“So Relatable” — Thai Actor “Pond” Naravitt Lertratkosum Gets “Caught” Reposting A “Thirst Edit” Of NCT’s Jaehyun
While it is not a new concept, many of the videos of idols on TikTok are what could be called “thirst edits.” These videos, usually composed of compiled clips and photos, are meant to inspire “thirst” in the viewer over the idol pictured.

A popular Thai actor recently gained attention for reposting a “thirst edit” about NCT’s Jaehyun!
“Pond” Naravit Lertratkosum‘s career began when he won the Go On Girl & Guy Star Search by Clean & Clear, signing a contract with network GMMTV and appearing in the series The Gifted: Graduation.
Pond gained much attention for his lead role alongside Phuwin Tangsakyuen in the 2021 BL comedy Fish Upon the Sky. Since then, he has appeared in other projects, including the upcoming We Are.
Like many other Thai celebrities, Pond has a favorite K-Pop idol, NCT‘s Jaehyun. Even Phuwin is aware of Pond’s love for the idol!

In late December 2023, a fan shared an edit of Jaehyun on TikTok. This clip featured sexy photos of Jaehyun along with the explicit track “Batman” by LPB Poody and a caption that said, “as many kids as he wants.”

Pond reposted the video (sort of like a “retweet” on X) on his TikTok account sometime after it was shared.
This repost is not the only NCT-related one Pond has done — he’s previously reposted a fancam of Mark, one of Taeyong‘s dance posts, and clips of Jaehyun and aespa‘s Winter from their “Baggy Jeans” and “Better Things” challenges.
Fans LOL-ed at Pond’s relatable act, loving another sign that celebrities are just like us.
