“Shine hit us like a beautiful riot, visceral, bold, unapologetic. After KinnPorsche, we hadnâ€t touched drama for a while, but knowing it came from the same fearless team, we couldnâ€t stay away. This isnâ€t just a show, itâ€s a storm of art, emotion, and disruption.†– Foet, frontman of Slot Machine
Other Thai artists will also be part of the musical lineup, with production led by Jay Monton, Ake from Season Five, and Tero Entertainment—ensuring a rich and diverse sonic landscape across the season.
From Bangkok to the World

In July, the cast of Shine will travel to the United States under the Thai SELECT campaign to promote Thai storytelling and cultural exports through live appearances and showcases.
