Songkran Techanarong Archive

For those who hate Aff and Songkran together, get your hissing, tsking, ugging, oying, or whatever sound you like to make when you’re annoyed out of the way first and then read this post because you might explode with bitterness because Aff and Songkran are going to be slap in your face, lovey dovey with each other.

In an interview with IN magazine for their January issue where Aff and Songkran took the cover, Miss Aff and Songkran were asked to compare their relationship with a thing. Aff compared her relationship to a chocolate.

“Chocolate ka,” she answered. “Because I love to eat chocolate, there are several flavors of chocolate, sweet and bitter, once you eat it, you feel alive. But you can’t eat too much of it, you will get fat. However, if you don’t eat it, your life won’t be lively because you’re missing sweetness.”—so true. I, too, am a chocolate addict and can relate.

Then Songkran interjected and asked Aff, “is it delicious?”—Do you understand what he is asking? The chocolate is him, he is asking her, if she found him delicious.

She answered, “yes, it’s very tasty.” —what the fudge!

“All chocolates are delicious. Things that don’t make you fat, they don’t taste as good, ” she added.

Now it’s Songkran’s turn to answer.

“As for myself, it’s a secret. ” He said.

Aff probably laughed and probably said this in her very sweet, quiet, playful voice: “that’s not right…it’s love. Secrets, I forbid you to have one.”

But Songkran didn’t have a good answer, so he said understanding. That’s not a thing.

“What can I compare it too? I can’t think of anything. It’s more about the act of understanding more so,” said Songkran. Wow, this guy can be so dull. He’s alright, it was a cute interview. I’m warming up to this couple.

Just a few hours ago, “Aff” Taksaorn Paksukcharean and her ‘friend’ Songkran Techanarong were chilling out at the Bonanza Khao Yai resort, Songkran’s ranch resort. Aff went to support Songkran and to attend the Honda sponsored concert there. The media has been very impress with their relationship, it’s moving quite fast, beyond the media’s expectation. Not too long ago, they announced they were seeing each other, now both have met each others’ elders (parents) and Songkran’s family just adores Aff. They love her sweet and proper personality.

At the event, the media noted how Songkran was taking good care and being attentive to Aff.

I guess in Thailand it’s a crime to go grocery shopping with a guy companion in the evening. OH no, the evening! It’s dark and scary! What to do? We’re all adults here (well I am), news like these can be ridiculous.

So Aff went supermarket shopping with Songkran one evening and now it’s “NEWS”. Aff doesn’t sweat it because she did nothing wrong. She finds this all baffling because it’s just shopping at the supermarket. At the Seventeen Magazine Awards today at Central World, Aff gave responses to the news about her.

Firstly, the supermarket incident with Songkran:

“If going to the supermarket, I go there often, I go to several stores. It’s very perplexing, just to go to the supermarket, I made ‘news’. At this moment, it seems like everything I do it becomes an issue (news). The truth is I live my life normally. I eat, I go watch a movie, I go shopping at the supermarket, these are all very normal things. As for the news that I brought things (supplies) for Songkran’s condo, firstly, Songkran doesn’t have a condo. Secondly, everything I do, it becomes a source for news. Just buying things at the supermarket, it became an issue. But it’s okay. If you are doubtful of anything, you can ask me. Perhaps next week I’ll you see me at the supermarket again.” Aff said in a very proper tone. HAHA. Aff is becoming quite a character. I like her. She is sassy and proper at the same time.

Second question, does she fear that people will suspect they are living together because they went shopping together.

Aff forced a smile and answered the question. “Huh…if just shopping together, that means living together-that is probably not right. That’s not even close.  Like I have said, right now, I feel like news are being made up about me. It’s almost like a lakorn.  And, I have been very cautious, I just want to live my life like a normal person. I don’t want to hide because I have done nothing wrong. I don’t feel terrible. I just care about the opinions of people who read this (news about her). Lets just say that if you are suspicious of anything, you can ask me. I’m prepared to answer. I will clear everything.”—Well put, my dearest Aff. You are handling the media quite well. I’m impressed. I didn’t think you had it in you.

Lastly, she dispelled the rumor that she is traveling aboard with Songkran for New Years. She is not. She will be with her family.

“Definitely for New Years, I will be with my family. Because my mother and my younger sister are coming from America. My mother knows about Songkran. Personally, I have never kept secrets from my family. Everything about me, that has happened to me, I tell them (her parents). Songkran has met my parents on my birthday, they didn’t say anything. Right now, I don’t think I would do a couple event with him. People have made offers, but it has nothing to do with money. He works a lot and I work a lot. Right now there are many projects I have to consider. Both in scheduling and whether it fits my character.”

I’m not being mean, don’t even lie, you were thinking the same thing–Songkran’s younger brother looks like Bugs Bunny. No lie!

Aff and Songkran have maintained to the press that their relationship is not to promote Songkran’s resort or Songkran himself. But Songkran’s younger brother Phupa ‘Dan’ Techanarong mistakenly shed a different light about their relationship when he talked to the press.

“Kran making the headlines, I feel pity for him. To look at it another way, it’s okay too, we are able to promote Bonanza (their resort business). We are letting people know who we are. In this, I’m thinking in business terms. Myself and rumors with women, there is none. I’m overtaken by my brother. I’ll let him have it. It’s best I stay like this because I’m still young. I’m not in a rush, I’m going to study first. I’m not getting any girls. I’m not “HOT” like my brother Songkran (LAUGHS).

With Aff, I met her when she came over for dinner at the house. She’s good. She’s a cautious person. She has a good personality and is very loveable. I don’t know whether the people at my house give her the green light. I don’t talk to them about it. I have no right to give an opinion, it’s more of Songkran’s decision.”

So Aff and Songkran’s relationship is for business? Oh who cares.
