Thirteen year old, ‘Ploy’ Patsorn Kongmeesuk, who rocketed to fame in the Thai film ” The Happiness of Kati” found filming for the upcoming Modern 9 lakorn “Tai Fah Tawan Diew (Under the same Heaven or Autumn Destiny)” with Mario Maurer and Chat Priayachat and several Korean pop stars very disheartening because she was repeatedly criticized for her acting.
“It was very difficult. When it was tiring, I had to endure it. At times, I have to admit, it was very disheartening, there were times I cried. But I’m lucky to have good parents, they gave me support. They told me it’s okay. You can be disheartened but you can’t give up, ” said Ploy.
Ploy was the youngest cast member and the one who was heavily criticized for her acting. “I was the youngest and I received a lot of criticism for my acting. During the love scenes, they said my look was very blank (empty), there was nothing there. When there was a long scene and you have to use your eyesight to express the meaning (the emotions of the scene), my look was blank again. There was nothing again.”
She cried heavily over the criticism. Luckily for her, she had supportive co-stars who gave her support and taught her to act better. “I cried a lot; however, my co-stars help teach me and gave me support. Right now, I might be lacking in my performance, I do apologize, but I will try to improve myself,” Ploy told the press.
Was it really that bad? I heard she was riveting in “The Happiness of Kati”.
I can’t believe they asked her this but they did, there is a rumor that Ploy had undergone plastic surgery in Korea and reporters asked her about it. She’s 13, I think it would be unethical if she did. Ploy said she had nothing done. “I have not done anything because I fear pain.”
Rumor has it that she has had 5 procedures done. Again, Ploy denied it. “What do you want me to have done? This is my chin, these are my eyes.” Though Ploy denied the plastic surgery rumor, the reporters pressed on and asked her more questions. She was ordered by her manager Ae to have something done. Again, for the 3rd time, she denied it. They have gone to see a doctor about her eyes but the doctors said she was too young, she is only 13.
Then they asked if Eli, from the Korean boyband U-kiss, secretly liked her because he did complimented her by saying she was narak (cute). Ploy doesn’t believe so. He probably sees her as a younger sister more so.
“He likes me as a younger sister more so because I’m a good talker, even though I get scolded or when I cry, either way I talk a lot, I’m a good talker. Personally, I like him only as an older brother.”
Pictures of Eli (real name: Kim Kyoung Jae) from the upcoming Modern 9 lakorn “Tai Fah Tawan Diew (Under the same Heaven or Autumn Destiny)” airing Saturday, January 16, 2010.
In the lakorn-Korean drama fusion, Ploy plays a young girl name Ji Joon, Eli plays Junsu, the guy her aunt wants her to marry. But Ji Joon loves Kim Minho (Mario Maurer), our lead guy.

Good gosh man, what have they done to you?


Here’s Ploy and Mario at the press conference

It’s Kim Kibum of U-Kiss not Kim Kibum of Super Junior.




Yea, May Fuengarom is in here too, she plays Ploy’s evil aunt.




Ryan is playing Chat’s boyfriend in the series. They met while studying in America.
Mario plays a young man who is out for a revenge on the man who he believes caused his father’s death. The man is Lee Chong Soo (“Ning” Nirut Sirijanya), Ji Joon (Ploy)’s father and Wendy (Chat)’s long lost father.
Ploy and Chat play half-sisters. Chat plays Wendy a half Thai-Korean young woman who goes to Thailand in search of her father to whom she believed abandoned her Thai mother.

I’m sorry if I offend anybody but ploy shouldn’t of been in Autumn Destiny. I mean its not about her acting or anything, shes just waaaaaaay to YOUNG! They paired her and Mario up but Mario is like 21 years old. Whenever I see them kiss I just find it so DISTURBING. It looks like shes being molested or something. Their 8 years apart. It would be okay if she was 16-20 but shes FRIGGIN 13. Nothing good has really come out of this show for her because shes being criticized and rumors are being spread. I say that she shouldn’t be in this drama and should probably star in a teen drama or movie. Seriously.
were i can watched autumn destiny with English sub because i can’t watch it yet because the other website has no English subs
hi am a new fan, do u hear any news about the two main actors? (Chat & Mario)
Phils.
Are most of you idiot!!! fusion dramas are the best!!! I have watched many Thai lakorn like this!! It’s natural, nothing wrong with mising cultures, it’s just a way to broaden our horizon!!! An some FYI it is called CREATIVITY!!!! DUUUH!!!! And another thing you people should know, a lot or should I say a majority of them are mixed!!! they are not full Thai!!! Look at Ploy, Mario and Chat, do they look full Thai? No they do not they aremimxed with either white or some other asian race!!! loook closelt for those of you who are blind!! I don’t mean to sound harsh or rude or impoilte but it is the truth!!! CREATIVITY IS NEEDED IN THE ENTERTAINMENT BUSINESS!!! THAI LAKORN WITH KOREAN IS CALL CREATIVITY!!! JAPANESE AND CHINESE DO SIMILIAR THINGS TO THIS DRAMA!!! SO QUIT TALKING BS PEOEPL!!! APPRECIATE!!!

BIG BABY hheheheee
wow… 13 years old baby. very cute but maybe people criticizes her cause she can’t really act cause she suppose to be acting older and she can’t really portray those feelings. SHE SO YOUNG. Thai directors are CRAZY. She does belong in disney,even Hanna Montana is older then her. Creepy. they have kids playing grown ups now. My niece is 13 and she is such a kid, she suppose to be kid. Cant believe that she just 13 not even 16. She does look old with bunch of makeup poor down on her. Poor kid, she probably doesn’t even know what shes doing. Lucky her she gets to stare at eli. Stay a kid. it funner.
Child molester!!!!! She is only 13. Unbelievable. Not that I am against her acting but as leading lady. Oh no. Yep I repeat OH NO! I understand if it was Disney channel but what again. Oh geez about the topic on plastic surgery. She’s like still a baby, and they ask her such question.
LOL@ Mario looking like Pinocchio
