Hopefully the second season will answer all the questions raised in this short movie. This is the next best thing since "Who shot JR Ewing" on the original Dallas, or the original Melrose Place craziness.

Honestly after seeing it i have more questions then answers, and i think even tho this is short it gives everything another meaning and it literally is so damn wrong what they did. I just can't stop feeling sorry for Bank and the whole situation is messed up. Just the thought of what can go wrong with a scenario like this, and how they ever thought this was a good idea to begin with, i don't know but it's messy. I do wanna see the next part but only to see how it's going to end, let's face it Bank will find out one way or another. Internally i just feel mad at Golf for making up something like this, it's inhuman.

It fulfills its objective of serving as a link to the long-awaited sequel
The group of friends from Golf High School ("Fluke" Teerapat Lohanan) and Bank ("Fluke" Sripinta Pongsatorn) have gathered (hence the title) in a house to spend a day of vacation dissipating the summer heat in a pool. They have left high school behind and are now pursuing university studies. Despite having each embarked on their own path, they maintain friendship and contact with each other.While they are having fun between games and jokes, Golf appears, who acts as host and has invited his friends, as on other occasions, to share time like this with him. The attentive public expects that at any moment Bank will join the group and resume the love relationship he had with Golf. But this does not happen.
This is how the viewer understands that contrary to what was narrated in the film 'My Bromance', Golf did not die of a brain disease as Bank was led to believe. Golf, along with his friends and parents, have lied to him about him being dead. While Golf tells Tar (Worakamon Nokkaew) that he still misses Bank, Tar and Parn (Varatchaya Comemamoon) respond that they also feel bad for cooperating in the lie.
'My Bromance: Reunion' (Thai: พี่ชาย, RTGS: Phi Chai), also called 'My Bromance Special Episode: Reunion', the Thai BL and LGBT-themed short film directed by Nitchapoom Chaianun, is not intended to follow the romance between these two boys.
A question that the public asks: why the short film? The story of Golf and Bank had its end with the death of the former while the latter would remember him not only for having been his youthful love, but also for saving his life by donating his kidney. But the impact of the film, both inside and outside Thai borders, led the filmmakers to take up the story in a later sequel, but to do so they needed to explain that Golf had not died.
Regardless of whether or not you like what is shown on the screen or how unethical you can see behind a lie for whatever reasons, the truth is that the short, released on May 18, 2015, fully fulfills its function of continuing the events narrated in the film 'My Bromance', by the same director and released a year earlier, as well as serving as a link to its long-awaited sequel 'My Bromance 2: 5 years later', from 2020.
In this way, the creators could resume the story interrupted with the "death" of Golf, to introduce the viewer to the subsequent continuation of the romance: after the traffic accident they suffered, Golf has not died, as they made Bank believe. . Golf continues with his studies, although he still suffers from the aftermath of the tragedy.
Instead of confronting his parents, his immaturity led him to lie to the person he loves, because he considered that the farce is a good idea to make Bank forget him and thus be able to turn the page on that romantic relationship so frowned upon by his parents. both boys.
However, Golf has not been able to forget Bank, and he will ask his friends to continue giving him a gift from them every year, on Bank's birthday.
The sad, distressed looks of everyone show that, deep down, they do not agree with the situation and they hope to be able to reveal the truth to Bank at some point and that the two boys, if they wish, can continue with their romance. .
And so it will happen, but it will be reviewed at another time.
