Krist and Singto Kazz Magazine No. 144 Photoshoot Location

One of the agendas for my October trip is to go to Miami Hotel where Krist and Singto had a photoshoot for Kazz Magazine. I remember being at work when suddenly they had a live while doing a photoshoot. After checking a few of igs updates, i found out where the place is decided to include a night stay in the hotel just to take pictures where the two had their photoshoot.

I booked the hotel via traveloka around 30+ USD because Traveloka had a discount coupon when i booked it. Regularly, the rooms costs around 40 USD. The hotel is very near Nana BTS Station.

I have to say that the front of the hotel is a busy street. The grab that i rode was blocking the street when he dropped me off so we were in such a hurry. I got to the hotel at around 12 so i couldn't check in yet but they let me leave my luggage in the front desk and enter the pool area to take photos already.

At around 1pm, they let me check in to my room early <3. Surprisingly, the hotel is very big and had lots of rooms. The hotel is old though but the walls and tiles were instagram-worthy. My room was a double room and it was really spacious.

The first place i knew i wanted to take a photo from is definitely the terrace where P'Sing took a photo of Kit.

When you enter the pool area, there will be stairs leading up the terrace and I walked up to take this picture.  If you walk further in the hotel, you will find the Miami Hotel sign that they used on your left.

If you go straight instead of going to the Miami Hotel sign, you will find a vanity at the corner. This is where Krist and Singto took these two photos.

when i took this, i didn't notice the 2 on the side of the elevator 5555

The struggle to include the 2 on the elevator was real.
I tried taking it on different angles but in the end I just joined the shot ToT

After taking pictures here, I went to the top floor because it looked like some shots were taken there and I was right 5555.

After taking photos upstairs, i decided to go downstairs in the pool area and stairs.

wrong angle. i know LOL

Hope you enjoyed this post! ^o^

Sotus and Sotus S Filming Locations part 2

Last March, I was able to go to some of the Sotus and Sotus S shooting locations. There were a few places though that i wanted to go to but did not have enough information. Luckily, i found one of the thai fans who was there from the start and she was kind enough to give me information on the places that i missed.

NEW FINDS:

Central Mansions 

The first one is Central Mansions. This is the dorm of P'Arthit and Kongpob during season 1. Their rooms were in the 6th floor. Central Mansions is an apartment complex located in Ladprao 122. I had contacted this property via Agoda but they were unresponsive so i searched for them on Facebook. I was able to talk to someone and asked if i could stay in Kongpob's room. Unfortunately, since this is an apartment complex, someone is renting the room. The rooms they offer for daily rental are located from 1st to 3rd floor only. So i asked to get a room on Kongpob's side of the dorm but unfortunately its not available. I got a room on the third floor on P' Arthit's side of the building. Kongpob and Arthit's rooms are the deluxe apartment type.

The receptionist was really nice and accommodating. I had to deposit 600 baht which i got back when i checked out. The security in the complex was no joke. They had electronic key cards which is needed to be able to access the elevator to the rooms. The room smelled good and looked exactly the same as in the drama. The bed was really comfortable and i almost did not want to leave the room. There were only two sad things about this stay. One, was i did not get a room that has a balcony facing the other side of the building. My room was at the back :( And two, the cable connection was pretty bad when it rains. Like The Bedroom Ladprao 101 from season 2, this place is not accessible by BTS or MRT. I used Grab to go here.

If you don't mind taking Grab around Bangkok, i think its nice to stay here. The room is quite expensive though compared to the bedroom.

Here are some pictures of my room (flipped because i was on a different side):

i forgot to bring my pictures when i went upstairs so
i didn't know what way  i should've faced. As you
can see, I was facing the wrong side LOL I was too lazy to go up again.

Nom Yen Place

Last March, I wasted time and taxi fare to reach this restaurant. We thought it was around Rangsit university. Anyway, this place is a good 10 minute walk from Central Mansion. This restaurant is where P'Arthit made Kongpob eat that spicy dish, Kongpob found out Arthit's love of NomYen and where Arthit gave his gear to Kongpob during Season 1. I know it's weird but i really had to try the Nomyen in this place LOL.

Google Map link: pink milk restaurant

I walked to this restaurant and saw a lot of food stalls which is good if you are staying in Central mansions. Keep you eyes open because even before you reach the end of the map, you will reach the restaurant. I went on a Saturday so it was basically empty which made taking pictures quite awkward. I bought the Nom Yen and noticed that the place was facing out the street. In the drama, Kong and Arthit usually bought their drinks inside.

Anyway, here are some pictures:

There was a part in Sotus the Series when Kong and Arthit met Praepaelin in the mall and Arthit became so jealous. When they were going home, they were walking in a street that is near this place and Arthit almost got hit.

Chan BBQ and Seafood

The next one is Chan BBQ and Seafood restaurant. During Sotus the Series episode 7, Kongpob joined his 0062 and 6002 senior co-codes for dinner. In this episode, he learned about P'Arthit's nickname and P'Arthit learned that Kongpob didn't want to take engineering which made him pissed LOL.

This restaurant is 20 minute walk from Central Mansions. I asked some fans who were also in Bangkok to eat here so we went on a Sunday. From downtown, we took a grab to this place. It's an eat all you can place for 269 baht. However, they serve prawns per tray and if you eat it you will have to pay 89 baht. They also serve this frozen cold towels for 10 baht each. We weren't able to use those towels but we still had to pay for it. There was a wide selection of food in this place and i think 269 baht for eat all you can is actually a good deal. IDK if they always have musicians playing live in that place but we went on a Sunday night so yeah. This restaurant opens usually at 4pm to midnight.

Google Map link: Chan BBQ and Seafood When we used grab, we input Chankasaem BBQ and Seafood. Make sure you are choosing the one in Latphrao on route 336 i think.

Here are some pictures of this place:

Evaime

This one was an accidental find. While rewatching Sotus S, i noticed Tea something-ry picture outside the Japanese resto they were eating at. I instantly remembered TeaStory which i saw in The scene community mall. So i tried looking for pictures of The Scene community mall on IG and saw this Japanese restaurant.

This is in Sotus S episode when Arthit was eating with the Procurement department and they accidentally met the Production guys with Kongpob. He got angry at Kong who kept putting stuff on his plate.

Here are some pictures:

GOING BACK TO OLD PLACES

I went back to The Bedroom Ladprao 101 because i was supposed to go with friends who wanted to stay there so when i saw it had a cheap price i booked the hotel. In the end, i couldn't cancel my booking and decided to just stay there. LOL. Last time, I did not go up the rooftop so i did it this time.

here are some pictures:

i was supposed to go up to the top but I
didn't want to get injured so i just opted to stay where i was LOL

BEACH SCENES

I wanted to go to season 1 and season 2 beach locations but there were a bunch of events i didn't want to miss. Maybe i will go on February. Season 1 beach as Ashford said can be found in Rayong and Season 2 beach and mangrove place can be found in Chanthaburi ^^ If i can go on February to those places, I will make another post. Rayong is 2-3 hours away from Bangkok while Chanthaburi is 4-5 hours away.

Hopefully, i can go to the beach locations next year ^^

I would like to give my thanks to Khun June who helped me find the first 3 places. Without her, I definitely won't be able to find those season 1 places. Thanks to Jacqcullen and Isabelle for coming with me to Chan BBQ and Seafood ^^

Please check out my post about Krist and Singto's team girl episodes by this week. I visited the places they suggested in Team Girl episode 27 and 28. ~
