On July 22, 2026, prominent Thai actress Kornnaphat Sethratanapong, widely known by her professional name Orm, released a trilingual statement on the Chinese social media platform Weibo, formally denying a wave of online rumors and announcing plans to take legal action. According to a report by Khao Sod English, the statement was published in Thai, English, and Chinese to directly address both her domestic and international supporters, particularly her growing fanbase in China.
The actress, who rose to international prominence after starring in the hit drama series The Secret of Us, stated that distorted information, malicious comments, and misleading messages circulating across multiple online platforms have severely impacted her personal life, professional career, and family. While Orm acknowledged that as a public figure she respects diverse opinions and constructive criticism based on facts, she firmly rejected the fabrication of false information, edited content designed to create misunderstandings, and defamatory messages intended to incite hatred.
In her statement, Orm also emphasized her deep respect and close ties to China, its culture, and her Chinese friends, seeking to reassure her international audience. She reaffirmed her commitment to professional ethics throughout her career in the entertainment industry and declared that the ongoing allegations regarding her personal life are entirely baseless.
To address the issue legally, Orm revealed that she has consulted her agency, Channel 3 Thailand. The agency has already appointed a dedicated legal team to gather evidence of intellectual property and rights violations, as well as defamatory content across various online platforms. Legal proceedings will be initiated against those responsible for creating, publishing, or sharing the false claims. Orm concluded by urging social media users and platform administrators to refrain from amplifying unverified rumors, thanking her supporters for their continued trust and encouragement.
