Thai tv series or Thai dramas have been getting known, and eventually getting popular among some of Asian countries.
After a long time a number of Asian fans were stunned by Hong Kong series, then there was some changed, the fans have been in love with Japanese series, later South Korean tv dramas have been influencing Asian and so many western fans, and of course Thai fans, who never stop their hearts of loving in getting to learn a new culture, Thai tv series (in Thai is Lakorn TV Thai) have been making its improvement in many aspects to win Thai fans’ hearts and finally to win Asian fans’ hearts.
Todays, Thai lakorns are considered one of successful types of foreign tv program in China (a large population) and getting more well-known worldwide because of demand of alternative tastes. Internet has also made the world closer. New tastes are what being welcome. Thai taste is also one of them.
Even Thai taste in Thai lakorn is getting higher demands from its fans, many who have watched (tasted) them (including so many Thai fans) have been requiring advancement in Thai lakorns.
Thai lakorns owns “Thai styles” presenting the ways Thai people live, not saying it is 100 %, but very similar and when they are in-depth scrutinized, Thai lakorns are telling something about Thai people and Thai culture.
MThai Inter has brought you some of what named it is a Thai-style tv series with some cultural explanations.
Thai-style leading role actor (Pra-Aek)
What are Thai pra-aeks like?
1. A pra-aek is always obviously wealthy.
Explanation: That seems to be a highly recommended thing for being a pra-aek that he is somehow rich. Not only a Thai norm about being affluent is better, it is also an agreed-norm in most parts of the world that being rich is making easier living for everyone than a poor. The wealthy pra-aeks would be attracting some of people and some of situations leading to love, hate, murdering, crime and so on making the series more interesting and attracting more attention.
Thai lakorns (most of them) do not educate the audiences (Thai people) about what and how a person as a professional makes money. It seems vague about what their pra-aeks are doing for a living.
No worries, they are, somehow, rich. Look how rich they are and how come?
- Over 70 % of all Thai pra-aeks are from affluent families. One of the charms of a Pra-aek is from his money attracting both good and bad things/sorts of people to his life. The wealth-born man with comfortably living is what anyone wishes to have. Thai lakorns are making the dream come true.

- A pra-aek owns an island or more, or a luxury fully furnished beach house or a luxury castle with a picturesque mountainous view and the place has always been looked after by a couple hired for only taking care of the house and join a few scenes butlering the family’s members visiting. Oh ! so V V VIP
- A pra-aek owns or holds a high rank in a company.
2. It is a must that pra-aeks is always the best-looking guy in the series.
Explanation: It is necessary for the fan clubs when the attractive guys they love are the series’ pra-aek. The best look one in the series is easily getting the audiences in a dream, at least a few hours / a day.
3. A pra-aek is always intelligent or smart or whatever in a kind.
Explanation: Intelligence, clever, smart, highly educated are always one of good requirements of a pra-aek. It is possible that a smart man is always needed in a story especially they are pra-aek, who needs to be able to handle any difficult and issue no one could ever do.
However, this is also found around international genres that many of people need heroes to protect them, to fix and lead them to do something.
Some of odds found about their intelligence.
- Even they are so smart and very well-educated, but a pra-aek doesn’t know the scams that the bad girls and bad guys in the series do. Ouch ! that is a nature of a Thai series. A pra-aek simply believes others and leaded to be the misunderstandings to the leading role girl (nang-aek).
- To prove how well-educated a pra-aek is, a pra-aek is always graduated from the US, the most popular country referred in a story. The UK or Canada, Australia, Japan and China, oh.. India are very less. Oh again, Thailand is also popular, when the series are not focusing the point of well-educated pra-aeks.
- No matter how wise he is, he always can’t recognize Nang-aek with different hairstyles, put the moustache on or wearing hat and doesn’t know that his nang-aek disguises as a man.
- A pra-aek is basically good at everything, for example, cooking, fighting with bullies or gangsters, or working as a management. No matter what he has been trained to be or raised, you know by his family, his childhood, his subject he educated, his office job, his business circling in a luxury place, an office, a hotel, things like that, but Thai pra-aeks can fight like a pro.

tough-life background, yet he can fight with 2 bad guys easily. Cr.

4. A pra-aek is always be surrounded by lots of girls or most of the girls seem to be falling in love with him.
Explanation: Yeah ! a pra-aek must be like a charming prince and a male idol who has his own fc to confirm how great he is.
5. A pra-aek is possibly easy to be influenced by his family.
Explanation: It is a Thai culture, while family influencing in the families members’ lives. Mothers are the biggest part of the influencing scenes in Thai lakorns. They can be the key leaders of drama (too emotional and unreasonable) found in the series.
Mothers always want their son (most of them are pra-aeks) to get married to a girl they like, most of them are not the leading role actress (Nang-aek) in the series dragging them to a conflict.
Guessing it happens almost everywhere to lots of families.
6. A pra-aek can do no wrong to his nang-aek.
Ouch ! that is very creepy for a girl
when a man can do no wrong to you, when you are not a nang-aek of the
series. Thai lakorns’ pra-aeks are most of the times doing something
criminally whether force-kiss (ouch ! that is a sexual harassment), an
arm or wrist grabbing, push a nang-aek (mostly to the bed, @#% sigh),
kidnapping the nang-aek in order to revenge for whatever he has been
pushed to do and even rape a girl ( 
– he is a criminal, not the one to beloved).
Watch some of force kiss scenes 
Series
called Jamleuyrak or Loving Hostage, no way I won’t love you for this,
Harit. Athichat (Pra-aek) kidapped Thaksa-orn (Nang-aek) with his
misunderstanding. Cr. Komchadleug
After the harsh things a pra-aek who
is full of vengeance in his heart DID something bad to the girl
(nang-aek), he is still, to the audience, a beloved one.
