Opening up completely, famous net idol “Fluke Karon, or Fluke-Thanop Saeng-osot,” tells about his past life growing up in the military. I don’t know what I like. Going on the internet idol path and coming out as LGBTQ makes my mother unable to accept it because I want to have an old wife. To the point of kicking my boyfriend out of the house. I had to overcome obstacles in love for 9 years on Woody FM.
You grow up with life experiences. I learned a lot. And have you gone through all kinds of drama?
Fluke Karon: There are a lot. I used to think back if it were someone else who wasn’t as strong as me. Or, as strong as me, what will he be like now? It’s very serious, to the point of being expelled from various universities. With just the words of netizens creating a story, It can make us worse.
How bad do you feel?
Fluke Karon: I must say that we are fortunate that the people around us are very good. I myself am a person who doesn’t read comments; 99% of the time, I don’t read them at all, so everyone will ask how I got through this. Because it’s so popular, it used to be trending on Twitter. What I answered was that I didn’t read it (laughs). That’s all.
If you don’t read it, will it pass like everything else in this world?
Fluke Karon: Yes, I feel that what he saw was only a fraction of our lives. Even if we post a picture, we still have to edit it. Therefore, it is definitely not 100% in our lives that what he sees is just a little bit. If you decide there So I feel like I’m not serious or interested in anything. We know what we are doing.
What kind of family were you born into?
Fluke Karon: I grew up in the military. Living in welfare housing, my father is a regular employee. It’s like he grew up from being a conscript, and Mr. Rak took the exam to become a regular employee of the Department of Transport. Everything is very gated. The school I study at is right next to the military department.
So what is it like to be LGBTQ in the military?
Fluke Karon: I haven’t had a chance to think about it. Because the position is not good And I had a phone in Mathayom 2, and I didn’t know what LGBTQ was. All I knew was that at the time we were studying, the whole class had a friend who was teased for being a transvestite. We don’t want to be like that. So he acted normally, like a boy. In a men’s gang, I don’t know which one is transvestite. Which one is a hermaphrodite? How should I act? We always heard our parents say that we had to be soldiers. There was no opportunity to know more than that. I finished studying and went home. In the evening, we went to play football, play takraw, and play ping pong. They went to chase each other, and we went too. I once got stabbed behind the school during the school break. I accidentally got hit in the back by a crossfire and got 8 stitches at the age of 15.
When did you discover that we like something that is different from others?
Fluke Karon: At that time, my father had passed away. No one, including close friends, knows what’s wrong with us. When we take a shower, we will look in the mirror and see who we are. I don’t want to be a woman. I don’t like the way it is. But I don’t know what it is. Until our father died, we shared our photos to make more people know us. So I talked with my current girlfriend. We chatted like siblings for almost two years. It was the day we felt like we could earn money, be able to work, and be able to take care of our mother because our father was no longer here.
So I feel like I’m ready to tell everyone that I’m talking to this person. This person was my boyfriend, so I brought him to my mother and told all my friends at the same time that this person was my boyfriend. Everyone was very shocked, including my mother. She couldn’t accept it 100% and kicked my boyfriend out of the house. But all my friends were happy to receive it all and were hardly shocked at all. Because my mother would instill in me the idea that we must have an old wife. Because an old wife will be able to take care of us from childhood. But we kept bringing our girlfriends until, after 1-2 years, we started to be able to look at each other and talk to each other.
After that, how did he accept who we were?
Fluke Karon: We tried to tell my mother that, in the end, she is not the owner of my life. A mother is a mother. I am me. Therefore, I have to live my life. And I feel that if we love someone, Mother should love them too. Because he wasn’t bad or anything. We had been talking for two years before this day. I explained it to him. Having said that, Mom is a bit conservative, but he is slowly becoming more understanding. What is it like for us to be together? How well do we support each other? How do we live a better life? I think Mom saw that and was happy.
On the day that my father and mother passed away What have you seen?
Fluke Karon: For the first time, when my father passed away, I felt that my mother was still there. Life doesn’t lack that much. Until the day Mother left, there were many things that we had planned to do together but hadn’t done yet or hadn’t said goodbye to. At that time, when he was here, we felt like we were overthinking and doing many things. We have to meet with Mother, but when he really isn’t there, we have to walk past that place where he would sit regularly, where he would greet us and know, Oh wow! This is where his mother is really worried about us. That he always tells us But we complained; what would he ask? While we were there, we never spoke well to him. When it was time to go and speak nicely, he couldn’t hear him. I have some regrets here. But it was good that those years were happy years for both me, my mother, and my boyfriend, so I didn’t feel like there was anything left over from each other. Everything is happy.
How many years have you been dating, man?
