Yesterday Thai actor Perth Nakhun uploaded his rendition of a Japanese song, 木綿のハンカチーフ, on his YouTube channel. It was such a beautiful song and I love it. I then went looking for the version of the song he covered from sung by Hashimoto Ai 橋本愛, and then found out the original song was actually from 46 years ago, first released on December 21, 1975!

【Perth’s Kitchen】Som Tum / Green Papaya Salad
Now if you are thinking Perth here meant the city of Perth, you would be totally wrong, LOL… Perth is a half Thai, half Australian actor. He is one of the ensemble cast in the 14-episode Thai drama, My Engineer, which just has its finale episode over the weekend. Today his YouTube channel popped up with this cooking video, so I watched it… What? In the drama, he virtually did not have much dialogue as his character, Ram, is a very quiet person, very loyal to his friends, but does not talk to anyone he’s not familiar with. Then in this short cooking video, he did more talking than the whole of the 14 episodes of the drama, and in two languages, Thai and English with an Aussie accent! He is even fluent in Japanese too! That totally floored me, LOL…
Update June 21, 2020: Added My Engineer: Summer Trip (程心程意：番外篇) videos…
Update August 19, 2020: Added the official theme songs’ MV from the TV sereis, My Engineer (程心程意), which were released at the end of July… They even get the 7 actors to star with new scenes in the MV and not used scenes from the series…
