Synopsis

Fou4Mod (Chayapak Tunprayoon), a high school student, begins hanging out around Siam Square after being invited by Chian (Monthapoom Sumonvarangkul), who enjoys doing gel nails. The flirty atmosphere sparks feelings in Fou4Mod, but he soon discovers that Chian also invites a TikTok influencer named Bua (Leon Zech) to the same meetups. Feeling left out, Fou4Mod decides to make Chian jealous by getting closer to his best friend, Baabin (Mahidol Pibulsonggram).
