Suphapburut Juthathep: Khun Chai Taratorn

Khun Chai Taratorn is the first installment of the massive hit Thai period drama series 'Suphapburut Juthathep', which celebrates the pomp and romance of the mid-20th century Thai elite. The story follows Dr. Mom Rajawongse Taratorn Juthathep, an archeologist and the eldest of the five Juthathep brothers. Bound by a promise made by their late father to marry a descendant of the Theptharak family, Taratorn finds his life intertwined with the eccentric archaeology professor's daughters. Taratorn is tasked with working alongside Professor Chat, but complications arise when he falls for the professor's independent and bright daughter, Raweerampha, rather than the woman initially designated for him. As academic expeditions take them deep into historical sites, the two navigate misunderstandings, hidden family secrets, and societal expectations. The series blends romantic comedy, traditional cultural elements, and the strict social hierarchies of 1950s Thailand.
