I must confess that "Bie The Star" is the new generation Y of the Thai music industry.
Many are still in disbelief that such program was able to change the entire outlook of the Thai music scene recently. It managed to capture numerous audiences and the counts still continues.
I’ve hardly followed “The Star 3” contest, never watched “Roy Ardeed Hang Rak” The most, I’ve seen “Hua Jai SiLa” a couple of times when I accidentally tuned to the channel on some faithful nights. Soon after that, I was rather amazed to hear about his first album and the news about him (Bie-Sukrit Wisetkaew).
Most of people who have gone through the singing contests in the last 20 years or so have received much negative criticism that they will never really made it to become a star. You can count how many who have really made it.
“The Star 3” began on air at the beginning of 2006.
Bie (His name means dragonfly), then a second year engineering student at King Mongkut’s University of Technology Thonburi, joined the contests with little preparation. With him was only the passion for the music, he is just one of the young enthusiast with big dream and the love for singing. He didn’t have any background on singing nor dancing whatsoever.
A plain 20 years old teenager from a rural town of Chiangmai, was then just another unadorned contestant. He was nowhere near being attractive. His singing was off key with strange dance moves. Somehow he managed to enter the final 8 contestants of the show.
During those two months, “The star 3” stage has transformed Bie-Sukirt to a fine young teenager with an eye-catching look. Although, his singing and dancing skills were not impressive, but still, he managed to draw the attention and support from his fans and voters to enter the finale.
One week before the finale, there was an unfortunate event involving Bie’s photo scandal that seemed to cause a negative view about him. At the end, R Nattaphon, a talented rock singer from the northeast, was voted “The Star 3 Champion” from the fans all over the country. At that point in time, everyone seems to agree silently that Bie might be more successful than R, even though he was not the champion. That was because of his outlook and attitude that seemed to be able to capture the hearts of his fans.
The champion, R was awarded the contract with GMM Grammy and released his first rock album called R-Positive. While Bie was given a chance from the producer and owner of “The Star 3” program, Khun Boyd Thakolkiet, to act in his first drama called “Roy Ardeed Hang Rak” together with Miew, another contestant from “The Star 3”. Bie was then a new rising star actor. The drama received a considerable good rating.
His lead role in the drama lifted his image to become a fresh, handsome and attractive young man.
However, the making of the drama was really easier said than done. The whole drama took about 4 months in the production. It was the first drama for the brand new actor who has absolutely no ideas on how to act. One can imagine how difficult it would be for an amateur star, a country teenager who only wants to be a singer.

The first three months in the production of his first drama was not easy. He was scolded almost daily during the making. It could be because of the drama’s director was Thakolkiet Veerawan, who is known to be very strict, demanding and a perfectionist.
Bie said in an interview that he was told off many times during the acting. Sometimes the words were really harsh, that even his parents have never said to him that way. He even cried several times when he was given a cruel scolding as his acting was not up to the director’s expectation. There were periods when the thought of giving up often came to his mind.
In life, there are times when you encountered some difficulties, it is your choice whether you choose to confront or avoid those obstacles.
The pressure ran high in the production team. As there are hundreds of people working in a production of one such drama, everyone was enthusiastically waiting for him to complete each scene successfully. As a lead role, he naturally appeared in most scenes. The director needs to ensure a good quality of work in every episode. If there are many scenes that need to be repeated, you can imagine the working atmosphere on those days and no one can stop working until the director was happy with the scene he was taking.
Despite all these heart wrenching moments, Bie chose to continue, he learnt that “doing his best” is the only way to warrant the success of the whole production team and he was very well aware that he can not fail those hundreds of crew team behind the scene whom they put their hearts in to do their best to ensure the success of the drama and of course, Bie, himself.
The role of "Ton Nam" in the drama, received some criticism that the acting was too rigid and needs some improvements. However there were many fans who are willing to give him and the new actress all their support. The two drama’s Ost sung by Bie (Sai Pai Mai and Tad Jai Mai Wai) were very well received by the fans and become the hits on the radio channels. The drama ends well with the news of his first album “Love scene”.
Many thought that the two songs from the drama Ost will serve as an introduction to make it easier for him to open himself to the music industry.
Little would have imagined that a freshly new pop song called “I need somebody” is indeed a perfect opening for him in a music arena. The song became an overnight sensation. It was certainly the top on many charts for months.
At the end of 2006, Sukrit Wisetkaew, has finally become a popular pop star singer with a unique dance move (waving his hands as a heart shape) familiar to everyone in town.
Together with the glory and popularity, there is always scandal that follows the celebrities, Bie is no exception.
Many said Bie’s popularity was mainly due to the helping hand from his big boss from Exact Scenario, Khun Boyd Thakolkiet as he was called “Khun Boyd’s favourite son”.
Another scandal shocking the kingdom was the rumours of him being gay and so on, and so forth, which up till now he might not even remember all the rumours about him.
As one of the best selling artists in Thailand right now, there is always someone watching over every move he has. That is definitely a changed on a life of once a simple teenager like him.
