Into Racha

Your career collapses overnight, you step into the road without looking, and the car that nearly hits you belongs to your ex. That is how Into Racha (สู่อ้อมกอดของราชา) brings Azhen face to face with King again, one year after he told him to stay out of his sight.

Azhen, played by Sorranan Suksawat, was a rising star until a false rumour linked him to the owner of a major broadcast channel. Jobs vanish, he is told to lie low, and nobody listens when he tells the truth. With bills to pay, he heads to a bar to apply for work. The owner turns out to be King himself.

King, whose real name is Racha Akkarahemsakul, is played by Chatchapon Pranotphong. The two dated for four years. Azhen ended it because King kept missing their dates and leaving him to eat alone, and a year apart has not cooled anything. Now King is the boss, Azhen is the new server, and King follows him around the bar with the excuse that an owner has to watch his business.

The reunion comes with sparks and old wounds. King patches up Azhen's scraped leg, steps in when a customer gets pushy, and makes it very clear that he will not let him slip away a second time. Azhen insists he is done with him. Thanakrit Chiamchunya plays Tang-oh, and Apasra Lertprasert also joins the cast. Every scene between the exes crackles, because neither of them has truly moved on.
