snoop1130 Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 Thai actor Atagorn Sonyot bravely confronted the producers of a series he starred in over unpaid acting fees. The actor’s public outcry for justice not only resonated with fans but also highlighted the plight of actors in the entertainment industry. Atagorn, better known as Tor, took to his personal Twitter account on Tuesday to express his frustration, questioning when he would receive his payment for the series that had already concluded its airing. “The series is over, what time will I get paid? No payment, no escape.” Atagorn’s post on X quickly became the subject of widespread attention on various social media platforms. The actor’s fans and colleagues from the entertainment sector rallied behind him, demonstrating the power of solidarity when facing injustices in the industry. This collective voice was a catalyst in pushing the issue into the limelight, demanding a fair resolution for Atagorn. His subsequent posts carried poignant messages. “Nothing comes for free, everything has its price. The more we stay silent, the more we allow ourselves to be mistreated.” Atagorn’s struggle with the situation was evident as he shared a metaphorical story involving characters A and B, which led to widespread speculation among netizens trying to decode the message. The emotional toll of the ordeal was apparent as he revealed the mental health impact it had on him, mentioning the need to seek psychiatric help and his battle with depression and panic disorder. This revelation sparked further support from his fan base, wishing him strength and a resolution to his predicament, reported KhaoSod. In the wake of the viral uproar, the young actor later hinted at a future disclosure, stating he would wait for an appropriate time to share more details, mindful of the potential implications for others involved. Atagorn’s firm stance on not remaining silent despite the conclusion of the series has been captured by the hashtag #EndButNotSilent, signalling his commitment to seeking justice.

hotchilli Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 With defamation laws as they are in Thailand it's hard to speak up and publicly shame those who use the system to their advantage. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikebell Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 I have written a quality Thai TV series. I have contacted local agents/companies (even in Thai); I have never even received an acknowledgement. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bangkok Barry Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 And the producers responded by saying ??? Did the red-hot Thaiger reporter ask them for comment? Why does AN persist in sending us such appalling 'journalism'? Every single day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grumpy one Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Did he stamp his foot when demanding to be paid. My sil does it when wanting something, never works on me, but I do get a good laugh out of the sad show Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Srikcir Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 There's nothing defamatory about not being paid to perform a contracted service and revealing such breach of contract. Still the actor treads very carefully because of how loosely defamation in Thailand has been defined that stresses constitutional freedom of speech.
