Continuing to release singles for his fans, the highly talented artist with hundreds of millions of views, Ble Patumrach, draws from the pain found in Thai literature to reinterpret it in his latest single “Janthakrop.” He invites his younger brother in the music industry, the quality vocalist Wit Mike Thongkham, to join in expressing multiplied heartbreak. The song “Janthakrop” is styled as classic luk thung rock, featuring strong instrumentation and deeply metaphorical lyrics that depict the fate of a modern man who becomes a “keeper of the box” in real life—a person who cares for, cherishes, and offers opportunities to his lover but is ultimately betrayed when she chooses to leave for a “new person” likened to a bandit disguised as a wealthy or better man, leaving the 2026 Janthakrop to drown alone in sorrow.
The music video (MV) presents a fresh approach by telling parallel stories between the present world and the past. Ble Patumrach plays a young man facing a fate mirroring the "Janthakrop" in the tale, who falls in love with a beautiful but fickle woman (symbolic of Nang Mora), leading to betrayal and loss. This MV stands out with intense action scenes featuring traditional martial arts battles set in a historical drama atmosphere, intercut with emotional clashes in the modern world. The visuals are meticulously crafted and realistic, delivering a cinematic short film experience that keeps viewers wondering whether the "Janthakrop" of today will share the same fate as in the literature or rise to fight to change his destiny. Join the three-way love legend with the song “Janthakrop” by Ble Patumrach ft. Wit Mike Thongkham now on YouTube: BLEPATUMRACH and available on all streaming platforms.
