a celebrity who gets why we want to watch a video about a celebrity. No slide whistles, Bongos, squiggly graphics and rapid edits and clowning that’s never funny. You actually talked to us and not at us. You communicated and didn’t feel the need to perform or talk down to your audience. You talked to us and treated us like a peer. And finally, you talked about interesting stuff. Please keep doing this and encourage your fellow actors to overcome insecurity and be a real person on camera. The real is so much more interesting That was the most watchable and informative 20 minutes with an actor I’ve seen. I hope others give you that feedback. You are really on to something and you are a very good communicator.
It was interesting to hear many stories I wanted to know! I hope you will do it again✨✨ The Thai bl actor industry is a bit like the Japanese voice actor industry. I have been thinking that the Thai voice acting industry is similar to the Japanese voice acting industry because Japanese voice actors also expand their activities by holding events and radio shows in combination with their hit series.
I think it would be great for another actor to join because Perth is very open minded and sees acting in a certain way. Not all actors have that view so it would be interesting to witness that discussion. I'm sure they'd be very civil and the conversation would have a lot of value
Hey Perth! I really enjoyed this video today. I love how honest and genuine you are when answering the questions but also with just who you are as a person! I always feel a sense of comfort when watching your content! I just wanted to say something kinda unfortunate happened to me today and it’s been on my mind all day and has been kinda stressing me out. I’ve tried to not think about it but would end up thinking about it even more(I tend to do this since I have anxiety). And actually during the time I was watching your video my mind didn’t wonder even once so thank you, even if I’m back to stressing about it now at least I was relaxed for 22 minutes😅 You always have my full focus when watching you! But yea so thanks for todays video and I hope you’re content continues to do well! Also you’re the only man I’d ever willingly pay a subscription for🫶🏼 💜💜💜💜
LOL Perth you were digging your own grave at the end of the handling criticism part, I didn’t even think of the double meanings behind the phrasing until you drew my attention to it when you corrected yourself
Really interesting video ! I love how you shared your thoughts in a very respectful way, without any drama and just being honest. I feel like actors are fantacised nowadays but it's like another job, there are cool things but also difficulties, it's nice to hear the opinion of someone who is down to earth 😇
You’re cool and answered those questions well! Thanks for sharing your experiences in the Thai BL film industry which is currently taking the world entertainment media by storm! Love, from Malaysia! ❤❤
im new to bl series so thank you sm for this q&a!! your answers were really interesting and helpful to look how it works inside your favorive projects! also you are such a nice person, i wish you all the best☺️
That was a great Q&A, I have enjoyed you in the four series you mentioned, and even more on TH-cam. You cover many topics that I am interested in. I also love the way you seem to be able to adjust to both sides of your heritage without giving up either. I salute your parents it is a hard thing to balance two cultures. (Been there, done that, bought the t-shirt) Acting is a hard career on the wallet, it takes a lot of guts to not only chase the primary dream, but to work hard as an entrepreneur takes guts and perseverance. It was strangely comforting to hear that your brother runs lines with you, that means you have family support, which is heartwarming. So keep up the hard work, looking forward to seeing your future projects, blessings on you and yours.
Thank you for answering some of the questions we all have at times. I liked you a lot in Cutie Pie and K&P and love the fact that you are polyglot as it adds dimension to your characters. You are very interesting to listen to. I like someone articulated who can explain clearly a process, which you did. Seeing you as yourself now makes me want to see you more on screen, so I hope the industry can write you as the main character of a bl soon! It shouldn't be hard to make your accent part of the story. Come on writers, to your pen and write us an interesting story about a Thai guy who lived abroad and finds love on a gorgeous Thai beach. Please! :)
omg i loved this QA and yes would definitely welcome more videos on the other side perspective on the BL industry and BL series. Having another BL actor with you sounds wonderful . I have also see other comments mentioning abt ppl behind the scenes , like the cameraperson or boom operator and honestly, that would be such an interesting perspective to have. Perhaps you could make this a series with having a dif. person every time to answer all us Fujoshi/fudanshis ' queries. P.S. Love watching your videos a lot and your smile and laugh is so cute and infectious. I really love your sunny and fun personality too :)
Patiently waiting for Perth to be casted in a lead role of a series, BL or not cause, my engineer was great but it wasn’t enough we need MOAARRRR 🤞🏼
ive been sayin like… my dude deserves it fr
Is it super weird if I’ve been waiting for a Perth and Perth BL pairing JUST for the namesake??
