Never Let Me Go

As the only son of an extremely wealthy family, Nuengdiao Kiattrakulmethee (Phuwin Tangsakyuen), grew up with the world at his feet. Now a high school senior, Nuengdiao knows that someday he’ll be expected to take over the family business. But when his father is murdered right in front of him, the gravity of his position as his family’s heir apparent becomes painfully clear. Fearing for her son’s life, Nuengdiao’s mother hires “Palm” Pannakorn Jannaloy (Pond Naravit Lertratkosum), the son of a loyal family employee, to act as his bodyguard. Secretly enrolling Palm in her son’s elite school, Nuengdiao’s mother tasks him with shadowing her son. Following Nuengdiao relentlessly, Palm’s overzealous work immediately tips Nuengdiao off to his mother’s plans. Frustrated by his mother’s overprotective nature, Nuengdiao treats Palm with disdain, but the faithful bodyguard never once relents in his task to keep Nuengdiao safe.  Resigned to his fate, Nuengdiao allows Palm to continue in his duties. With time, Nuengdiao’s opinion of Palm begins to soften as the two experience the ups and downs of high school together. Drawing ever closer, Nuengdiao and Palm begin to recognize they share a strong connection but do they dare allow the feelings blossoming between them to grow any further? A story of young love found in unexpected places, “Never Let Me Go” is a 2023 Thai romance drama directed by Jojo Tichakorn Phukhaotong.
