About ThaiGuys
I'm the editor behind ThaiGuys. I've been based in Bangkok since 2023. I write 102 in-depth guides across food, massage, nightlife, and travel tips β drafted in English first, then rewritten into Korean, Japanese, and Chinese. Not translated. Rewritten in the editorial register each market actually reads.
Every venue is visited firsthand
If a restaurant, massage shop, bar, or hotel is named in a guide here, I've been there. Photos are mine or AI-generated when the location can't be photographed cleanly. Stock photos aren't used for venue-specific writeups.
Prices are verified within the last 12 months
Bangkok prices move. The numbers in these guides were paid, asked, or checked recently. Baht is the base. KRW, JPY, CNY, and USD conversions are calculated at publish time using Google Finance rates and updated when the article is refreshed.
Each language is rewritten natively
The English draft sets the facts. Korean is written in the magazine register Korean readers actually click β informal, comparative, slightly self-deprecating. Japanese follows the γγγγ/MATCHA editorial tone with a ε¨δ½θ (resident) perspective. Chinese is written in ε°ηΊ’δΉ¦/馬θηͺ© first-person voice. AI translation tools are not used.
Public-interest pieces get independent fact-checking
Anything that names businesses β scam warnings, license issues, fraud reporting β goes through a second-pass verification round before publish. Single-source claims are toned down or removed. Where defamation risk exists, domains and entities are described by category rather than named.
Affiliate disclosure
Some hotel and tour booking links pay a small commission. It costs you nothing extra. The recommendation comes first; the affiliate link does not change which venue I pick. Active partners: Agoda, Klook, SafetyWing, Holafly.
