A giant step forward that we award mostly to Mew Suppasit, a thai idol who we met for the first time as an actor. And now, has taken the title of one of the most popular singers of Thailand, being able to overcome the barrier of language and amassed lots of Mewlions (fans) with his music, currently three millions on Instagram. The ones that have been an essential part of his pathway, and now with the official release of his first album 365, they celebrate his first anniversary as a solo singer. What a thrill!
For these reasons, we looked for Mew Suppasit and asked him about his newest release, his future plans, and of course about his actor side that also interests Mewlions. Read on!

With more than 11 years in the entertainment industry, just one as a singer, Mew Suppasit has appeared in major thai television productions like Tharntype: The Series. The one that brought him international fame and allowed him to consolidate a large number of fans, within and outside Thailand. But it was not until his musical debut with the single “Season Of You”, that his rhythms conquered our hearts even more and made many people sing along to this romantic song all over the globe.
But his fandom hasn’t been the only one overwhelmed by Mew Mew‘s singing. His interest for music took off by influence of his dad. From there, we began this exclusive interview with Mew Suppasit, and we asked him to tell us a little bit about that stage in his life.
MEW: My dad loves to sing songs from Aussanee & Wassun and Bird Thongchai. He sings a lot of songs, then, I can’t remember the name of it, but when I hear it, I can sing along.
Memories that encouraged the singer to follow his dreams, to establish his own agency MewSuppasit Studio, where he’s the CEO, and fully embark into the music industry. Adventure that since his debut pleasantly surprised us with its interesting musical proposals. And that up to now have accumulated five awesome singles: ”Season Of You”, “Nan Na“, “Good Day“, “Thanos“, and “Summer Fireworks”. The last one, written by himself and his first international single as it is entirely in english.
MEW: I wrote the story about my fan’s name Summer. She wrote a short letter to me before I debuted as a singer. At the beginning of the letter she cheered me up, then suddenly twisted to the end that she was sick and might not be able to live in this world anymore. She passed away before my debut day. Once I read it, the feeling of fireworks popped up. It’s beautiful but suddenly fades away. So, I promised to myself that I would write this song as a gift for her. Other than that, summer is like a special period for everyone, where you can have a special time with your friends and your family.
Certainly a track that reaches to all Mewlion’s souls, and reminds us of the importance of treasuring every moment we live. Right?

But there’s even more, because after a year of being in the spotlight as a soloist, Mew should commemorate this with something amazing. And there’s no better way to do it than by releasing his first album, called 365. Which includes his previous singles, plus five new tracks: “Missing You”, “Drowning”, “Time Machine”, “Let Me Be”, and “More and More”. Music that dazzled all of us and we can’t stop playing it. What a perfect way to celebrate!
That’s why, having this exclusive interview with Mew Suppasit, we wanted to know everything that this project has caused in his life. From what it means emotionally to him, till what challenges he had to overcome.
MEW: The most difficult part is when you never feel satisfied and don’t know when to stop editing it. I feel like “can it be better than this?” all the time, and keep editing it until the very last minute.
MEW: Of course, I’m so really excited and nervous. This is my first album, I try my best on it, and I hope everyone will like it.
MEW: It’s a mix of it, you can listen to all the songs with all kinds of feelings. It includes a variety of experiences, emotions and music from different talented producers.
So, if you haven’t listened to 365, you will surely do after discovering all that Mew Suppasit has put into the 10 songs that integrate the album. You can now check it at every streaming platform, like Spotify and iTunes.