I need to see Perth and Luke in a show together speaking Japanese. I don't care what role they are I just need them in a show together 😭😭 they both speak Thai, English, AND Japanese. It would be too iconic if it didn't happen.
Agreed 100 percent! You seem like an underused resource for sure Perth. I was waiting for My Engineer part two, but I think we can agree that ain't happening. Time for a lead role. Su tx pi!
I'm still waiting my engineer season 2 🥲 but i really want to see perth in any movie/series!

You’re not wrong people suddenly become body language experts and can read emotions and minds out of thin air. They over analyze every minuscule detail of a person to come to some outlandish conclusions, kind of baffling but also funny because I would just think it’s just two people hanging out or something like that. Like everything there’s the good and the bad, I’m glad you experience the good. I would love more of these videos. 🥰
It’s hilarious sometimes, when I watch those small fan made clips - slowing down the video and adding music just to fit their analysis of their favorite actors being in love, being jealous, etc 😂
I actually can read body language quiet well but those analysis videos are always so out of the loop and full of projecting and also ignore cultural differences 😅 I guess some are meant in a joking way but then there are some where 2 people just sit next to each other, playing on their phones but apparently they are deeply in love and super flirty in that moment 🤷♂
@@HangryKitsune Exactly they go so in depth on things that everyone does. I’m just confused because to me they just seem like two people comfortable with one another just playing. Like it’s not that deep for the most part. I find reading body language fascinating but yeah some of these analyses are whack.
ngl i used to consome this shit until i realize how crazy and delusional it made us. moreover, they are real humans with feelings ffs. it's very important to divide actors from their characters
right? And then it's some normal friend behaviour XD My brother and his friends are all very comfortable around each other and truly value their friendship so they have zero problems with hugging/leaning on/sitting on each other, jokingly giving pecks to each other or saying they like each other 🤷♀ And they are very very straight. Afterall, we women do it all the time too without having romantic feelings.
For me, who is not a native English speaker, I found it much easier to understand English through the Australian accent than through the North American and British accents.
That's very interesting, what is your mother tongue if you don't care sharing
This is actually cool. It would make sense if you’re on the western hemisphere maybe
Perth has quite a nice, mild Australian accent- so that probably also helps.
Yes, actually... I can understand anything without sub.. And, when I grow my confindence and listen the other english-podcast... I completely give up.. It's hard to follow 🤣
I've heard it is a scientific thing, also why the GPS lady is Australian. Plus Perth doesn't really use slang.
P'Perth has the most genuine to answer out of all Q&A content. He's pure and honest. Way to go. ❤
Thank you for more than 700 likes! 😍
we are lucky Perth is a native English speaker and can present us all his insight knowledge without breaking a sweat. and he seems a genuinely nice guy
@@embreis2257 I agree, I was surprised when I heard him speak English because of how fluent he is-
It's really nice to have questions like these being answered from someone who actually works in the industry, not just a fujoshi or even an anti who thinks they know what's going on. Obviously experiences are unique and no answer is going to be the be all end all, but it's still nice to see. Personally, I would love more of these kinds of videos.
I think the BL actors taboo thing kind of improved after the pandemic, when actors are now freer to engage in works together or not. I followed BL series since 2017 and I am seeing lots of good changes and in my humble opinion, I do think that as an interfan, these changes are more than welcomed! For starters, I can get merch fairly easy now compared to like maybe 4 years ago...
This is truee!!!!! I've been watching since 2017-2018 can't remember but I can definitely see a change as well. My first BL was love sick so going from that to what it is now has changed dermastically.
SAME HERE. I've seen such a positive turn in the bl industry, a lot less bigotry being accepted. And I don't have to wait a week to watch a show with subtitles 😂. But the kpop wave of cancellation and intrusion into the lives of the bl actors has been a big problem and I'm sad that these guys can't live normal lives like they could have 4-5 years ago.
Also fan of Thai BL 2018
@Xie Lian This is indeed a very serious problem. Toxic fandom is always present but it seems to be more prevalent in the BL setting.
