3 brothers, 1 girl

Premiering this coming Saturday June 26 is “3 Hua Jai (3 Hearts), starring Pat Napapa, Boy Pakorn, Alex Rendell, and “Ace” Worarit Vaijiaranai and is directed by Khun Pisan Akarasene (Aom Piyada’s father). Three hearts represent 3 brothers with very different personalities and in different stages of their lives, who fall for the same girl played by Pat Napapa.  She likes them all like her brothers but one stood out.

The plot starts off with an attempted rape of Chom (Pat) by her stepfather. Chom is a final year nursing student whose foster mother had just recently passed away, her stepfather who has been secretly lusting after her starts to make his desires known since no one is around anymore to stop him. When he tried to rape her, Chat (Alex) happens to be around the area and saves Chom. He takes her to his home to live with his family which includes his mother and 2 older brothers: Chan (Ace) and Chai (Boy). Her presence causes a rift between the 3 brothers because all 3 fell in love with her. The rift is especially heated between Chan and Chat, the oldest and youngest brother. Then something unexpected happened to Chat and Chan which lead to their deaths. As with Chai, he is falsely accuse of a crime he did not commit and was sent to jail. The summary question asked if Chom will wait for Chai when he gets out, obvious yes because she has no other brothers to choose from.

The three brothers from oldest to youngest: Chan (Ace), Chai (Boy, and Chat (Alex). All three are very different, it’s like night and day.

Chan is the oldest and is describe as a man who is very competitive, he hates losing. He’s a lawyer and extremely intelligent. From the outside, he looks like a selfish man, but really he’s a virtuous man. Compared to his two younger brothers, he is the most cunning of them all.

Chai is the second oldest and approximately 2 years younger than Chan. He’s a pessimistic, kind-hearted individual with a heart of gold. Compared to Chan who is more analytical, Chai is the artsy brother who loves cooking, crafts, and music. Chai is a boxer, a very good one too.

Lastly we have Chat, the youngest, the baby of the family. He’s a teenager, a final year secondary student.  He’s temperamental, impatient, doesn’t think before he acts. He uses his fist more then reasoning. With Chat, you see what you get. He’s not cunning all at.

“Prajan See Roong (The Rainbow Moon)” pictures


There are whole lot of pictures too. All photos are from the Ch3 website, I’ll post a few here.

“Prajan See Roong (The Rainbow Moon)” stars singer Bie Sukrit and “Aff” Taksaorn Paksukcharean as pra’nangs and “Ace” Worarit Vaijiaranai as the guy antagonist. At the beginning, Ace is Aff’s love interest, then she comes to realize he is not as he appears; there is part where he tries to rape her. Not a great guy and that is why she starts to fall for Bie, her friend since college who has always loved her.

There are a lot of elements that make “Prajan See Roong (The Rainbow Moon)” a typical lakorn–love squares, obnoxious nang’rai (girl villains), long lost mother reappearing, memory lost, and a rapist guy antagonist with too much money in his bank accounts. Then, there is the thing that makes “Prajan See Roong” stand out, it’s a gay themed lakorn. No, Bie is not portraying a confuse gay man in this lakorn, the man who plays his father is. It’s interesting.

Gays in lakorns exist for comic relief, they are the jokers, the cheap laughs, rarely are they the themed or focus character in the series. This is something different.

Another theme for this lakorn is the bond between a father and son who are not biologically related. It’s a story about a transgender man who morphed himself to a heterosexual man to raise a child who is not his own because society dictates him to do so. Complicated, right? Another question is this, is that even possible? I been seeing a trend in Thailand, especially in movies that homosexuality is influenced by a person’s environment. Ananda Everingham’s movie “Me…myself” and teen gay comedy “Puppy Love” starring Wattaporn Lamsinthorn, Pongpisut Pew-Orn, and Petchthai Wongkamlao raised the question that possibly homosexuality is influenced by experiences in one’s life and can be changed. I can’t say I buy into it.
