TBT: The Boy Who Played Young Mew in “Love of Siam”

For our Throwback Thursday, let’s have a look at the boy who played the young Mew in the 2007 hit movie, “Love of Siam”.

While Kao Jirayut Laongmanee (who portrayed the young Tong in the movie) continued pursuing his showbiz career after Love of Siam, young Mew a.k.a. in real life as Arthit Niyomkul seemed to have mellowed down. Nevertheless, I’m pretty sure that you are more curious on how does he look like now. Wait no more dearies, here’s the young adult Mew now…

And early this year (January 22), Arthit was seen in yet another “somewhat homoerotic”, horror-comedy flick called, “Ror Door Khao Chon Phee Thee Khao Chon Kai” produced by Poj Arnon (of “Bangkok Love Story” fame). The story revolves a number of schoolboys in Kanchanaburi’s Khao Chon Kai military boot-camp where they took part in Thailand’s version of the Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps (JROTC) and twisted with a pair of ghosts for them to contend with. Here are some of the behind-the-scenes (BTS) pics of Arthit…

The movie is just a so-so one (according to most of the reviews I’ve read), but if it’s for any consolation (at least to tickle the gay patrons), here’s a “highlight” scene of the movie with these schoolboys in a shower scene…and yes, that’s Arthit (in printed trunks)! 

Another bonus BTS pic, a “promising” Arthit for you 😉

Azkals Also Made News For Philippines On November 24, 2012

Three global beauty pageants were held yesterday: Miss Earth 2012 in Manila in which our very own Stephany Stefanowitz was crowned Miss Air; Mister International 2012 in Bangkok as I foreseewherein our representative did not make it even as one of the finalists (proving that the phrase, “The third time’s the charm” is not really always the case when a back-to-back victory for Philippines eventuated both in the Land of Smiles earlier this month for Kevin Balot who nabbed the title Miss International Queen 2012 and for June Macasaet who won the Manhunt International 2012 belt); and last but not the least, a 1st Runner Up victory for Andrew Wolff on the Mister World 2012 competition held in Kent, England.

But you see, it’s not just “beauty & brains” day for the Philippines yesterday. It was also about sports as our very own Azkals (portmanteau of Filipino slang term, “Asong Kalye” or “Street Dog”) did their very best to score at least 1 goal over Thailand‘s War Elephants who tallied 2 goals at Rajamangala Stadium here in Bangkok during the opening of the Group A matches in the 2012 AFF Suzuki Cup.

The Azkals will have two more round of games to wrap up this week hoping to emerge victoriously over Vietnam on November 27 and with Myanmar on the 30th.

In the long run, I just want to congratulate each and everyone of them whether they represented our country on the stage of pageantry or in a sports arena…for making us Filipinos so proud. Mabuhay to all of you!

With that angelic face and hot body, I just wonder why Justin did not make it at all . . .
