I follow them (the male ones at least) through the entertainment websites (see Wise Kwai's Thai Film Journal, Entertainment DIRTH Version, Bangkok of the Mind, and Lyn's Lakorn Blog). Also, fellow BKK-based Pinoy blogger, Man of the Rose, regularly features male Thai celebrities (and more) in various states of undress (beso, beso kumare!). Most of the time, however, I look them up in fashion magazines, which I simply couldn't get enough of.
For ages now, I've been planning to write about my favorite Thai celebrities and I do have a long list of them, so might as well start already, chai mai?
I first saw Nichkhun Horvejkul's face pasted on the side of the SkyTrain. He was on an ad for some orange juice or something. The moment our eyes met my ovaries did a thousand somersaults; I nearly fell on the tracks! Chowz!
A few days later I again saw his commercial in the cinema, and not to exaggerate, but he really took my breath away.
Da who is Nichkhun Horvejkul??? According to his Wikipedia entry, Nichkhun was born in 24 June 1988 in California where he was discovered by a producer of JYP entertainment, a South Korean talent agency. He is now a member of a seven-member Korean boy-band called 2PM since 2008.
The photo above was supposedly taken when Nichkhun reported for the lottery in which soldiers are drafted. It would be such a waste of talent if he were to join the military, chai mai?Because Korean pop culture is very big in Thailand (I mean they're CRAZY about everything Korean), perhaps it was not difficult for Nichkhun to quickly gain popularity in Thailand. I suppose many Thai celebrities could only dream of becoming K-Pop stars themselves.
Nichkhun is set to star in a Korean movie called The Shining Diploma (source).
Recently, Nichkhun was chosen by the Tourism Authority of Thailand as the face of "Come to Thailand; Let's Take a Break!" (official website here).Gosh, who could resist not coming to Thailand if the endorser is as cute as him, di ba?

You might add Bangkok of the Mind to that list. The Thai media wrote him up first; I followed; the others came after.
ang sarap naman.... pumunta sa thailand ha! hahaaha
Kawadjan Ganda,
Meron akong kumpletong set nung shirtless si Nichkhun, gusto mo? Napakasweet nya in person, cute & tall. Beso, beso amiga!
akala ko si romnick lang gusto mo.
love ko rin sya! gusto ko sya mameet. hininga pa lang nya mabubuntis na ako
i didn't expect to see Nickkhun here. Ahehehe... nice post.
I agree, (some)Thai men are hot!
Mario Maurer, for me atleast, by face value, hands down he's more arresting especially on print.
For a while, I thought I was crushing on Witwisit until I found out that I was actually fancying Mew and not him as Pchy. But I still say that he has the cutest face.
Nichkhun, initially I find him just one of those run of the mill looker until I got curious about the whole hullabaloo and did some research. I must say, after watching him bare his honest bearing in his Woody Talk interview (honest in a good-natured way) I became a fan! He's got charisma in buckets, the vibe he exudes is all positive, he's funny and incredibly beautiful, there is nothing not to not like about him unless one hates all of these qualities. How he was discovered is quite an interesting story and you have to give it to him by doing a great job seeing all his efforts translates in each and every outings for someone who admittedly banks primarily by his unbelievable cuteness.
ate kawadjan...
fan ako ni nichkhun... and if not with him, i won't be a fan of 2pm as well until there are 'sasaeng'fans unleased the dark side surrounding 2pm members (with the exclusion of Nichkhun, who so far, has the next cleanest record to jaebum). Anyway, nabalitan mo na ba? pumunta siya dito sa philippines to do some charity thing for the MBC show "Danbi" together with BEAST's Doojoon and Song Jihyo...
ang resulta? pinagkaguluhan siya sa airport nung dumating dito...check mo youtube ate....maaaliw ka talaga. kainis nga kasi hindi ko nakita si nichkhun in person kasi nasa work ako... (kainis!). Moreover, he received good feedback from Danbi crew and fans alike...

wow pilipinas! i'm speechless, i thought i knew how poor pinas is...
one sure thing after watching these 6-part 2 episodes is that you will love Khun even more!
i can not believe that Khun have been to pinas (bad light-depressing areas). if i were one of those screaming adulators, seeing Khun unexpectedly at NAIA? i think i'm just gonna die! I love him!
