Sunthorn Phu Memorial Day is a special day in Thai schools when teachers organise events and activities to pay tribute to Thailand’s greatest literary figure, Suthorn Phu. It includes a stage performance held in schools to showcase his works to students.
A Thai teacher went viral on TikTok as she humorously cosplayed as a main character in Suthorn Phu’s famous literary piece, “Phra Aphi Mani”, and this amused her students.

In a viral TikTok video, a Thai teacher is seen cosplaying as the iconic character with funny makeup and engaging with a group of students. However, some students are seen crying with fear, as shown in the video.

It is a special and fun day
We remember that as kids, this event was so special and fun. It offered activities for students to participate in, and the stage performances from the teachers were hilarious. Cheers to the teacher who went above and beyond to entertain students. It’s too bad they scared some of them.