@Xie Lian yeah. Or always talking about tops/subs, husbands/wives etc. I swear my bff would have punched them if someone talked about his partner like this or would question their sex life.
Perth is so real. He gives such nice and honest answers, i just love him for it. Hope to see him in new series soon!
I've watched KP with my Thai friend (we were living in Korea) and she in fact could tell straight away that you were not born and raised in Thailand, but she would also constantly point out how cute your accent sounds! Hahah
The way he doesn’t seem like a judgy person, like he is like if you like something, you do you, and he wouldn’t judge you for it. I love that
LMAOOOOOOO YES!!!! Like me and my friend make so much fun of the fact that kinda every BL has engineering students xDDD It's so funny, I'm so happy you pointed this out!
My Engineer was the first BL I watched, and that was a mere 6 months ago. Absolutely loved it, and it sent me down the rabbit hole of BL's and made me a fan of Perth. Then I watched his vids of learning to speak Thai, which encouraged me to study further, and I now have a puppy that only responds to me, because all her commands are in Thai 😁 I don't have anyone else here that I can practice with, and she doesn't care about my accent or mispronunciation. LOL
i’m on the road to learn thai as well :)
@@aloo._1034 su su! 😊
That's so cute!
Aww, that's NaRaK 🐶
Good luck with learning thai🫰
I've been watching BL for 6 years now and Taynew being the first ever couple that got me into BL so during these 6 years I've learnt a little bit of Thai without actually trying to learn it lol
Your fanfic answer was pretty much what I'd think, if I'd be in the situation. That being said, mentioning that even the writers wouldn't want that (which I usually agree with, fandom spaces are for fans) made me think of "Little Achievements" where two Star Trek actors acted out a whole story their characters were written in and the fanfic author introduced them. Absolutely depends on the actors and writers, and probably the content itself lol.
some fanfictions were even made into movies, like the Fifty Shades of Grey franchise is basically made out of fanfiction
It's an interesting question and I absolutely respect Perths pov on it. I can understand how people writing fanfic about you could be something you don't want to consume.
If I was an actor and there were fanfics written about m I don't think I'd want to read them either.
I do enjoy watching actors respond positively to some fanfics though. It's the actors who get angry about it and attack the writers that really make me sad for fanfic writers.
It all depends if the weather the writers can take in a fun matter which is what most fanfiction writers do
@@AlexBsSecret well, it's not about fanfic not being made into things at all, if that were an issue, then half of contemporary media wouldn't exist - it's about actors whose roles are written about in fanfic not reading those. Sometimes they do, and very rarely that is a good thing. Most of the time, people at events will make actors read bits of fanfic to make fun of fanfic writers and that leaves everyone feeling super bad, including the people who are asked to make fun of their own fans. Generally, fanfic is from and for fans and never for the actors whose roles are written about and most certainly not when RPF is involved.
perth you were a side character in cutiepie but you so easily caught my attention. everything about you in that series is PERFECT and damn the whole industry will be wasting real talent if they don't give you another main role. so. i'm patiently waiting with hands on ma lap
Fan service is just what it is…acting for the fans. If everyone just takes it for what it is…then everyone would be more satisfied. Thanks for this one Perth! I always enjoy your videos.
But that doesn't make sense as most fans who are girls generally believe that besides fan service, what's the point of acting for fans outside of the series? In real life ? using its name and everything is completely different and problematic.
@@CarlosEduardo-iw9jr I would guess that depends on one’s own interpretation. I would use the term “fan service” to inform people that these are activities to promote the series or other products. No production company wants the fans to stop shipping their actors. I’m curious, why would it make a difference if the fan is male, female or gender neutral? When I see BL actors doing fan service, it gives me an opportunity to see them continue in their “roles” unscripted. But I recognize it for what it is, part of their job. I think it is much more difficult for an actor especially when some of them are new to the field. And sometimes you can tell that they really are not comfortable with the situation or their partner, but hopefully continuing to do fan service will help them with that in the future. You can also see when people have a genuine affection or partnership with each other. I don’t think that you have to be gay to like another person of the same gender or feel comfortable enough to hug them or even kiss them. That often comes with familiarity and a person’s own comfort level societal pressures aside.
