Notes

Hi, this is going to be a one-off post from me, just as a reminder that the series premiered on Friday, since it seems to be missing an on-air so far. If anyone's interested in picking up the on-airs, please do so.

Especially considering how most of these upcoming 2026 (or so) shows are also returning to lighter themes, while the last three years saw quite a few dark and outlandish ones.

Before When Oranges Fall ends, four school BLs will be airing concurrently, and again from mid-August till the end of September. Might even go up to five if Weirdo-101 comes out sooner than later.

It's an issue people don't like to acknowledge, so it's not talked about much, but we can't deny the fact that nowadays it's often so difficult to secure tickets to major concerts and events that fans have few options but to buy from ticket resellers.

As Mantra shared in the above Fraud Fighters clip (and Michiru also had a similar story in ep. 2), scams are a pretty common occurrence. It's one of the reasons this subreddit disallows reselling and buying here. But I think it would be helpful to discuss the practice and share some general advice.

You probably know the basics about the practice. While some resellers may be genuine fans unexpectedly unable to attend the event, the vast majority are likely scalpers looking to profit from excess demand, where people are willing to pay higher prices for a ticket than its face value.

While the practice is pretty much universally detested, fans wanting to attend an event for which they weren't able to get tickets face a dilemma: do they boycott the scalpers and miss the event, or give in to the outrageously inflated prices? While some choose to boycott as the right thing to do, it would only work if everyone did so, and there most likely will be someone desperate enough to pay.

A related practice is ticket-buying proxies, who will take your order before ticketing opens and help secure tickets for a flat fee. On the surface they don't look so bad, but they still might be using malicious methods such as bots to outcompete other genuine buyers.

And then there are the frequent scams which permeate the scene. Recent news reports told of hundreds of victims who recently lost millions of baht to a gang of scammers, especially over BTS's current world tour.

Short of event organizers implementing strict ID-check policies so that no one but the named buyer can enter the venue, which would make resold tickets worthless, there's not much that fans can do but be vigilant and protect themselves from these scams.

There are articles, such as this Thairath piece (Google Translate), that go over the common tactics employed by scammers. But even knowing this, most transactions are done through social media, which doesn't make it easy to verify sellers' identities. And it's even harder for international fans unfamiliar with the cultural context.

The only more-or-less sure way to buy from a reseller is to meet in person and pay upon receipt of the physical ticket then and there.

It's also important to check the conditions for each event. While some events allow tickets to be transferred and/or to be picked up by someone else using a copy of the buyer's ID and a signed power-of-attorney form, recent GMMTV events (since Blush Blossom 2026) do not allow this, and require that the actual ID card or passport with the number used to buy the ticket be provided upon ticket collection. This means that resellers providing a photocopy of their ID and power-of-attorney form for pick-up will not work.

Recently, a third-party ticket resale website called Tixxa .co has been gaining attention as an intermediary platform facilitating transactions without the need for direct contact between buyers and sellers. I do not have experience with them, but apparently how it works is that the buyer pays through Tixxa, which acts as an escrow and holds onto the money until delivery of the ticket is completed and confirmed.

While the service offers a level of safety from scams (for a 3% fee), it also gives easy visibility and a huge level of convenience to resellers, who are free to set prices without any policy restrictions. This has started to make the site's name rather unpopular among fans, as it's becoming perceived as a facilitator, and even legitimizer, of price-gouging scalpers.

They were also making self-promotional social media posts in the form of artist profile videos, which recently prompted a message from GMMTV presumably demanding their removal.

So... that's the context that I can offer. I won't say if it's right or wrong to buy resale tickets or use these services, since each person's circumstances will be different. But so long as the practice lasts, I hope we can at least help prevent people from falling victim to scams on top of the price gouging.

I'd like to hear your thoughts. What do you think of the issue? Are there things you think can be done to improve the situation? Or do you perhaps have direct experience or specific advice to share?

Both Dew and Ticket to Heaven are set in 1996, two years after the song was released with Moderndog's debut album.

In this scene, >!after a certain development in their relationship, Dew finds the next morning that Pob ghosted him but had submitted an assignment to translate the song lyrics in his name.!<

Ohm was 18 and won the Bangkok Critics' Assembly Award for Best Supporting Actor for his role as Dew.

I understand that people are talking about the appropriateness of certain items. I don't know enough to comment, but think a post is warranted for discussion here.

From two storeys up and behind them, that is.

From Thursday's Live House.

• Keaton: Can I go splat with this?
• Neo: You've been watching too much slapstick! Here, this is how we do it at GMMTV.
• Justin: Let's not prank him like that.
• Keaton: If we go cute with it, it won't be fun for the fans.
• Justin: P'Neo is a man of age, he'll...
• Keaton: He'll be upset? No, he's experienced in life, he won't be upset with such a small thing.
• Keaton: I'll just do it cute.
• Justin: Excuse me, P'
• Neo: I'll teach you how we do things at GMMTV.
• POOF

Well, TBH they weren't intentionally explaining it. But they talked about how back in the day, you practically could only get good reception for one channel at a time. This helps explain why a lot of Thai TV viewers will habitually tune into one channel and never change it, which in turn results in the TV ratings pattern where the numbers are highly dependent on the channel and can't really be compared between them.

This is excerpted from a longer video I posted on the Boyslove sub of Thai reaction channels reacting to When Oranges Fall episode 1. Most reaction-makers here are Millennials and thus precisely the intended audience of When Oranges Fall's targeted late-90s nostalgia, and their reactions show quite well how effective it is. I don't want to make a duplicate post, so take a look there if you haven't seen it.

I mentioned before that When Oranges Fall was surely going to strike such a chord with Thai Millennial viewers that International fans could never fully understand. But to give you an idea, I compiled and subtitled some highlights from the first episode reactions by Thai reaction channels Watchwhy Channel, IPOND TV, สายเลือด Y [My Blood Taste], NUNGNARONG and Channel Fanboys.

There's further context about the things they were talking about in a comment below.

I compiled a list of series that are available with English subtitles on OneD (not guaranteed to be complete).

So far, only the four most recent GMMTV series that were streamed exclusively on OneD in Thailand have had English subtitles added there. Additionally, the newer OneD Originals and most recent (and a few not-so-recent) Change2561 works also have subs available.

Many series on OneD have been reported to be restricted in some regions, but there hasn't been much clear information on the details. I'd appreciate it if you have time to check if they're available where you are. (Maybe just focus on the GMMTV series and a few samples from each of the companies, since it's going to be a lot of work to do all of them.) I already included a few data points from previous posts and discussions to get the table started.

Info from the Philippines would especially be appreciated, since what we know about the situation where OFDO and LYT had their later episodes blocked on YouTube there is still unclear.
