Project S: Side by Side

Project S: Side by Side follows the lives of two half-brothers, Gym and Dong, who share a deep, inseparable bond. Gym is a teenager with autism who possesses a natural talent for badminton, while Dong is his younger brother who serves as his dedicated partner and protector. Together, they navigate the challenges of competitive sports, family expectations, and the complexities of growing up, all while managing the unique hurdles posed by Gym's condition. The series explores the emotional dynamics of their family, particularly the sacrifices made by their mother, Mae Tum, who struggles to balance her love for both sons while facing the pressures of society. As the brothers strive to compete in professional badminton tournaments, they must confront internal conflicts, the stigma surrounding autism, and the realization that their partnership is both their greatest strength and their most significant vulnerability.
