Host: As of now, how many dramas/films have you working in China?
Umm... from the middle of previsous year, it's about 4-5 dramas/movies. I'm not sure.
I don't count the dramas/movies that I was just a guest star in some scenes.
I've been a guest star in well-known dramas there.
and dramas/movies that I took a main role.
which is Wu Xin Fa *** that I took the role of Chicken Angel series in China
and another one which is just on cinema. It's my first movie in China.
the comedy version of Journey to the west which was remade based on the well know series in China
Host: Why did you decide to take the role of Zhu Bajie?
It looks so different from you.
Yes, when they contacted me to take a role in Journey to the west, I thought only two roles: Sun Wukong or Xuanzang.
I thought that, but when they told me Zhu Bajie, I ...
Host: How did they convince you to take this role?
They told me it's the comedy version of Journey to the west. So, I got it.
This role would be outstanding.
It would make the movie colorful. I could steal the thunder.
if I can image myself in the role, I will choose to take the role.
In the movie, there were two characters got most trouble: me as Zhu Bajie and Sun Wukong.
He was the most. He wore special effect makeup all his face.
When they made the silicone molds for my character, I was up the hill which the air is thin.
That time, I almost died because they had to wrap my whole body.
It's hot and odor. I couldn't breath and the air is thin also.
When they took it off, I was faint and fell down.
Host: how long did you shoot the movie?
It's about weeks.
Host: How was the feedback?
It's more than my expectation.
It's great and made me surprise like the name of movie.
The movie named "Surprise"
I was surprised that the feedback was great.
The production team in China was so happy. They told me this movie was really popular.
Host: How was the reaction of fans there? How many fans do you have in China now?
a lot more and more.
Host: Let's talk about your Chinese fans. Do they know when you arrive there?
Mostly, I will announce in advance in case of that time I can allow them to see me.
But If I go in private or it's a confidential job, I won't tell no one. But some of fans know it anyway.
One time, I went there with P'***. It's the Mike&Aom meet and greet.
He came with us to shoot his TV show at Shanhai.
I didn't expect anything. I had no idea about China. I didn't expect a lot of people.
When I heard there wre a plot of fans welcome us at the airport, I thought they were about 10-20 people.
But when I arrived there, the meeting point area were crowded with people all along the way.
Host: I heard that your famous is far away to Russia.
Umm... I have... I have fans there...
At first, I knew I had fans in AEC: Vietnam, Indonesia, Philippine, Malaysia... China... in the zone.
China
some countries in this zone.
But later, I've just known I have fans in Brazil. They send messages to me. They are from Brazil.
They are lovely. They made me surprise.
They gathered the picture of Brazilian fans showing the message sign that said "MikeComeToBrazil"
and put hashtag to me in Instagram.
I saw and thought what it was. Then, I clicked to take a look and surprised.
Many of them in Brazil put hashtag to me.
I would like to give something in return.
I would like to have activity in their country to give them a chance to see and talk to me.
Host: Let's talk about your monkhood period? How was it. Did you get anything from ordination?
I got a lot from only 10 days in monkhood. It's unbelievable.
I had time to stay with myself, learned a lot about myself.
Ordination didn't change any karma or anything, but it changed action more than karma.
It changed myself and corrected something inside myself.
In the past, I had many problems and many things to made me stress out.
People around me got stress out because of me.
Many factors made problems. Many negative things was coming in my life.
Actually, ordination didn't solve these problems. It didn't make the problem disappeared.
But the thing got better is myself. It seems I myself was cleaned.
After leaving the monkhood, I know how to solve my problems consciously.
During that time, I went to Chiang Rai province to see Master V. Vajiramedhi
I learned many things.
I met Monk Karen. P' *** also met him.
Host: Where does this monk come from? Is he a foreigner?
He is a foreigner. He can speak Thai a bit.
We hit it off. So, we were monk friends during that time.
I learned many things.
One night, while I was walking, Master V. Vajiramedhi asked me when is your last time?
I responded "Yes"
When is your last time you were walking at night and looked at stars and thought nothing?
I was......still. I couldn't recall when.
I couldn't recall when was my last time I look on sky to just look at stars.
I couldn't recall it because I always look at the ground and walk, walk, walk...kept walking.
While I keep walking, I forget to look straight and look around to see many things.
Host: I feel you are happier after I hadn't seen you for a few months.
Last time, I was a guest in the series you played. During that time, you looked very stress out, didn't you?
There were many problems. I kept them all.
If you ask me "Do I have suffering?" I will answer "yes I do"
I have both happiness and suffering, but it depends how to handle it, how to manage it,
how to live with it consciously, how to calm down and how to realize we have problems?
Host: It's interesting. I'm glad you found the way out and went for ordination to relief yourself. You look fresh.
Host: Let's talk about Thai fans. We have been talking about your work abroad.
Host: For Thai fans, when will they see your work again?
There is not much work in Thailand.
Actually, Journey to the west was bought into Thailand.
I think the social network is connecting around the world nowadays.
It seems like wherever I have my work in this world, it finally will be into Thailand.
If you ask me "Will I play a Thai drama?",
I think this year I might have 1 drama in the end of year
because my working schedule in China is tight.
If I could clone myself, I would do it.
Sometimes, I have the funny thought like...
Let Golf play that drama in the name of Mike because many people can't distinguish between Golf and Mike.
Sometimes, people call me "Golf" and I turn and say "yes"
I always "yes" I'm lazy to correct. I can do nothing.
Host: How about your music work?
I have some new songs but I can't find a good timing or a good project to launch it.
So, I keep it for a good time.
It's a song to give an encouragement.
In the past, I usually compose only dance song or sexy song.
At this moment, I want to compose songs from my experience
to encourage people having problems in life, being frustrated or whatever.
I mix modern music like EDM with lyric
which gives an encouragement to keep fighting in life.
I think it's something important.
Host: It's really great.
Host: Today, after I talked to him, I feel he is more mature. I'm glad that you look really happy.
Thank you
Host: I'm glad everything I heard his news. He has a good future in showbiz both in Thailand and abroad.
Host: Today, I'm more glad to see him glow with happiness, more peaceful, and know how to be happy.
Host: This important is you can look at stars.
Host: After talking to him. I hope you will get some inspiration from this guy.
Host: I believe everyone still stay tuned to watch Mike's next work in Thailand both drama work and music work.
Host: That's all for today. thank you everyone for watching and thank you Mike for coming today.
Thank you
