After Pim Pimprapa traveled to Japan, she did not miss filming content in the middle of Shibuya and posting it on her social media. Someone reposted the actress's clip on Twitter, which was then shared and commented on by others regarding this action,
"Hundreds have filmed here, but that doesn't mean it should be done. Streets are for movement and travel, not for stopping in the middle and doing this. When will Thai people stop following trends blindly? When will they respect and honor other countries? The middle of the street is not a place for photos,
what's the point of this? The Japanese will see you as coming from a developing country, never having seen anything like this before. It looks tacky. The Japanese are probably tired and understand well those from undeveloped countries who get excited and fascinated by this atmosphere. It may look stylish but is probably annoying to them,
it obstructs pedestrians. What's the point? It shows a lack of manners. It blocks others, right? And is this really a place for photos? Okay, others do it too, but that doesn't mean it should be done."
However, many netizens do not see Pim's actions as inappropriate. They view it differently: "Anyone who has been to Shibuya knows that tourists from the developed Western world do this kind of content. The street is so wide it doesn't block anyone. When crossing and encountering people making this kind of content, we just step a few paces aside and pass. At Shibuya Crossing, people do this all the time. I've never been there without seeing someone doing it,
searching for 'Shibuya Crossing' shows almost everyone does this worldwide. Why do Thai people create drama? Some criticize without understanding. This street is a signature spot where everyone takes photos and videos to show they've been there. This promotes tourism differently than some trivial content, right? Haha, there are millions of photos of people standing here. They are everywhere. Stop looking for trouble. Narrow-minded."
In response, Pim Pimprapa quickly addressed the controversy, saying, "This is VIRAL content that people worldwide have done before. Importantly, I always research whether it is appropriate and fits the image of Thai people before creating content. I read all comments and found no drama or criticism until I saw this news, which confused me about who is creating drama. I hope the media focuses more on the facts than just views.
(Seeing comments on this post makes me realize Thai people consume media with awareness. They know this content is normal worldwide. Please don't stir things up.)"
**This news really raises questions about what this media outlet really wants."
Additionally, Pim saved clips of people filming content in the middle of Shibuya, adding a caption: "Before making news to stir drama and harm others, please research first. This is done worldwide."
