He is currently receiving significant attention for "Kris Sripoomseth" the owner of PARAMETER, a famous gelato shop that is currently trending. Previously, Kris Sripoomseth had been absent from the entertainment industry for many years with no activity or information on his whereabouts, until he returned with his gelato shop after learning and developing recipes abroad.
Kris's gelato prices start at 159 baht per cup and go up to 559 baht for a 100-gram serving, which has sparked much discussion. Recently, Kris posted a message urging Thai people to stop having a stagnant mindset, warning that otherwise the country will be filled with poor-quality goods and consumers will continue to consume low-quality products within a narrow view. His post prompted many netizens to comment and criticize.
- Kris Sripoomseth is currently 47 years old. He is a former top DJ and well-known TV host in Thailand, recognized by many.
- He graduated with a bachelor's degree in Business Administration, majoring in Finance, from Assumption University.
- Kris entered the entertainment industry at age 14 by modeling for Phet magazine, then acted in dramas such as "The Maid with a Chicago Heart," "Love Prohibited from Promotion," and "The Will," among others.
- In 2002, he began working as a DJ and also hosted music shows including "Five Live" and "Teen Center," as well as appearing in the horror film "Buppha Ratree."
- Kris gained fame as a DJ alongside Moddam Kachapa on the "Chae Tae Chao" program on EFM.
- Kris Sripoomseth's name was considered top-tier, comparable to other celebrities in the industry, and he was linked in news with various stars and famous figures.
- Kris hosted several programs for Workpoint channel, such as "Khon Uad Phee" and "Fan Pan Tae" in the early days, becoming known as a favorite host. However, as times changed, his hosting roles declined and new generations joined, leading him to gradually step back from on-camera work to focus fully on managing his own business behind the scenes.
- Kris then disappeared from the entertainment scene with no activity, even deleting all photos from his Instagram @kris_srepoomseth, leaving no one knowing what he was doing or where he was.
- Eventually, he returned by opening the PARAMETER gelato shop at Siam Paragon, which caused a stir as many noted his handsome looks resembled a star, with some even saying he looks similar to famous actor Nadech Kugimiya from certain angles.
- Kris's gelato is notable and also widely discussed, especially regarding the high price compared to the small 100-gram cup size. However, the cup and spoon can be taken home, which contributes to perceptions that the price is steep compared to typical gelato market prices.
- Kris has explained that the cost is due to the high quality of ingredients and the ultra-smooth, dense texture of the gelato. He dedicated over five years studying gelato making in Italy, France, and Japan. He admitted the price is higher than usual but argued it is appropriate for the carefully selected quality.
- Previously, Kris opened up on Moddam Kachapa's "Chae" program about his return, saying that he once worked very hard as a TV host almost every day but eventually felt saturated due to being in front of the camera for so long, interviewing many people. During the COVID-19 crisis, he had to stop all entertainment work and close his own production company.
- This led him to decide to start something new. He began learning pastry making and discovered gelato, which interested him. He invested in studying in Italy, the birthplace of gelato, starting with a one-year course in modern gelato making. Then he found classic gelato and liked it more, so he switched to studying classic gelato for another four years, totaling five years of gelato education before returning to open his shop in Thailand.