But if his success has been incredible, it’s not only concentrated on thai lands. This is because within hours of its release, the album 365 became a trending topic globally, and he became the only thai singer to reach the 13th position on the Ranking Globlal Digital. Also, he has traveled around the world though special projects made by his fans, for example: The screens of Times Square, in New York; the subway of Mexico City; on the district of Shinjuku, in Japan; and of course, all around Bangkok on its characteristic Tuk Tuks, among others billboards. So, it’s not farfetched to expect some of his music in other languages.
MEW: My first international song is “Summer Fireworks”, also included in this album. Also, I may have a few projects in the future with international artists, so definitely more international song releases will follow this. Please stay tuned.
MEW: Oh, it’s a really good idea. I know “Feliz Navidad” (by José Feliciano) and Shakira. I will keep trying to practice my skill, and I would love to sing it when I have a chance to meet all my fans there.
MEW: Of course, YES!!, I like Shakira and J Balvin. I want to try on a dance song also.
However, even though Jongcheveevat´s talent (his thai name) is pretty evident, his fans are one of the biggest reasons for him to gain popularity on foreign countries. That’s why, in this exclusive interview with Mew Suppasit, the idol let us know how much he treasures and appreciates the unconditional support of his Mewlions.
MEW: I never imagined that before. All of my fans are like a miracle for me and I want to be better and better for them. I am always grateful that they have supported me. I want my fans to be happy like I’m happy because of them.
MEW: First of all, I have to say Thank you so, so much for your love and what you guys have done for me. I never imagined that I would be loved by fans from the other side of the world. It’s amazing. I’m so really happy, and I hope that I can meet all my fans in person after the situation (pandemic) gets better.
But Mew Suppasit is not only a singer, he also has other facets with which he has captured our attention, like acting. We’ve seen him since his first appearances as the protagonist of different music videos, his debut on the small screen as the main character in Tharntype: The Series, and his first action movie Undefeated. A path that his Mewlions and we are very proud of, because we’ve seen him bloom, and there’s still much more to discover.
MEW: SuperMan is the mini-series for the blind (people) that they can enjoy together with everyone. I really like the concept of this project, where everyone can reach entertainment equality. The story line is also very interesting. It’s going to be released soon, please stay tuned on it. The Aquarium man has changed the name to The Ocean Eyes. The story is about a group of veterinarians who will have to protect sea life through a lot of cases and situations, where they can also learn a new life experience from it. This is the first production from my company and will start shooting soon.
MEW: I wish I will have a chance to do it. I love being an actor and I´m always willing to discover new experiences through it. So, I will try to make sure that you guys will definitely see me in a lot of characters from now on.

So far, we have seen the son of Thailand present himself in different ways in the industry: Singer, actor, PhD student, Youtuber, MC, CEO, as well as an advocate against bullying, environment enthusiast, and even animal lover. Sides we’ve been discovering over time and that without a doubt have placed the thai artist as a role model. However, in this exclusive interview with Mew Suppasit, he confessed that not everything is as it seems, there’s something he is not good at!
MEW: I’m not quite good at my MC skill, it’s really hard for me. You have to control the moods and tones of the show while controlling the queue of the show and guests. Also have to wrap up all the content on stage again to end the conversation.
MEW: I don’t feel like it is my responsibility, I do feel it’s a soft power. The soft power is a power where you can suggest people to be willing on something without any force. And I’m glad that I can use it to attract the world to get to know more about my country and express our culture through this.
MEW: Of course, that’s why I have to focus on being a better version of myself and keep moving forward. Also, I have to be on the ground, stay balanced, and be ready all the time.
If you’re thinking that was all we could manage to discover in this exclusive interview with Mew Suppasit, you’re wrong. The thai idol opens his soul to us and talks about his dreams, and even sends a very special message to his future self. Undoubtedly, the future Jongcheveevat will feel comforted by these words.
MEW: In the next five years? I will say: “Thank you for your patience and keep doing what is right. Focus on what you loved, who you loved, and who loved you. Take care of yourself, do exercise, eat punctually, and be positive. By the way, the chances will never come often, so concentrate on what you are doing right now and try your best on it. I will wish you luck”.
MEW: I want to enter Hollywood, expand my career path and be a positive energy for everyone, inspire the people to keep doing what they love.
This exclusive interview with Mew Suppasit couldn’t end without him telling us something about Mexico and Latin America. Pay attention, Mewlion!
MEW: Yes, I will. I want to meet all my fans in Mexico and Latin America. Let’s make it soon.
MEW: Gracias, Te amo, Te quiero. (Thank you, I love you, I love you) Thank you so much for always loving and supporting me. Please take care of yourselves and we will meet soon. Espero verlos pronto (Hope to see you soon).
