Plot
[edit]Season 1 and 2
[edit]Wayo Panitchayasawad (Yo) is accepted to Kantaphat University in the Faculty of Sciences. There he reencounters Phana Kongthanin (Pha), a second-year student extremely popular he's long been in love with, though he had never managed to talk to him. When Yo has the chance to become the “moon” of his faculty, the two are thrust together as Pha, himself the former “moon” of the medical faculty, must supervise the freshmen participating in the competition. Despite a scathing first encounter, the two slowly get closer and closer. Ming is Wayo's best friend, he goes to engineering school and like Yo he is also chosen as "moon" to represent his school. One day meets up again Phana's friend, Kit, who also went to the same high school, but at that time his nickname was Kitkat, Kit has a strong character but Ming will do everything possible so that Kit ends up dating him. We also meet Phana's other friend, Beam, with whom Forth forms an unlikely bond and with whom he begins to court despite Beam's initial displeasure.
Season 3
[edit]Pha has to persevere in times of helplessness as Park and Pring have released incriminating photos and videos of Wayo. The story will show the progression of their relationship after that scenario. Ming and Kit will have to learn to develop and mature in their relationship, while Forth and Beam will also settle down and progress in theirs.
Two new couples are also included:
Lomnaw is Phana's cousin and starts at university. He is chosen to be the "moon" representing the faculty of agronomy. Unfortunately the results of the contest are not favorable for him. Then he finds out about another super handsome student, Tarntatch, who could have represented the faculty and won the contest if he had attended on election day.This is how these two start off on the wrong foot, but little by little they get closer.
We will also continue with the story of Suthee, the medicine moon.
