This capstone project explores the world of Thai BL series promotion through protagonists’ personal social media accounts, exploring the enigmatic realm of direct interactions between Thai BL actors and their devoted fans on social media platforms. I aim to uncover the mechanisms behind heightened fan engagement. The study consists of two key questions: (1) Which social media platform most effectively fosters shipping behavior and increases engagement among fans of a Thai BL series’ male leads, and (2) what specific interactions between Thai BL actors and fans on social media correlate with the highest levels of fan engagement? To answer these questions, in-depth interviews were conducted with a total of 15 participants, including both fans and professionals in the field. The collected data were analyzed using a grounded theory approach and the development of a comprehensive codebook, leading to insightful findings.Contrary to expectations derived from extant literature, the findings reveal that Twitter (now referred to as X) is just the surface of a much deeper phenomenon. Fans’ attention transcends the platform itself, focusing more on the presence and interactions of the actors. The study unveils an array of captivating promotion strategies, including subtle public displays of affection and enduring interactions, shedding light on the intricate world of “shipping.” Additionally, the study demonstrates the pivotal role of fan-generated content in keeping enthusiasm alive. In the realm of interactions, commenting emerges as an unsung hero, weaving threads of authenticity and validation between actors and their dedicated fans. The impact extends beyond actor responses; even participation from producers and staff adds a touch of enchantment. It mirrors a celebrity rendezvous, where frequent engagement forges connections and narrows the divide between production and consumer.The capstone additionally addresses the practical implications of the present work, its limitations, and prospective directions for future research. In essence, this study illuminates the intricate panorama of fan engagement, yielding profound insights into the dynamic interplay of social media, the intricacies of the “shipping” phenomenon, and the captivating realm of Thai BL series.參考文獻 Baudinette, T.
