Best Thai Dramas Starring BounPrem
Boun and Prem are Thai Actors who were first paired together in the 2019 BL drama Until We Meet Again. Just like it goes with many BL couples, the chemistry between the two stuck with fans starting from their first TV show together and in the years to follow. The name BounPrem turned into a portmanteau and the two actors came to be addressed as one by BL fans from all over the world. BounPrem currently star in the Wabi Sabi BL show, Between Us which is a spin-off to their debut pairing show, Until We Meet Again. Since Between Us is taking a mid-season break this week with no new episode airing due to the occasion of New Year, here are some other shows starring the two actors as a couple that you may have missed.
Until We Meet Again
Soon after making their solo debuts as Thai actors, Boun (Noppanut Guntachai) and Prem (Warut Chawalitrujiwong) starred together in the 2019 BL drama, Until We Meet Again. The show follows the ill-fated love story of Korn and Intouch who used to be a couple. Thirty years after their shocking demise, Korn and Intouch are reborn as Pharm and Dean and study in the same University. The show gave fans their favourite couple in Win (Boun) and Team (Prem) as they played best friends of the main leads, Dean and Pharm. BounPrem’s popularity soared off the roof because following their appearance in this BL drama, the two actors were cast in multiple projects with the same character names, one being the 2022 spin-off, Between Us where BounPrem play the lead couple.
Long Khong
Finding our BounPrem couple in a horror drama was not on my 2023 Bingo Card but as it turns out, the couple has also acted in a horror thriller. The 2020 show, Long Khong is a horror drama that narrates the story of a high school cheerleading team who navigates through different challenges including being haunted by spirits and demons. The cheerleading team is haunted after the target of their bullying, Praewa decides to make her tormenters pay by summoning various spirits and demons using her blood. As the other students are terrorized by ghouls and demons out to kill them, Praewa trains even harder to take on the centre position on the cheerleading team behaving as though nothing was wrong with the other students in school.
You Never Eat Alone (special couple appearance)
Since the actor couple shot to fame, BounPrem has starred in multiple dramas for cameo appearances. You Never Eat Alone is the 2020 BL drama that sees a special appearance from the couple in its 9th Episode. The show is an innovative Thai BL series that focuses on mental health. In this offbeat comedy, the lead character has a unique phobia of eating alone. Incapable of enjoying a meal by himself, he must always find someone else to dine with him.
7 Project
The 2021 anthology series, 7 Project, is a 7-episode show that narrates the story of seven different campus couples.

The show, Rose In Da House follows the lives of six actors/singers from the Thai Industry who have to stay under the same roof to practice singing and dancing which is the mission of Be My Boyfriend 2, a reality show project.