I personally hate fs because it it lying after all. If people have a genuine connection, then they should just be themselves and not force anything. I totally understand why they do it, but I hate questioning the actual feelings of the people. And I am not just talking about BL, but in general: other series, k-pop, etc. I know some pairs (for lack of a better term in this situation) really like each other and do things because they want to (at the same time thinking that fans will like it) but I really hate when people pretend and force connection playing with fans. At the end of the day it stops being fun and turns into lying and sometimes even ship wars.
@@IrinNovy I understand your feeling because you think of fan service in a different way than I do. I think FS is part of their job as actors, they do it because the company insists on it, their sponsors want it and the fans like it. I consider FS acting; to me they are behaving the same way they do in their dramas so I don’t question their feelings, in either situation. As we know people are going to believe what they want to believe, regardless.
@@clbert7460 I understand but when I watch behind the scenes, I want to see actors not their characters. If I want acting, I watch dramas. Of course it is profitable for the creators but it is dishonest and that is my problem with it.
Perth is a real one. Really enjoy his commentary and educating us. He’s so cool and approachable like let’s hang out watch BL’s eat popcorn. Love this channel🌺🌺🌺
Thanks so much for answering these questions! I’m part of a BL fan group and there was one person who was genuinely heartbroken when they were told to separate the actors from the character couple they play, so we need more informative content like this to show both sides of the industry in positive ways!
This is important because when they see they favorite actor acting alongside another person who is not their previous BL partner, usually a female partner, they start attacking them, it's so disgusting and the main thing that drove me away from the BL fandom
@@kingofdragons7 which makes no sense imo lmao, like if you don’t like seeing your fave with another (female) partner, then just don’t watch the series, and stay away from that content as much as possible?? Why go to the trouble and extent of attacking them, or, in most cases, their partner??
@@szeyingong7379 they are probably too young, i've seen this happen with Bright Win and Ohm Nanon, at least it didn't ruin Bright and Win's friendship
@@kingofdragons7 yeah they are mostly young girls that are mad when they both got close to girls which is so dumb, a pick me behavior 🤦
@@kingofdragons7 It ruined Ohm and Nanon friendship??
really good answer to the fanfic question! it's so important to know the distinction between fanworks created for the artists AND fans, and fanworks made for other fans ONLY. i really liked what you said about not owning a character too. i like this vision of shows/characters as something that is collective, that brings in the vision of the creators, the actors, and subsequently, the fans too, thru fanworks and fandom and discussions. i appreciated your video
What a wonderfully fun and informative video. Would definitely like to see another such video from someone "in the know." as opposed to just a fan. One trend I also like that you touched upon is that there seems to be recently more inclusion of gay activism themes as part of the plot.
It’s always a pleasure to hear your opinions and it was really interesting to hear yours about the BL industry. Peoples rarely talk about the « behind » of being an actor so it was cool to hear about your own experiences.
Such insightful commentary! Thanks for being open & honest with us~
You picked great questions and your responses to them are honest and genuine ;) GREAT CONTENT!
I must say 3 out of 4 on those series mentioned he casted are all good series. My Engineer, Cutie Pie series, and specially Kinn Porsche. When KP went to Manila last October, I get to see all casts including you Perth, I admire your proficiency in English and in Thai. I love how you can do both language specially when you talked to us in English that time, it amaze me the most. Hoping for more projects :)
Well he IS Australian... so....
@@anaribeiro2791 right.. It was just an amazing to know he can do both Thai and English.. we know that it's not common to a Thai native speaker to speak English unless you will learn it in Uni or practice like your native language.
@@J_... He is also majored in Japanese
@@J_...he said he moved to thailand when he was 20, he didn’t grow up speaking thai as his first language.
Una de las mejores decisiones que he tomado en mi vida a sido empezar a seguir a Perth es una persona tan linda, honesta y respetuosa y eso es algo que me gusta mucho de él, no podría estar más orgullosa de la persona que es y de como es 🥺🩵🩵
I just love how down to earth you are; and you are more charismatic than you might think. I do hope we see you in other roles, especially as a lead, you would do a wonderful job. Until then, your videos are wonderful and you always create such an easygoing space that I find myself smiling for the entire time you're talking. Cheers :D
You're so thoughtful, thank you for taking the questions seriously. You have such a good perspective on the industry and all that comes with it. I feel like you are a good resource for your friends as well. I hope you continue your career in the same mental space as you are now.
