SM True is bringing together JENO and JAEMIN as the NCT JNJM unit for their first-ever fanmeeting tour in Thailand, captivating Thai NCTzen fans with the 2026 NCT JNJM FANMEETING TOUR [DUALITY] # BANGKOK on Saturday, August 8, 2026 at 5:00 PM at Impact Arena.

The duo has made waves in the music industry with their official debut and first mini-album 'BOTH SIDES,' which achieved half-million seller status with over 500,000 copies sold since its February 23 release. They've topped music and album charts across South Korea, Japan (Oricon Daily Albums), and China (QQ Music Digital Albums Chart), cementing their global popularity. Their partnership spans over 10 years, from their trainee days through activities with NCT and NCT DREAM, allowing them to showcase diverse and distinctive charms that have earned them massive love from fans worldwide.

The concept "DUALITY" serves as the main theme throughout their promotion, from the mini-album to the fanmeeting tour name, symbolizing two contrasting yet perfectly complementary images. Both members showcase their unique identities and colors distinctly before blending into one to create perfect balance, demonstrating how their combined strengths transform differences into powerful assets. The "aesthetics of duality" proves that from every angle—up, down, left, right—NCTzen will be delighted.

The 2026 NCT JNJM FANMEETING TOUR [DUALITY] kicked off in Seoul, South Korea on June 13-14, with all three shows and limited view seats sold out immediately. The tour will then travel to various Asian cities including Tokyo, Jakarta, Macau, Guangzhou, and conclude in Bangkok—the final destination that Thai NCTzen have been eagerly awaiting.

On May 22, 2026, the Krajeevoharn Poll Institute (KPI Poll) released results from a survey titled "Bangkok Election 2026: Public Interest in the Governor Election and Expectations for the New Bangkok Metropolitan Administration." Conducted between May 8-11, 2026, among 1,600 Bangkok residents aged 18 and older across all districts, the survey found that 85.9% stated they would definitely vote for a new Bangkok governor, 9.2% said they probably would or were unsure, and 4.9% said they probably would not or would definitely not vote.

Meanwhile, 49.2% of respondents reported following news about the governor and BMA election quite closely to very closely, while 48.3% followed somewhat to very little, and 2.5% did not follow at all.

Regarding desired qualifications for the new Bangkok governor, 26.4% wanted someone who understands real community problems, 21.3% wanted someone with strong coordination skills who can solve local issues, 19.3% wanted an honest and transparent person who can be held accountable, and 13.3% wanted someone approachable. Additionally, 9.5% valued someone courageous in investigating and addressing problems, 6.5% wanted someone with experience in the area, only 3.4% prioritized affiliation with a trustworthy political party, and 0.3% cited other characteristics.

By district tier, outer Bangkok residents (30.7%) most valued understanding real community problems, followed by 22.9% wanting strong coordination and problem-solving skills. Middle Bangkok residents (29.3%) prioritized understanding real problems, with 22.2% valuing honesty and transparency. Inner Bangkok showed similar proportions across strong coordination skills (21.7%), understanding real problems (21.1%), and honesty and transparency (20.3%).

GCAP GOLD identifies Kevin Warsh, the incoming Federal Reserve chairman, as a key variable in shifting U.S. monetary policy, with analysts watching for a gold rebound toward $4,600. Areeratchai Murachay, chief analyst at GCAP Gold, reveals that Warsh's appointment may represent a significant turning point in U.S. monetary policy and is another factor global gold markets must monitor closely. Amid persistent high inflation, geopolitical risks in the Middle East, and political pressures before U.S. midterm elections, these factors directly impact the trajectory of the U.S. dollar, Treasury bond yields, and gold prices. "Warsh's assumption of the Fed chairmanship raises questions about how well he can maintain the Fed's independence in monetary policy, especially given President Donald Trump's continued signals favoring quick interest rate cuts to stimulate an economy showing signs of slowdown." Energy costs remain elevated due to tensions with Iran, prompting markets to lower expectations for rate cuts this year and instead focus on the possibility that the Fed may need to return to tighter monetary policy if inflation accelerates. If Warsh pursues a stricter policy than expected, it could support the U.S. dollar and Treasury yields while pressuring gold prices in the near term. Additionally, Warsh has signaled support for reducing the Fed's balance sheet, currently valued at approximately $6.7 trillion, and may scale back forward guidance communications such as quarterly interest rate projections (Dot Plot), changes that could increase volatility in global financial markets during this policy transition. For investment strategy, analysts note that gold prices are entering a critical juncture determining whether they will recover or decline further. Key support lies at $4,480 (approximately 69,400 +/- baht for Thai gold); if this level holds, there is potential for a rebound testing resistance around $4,600 and $4,640 (approximately 70,900–71,600 baht). If $4,480 breaks, selling pressure could push prices to the $4,430–$4,400 zone (approximately 69,000–68,700 baht). Therefore, analysts recommend gradually accumulating gold at support levels to capitalize on rebound opportunities.

On May 22, 2569, officers from the Ayutthaya Ruamjai Association posted dashcam and eyewitness video of a harrowing moment as rescue personnel were transporting a patient to Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya Hospital with sirens blaring and warning lights activated. As the ambulance was turning into the hospital entrance with rescue staff on motorcycles blocking traffic to facilitate the turn, a teenage rider suddenly cut across the ambulance's path at speed, nearly colliding with the emergency vehicle. The incident occurred around 11 p.m. on May 21.

Chaiyanrong Tangon, 28, a rescue officer with Ayutthaya rescue unit, revealed the frightening incident occurred while he was urgently transporting a 70-year-old woman with a history of cancer suffering from abdominal rigidity and severe respiratory distress to the hospital. During the operation, the team activated emergency lights with two additional rescue officers on motorcycles leading the way to clear traffic at intersections. Most vehicles cooperated, but as the ambulance approached Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya Hospital's entrance and began turning in, a teenage motorcyclist came speeding toward them in the opposite direction without stopping. The ambulance narrowly avoided collision when the driver braked in time, preventing an accident.

Chaiyanrong urged all road users to remember that when encountering ambulances, rescue vehicles, or emergency vehicles with lights and sirens activated, someone's life may be at stake. Slowing down, stopping, or yielding not only gets patients to medical care faster but also prevents secondary accidents during emergency response operations.

A famous 1990s actor has drawn criticism after his mischievous child broke a restaurant window, with the establishment demanding over ten thousand baht in damages. The actor subsequently went silent, refusing to answer calls or messages. After checking security footage, the restaurant owner initially communicated cordially with the actor, but communication ceased once the damage claim was presented.

A prominent social media page, "Auntie Next Door," weighed in with clues about the actor's identity, stating: "I've investigated using third-person sources. The keyword is a famous 1990s actor everyone recognizes. I've figured out who it is—he has children. From what I've learned, he was once a leading actor, though he focused on evening dramas. He still qualifies as a leading man. Here's another hint: he has two children."

The page confirmed the actor is not Navin Thamsatchanan, noting the actual person had shifted away from acting toward other pursuits that proved more successful. The page emphasized that while the actor's identity isn't Navin, only someone with star power and successful acting credentials would match the profile. The page's administrator advised the actor to promptly reach out to the restaurant to resolve the matter amicably, noting the child is likely under five and young children's mischief is understandable, but property damage must be addressed responsibly. Both parties should present clear evidence to find an amicable resolution without legal action.
