A Thai actor is planning to sue a barber at a shop located in the Thong Lor neighbourhood of Bangkok for cutting off part of his right ear.

 

The actor, 26 year old Natthapong “Oatmeal” Kanthathan, reported details of the incident on his TikTok account, @o.atx, yesterday, November 5. Oatmeal revealed that he is an actor with Mflow Entertainment and every performer in the company has to get their hair cut at the shop because the shop is owned by one of the company’s promoters.

 

Oatmeal went on to explain that he went to the shop with some colleagues on September 28 and the barber lobbed off part of his right ear. He was rushed to hospital and received seven stitches.

 

Oatmeal said the barber paid the 15,375 baht cost of the treatment but offered no compensation. The actor says he has lost a lot of income and career opportunities as a result of the wound. According to the actor, the barber gave him 1,500 baht for health insurance and refused to provide any further compensation for his losses.

Perhaps he could recoup some of his losses by playing the lead in any forthcoming Van Gogh biopic?

The barber who was named as Khun Sweeny said he was tired and blamed the accident on break failure.😉

The barber paid over 15,000 baht for "medical treatment". Didn't know bandaids were so expensive.

If anyone was ever in dire need of a nose job...

[freeworld]

In the photo it looks as though his nose has been treated as well.

Did they cut off the sides of his face too or did he always look like a banana?

Wouldn't work, this guy's right ear was cut, whereas Van Gogh's left ear was cut off.
