GMMTV released an official statement that the lawsuit against Pawin Thanik has been amicably concluded. Pawin faced criticism after his ex-girlfriend allegedly claimed that he had physically abused her. This lead to his suspension from work, and he withdrew from his role in the currently on-air drama “We Are Series”. The two parties have reached a settlement with both dismissing their cases.

Khemjira The Series

Adapted from the novel “Khemjira Will Survive” (เขมจิราต้องรอด) by Cali (คาลิ), the adaptation titled “Spirit Reborn” was announced last year with Chap Suppacheep and Peipei Krit as the leading cast.

Retitled “Khemjira The Series”, the show now stars Namping Napatsakorn and Keng Harit as the main leads.

Synopsis-

Khem is born into a cursed family. Supposedly, a daughter born into the family would be safe. However, a son would die before he’d reached the age of twenty. Khem’s mother cleverly gives him a girl’s name, Khemjira, which means “forever safe.” Khem believes that until his nineteenth birthday.

We will be back with more updates, stay tuned!
