According to twitter
"lisa can you teach me Japanese? I said hai hai" When I first listened to it, I was confused why she put in Japanese, girl. When I watched the MV, the hai part, she bowed, which was contradictory, so I thought it might be a sarcasm that when people say they're from Asia, people only know China and Japan. So I went back to watch the MV again from the perspective of how Thais and Asians are stereotyped and discriminated against. She put in a trans person, put in a guy who looks like a rough gangster, which is how foreigners view Thailand. She took 100 Thai kids and sat them in a row, dressed all the same. This might be a sarcasm that Asians all look the same. And on the other hand, when there's a famous person from Thailand or someone who's good-looking, people will say that they don't look like Thai people at all. Another thing is that when you look at the overall picture, everything looks the same, but the differences stand out, especially their skin color. And most of them are tan. This is very unexpected in this MV. She's not selling Thailand as a luxurious tourist city, but she's adding street style because it's a city and its people. Many people may be confused about what's Rockstar. It's a Rockstar attitude.

I completely agree. Loved it on first listen but it was over too quickly. I’m sure if she decides to release more music she’ll experiment with other sounds. Loved the MV and just how she’s so proud of her Thai heritage.
There's an extended version
