In a moment filled with romance and anticipation, a boat brimming with laughter and joy leisurely sails towards a distant paradise island, as described in legend. Each passenger aboard the vessel carries their own thoughts and stories—newlyweds immersed in sweet love, middle-aged families enjoying joyful reunions, and solo female travelers contemplating life in the twilight.

This scene unfolds like a vivid painting, illuminated by the rays of the setting sun. Their destination is a luxurious haven called "White Lotus Resort," situated on a Hawaiian island. This is not just a simple vacation but the beginning of the story of the popular TV series "White Lotus Resort."

"White Lotus Resort" is a satirical comedy series created by the talented Mike White. Through delicate strokes, the series vividly portrays the various intrigues and conflicts among resort staff and guests over a week's stay. Each season's story unfolds in different locations, with the first season set amidst the vibrant sunshine of Hawaii and the second season in the charming ambiance of Sicily. Now, the third season's story officially opens, set in the mysterious land of Thailand.

With the successful completion of filming for the third season of "White Lotus Resort" in Thailand, this Southeast Asian country is experiencing an unprecedented tourism craze. It's reported that Lisa from the popular Korean music group Blackpink has joined the cast, adding new highlights to the series. The Tourism Authority of Thailand strongly supports this development, anticipating that the series will attract more tourists to Thailand.

The first two seasons of "White Lotus Resort" successfully turned the resorts in Hawaii and Sicily into popular tourist destinations, with fans flocking to these locations to experience the lives of the characters firsthand.

Filming for the third season took place across multiple resorts and locations in Thailand. While the series won't air until next year, major hotels and travel agencies have already begun preparations. Fans have already started booking hotels featured in the series, eager to experience its unique charm firsthand. Hotels like the Four Seasons Resort Koh Samui and Anantara Mai Khao Phuket Villas offer luxurious experiences akin to those depicted in the series. The Talang Beach in Koh Samui is an important filming location, with its white sandy beaches and tropical jungles adding a mysterious allure to the storyline.

Furthermore, the bustling Fisherman's Village Night Market has added vibrant colors to the series and become a must-visit destination for tourists. However, as tourism flourishes, Koh Samui also faces challenges such as waste management and water scarcity. Prime Minister Seta Taweesin has pledged to address these issues, preparing for the upcoming tourism craze.

Ratchaporn Poolsawadee, Chairman of the Koh Samui Tourism Association, welcomes this development, emphasizing the importance of tourism in promoting the island's beauty to the world. He calls for the government to strengthen infrastructure development and environmental protection efforts to accommodate the impending influx of tourists.
