Synopsis: “Bangpan Sisters” is a 12-episode drama based on the true story of four women in a rural village in 1992 who defied societal norms by selling adult products. Despite the taboo surrounding the topic of sex at the time, the sisters were determined to bring a positive and open-minded approach to the intimate lives of couples. Their journey of independence, personal growth, and friendship is a testament to their resilience and courage in a time when the mere mention of “sex” was considered scandalous. This remake of the British drama “Brief Encounters” (2016) follows the sisters’ struggles and triumphs as they navigate through a secretive world and pave the way for themselves. The drama, airing on Saturdays and Sundays, is rated 15+ for teenage viewers.
