Suparburoot Jutathep: Backstory to Duangjai Tewaprom

 

Title: Suparburoot Jutathep (Gentlemen of Jutathep)

Broadcast Period: March 15th - July 7th, 2013 

After 11 years, we’re finally getting part 2 for this drama series. Today, I’ll be talking about a well-known beloved Thai drama that made big buzz and how were now getting part 2. 

Plot: A five-part Thai drama series set in the 1960s based on the five brothers of Jutathep palace raised by their 2 grandmothers after the death of their parents from a car accident.

These brothers were born as Mom Rajawongse (M.R.). Which is a title given to the great grandchildren of the Thai King. You're no longer of royal status but it let's others know you are of royal bloodline. This background pushes the grandmothers to raise the well-known and well-educated men to be gentlemen and good examples.

And even with such a status, the brothers have a bigger responsibility to uphold: marriage. Before the car accident, their father made a promise with a close friend and life saver, Tewapan Tewaprom. Basically, one of his sons will marry one of the Tewaprom daughters when they get older. But as fate would have it, love can’t be forced & each brother will find their true loves not fulfilling the promise. Thus, bringing us part 2, Duang Jai Tewaprom. Set 30 years in the future, it now focuses on the sons of these brothers & how their love stories will get intertwined with the daughters of the Tewaprom ladies.

A special note/tribute after watching the 1st episode of Laorchan:

It still feels surreal to say the least that season 2 of the Suparburoot Jutathep series is finally airing. 11 years later and so much has changed but the Jutathep family vibes between the brothers still feel the same. I was instantly taken back to the 1^st time I saw the gates of the Jutathep palace in Khun Chai Tharatorn. I was only a teenager when the show aired but it had such a huge impact on me. I vividly remember spending my entire Spring of 2013 waking up early every weekend to watch the latest episodes and chatting away with my sisters and online drama friends. It was the most eventful 4-5 months I ever spent on a Thai drama series. There was so much love between these brothers that transcended between each part. Now, 11 years later, their sons have assumed the position and I look forward to seeing this bond continue to spread through the Jutathep family. Thank you Ch3 for bringing back one of my all-time favorite Thai Lakorn families. I’m ready to spend another 4-5 months chatting away! ❤ ️
