UBC Academy Fantasia in Concert is November 5
A “Thai Tidbit Column” by Ooy Kethphung
On November 5, 12 competitors will perform a special concert, called “UBC Academy Fantasia in Concert” at Impact Arena Muang Thong Thani. The concert is being held in co-junction with UBC Academy Fantasia # 2, one of the most famous 24 hours reality shows on UBC channel 16. This is the show that has 12 competitors staying in the same house with several cameras watching them. The competitors will have to practice singing and dancing with professional trainers to improve their skills. By Saturday of every week, they have to perform a concert to get the most votes from their fans. Competitors who have the least number of votes will have to leave the house each week.
Last week was the final concert of the last 5 competitors and the winner was (Aof) Suppanut Chalermchaichareonkit, a 19 year-old boy, who has a unique voice and has won the hearts of his fans from around the country. He has also won big prizes, which include a house valued at 4.5 million Baht and a large amount of money. He will also release his own album soon.
UBC Academy Fantasia is now one of the popular formats for TV programs and Thai people enjoy them very much. Even though the show has just ended, the competitors will be appearing on several other shows and concerts. They might also have the opportunity to work in the entertainment business with different companies.
Tickets to the November 5 concert are available at Thai Ticket Master. For further information about UBC Academy Fantasia, please visit www.ubcaf.com.
