MANILA — For Thai actors Billkin Putthipong and PP Krit, the relatability and narrative of the queer series "I Told Sunset About You" and "I Promised You The Moon" were big factors that made them a hit.

In an interview with ABS-CBN News, Billkin said that the sincerity of their characters Teh (Billkin) and Oh-aew (PP) made international viewers feel their connection.

"I think it's sincerity, because during the work, we always keep the feeling to be true, be sincere. I think everyone can feel it, the feeling language in our show. And we’re very happy that they can feel our communication through our acting and also our songs," Billkin said.

PP also credited the other members of the cast, saying they helped shape the story of the protagonists.

"I think it’s not just about Oh-aew, maybe it’s like from the whole story. Maybe like the relationship part with Teh that bring us here and maybe about Oh-aew, I think he’s kind of really like— emotional too, and just kind of (a) true person," PP said.

Asked how they feel that their chemistry as a pair works, Billkin said: "Maybe it’s because we are very close in our real life too. Also that benefits our work because we can act.

"And some of the characters, they’re a lot from us too in life," PP added.

PP expressed his joy to finally meet their Filipino fans and make new memories with them.