Fluke Karon : is 9 years old. We met on social media (Facebook). It’s like he said to me that he’d like to add me. But actually, it was a female friend who borrowed Facebook, and he messaged me because that female friend’s Facebook didn’t respond to me. And that woman wondered if I was gay or not, so I tried to say hello to a male friend. to which we answer him. But we didn’t answer the younger woman (laughs). So we started talking for about two years before we started dating. But if the total is 11 years,.
What do you like about it?
Fluke Karon: Well, those 2 years we talked like siblings. We haven’t opened it yet. We don’t know who we are. We talked endlessly until I felt like this person dared to tell many stories and dared to tell stories at home. He is a person who is ready to listen to us about everything, is very nice, and always gives advice. Even though he was 3–4 years younger than me, some of the things he suggested we really lacked here. So I feel like I like him. and very fond of him.
Being together for nine years means going through all kinds of ups and downs.
Fluke Karon: A lot. I have to say that the first day we met, we moved things in together. Now we have been living together for 9 years in the same house. Therefore, you will encounter everything that your parents encountered. We encountered that from the beginning. They argue continuously over what to eat. But there was no quarrel about an affair. There will only be life because we are together. You will be able to see all your actions 24 hours a day.
What do you love about this person?
Fluke Karon: When we talk about him, he is very happy. I don’t know what we’re missing, but when he comes in, I feel like he can do everything for me. Whatever we do, we must consult with him first. It will give you a very good answer. I’m glad he was there every moment. He made me grow up and be smart. Let’s fill in everything we don’t know.
It’s like he’s a person who was born to support you.
Fluke Karon: Very much, Brother Woody. From that day until today, nine years later, he’s been the same as before. Nothing has changed at all. Every time I talk about him, there are some tears. I don’t know why. I am very proud of him. And I’m glad to have met him too.
Do you want to get married in the future?
Fluke Karon: I want to get married. I’ve been talking since the first year. That is, in life, he will always design that and design this for us. But for the wedding, we want to think about it ourselves. Will be decorated by the sea Want to decorate with a Hawaiian theme? Speaking from the first year until today, I still insist that if I dress, I want it to be like this. Actually, I’ve had plans since I was 7 years old, but there was also COVID.
You can now register. Which will be good for both of you. It’s a good year for LGBTQ people. Do you believe it will definitely happen?
Fluke Karon: If you can register, definitely register.
Many times, when we watch the clip, there will be arguments. Will it seem like he doesn’t care?
Fluke Karon: If you tell other people, will they say it’s true? In fact, we didn’t fight; we talked, like when we were together a lot. And when talking, there may be some rude words or inserted words, which is normal. And we are people who like loud noises. Sometimes he feels like he has to make a loud noise. So we’ll make a loud noise with that feel. We’re talking normally. Because if we really quarrel Will be quiet, back to back And then, at night, before going to bed, we’ll clear things up. That is, if everyone still saw that arguing was normal (laughs), we would never have a one-night stand. Every night, we have to clear things up.
There’s something you haven’t told anyone yet. What about the last lump sum?
Fluke Karon: This story has never been told. It’s something that has been in my heart for a very long time. It’s a problem in the hearts of the two of us, going back about 5 years. I left the military because my father died and I had to rent a house. I had my mother with me. At that time, I wasn’t working on Facebook yet. I hadn’t entered the world of YouTube. I did a lot of work and filmed reviews. Until one day, there was news that hundreds of brands had been arrested for a trendy product. So we read the news, and wow! There are many brands that we carry. So I told him that it couldn’t be like this anymore. It feels like we are deceiving the people they follow. So I feel like I’m going to stop doing this; I’m going to stop doing reviews, and there’s a contract that we have with the brands as well. So we took the money we had and returned what we owed on the contract. So that nothing is stuck together.
There was about 300,000 baht left, so I felt like it was OK to leave YouTube that we hadn’t done yet. So I moved to doing YouTube. I started by picking up products I had at home and reviewing them myself. But, really, no one is hiring. Invest in a camera. Buy a lot of electricity, spend $200,000, and have $100,000 left. I think that people will follow us because we have millions of followers on Facebook. But it turned out that there were no viewers. For one week, I only got 400 views. What should I do? There’s no income. So I realized that it was a different Target, so we had to build Youtube, and we only had $100,000 left to pay the house rent. Until there really is no money left, there are only 7 thousand left. And we have to pay for the house; what should we do?
I was so helpless that I didn’t dare borrow money from anyone. What should I do if I lie down and cry with him? Mom would buy rice or anything, but she didn’t have any money for her. Until I realized that the cash register had 2 baht of gold in it, so I took the gold to the gold shop. We sold it for over 10,000 baht and then continued. At that time, we were very stressed. I went to apologize to him because I promised him that I would take care of him. Sorry for causing trouble. But the words from him He never said he wasn’t proud of me (crying). He was very much on my side. Makes us ready to work every day. Never blamed us for anything that made things worse. After that, the clip started to get thousands or tens of thousands of views. He was delighted and happy that we were able to do it. Who said she couldn’t do it?
