Joy Rinalee’s interview with TV-Inside magazine

You don’t hear much about Joy Rinalee, nang’rai from “Jamleuy Ruk (Defendant of Love)”. She does her thing, model on the side, film lakorns quietly. When it’s time to promote her lakorn, she promotes. No fuss, no drama. Very discrete. Even in this interview she doesn’t disclose much. Rather than giving a concise answer about her love life, she diverts the question by saying there are different types of love, a relationship love between a man and woman is not important as other types of love–friend love, family love, love for work are more important. Younger actresses should learn a thing or two from Joy about keeping their personal life private. Being private gives you longevity in this business.

Nichkhun has a girlfriend Part 3

Nichkhun’s Mnet Love Scandal episode is out! It’s so cute. They acted very “real” with each other, it’s like they were long lost friends. Very natural.

They didn’t exchange numbers because he didn’t want to hurt her. Being a celebrity gf is not an easy thing.

Some parting words from Nichkhun and his pretend girlfriend Minsun, translated by someone at youtube

Khun: I couldn’t be the right, good man for her… I was really sorry.. Minsun is a very caring, cute, and pure girl…and so I hope she meets the right guy for her…
Minsun: I felt that.. it wasn’t really because he didn’t like me, and that it was also for me… saying that I should really meet a nice person…
Khun: I was happy to be with her for 7 days..
Minsun: I was happy every time I saw him… I will never forget these memories..

Dew Palace: Ep 1 Summary

Hmmm….is my initial thought. I like Pinky and Tawin together; however, I can’t say I’m fond of the story. Already, I’m annoyed and I know will continue to be annoyed with “Poo” Mantana Hosiri’s character till the conclusion of this lakorn. The first episode was all over the place–ghost, mystery, secrets, grudge, Poo Mantana’s craziness.

I will continue on for this scene…

…hopefully it will be coming up real soon, like in the next episode. If not, I will stop watching.

Aum Patcharapa inside Kwanruen Magazine

Thirty-one year old “Aum” Patcharapa Chaichuea is featured inside Kwanruen Magazine with two very young, still in high school boys for Kwanruen magazine’s late May 2009 issue. I only recognize one of them, the one wearing the light blue almost turquoise polo shirt is Nadet “Barry” Kugimiya, Aum’s co-star from her Trident gum commercial. I like the color, the touch-up, the simplicity of it all.

I like her “NEED MORE LOVE ♥” Shirt. HAR HAR.

Captain has a girlfriend!

No way! Yes Way! They have been dating for a year too. Really? Yah!

Get this, they knew each other since they were children, since elementary school. It’s like a script from a lakorn, childhood soul mates reuniting after a long separation. He hadn’t seen her in 14 years, then randomly she comes back in to his life and they have been dating for a year. Wa? Awesome or what?

He said the story of their reunion is very long and complicated, he could write a book about it. She is bold, lady-like, honest, and sincere–these are the qualities that attracted Captain to his current girlfriend. When they were 7-8, they were bicycling buddies, they rode their bikes around the neighborhood with other children, they were like a gang. This totally reminds me of the movie “Fan Chan (My Girlfriend)” . Captain still has the bike stored at his house. CUTE! The reporters even asked him if it was like the movie “Fan Chan (My girlfriend)”, he said it has the same feeling.

Will he marry her? He is unsure. He wants to wait, be prepared to fully take responsibility for her, and get to know her even better.

The reporters pressed on and asked whether she could be the one and the future mother of his children. Captain laughs.

Then Captain ruined it for me, he said it’s not LOVE, it’s more about responsibility. What does that mean? Did you get her pregnant? I had to cross that out, it was pretty rude of me.

What the reporter asked, “This time around, can you call this love or not?”

“In love, there is nothing like that, like when you’re young. I don’t know how to explain it. It’s more about responsibility we have for each other. It’s something like that. It’s not like we’re “Be In Love” and have to call each other every hour. It’s more like how an adult must take responsibility for another person. Just like that.”—I think what Captain is poorly explaining is that his relationship is mature and not clingy. He doesn’t need to assure her he loves her every hour. They are not kids anymore, they are adults.

He never revealed her name, she is not in the Entertainment business.
