Unbelievable! Revealing Chen Thanas Remaining Debt, Aiming to Clear It Within 3 Years, Considering New Schools to Save Money for Children

Updating on the life of former actor and ex-singer of the band Nice 2 Meet U, Chen Thanatraitchat Phuchokanan, following last year's debt-related legal troubles. On 24 Mar 2026 GMT+7, he attended an event for the first time in 15 months and openly shared his life story. He admitted to not being used to facing reporters and crowds, which triggered panic attacks.

He said that nowadays he live streams almost continuously, but meeting large crowds like today makes him tense. The last time he faced reporters was at the Crime Suppression Division. Today felt different and triggered some panic, as his life has changed. Previously, people would recognize him as Chen from Nice 2 Meet U or Chen Amado, but for the past 15 months, he had no social interaction, just selling products online. He was glad to meet everyone and felt energized; his eyes looked more human again.

Currently, he tries to resolve problems that have been ongoing for 3 to 4 years, with gradual progress. His large debts are planned to be allocated over 3 to 6 years, depending on income growth, hoping to return to a normal life. Reflecting on last year, he admitted clearing debt was worse than in the prior three years due to negative news affecting work, though online sales helped a lot. Now, his debt has dropped by 20-30 million baht, from 600 million to just over 500 million baht.

He is fortunate that a respected elder sponsors his eldest child's tuition, while he is searching for affordable schools for his younger twins, feeling the need to adapt. Regarding health, he tries to manage his body but his hands have started to feel numb, possibly from lack of rest. His eye sockets feel tight. He plans a health checkup soon. On days when he cannot live stream, he will let his wife take over.
