China Power: Cultural exports script a softer narrative in Southeast Asia

Thailand is a top choice for Taiwanese production companies among all the nations in Southeast Asia. &nbsp, &nbsp,

According to Jeff Han, a representative for Chinese tech company Tencent, Thailand was a prime location for ability and leisure production.

Google filmed its famous real hero contest set Chuang Asia in Thailand in 2024. &nbsp,

70 recruits from countries in the region, including Malaysia, Thailand, and Vietnam, competed for spots in a fresh foreign lady group as part of the 10-episode series, which was shot in Bangkok. &nbsp,

Dr. Kornphanat Tungkeunkunt, a professor at Thammasat University, called it” a strategic shift” that “opened new opportunities” in international markets as well as a” striking move” that allowed Google to evade stringent domestic laws in China.

Beginning in December, Season 2 was shot in Bangkok, and included appearances by Season 2, rapper BamBam ( also known as a member of the K-pop boy band GOT7 ), Blackpink’s Lisa, and singer Jeff Satur. &nbsp,

60 aspiring employees from nine countries and regions competed for the title of the fresh seven-member boyband NexT1DE during the broadcast that aired from February 2 through&nbsp, April 6. &nbsp,

Thailand’s “dynamic pleasure business,” “well-established legend society,” and international attractiveness made it best to host and film the reality show, Han said. &nbsp,

The region offers an ideal environment to learn and nourish new talent, according to the statement from the country, which includes several powerful Thai stars who have gained worldwide fame.

Chinese leisure companies also face significant challenges in navigating Southeast Asia’s various and “uneven modern terrain” to provide shows and other offerings to local audiences, even as Chinese pop culture  offerings gain traction in the region. &nbsp,

All people will have access to the products, she said. &nbsp,
