It has been told that Thai fans were greatly touched as Ren wearing their traditional outfit made the headlines on a large scale. In particular, attention seem to have heated up more, as the popularity of traditional costumes has heightened recently, due to the beloved Thai drama, Buppesannivas which took the Ayutthaya Kingdom as its background.
