The Chemistry is a Thai BL workplace romance that has drawn attention for its straightforward premise and its split release strategy. The show airs a standard version on free TV in Thailand and a longer, uncut version on the streaming platform WeTV. The series premiered on Thursday, October 29, 2026, and runs for 10 episodes. The story follows an advertising director who falls for a new colleague, only to learn that the colleague already has a boyfriend. The cast is led by Bever Patsapon Jansuppakitkun and Tonliew Methaphat Chimkul, two actors who have worked together before. The uncut version is the main way international viewers can watch the show, and its episode schedule is set through early January 2027.
What โUncut Ver.โ Means for This Series
Thai television broadcasts operate under content rules that can shorten scenes involving intimacy, language, or mature themes. The Chemistry follows a common pattern for Thai BL series: the GMM25 broadcast carries a standard cut, while WeTV carries the uncut version. The uncut episodes restore material that the TV version leaves out. For viewers outside Thailand, the WeTV release is the primary access point, and it is the version most international fans seek out because it presents the series as the producers intended.
The uncut label is not a separate show or a spin-off. It is the same 10-episode story with additional footage in each installment. The TV broadcast and the streaming release follow the same weekly schedule, with the uncut episode arriving on WeTV after the GMM25 broadcast.
The Complete Episode Schedule: 10 Weeks, One Night a Week
The Chemistry airs one episode per week on Thursdays. The series began on October 29, 2026, and the finale is scheduled for January 7, 2027. That gives the show a 10-episode run across roughly 10 weeks, with the gap between the premiere and finale covering the holiday period in Thailand.
The full release calendar for the 10 episodes is:
- Episode 1: Thursday, October 29, 2026
- Episode 2: Thursday, November 5, 2026
- Episode 3: Thursday, November 12, 2026
- Episode 4: Thursday, November 19, 2026
- Episode 5: Thursday, November 26, 2026
- Episode 6: Thursday, December 3, 2026
- Episode 7: Thursday, December 10, 2026
- Episode 8: Thursday, December 17, 2026
- Episode 9: Thursday, December 24, 2026
- Episode 10 (Finale): Thursday, January 7, 2027
The schedule places the final episode in the first week of the new year, giving the series a clean finish after the December holidays.
Where to Watch: GMM25 for TV, WeTV for Uncut
Thai viewers can watch The Chemistry on GMM25 every Thursday at 8:30 p.m. ICT. The uncut version is available on WeTV and is exclusive to that platform. WeTV carries the uncut episodes for all 10 installments, and the platform is available in multiple regions, including Southeast Asia, the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Australia, and India.
WeTV typically releases the uncut episode shortly after the GMM25 broadcast ends, though the exact upload time can vary by region. The platform offers subtitles in multiple languages, including English, which makes the uncut version accessible to viewers who do not speak Thai.
For viewers in Thailand, the choice is between the free TV cut on GMM25 and the uncut version on WeTV. For viewers outside Thailand, WeTV is the main option, and it carries the uncut version as the standard release.
Global Release Timings for WeTV Viewers
The GMM25 broadcast starts at 8:30 p.m. ICT on Thursdays. WeTV releases the uncut episode later the same day. The table below converts the approximate WeTV release window into major global time zones, based on a release time of 9:30 p.m. ICT, which is when the uncut episode has typically arrived after the TV broadcast.
- United States (Eastern Time): 10:30 a.m. ET on Thursday

These timings are approximate and can shift slightly depending on WeTVโs upload schedule for each episode. The safest approach is to check the WeTV listing for The Chemistry (Uncut Ver.) on the Thursday of release. The platform updates the episode page with the exact availability time for each region.
The Story: An Office Crush With a Complication
The Chemistry is set in a small production company with only a few dozen employees. Jaab is an advertising director who is loud, blunt, and not afraid to speak his mind. He has a soft spot for horror movies despite being easily frightened, and he does not hide his opinions. Jane is a new assistant producer who joins the team and sits at the desk next to Jaab. Jane is polite, considerate, and calm in a way that contrasts sharply with Jaabโs personality.
Jaab feels an instant pull toward Jane. The series treats this as a one-sided spark at first: Jaab is convinced that the connection is real, while Jane treats him as a friendly colleague. The complication arrives when Jaab learns that Jane already has a boyfriend. The story becomes about Jaabโs attempts to manage feelings that may not be welcome and about the tension that builds when two people work closely together under awkward emotional conditions.
The showโs Thai title, เธเนเธฒเธเนเธเธ, is simply the two lead names joined together, which reflects how central the Jaab-Jane pairing is to the series. The English title points to the idea of instant chemistry, the feeling Jaab has when he first sees Jane. The title sets up the question the series explores: whether chemistry is enough when timing and circumstance are working against it.
The Cast: Who Plays Who
Bever Patsapon Jansuppakitkun plays Jaab. Bever has appeared in Be My Player Two, Fourever You, and 21 Days Theory. His role in The Chemistry casts him as the louder, more impulsive half of the lead pair.
Tonliew Methaphat Chimkul plays Jane. Tonliew has appeared in Fourever You and Absolute Zero. Jane is the calmer, more reserved character, and Tonliewโs performance sets up the contrast that drives the showโs early tension.
The supporting cast includes:
- Jeng Chotipat as Khanun
- Pentor Jeerapat as Mek
- Knomjean Kulamas as Biu
- Jara Jennifer Roberts as Chomphu
- Prince Trinapat and Dao Sao Naphonphat in additional roles
Jara Jennifer Roberts also appears in the GL series Built in Love, which airs on GMM25 on Wednesdays. That gives the channel a BL-GL pairing across two consecutive nights, with The Chemistry taking the Thursday slot.
The Source Novel and Production Team
The Chemistry is adapted from the web novel The Chemistry #เธเนเธฒเธเนเธเธ by summer december. The novel was published by DEEP and built a following before the series was announced. The adaptation keeps the core premise of the office romance and the one-sided crush, while expanding the supporting characters and the workplace setting for television.
The series is produced by Studio Outside Hitters, with the lead actors associated with Studio Wabi Sabi. The production team has not changed the novelโs central relationship dynamic: Jaabโs feelings arrive first and with force, while Janeโs situation creates the barrier that keeps the romance from moving forward easily.
What the First Episode Delivers
The premiere episode introduces Jaabโs daily routine at the production company and establishes his personality before Jane arrives. The episode spends time on the office environment, the supporting colleagues, and the moment Jaab realizes that his new desk neighbor has made an impression on him. The first episode also makes clear that Jane is not available, which sets the showโs central conflict in motion from the start.
Early viewer response has focused on the lead pairโs screen presence and the showโs production quality. The first episode was made available on WeTV for free in some regions, which gave international viewers a chance to sample the series before committing to the weekly schedule. A review on MyDramaList noted that the premise was easy to follow and that the visuals and production value stood out, while also pointing out that the pacing of the first episode did not hook every viewer immediately.
โHopefully everyone who watched the series today will be impressed and happy with every moment,โ SOH said in a post after the first episode aired.
How the Uncut Version Changes the Viewing Experience
The uncut version restores scenes that the GMM25 broadcast does not include. For a BL series, those scenes often involve longer conversations, more physical closeness between the leads, and moments that add texture to the relationship. The uncut episodes are not extended by a large margin, but the additional footage fills in gaps that the TV cut leaves open.
Viewers who start with the GMM25 version and then switch to WeTV for the uncut episodes will notice the difference in specific scenes rather than in the overall plot. The story beats remain the same, but the uncut version gives the characters more room to breathe.