Dude I swear I really appreciate both your way of thinking and how genuine you sound! It's honestly refreshing.
I hope to see you act in a new project soon! 💜
I swear Perth makes some of the most chillest videos ever! THANK U PERTH!!!
It’s so cool having watched Perth in series, loved his work, then to hear him explain how his experiences have been - love it. He’s so reasonable in his thoughts, too, which is comforting. Love from Scotland!
Perth did a really good job of giving us a glimpse of the behind the scenes and the thoughts of BL actors. Also he’s so handsome, I hope he gets cast as a lead again!😊
Yes you need to do this again and yes bring a friend. It might be fun to bring on non actor friends and just ask their opinion on random things. I mean are you best buds with the boom operator?😂 I realize behind the scenes people probably dont wanna be in front of a camera but still a video with someone with a different experience might be fun. Also ghost shipping is fun sometimes more so then the lead ship. Dont know why that is but maybe cause your not supposed to be thinking that nor are the actors trying to be cute together but they just naturally are.
i’ll always have so much love and respect for perth. not only is his content entertaining and fun, but he’s also able to give a lot of insight into the industry. all of these actors we love are _still people_ and unfortunately a lot of fans forget that (like what he’s said about overanalyzing interactions and about people claiming things are or aren’t fan service). it makes me so happy that he feels comfortable to share all of this with us. thank your for your lovely insight💗
Loved this!! These were great questions and as always Perth you are a delight and you answered them so well. Thanks for sharing with us!
Yes 👏👍
Thank you again for sharing with us, it's very appreciated! Also, you have such an open and positive mindset about your work and the stuff surrounding it. 100% agree that folx read into service more than is there - it should just be a fun, lighthearted additional interaction for everyone, not something that causes 'fandom wars' or whatever.
As someone who wants to get into the acting/music industry, this was super helpful. 😭
I love your videos so much, and I can’t wait for your next one! 🫶🩷
Sameeee
Thank you for having the only nuanced take on fa service during a time where the acceptable line is “FANSERVICE BAD!” lol
This was very eye-opening, thank you for sharing your experiences and thoughts with us.
Thank you for answering those questions, Perth. It's really cool to hear an actor's perspective based on their own experiences within the industry. :)
Thanks Perth for making this video. I felt it’s so necessary to have someone give an induction session to the BL entertainment industry to us beginners. Well done 😊
he is one of the most educated bl actor i've ever known
Hi, Perth, awesome video! I would love to see a third video like this with one of your fellow BL actors who has had different experiences than you in the BL industry, just to hear another perspective. Thanks for your willingness to share with your Pandelions and for considering our suggestions. We love you!
Thank you so much for this video, Perth! ❤ It was really interesting to hear you answering these questions, giving us some insights into the industry and sharing your experiences! I just wanted to let you know that we (speaking on behalf of the fans, I guess 😂) appreciate you not only as a BL actor but as an actor in general as well as a great person. You are cherished not only due to our interest in BL stuff but for other things that you do!
Also I wanted to mention that you inspire me to learn languages! I’m not a native English speaker and watching your videos helps me practice my listening skills a lot, because you speak so clearly and it’s easy for me to understand
Thank you again ❤
Me encanta la claridad de su acento/pronunciación. A mi me cuestan un poco los listening pero cuando Perth habla le entiendo todo aún sin subtitulos 😅😅 me encanta ❤
Perth is so well spoken ! I love to listen to his voice ~~
That was great! Thank you for doing this! I would love another Q&A. Especially on the "life expectancy" of a BL actors, when it's too old to be in the industry and is the age limit moving up as some popular BL actors mature and hit the 30 mark. Also how much say do you have in the role choice when a series is made in the production house that you are associated with.
I'm really hoping for some more mature Thai BLs - I feel Japan has a big range of ages in movies and shows, but Thai shows like kinnporsche are my favourite, with older actors and themes and not just school stories. I liked the concept of manner of death too
Thanks for explaining your take on the bl series and your responsibility as a actor in them. I'm a fan of most all Asian movies and TV shows. I have been for a long time. There is still much I don't understand so I hope you do a third video in this set. Thank you for your time and truthfulness. Sending best wishes and support from kentucky, USA
he has such a pure and calming aura, i can literally listen to him talking all day long.
who wants perth to read a fanfic of himself or even his character cause god knows how much buzz he creates. Also he was my first BL crush since my first ever BL was my engineer
The KinnPorshe novel was basically a crazy fanfic based on the writers' obsessions with Mile, so technically, he has read some, sort of. But, no, I wouldn't want someone ro do something they don't want to do.
