The supernatural world of GMMTV is expanding. Recently, workshops officially began for the highly anticipated series Unlucky Bae. Based on the popular novel Chut Chop Sai Mu by LuaAimei, the production has finally kicked off. This project brings together a fresh and talented cast. Lead actors Mac Nattapat and Tham Tupthong recently joined director Yokee Apirak for the first day of intensive prep. Consequently, excitement is peaking as fans get their first look at the new on-screen pairs.
The Plot: A Love Spell Gone Hilariously Wrong
Unlucky Bae blends romantic comedy with elements of the supernatural. The story follows Rin (Mac Nattapat), an art student from a family of traditional sorcerers. After a painful breakup, Rin decides to use his family’s mystical knowledge. He attempts to cast a spell to win his ex-girlfriend back.
However, the ritual takes an unpredictable turn. Instead of hitting its intended target, the spell accidentally hits a boy who already has a secret crush on Rin. This mistake unleashes a series of chaotic and romantic situations. Rin must now navigate a life where luck has completely turned against him. Meanwhile, he struggles to break a curse that refuses to go away.

Why “Unlucky Bae” is Trending
GMMTV is famous for polished romantic comedies. However, Unlucky Bae adds a unique “Sai Mu” (supernatural) twist. This theme is currently very popular in Thai culture. By combining university life with ancient spells, the series offers a fresh perspective on the BL genre.
The workshops will continue to focus on physical comedy. Furthermore, the team wants to ensure the supernatural elements feel grounded. Fans should stay updated via official social media channels for more behind-the-scenes content.
