Here's a quick summary of what Khun Boy said from the video clip below. He believes that Aom is one of those actresses that has quality in Thailand. But because the entertainment industry does not have certainly, some of Aom's lakorns have succeeded very well and some do not. But this has never made Aom give up and it makes her fight with determination to work harder because she loves acting and she is a good actress. She has the blood and the soul of a performer. No matter what role Aom has, she is sincere and does not just let it go. This is the reason why she is nominated for best actress of the year. People still love her, the team loves her, and Pee( Khun Boy refers to himself as "Pee" meaning her big brother ) loves Aom. He asked Aom for her continued commitment in her work and have love for her profession for many more years so that Thai people will see the wonderful performances from her.