Can we please have him as the as a
lead in BL series ! This man is unfairly good-looking and a great actor
You are so straight forward and articulate with your answers. It's a pleasure listening to you. On the fan service question I would have expanded it and asked if there are actors who are pushed by studios or management companies to do fan service when they may not really want to. Also my biggest question that I have asked in so many forums, but no one will answer, is do any of the actors in a series get any money from merchandising or sales of boxsets. Yes, I would really like it if you could do another Q&A video and as far as a guest it would be wonderful if you could get Talay to be there. I liked you guys together so much in My Engineer. If Talay comes on you should wear your neck tattoo again! HAHAHA XXOO 💖🧡💛💚💙💜
"they would come at you harder" I'd didn't think anything until he adjusted the sentence 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 I LOVE PERTH MAN he's so chill
You are one of the chillest person i ever knew and i think that's why you're surrounded with positivity because you yourself such a positive person
Excuse my english
Every time you say you won't read fanfic I feel SO relieved. Anyway, super cute, refreshing, interesting Q&A.
I know I'm just a small sand in your 99% of fans giving positive energy to you but I still want to stay here and say that you're doing great, hope you will always receiving love from fans!
Ok, I need to watch this in my break but I think that content that Perth are doing is so important and is treasure! His effrost and channel need to be recognized also! And Perth! Your English talking its so nice hearing that Im learning a lot as reference of how could I speak :) Arigato a lot!
Broooo you’re so well spoken and all the answers you’ve given is so thoughtful and thorough. Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
Aw, thanks. I appreciate it 🥹
I would love a part 3 Q&A to BL related topics.
I know it was some time ago now, only it relates to the question of you having the choice of wardrobe and style of a character you play.
In " My Engineer " and as the character of Ram, were you able to choose any designs of the tattoo's Ram had?
🤔
since it was his 1st major role I'm pretty sure he didn't, and he also mentioned in the video that he respects the vision of the director and doesn't make suggestions concerning his outer appearance for roles. However, more well-known and established actors do this sometimes, or at least they gain the power over time to say no to some things. Just remember, acting might look like art but in the end of the day it's a job and they get paid to show that they can play completely different characters, look different, speak and behave different. That's what makes good actors.
on the subject of speaking English, let me admit that the one line I enjoyed the most in KP was Bible(Vegas) asking Bui(Pete) 'why are you still here?' I can't pick apart why entirely, but it was incredibly moving. So much emotion carried through.
As someone new to thai series especially BL, this video is super interesting. I was actually (tbh I still am) surprised about how ship thingy in thai BL fandom is taken seriously (and term 'ghost ship', I was confused and wonder why do we suddenly talk about the Flying Dutchman?) and some even projecting things that should've stay on A O 3 or their drafts into real humans with actual feelings. Its also interesting how rare it is for multiple companies produce one series together like korea
🤣🤣🤣 Your comment, from talk about **"the flying Dutchman"** till the end of it got me rolling.
And true, people need learn to keep their AO3 minds in AO3 🤣
@@excelbliss6193 i mean, ppl be discussing about serious matters like mental health, inequality, discrimination, economy crisis, political issues etc but these human beings decided to focus on making their AO3 fantasy into reality. Listen to Perth, people. There are more serious things you can get angry about in this life
What's a ghost ship?
@@aaliyahperez1554that's my question as well
just love to watch perth talking! like, not just listening, i need to see him talking and making faces and getting confused and also being so real and sweet! ohhh so happy he makes a lot of content!
He needs a LEAD role! He’s so good and beautiful and talented. Can’t wait and hopefully it’s a good pairing
Goodness, there's so much to learn... I had to look up so much lingo to get an idea of what you're talking about. To be honest, I (GWM, born 1970, Netherlands) just clicked on your video because I really like your looks. Now I learned what BL stands for , that there's a whole culture of series I never knew about and that "ghost ship" can mean something else, than just a mysterious vessel without crew. Haven't discovered what, though... I'll take a look at some of your other videos and see if I get into it more. Keep up the good vibes!
