Synopsis High school student Pan (Sureeyaret Yakaret) is an ardent shipper of her boy seniors, model student Kim (Kanaphan Puitrakul) and tough guy Way (Pusit Disthapisit), despite the fact that the two are only best friends and are both straight. She and her fellow Kim-Way shipper Soda (Kanyarat Ruangrung) are writing a yaoi novel about the two boys. Soon, things turn ugly for Pan and Soda, when Kim and Way gets involved in a fight with a bully who had read the novel and teased the duo for being homosexuals. Way, who is already in probation for previous offenses, gets expelled. Way's sassy girlfriend Phingphing (Benyapa Jeenprasom) learns about the Kim-Way yaoi and commands her friends to find and bring its authors to her. Overcome with guilt, Pan comes clean to Kim about the yaoi novel, but the kind-hearted Kim offers to drive her home. Pan and Kim get into an accident on the road and find themselves in limbo, where they meet Yommathut (Watchara Sukchum), the angel of death. The deity has appeared before them to lead them to the afterlife, though the two young mortals learn that they are not dead yet. Realizing her blunder, Yommathut sends them back to the mortal world but, in the process, she accidentally switches their bodies. Pan (Kanaphan Puitrakul) wakes up in a hospital only to find herself in Kim's body.
