They were meant to be 35 Thai trainees in total but, I counted 31. Someone must have dropped out. Total number of trainees supposedly was 70 (Thai 35 + the rest of Asia 35).

Notable trainees (in my opinion) are

1. Ailene, 4. Grace, 5. Praew, 8. Mingming, 13. Paengjang from Mindy

7. Pream

11. Krista (half Korean)

12. Chaba

14. Pailiu (beauty pageant contestant, half Viet)

15. Ray

31. R Jing (ex S.M. Trainee)

She looked terrible in wavy hair. Hairdresser better find new job.

For now, R Jing, Krista and Pream are my picks.

Quote from bartkun

I have small question

are most of those stage names or real names?

because some doesn't look as Thai names at all

also if there ain't that much of Thai trainees it means that we will get more international ones

These are "nicknames" and hardly has anything to do with race/ethnic.

For example, Chaba is a very Thai name (rose of sharon) and, she is obviously half white.

Crista does not have western background but her Christian mom wanted to name her child after Jesus.

If someone from Thai side dropped out, it only makes sense to fill the gap with Thai applicants if ever. Most likely, the spots for the dropped out were left vacant.

I'm amazed at the ratio of Thai contestants. I thought it might make up of 1/3 max. Not like half of these Thai contestants are debut worthy.
