Uploading the Korean dream
Life, Onsiri Pravattiyagul, Published on 27/03/2015
» Nathamon "Nutty" Kongjak was only seven minutes late, but she apologised profusely, to the point of mutual embarrassment. For a net idol with 3 million followers, and a budding artist who has just released an album in Korea, Power Of Nutty, there's something disarming about Nathamon, especially when the general consensus of net idols and K-pop stars tends to lean on the negative side.

A Stamp of approval
Life, Onsiri Pravattiyagul, Published on 06/08/2014
» Apiwat Eurthavornsuk would never be described as traditionally handsome. But there's something endearing about the combination of his droopy eyes and upwardly curved lips, which give the impression of an etched-in smile, that complements his easy-going, good-tempered, everyman persona.

Our phone obsession is less than smart
Life, Onsiri Pravattiyagul, Published on 25/02/2015
» I've never been one to care what people have, or don't have. Well, sometimes I care whether they have brains, intellect, manners and, OK, a little taste would go a long way in my book, too.

Life, Onsiri Pravattiyagul, Published on 18/07/2014
» Showtika Somjid’s pseudonym was suggested by the names of a mentally disturbed couple, Nola and Nolee, who lived rough in her neighbourhood; they were familiar faces, often seen roaming the streets, but they never caused any harm to anybody. Showtika said she never meant to spark off speculation that there might be deep, philosophical reasons for her adoption of “Nolanolee”, the moniker she uses to sign the art she creates. She just thought it sounded like a “cute and friendly” tag and said she sometimes wonders what combination of events brought that pair of homeless people to that juncture in their lives.

My cross to bear
Life, Onsiri Pravattiyagul, Published on 09/10/2013
» Last weekend, one of my best friends and his fashion brand-founding wife gave me a belated birthday present. It was an oversized, cross-shaped, glow-in-the-dark necklace decked out in hand-sculpted daisies and pearls, an item from his wife's latest collection. Even though it's cross-shaped, the necklace didn't strike me as having religious overtones as it has been stylishly manipulated into an amazingly well-crafted accessory. I love it so much that I wore it two nights in a row when I was out about town over the weekend.

» When RS Promotions branched into luk thung music in 2001 with its R-Siam label, few people took much notice. But in the decade since, it has steadily gained a stronghold on the grassroots country music genre, and given it a facelift _ in terms of presentation, sound manipulation and content _ in the process. The offshoot currently houses more than 90 solo artists and groups _ the biggest stars of the luk thung circuit among them.
