Popular Thai actor James Su faced backlash after his recent musical cover went viral.
The star of "Oxygen" and "Bed Friend" posted a cover of "You?" by Two Feet on YouTube. The short clip was viewed nearly 2 million times on social media.
However, the reviews were mostly negative, as the overwhelming majority of viewers accused the actor of singing terribly.
Some fans also showed their support for the actor, as they liked his new cover.
Fan translations of his statements also show that the actor did not take the reviews of his singing talent in the best way, although he noted that he is ready for constructive criticism.
He said that the comments are more like bullying and only hurt him without being helpful. The actor seems to be positive even after facing so much negativity, as he said he would come back stronger from this and no longer wants to let it get to him.
James Su has now taken a step back and is looking to make the most of a bad situation, probably becoming stronger and learning something from it.
The young actor had an epiphany when his cover of the song "You?" went viral- he saw that there is a very thin line between criticism and bullying, even in the acting industry.
