* The Host asks Kik which scene he likes the most *
Kik talks about how he likes the fact that Saming Sornnoi (his character), has 4 wives.
*James teasingly says, "Isn't it 7 wives?"*
* The host then refers to the day when there were several "female extras" when they were filming Saming Sornoi's scenes with his wives - James then goes on to add ...
J: I went to film and I was like... "why are their so many actresses? because normally, there are only men and there aren't that many women. But, there were so many (that day)."
H: In actuality...
J: They were all his wives. *points at Kik*
J: We were filming and they would (take turns) walking in and out of the scene about 7 times.
H: Oh really? So that's why you thought he had 7 wives.
J: *nods*
H: And he pretends to NG about 3 times... *jokes*
19:05 - * The host asks about the wedding night *
James' reaction was... "oh....." then he puts his fingers up on his temples and looks shy. Matt covers her mouth and giggles.
J: Why are you giggling?
M: And why did you have to be that serious? *giggles*
H: Do you believe, (he talks to the viewers) that during the wedding night scene, naturally the woman is supposed to feel shy and awkward but Matt says it was, "chill chill". Matt says she was comfortable. But this guy was about to die, my viewers. Please tells us about it.
J: Uncle, (everyone refers to the host as "uncle") I understand how they do the modern day wedding night but before we can *he apologizes about having to say this part* .... before we could get anywhere it took about an hr. I had to talk about this and that.
H: It took a long time (in order to get to the intimate part).
J: Yes. I had to speak for so long. The p'ek, Haym has to say, "I am this and that. You are this and that (to me)..." professing his love that way. That part was hard.
H: Oh, it was hard... Did you have to be poetic?
J: Yes, it was very poetic. I had to metaphorically compare her to this and that and also describe my love for her.
H: Instead of _____ . (the host paused for emphasis)
J: Yes, instead of hugging each other right away.
H: Oh, you had to speak (of love) first.
J: By the time we were able to hug (each other) I was sweating so much.
H: And the person who had to speak was, you? Her on the other hand was acting shy.
J: She would be acting like how they were in the beginning. *referring to when Saimai said her character only had short dialogues* Saying, "Jao ka, jao ka" (proper "yes)
H: How was he in that scene? *asks Matt*
M: James? His hands were shaking like this. *imitates*
H: Shaking? *laughs*
M: Yes, shaking. But really, we were both shy. If I had also shown nervousness, we wouldn't have been able to act. *host agrees* This was also a scene we had to pass over at first because.. *James adds* J: we still haven't "connected". M: When it's a period lakorn we don't really have "love scenes (skinship)" from the pranang. It's even hard to have hand holding. When we want to exchange flower garlands, we have to be careful not to make contact. So with this scene, the wedding night... I mean we are close, James and I, we speak but we haven't had this much skinship. And for the wedding night scene, we had lots of skinship. Therefore, we were both shy. James was shaking and I, my mouth was stiff. But the second time around, it was okay.
J: We had 1 NG.
H: 1 NG. The first was "th-th-th" (stuttering)
J: Something like that. I was nerve wracking and I also didn't know what to do because it's a different way of expressing love. *host agrees* Also, as what P'Matt mentioned, we haven't had that many scenes together or scenes where we connect (have skinship). Most scenes were, "I am going now" and when I get back I would just bring her a flower garland. That's all.
H: That's all.
J: Yes.

* The host then brings up that James said there was a scene that Saimai did where she played it perfectly *
* James mentions it was the scene where Saimai breaks up with him. *
* Saimai says the scene was actually very hard because, "who would want to break up with Khun Haym?" *
* The host goes on about how people were saying Saimai played that scene so realistically. He then quotes what James said about that scene. *
Quote: "She left me in a pain so great I felt it deep in my heart".
* James then goes into the scene about how he felt about it *
* The host then teases Saimai about how it's probably easy for her. Saimai says, it was very hard. *
* Saimai then says she was able to do it because James did very well in conveying his feeling to her. And how James is good with expressing all the feelings whenever she's in a scene with him*
* James thanks her *

* The host asks Matt about her dancing scene she did at the military camp base. *
* He explains how Matt felt that she wasn't only dancing with the audience she could see but she also felt like there were others watching as well. *
* Matt then explains the scene. She says it was a very important scene because the folktale she was portraying is an old tale. *
* She had to make preparations before dancing because performers, esp. dancers, usually have to pray to the (deceased) teachers, before starting. It's tradition. *
* James & Kik both agrees that Matt danced very beautifully that day. *
* James added saying that Matt mentioned there was a difficult move, but she did it effortlessly and he was astounded. *
* The host teases that he didn't have to be astounded because Matt probably wanted to get that scene over with. She was most likely scared of the supernatural. * (everyone chuckles)
- Ends 25:10
* The last part was about James interacting with his elephant. He explains that he had to basically get the elephant to be comfortable around him by hanging out with it for a whole day. He also fed the elephant with some of his saliva (ew, lol) because that would ensure the elephant recognizes him by scent and familiarity. *
* The cast were then asked to explain how they felt about the lakorn, Kha Badin. * [end of interview]