Looking forward to seeing you at タイフェス🇹🇭 this weekend!!!
I always love how down to earth you explain things and answer questions and I would definitely love a part 3.
Random confeaaion time... I would love to star in a BL and am infinitely sorry I am not an Asian male. My Thai sucks, but I would do Japan or Taiwan in a heartbeat. Lol
I love listening him to hear him answering all of the questions. He was so genuine.
I appreciate this video so much for some reason. Like.. It just really answered all the questions I had and it’s interesting to see how a BL actor’s mindset is like and how they work. The Thai entertainment industry is still very much small and not as English inclusive, if that makes sense? It’s just hard to find content with English subtitles, so Perth is a godsend.
You have to be one of the most sensible, well adjusted, just generally nicest people on TH-cam.
ily ADHASDA i need perth to be casted as a main lead in a BL series (or literally just any kind of series id watch it JUST for him)
coming back to this channel after a long while, bro is still very considerate with the way he phrases his words, respecc and honestly very attractive
Perth, look at the pokeball, look back at me, 🤨 I can't subscribe anymore than I already have.
On a real note:
Thank you for always be so honest. You're constantly respectful to the community you often play a role apart of. You aren't just afraid of being canceled, it's because you're just a good person.
5:50 absolutely. people need to hear this advice more - and fans should also follow this advice regarding negative comments about their favs. giving a response just encourages negativity, like think about it the only point of posting hate comments is to get a reaction from someone. if they cant get it out of an actor/singer/influencer etc themself theyll try to get it from their fans. ignoring it is always the best thing.
Loved it, we need part 3 and obviously I can't wait to see you in other series
I work in theatre and it is such a different environment to tv/film. Love hearing your insight into Thailand's entertainment industry. ありがとうございます！
This was such a great video, I loved hearing your perspective and gaining a bit of knowledge about how things come together with the shows I absolutely love. I love that you touched on some of the more basic aspects of the BL industry. The costuming for example and the heat. I just finished watching Chains of Heart and one of the main characters Lue, always wore suit jackets and blazers or leather coats and leather gloves. I mean his wardrobe was practically it's own character, I don't know how on Earth he could stand it and what was crazy was he never seemed to be sweaty. Sometimes I watch a series and you can see the actor sweating, not on their clothing but on their face and around the hairline. The team responsible for keeping that from showing deserve some sort of award! In any case, I have enjoyed your work and appreciate the time you take to make these videos, your Thai lessons videos are fantastic and I look forward to seeing you in more roles in the future!!
Thank you Perth for sharing your thoughts about the BL industry respectfully and genuinely 👍
You don't have many bad experiences on social medias because you are the kindest person in this world. I hope you know that ❤
I love you so much perth you are an amazing person don't forget it
What a kind and happy presence in my day. Thanks, Perth! Just dipping my toe into BL's right now
That was so interesting and fun, I love hearing all you views on the topic 😊 hope we get a part two at some point
Perth eres increíblemente sincero, nunca vi a una persona que dijera las cosas de forma tan clara y cordial😊❤
I got to know you through CutiePie, and a while later you participated in a Podcast that I found very interesting. I really liked your sincere and respectful posture. I am grateful that you make these videos showing your point of view and your personal tastes. I will try to follow your videos more constantly. I wish you much success 🙏
Love from Brazil! 😽💚💛💙
OMG!!! I HAD NO IDEA PERTH GOT A CHANNEL😍🔥 now I'm gonna spend so much time here
If you become a member you can watch almost every video he's done in the 2.5 years of the channel. All of his streams become members only after one week.
Good point aboit in-universe gay marriage. Lemme just say, I feel like as much of a Yaoi trainwreck as some of Thai BL is, I think that the shows are helping give visibility to the marriage equality cause. In Asia, it is still only Taiwan with marriage equality. Rumour has it Thailand is the next closest. Oh how I wish it was us in Japan... But you never know, Japan either does not change or it changes in the blink of an eye. We could have a 300 year wait, or we might change tomorrow. Who knows?
