It stars Zee Pruk and NuNew Chawarin as the central couple Charan and Khanin. Support comes from Jimmy Karn ('Why RU?', 'Peach of Time') as Ramil, Ohm Thanakrit ('Dinosaur Love', 'Night Dream') as Paetay, Kris Charintip as Ava, Kong Kongpob ('Naughty Babe') as Jay, Thomas Teetut ('Middleman's Love', 'Bed Friend') as Calvin, Ballchon Tanawat ('Middleman's Love') as Chakri, Saksit Tangthong ('To Sir With Love') as Khanin's father Thatdanai, and Nhing Nirut ('Until We Meet Again') as the King. It is directed by Aoftion Kittipat Jampa who helmed the company's previous BL series 'Cutie Pie', 'Naughty Babe', as well as the upcoming 'Zomvivor'.


   


Synopsis: "The nation of Emmaly is ruled by a monarchy that is divided into five regions ruled by different royal clans. According to an age-old tradition, each clan must send an heir to compete to become the country's new ruler, since the winning heir's father will inherit the Crown. Prince Khanin of the Atsawathewathin Royal family lives far away from Emmaly and doesn't care about vying for the throne. His bodyguard Charan Phithakdheva, whose family have been the Atsawathewathin royal guard for decades, now finds he has the duty to bring Khanin back to the country to fulfil his destiny, even if it is against his will."

This look looks awesome. Bodyguard + prince/king is my favorite fanfic.

I can see it. The only other pair that might work for the bodyguard/prince would be NatMax, but since they already have another show, it make sense to give it to ZeeNuNew
