Fans thrilled by K-drama actor’s perfect intonation of Bangkok’s full name

BANGKOK: Thai viewers of a new South Korean rom-com series were surprised when they heard the lead character recite Bangkok’s full name clearly, almost like a native.

People who watched “Frankly Speaking”, which premiered on Netflix on Wednesday (May 1), posted comments on social media saying they were impressed by Korean heartthrob Go Kyung-pyo’s ability to pronounce the Thai capital’s long name in near-native accent.
