“I’m Tee, Me Too” is a Thai television series released in 2020 that falls under the genre of comedy, coming of age, drama, family, friendship, psychological, sitcom, and youth. X Nuttapong Mongkolsawas directs the series, which casts some of the well-known Thai BL actors, Krist Perawat Sangpotirat, Singto Prachaya Ruangroj, Off Jumpol Adulkittiporn, Gun Atthaphan Phunsawat, Tay Tawan Vihokratana, and New Thitipoom Tacha-apaikun.
The story revolves around six different individuals who share the same nickname, Tee. Each of them has a unique personality and backstory. The show starts with Watee (Krist Perawat Sangpotirat), who lives alone in a large house after his mother passes away. He is still in college and has to pay off some of the remaining mortgage on his house. To solve this problem, he decides to turn his house into a boarding house with one rule – every tenant must have the name “Tee.” This is how the six Tees end up living under one roof.
Throughout the series, we discover each of the Tee’s traumas and how they overcome them. Watee, who is the main character in the series, has a fear of abandonment due to being left by someone he loved. He is a quiet and reserved individual who denies his loneliness, but the presence of the other Tees in his house makes him feel loved.
T-Rex (Gun Atthaphan Phunsawat) is the second Tee in the series and has the most screen time. He also acts as a narrator to the story. There is a plot twist between T-Rex and Watee, as they have the same first and last name. T-Rex, who might suffer from autophobia, hates being alone.
Maitee (Singto Prachaya Ruangroj), the most mature Tee, is patient, wise, caring, and loves to cook. Later in the series, we discover that Maitee and Watee were childhood friends who had forgotten each other. Maitee struggles with euphobia – the fear that good news will end in tragedy. This fear stems from people making false promises to him when his father was dying.
Maetee (Off Jumpol Adulkittiporn) is the most timid Tee and has a phobia of anything that is related to the supernatural. Due to his mother’s threat of being haunted, he grows up afraid of the supernatural. Even when he uses the washroom, he asks another Tee to stay with him.
Overall, “I’m Tee, Me Too” is an engaging and heartwarming series. It shows the power of friendship and how a group of individuals with unique personalities can come together under one roof and change each other’s lives for the better.