Perth. Thank you. Finally a celebrity who gets why we want to watch a video about a celebrity. No slide whistles, Bongos, squiggly graphics and rapid edits and clowning that’s never funny. You actually talked to us and not at us. You communicated and didn’t feel the need to perform or talk down to your audience. You talked to us and treated us like a peer. And finally, you talked about interesting stuff. Please keep doing this and encourage your fellow actors to overcome insecurity and be a real person on camera. The real is so much more interesting That was the most watchable and informative 20 minutes with an actor I’ve seen. I hope others give you that feedback. You are really on to something and you are a very good communicator.
It was interesting to hear many stories I wanted to know! I hope you will do it again✨✨
The Thai bl actor industry is a bit like the Japanese voice actor industry. I have been thinking that the Thai voice acting industry is similar to the Japanese voice acting industry because Japanese voice actors also expand their activities by holding events and radio shows in combination with their hit series.
I think it would be great for another actor to join because Perth is very open minded and sees acting in a certain way. Not all actors have that view so it would be interesting to witness that discussion. I'm sure they'd be very civil and the conversation would have a lot of value
Hey Perth! I really enjoyed this video today. I love how honest and genuine you are when answering the questions but also with just who you are as a person! I always feel a sense of comfort when watching your content! I just wanted to say something kinda unfortunate happened to me today and it’s been on my mind all day and has been kinda stressing me out. I’ve tried to not think about it but would end up thinking about it even more(I tend to do this since I have anxiety). And actually during the time I was watching your video my mind didn’t wonder even once so thank you, even if I’m back to stressing about it now at least I was relaxed for 22 minutes😅 You always have my full focus when watching you! But yea so thanks for todays video and I hope you’re content continues to do well! Also you’re the only man I’d ever willingly pay a subscription for🫶🏼 💜💜💜💜
LOL Perth you were digging your own grave at the end of the handling criticism part, I didn’t even think of the double meanings behind the phrasing until you drew my attention to it when you corrected yourself
this was very edumacational thanks perth, very well spoken
Really interesting video ! I love how you shared your thoughts in a very respectful way, without any drama and just being honest. I feel like actors are fantacised nowadays but it's like another job, there are cool things but also difficulties, it's nice to hear the opinion of someone who is down to earth 😇
I just have to say Perth is literally so cute 😭 that entire segment of him explaining his words because they sound wrong 😭😭😭
You’re cool and answered those questions well! Thanks for sharing your experiences in the Thai BL film industry which is currently taking the world entertainment media by storm! Love, from Malaysia! ❤❤
im new to bl series so thank you sm for this q&a!! your answers were really interesting and helpful to look how it works inside your favorive projects! also you are such a nice person, i wish you all the best☺️
That was a great Q&A, I have enjoyed you in the four series you mentioned, and even more on TH-cam. You cover many topics that I am interested in. I also love the way you seem to be able to adjust to both sides of your heritage without giving up either. I salute your parents it is a hard thing to balance two cultures. (Been there, done that, bought the t-shirt) Acting is a hard career on the wallet, it takes a lot of guts to not only chase the primary dream, but to work hard as an entrepreneur takes guts and perseverance. It was strangely comforting to hear that your brother runs lines with you, that means you have family support, which is heartwarming. So keep up the hard work, looking forward to seeing your future projects, blessings on you and yours.
Thank you for answering some of the questions we all have at times. I liked you a lot in Cutie Pie and K&P and love the fact that you are polyglot as it adds dimension to your characters.
You are very interesting to listen to. I like someone articulated who can explain clearly a process, which you did. Seeing you as yourself now makes me want to see you more on screen, so I hope the industry can write you as the main character of a bl soon! It shouldn't be hard to make your accent part of the story. Come on writers, to your pen and write us an interesting story about a Thai guy who lived abroad and finds love on a gorgeous Thai beach. Please! :)
omg i loved this QA and yes would definitely welcome more videos on the other side perspective on the BL industry and BL series. Having another BL actor with you sounds wonderful . I have also see other comments mentioning abt ppl behind the scenes , like the cameraperson or boom operator and honestly, that would be such an interesting perspective to have. Perhaps you could make this a series with having a dif. person every time to answer all us Fujoshi/fudanshis ' queries.
P.S. Love watching your videos a lot and your smile and laugh is so cute and infectious. I really love your sunny and fun personality too :)
we love u perth, u're literally one of my crushes in the whole industry
This was really fun and interesting. I like these kind of videos, if you ever make another BL one I'll be definitely watching it ❤️
