Sending my love and encouragement to all the fans who have always followed the rules, without any privileges, and have continuously supported #LingOrm.
As a Thai fan, I can truly feel your sincerity, dedication, and all the effort you’ve put into supporting them ♥️
Paris this time left me with a lot of mixed feelings.
This was my fourth PFW with #LingOrm, so I know how hectic these events can be and that security is necessary. But yesterday, a lot of us walked away feeling genuinely defeated and disappointed with how things were handled on the ground.
Fans arrived early, listened to security, stayed where they were told and followed the rules, only to lose their positions while others were allowed ahead. After hours of waiting, watching people realize that doing everything right still didn’t matter was honestly painful. I really hope the Dior event team takes something away from this. Safety comes first, but organization and fairness matter too. Security lost control of rouge people who’s not really fans.
What I don’t want lost in that disappointment is the fans. JKR came from the US, UK, Canada, Germany, the Netherlands, Philippines, Thailand, Hong Kong and beyond. Some were there from 4AM, some waited outside Dior the day before, some went to the airport while respecting their space.
Paris isn’t home for many of us. People took time off, booked flights and hotels and travelled thousands of miles simply to show up for #Linglingkwong & #OrmKornnaphat . That’s why yesterday hurt a little more.
Paris will always be special. Dior was LingOrm’s first big international break, and four PFWs later, some of the people who were there at the beginning are still here today.
None of this changes my love for them. I still love Ling. I still love Orm. And even after a day that hurt, I would show up for them all over again.
Maybe Paris didn’t go the way we hoped this time, til next time! 💜
