Girl Next Room: Midnight Fantasy (2020)

Such a great series! I really, really, really, really wish this had more episodes!
There was so much more to explore, about the backgrounds and experiences of both Mimi and Tan. What I really loved was, the issues that they faced were so real, I am really glad they addressed that. I think the main problem Tan and Mimi faced between each other was expectations, because they had a mental image formed of the perfect person in their mind, the person in front of them became annoying, but that's not reality, and coming to terms with that was what was shown in this drama.
I really wish they would have explored the drama more.
Thinking back the premise is excellent, I don't have to think twice about what will drive the story forward. Although the DJ by night/rude classmate by day concept is kinda trope-ish the execution was so fresh and realistic!
Thinking back, the characters are really beautifully created, Mimi and Tan are different in so many different ways, Tan grew up lonely and unloved by family, while Mimi's family practically baby her unto this day, resulting in such contrast in their personalities, Tan is brash and can't look around at others to save his life, while Mimi is extremely sensitive and so affected by her surroundings.
But on the other hand similar too, they are both kinda loud when annoyed and both fall asleep in extremely similar ways, and I think (although its not explicitly shown in the drama) from the conversations they have over radio, they can really sit down and talk, which i think is a precious thing to share.
The execution was in a troll-ish/comedic vein, and I was practically smiling every second, but I seriously would not mind watching the same premise in a more serious light for 10-16 episodes.
Regardless, Thanks so much to the production team, for bringing such memorable characters to the screen for us.
And 10/10 acting by Singto and Jamie from beginning to end. 10/10 for the chemistry as well!
I smiled the whole way (And even squealed several times). Looking forward to their future work!??????

So.....its a thai series but the second chapter of Girl Next Room, name Midnight Fantasy.???. Its short and great to watch after a long 16 episodes of kdrama.
The story begins with the second girl that lives in the dorms. She is my fav female actor, P'Jamie, that plays the role of mimi. A shy, innocent and scaredy cat teen that starts to live on her own. She stumble across a radio show at 3am when she was scared of ghosts in her room. The host is .....Singto (my sole reason I watch this.) That plays Titan calms her and she continues every night to tune in at 3am. At school she met a rude boy who tease her all the time and gets her in trouble. They got close and he found out that it was her who tune on the radio asking all the time for his identity.
I watched one episode a week and it was definitely worth it. I will not spoil it but ofcourse she loves both traits at the end. The rude one and calming voice.

One comment that I love at the last episode was by @lashieemae which says...."we may not have proper kissing scene for Tah and Mimi but there is just something about a forehead kiss. It shows that Tan respects and loves mimi to the fullest and cares for her deeply....." If u want to know what she mean watch Midnight Fantasy,ka.
