Maybe the owner of the voice that is used to dub over Mek is a handsome Thai guy - I wouldn't be opposed to having a recast where the new Mek sounds like the old Mek (it might be less weird than replacing Chandler Massey with Guy Wilson). Otherwise a break-up would be the best route.

Then Chandler came back and they both get fired from the show.

I remember I struggled watching the first episodes because the main couple is very boring, but RamKing steals the show and then I had to keep watching. TaraFrong is also great.

Latest news for S2 is that it won't start filming until the late fall. So S2 won't be released in 2021. Early 2022 would be the most likely release date

Maybe they are just finding more time to figure out what to do about replacing Meks

Wonder if that explains why some of the cast had so many other projects this year. Talay and Perth will be on Y-Destiny, Close Friends(Talay), KinnPorsche(Perth). Might even explain why most of the My Engineer cast will be on Bitter Sweet, to fill in that gap before My Engineer S2 is in production.
I don't think the issue is how to replace Meks, that just require a casting call. My guess is either financial or legal issues. For S1, they partnered up with a Chinese company (and that was why Ryan, the actor for Meks, was pushed into the show). I heard that partnership fell apart, so either the Thai production company don't have the full rights to the show, or they can't afford it (with out money from that partnership) anymore.

I heard that partnership fell apart, so either the Thai production company don't have the full rights to the show, or they can't afford it (with out money from that partnership) anymore. Yes that's exactly the way I read it too. They original series nearly bit the dust a few times due to lack of finance with two or three potential partners pulling out at the last moment. It was a last gasp move to keep the project alive when they got into bed with the Chinese company who insisted on a number of changes before they would part with any money. As you say, that's the sole reason Ryan became part of the cast (at the expense of another actor who had already been part of the shows pre-publicity push and can still be seen on some of the early photo-shoot pics) but I gather they also insisted on some script changes including making at least one female character being made much more prominent than the original script showed. I presume that was Ting Ting? As the show did reasonably well, I'd like to think Tencent wouldn't have the same level of difficulty in finding a new partner this time around, but who knows? My Ride has had a fraught time surviving but seems to have won through while That's My Umbrella wasn't so lucky and floundered.

Yeah, you would hope that having a successful first season would make it easier to find new investors, but maybe investors see that it is rare for a S2 to do better than S1? Outside of Still2gether, every other Thai BL that got a sequel had done much worst than the original season. LBC2, TharnType 2, MIR2 (outside of BookFrame), MIR: Live on the Beach, etc...

I liked the little tibbits he throws out when watching it. Also, interesting to see the contrast of Ram and Perth
