Hello Stranger (Thai: กวน มึน โฮ, RTGS: Kuan Muen Ho) is a 2010 romantic-comedy Thai film produced by Banjong Pisanthanakun, starring Chunthawit Thanasewi (Thai: ฉันทวิชช์ ธนะเสวี) and Nuengthida Sophon (Thai: หนึ่งธิดา โสภณ). It was Banjong's first romantic film, which was inspired by the book Two Shadows in Korea (Thai: สองเงาในเกาหลี, Song Ngao Nai Kao Li) by Songkalot Bangyikhun (Thai: ทรงกลด บางยี่ขัน).[1]
Hello Stranger portrays a young Thai man and woman who meet by coincidence while on vacation in South Korea. They decide to tour Korea together while keeping their names secret from each other. The movie was filmed in Korea and includes various locations that have appeared in Korean dramas that were broadcast in Thailand.
The cast, the director, and the musical group 25 Hours (Thai: ทเวนตีไฟฟ์อาวส์) performed the song Nice Not to Meet You (Thai: ยินดีที่ไม่รู้จัก, Yin Di Thi Mai Ru Chuk).
