Peraya journey

The fellow group producers have signed up with Gmmtv channel, so the production team sent all the profiles of candidates who are selected for SOTUS.

As Gmmtv is a rising channel in Thailand, they want all their drama to reach the audience because they want to sustain their position in the entertainment industry. Now they are planning to air atleast 25 new series in the coming year.

So, they informed all the production team who wants their series to be aired on Gmmtv that they will train them (all the pairs) from different series as they are all newbies.

So, the production team informed all the candidates who got selected for SOTUS. They informed them all through line messages that they need to come on Saturday at 10 am.

On Saturday, all the candidates came there well on time.

So the manager informed them that first Singto and Krist has to attend a workshop as they are pair in the series and rest of the cast will join them before a month when shooting takes place.

The manager informs Singto and Krist that from today onwards p'Toy will take care of both of them and that they have to meet him in Gmmtv building after 1 hour.

While going out Singto offers lift to Krist as he came along with p'Jane.
When they were in p'Jane's car, Krist starts talking,"P'Sing ,I already mugged up some of my dialogues. If I do two rehearsals, I think I can act as a professional. So I thought there is no need for workshop. What about you P?"

"I had also learnt my dialogues before hand so I can be well prepared. I think in workshop they will teach us about how the same dialogue can be delivered in different ways with different feels."

They reached Gmmtv building and met p'Toy well on time. After taking a few turns from the reception, they met p'Toy.

They both greeted p'Toy with a wai.

P'Toy welcomes them with a smile and dragged a love seat for them to sit.

Singto and Krist were suprised by seeing that sofa because the sofa was so small for two people to sit without touching each other.

"Sit", P'Toy says firmly.

They immediately sat on the love seat. But on sitting, all their side parts were touching and those touches were giving chills to them.

Now they both are thinking why p'Toy is asking them to sit this much close.

As if he understands about what they were thinking, p'Toy says,"From now onwards, we are going to train you how a couple should be."

"For one month the training will be only on 'how to not feel embarassed while touching each other'. There will be 24 other pairs along with you. We hired a professor from Los Angeles acting school, who is professional in training newbies."

"So you both take this 25,000 baht for each and buy couple dresses and atleast 3 pairs at that. Buy couple shoes and couple accessories. So whenever we have an event of our channel you would wear those dresses so as to keep the audience hooked and curious. The way you'll will make them curious about your relationship and they'll perceive you as a couple."

"So both of you should go and do some shopping. Try to understand what your partner likes. Ok?"

"Phi, what is the need of acting as couple other than series, when there is not even a single hug in the series?", Krist asks

"To raise curiosity. So go and buy couple dresses.", p'Toy says.

So, Krist and Singto takes that money and leaves.
