Meet Thailand’s Trevor Noah


Thailand treasures its sanook culture. The sanook mindset revolves around light-hearted jokes about our culture, and there are many Thai celebrities who are Jedis of sanook Jokes. 

However, Udom “Note” Taepanich is one of the most iconic comedians. Note is a stand-up comedian who is extremely popular among Thais for his satirical humour and is seen as the ‘Trevor Noah of Thailand’

He first came on stage in 1995 and started his stand up comedy series “Diew”. Ever since then, he was able to crack up the masses and sold out all 12 of his shows
