At the beginning of the year, Netflix unveiled its entire 2024 Thai slate, including seven shows and one movie. So far, the only Thai show released this year is the romantic comedy series Ready, Set, Love. Next up is the crime drama series The Believers, which you'll want to check out. It's set to be released on Netflix on March 27.
The Believers is a much-anticipated Thai Netflix original helmed by Wattanapong Wongwan. Wongwan is also known for directing all episodes of the Thai drama series Someone.
