## Synopsis

The Wicked Game (2025) is a Thai boys' love thriller miniseries created for ONE 31 and iQIYI International. Its protagonist, the abandoned heir Than (Pittaya Saechua), wages a campaign against his ruthless father to expose him and seize the family empire. Pheem (Kantapon Jindataweephol) and Thanet (Natthawut Skidjai) circle the scheme as figures whose loyalties and desires pull against it, while Jet (Kitsakorn Kanogtorn) and Arisa (Monchanok Saengchaipiangpen) add further pressure from the family and business world. The engine is a plan that keeps running into betrayal and attraction at once, so every episode tests whether the heir can trust anyone near him. The series is a ten-episode, roughly 47-minute miniseries with a single continuing storyline, built around power plays, bodyguard and police-officer entanglements, and secrets inside a wealthy family. Its mood is tense and romantic, with a brooding atmosphere of deception and longing. Set in contemporary Thailand, it spans urban boardrooms and private homes. Viewers who enjoy Succession's family power struggles or the romantic intrigue of Thai boys' love dramas will find resonance here.
