gulf admitted before that since mew (and consequently the whole S1 team/cast) started referring to him as Yai Nong he started referring to himself as "Nu"~ a small thread!
what does "nu/nuu" mean? https://twitter.com/Vtm_gulf/status/1330329073046888448?s=20">https://twitter.com/Vtm_gulf/...
likewise, Yai Nong is also normally used for females, and it& #39;s a cute way to address someone younger than you, so it makes sense that gulf would switch to use "nu" in relation to that https://twitter.com/tharntype05/status/1202482731805900807?s=20">https://twitter.com/tharntype...
my personal favorite: mew calling him "nu" (here translated as "kiddo") to compliment him for remembering the number of the booth where they were supposed to meet fans, and gulf automatically beaming at him

"nu" was used between them to refer to gulf/type a lot in past IG posts, such as this one: https://twitter.com/tharntype05/status/1222460625558720518?s=20">https://twitter.com/tharntype...
(you might remember "nu" as the pronoun Type uses in the series to refer to himself when he& #39;s talking to his dad, translated in the series as "lil& #39; man")
or in this one:

: "Children are the future of the nation, but if nothing goes wrong, Nu will be phi& #39;s (Mew& #39;s) future"" title="or in this one:https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="☀️" title="Sonne mit Strahlen" aria-label="Emoji: Sonne mit Strahlen">: "Children are the future of the nation, but if nothing goes wrong, Nu will be phi& #39;s (Mew& #39;s) future"" class="img-responsive" style="max-width:100%;"/>
(useless info time: "nu" seems to have dropped out of mew& #39;s pronoun choices in favor of "tua-aeng". it could be a coincidence but the timing is curious https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🌝" title="Vollmond mit Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Vollmond mit Gesicht">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🌚" title="Neumond mit Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Neumond mit Gesicht">)
going back to S1 time, here& #39;s a staff member mentioning how gulf complained about having to reshoot a scene with p& #39;mild, calling her "mom" and using "nu" as his pronoun of choice~
(please look at mew& #39;s absolutely endeared expression while he strokes his favorite tummyhttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🥺" title="Pleading face" aria-label="Emoji: Pleading face">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😭" title="Laut schreiendes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Laut schreiendes Gesicht">)
(please look at mew& #39;s absolutely endeared expression while he strokes his favorite tummy
apparently it was so common at the time that mild still uses it to this day https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🥺" title="Pleading face" aria-label="Emoji: Pleading face"> as you can see, gulf doesn& #39;t question it in the slightest https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😭" title="Laut schreiendes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Laut schreiendes Gesicht"> https://twitter.com/Vtm_gulf/status/1330325550838255617?s=19">https://twitter.com/Vtm_gulf/...
I& #39;ve found full trans + comments from this Insta post so I& #39;m adding it to the thread! as you can see gulf didn& #39;t hesitate to make everyone aware of the fact that the "nu" in question was gulf himself. the usual show off https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🙂" title="Leicht lächelndes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Leicht lächelndes Gesicht"> https://twitter.com/tharntype05/status/1215847899529003010?s=19">https://twitter.com/tharntype...
