Mister International 2023 is scheduled to be held in Bangkok on 23 Sept

Before that, Thailand will select its representative tonight (3 Sept). Last night was preliminaries.

 

Watching that vdo, I do wish each contestant had worn a number. I also found it rather strange that the models were all virtually identical in height with almost the same sculpted bodies. I'd have assumed a slightly greater variety (or perhaps would have wished for a greater variety since that model look is not my type 😉)

I was not aware until I looked up wikipedia that Mister International was actually founded by a Singaporean and run from Singapore from 2006 to 2021. With the death of the founder, the organisation has been moved to Thailand and has a Thai President. Originally it was only for single men. Since the move, fathers, married and divorced men are now permitted to enter as contestants. It has always been held in Asia.

Interestingly, the country with the most titles is Lebanon with 3. Vietnam and Brazil come second with 2. Thailand has never won nor have its entrants ever come in any subsequent positions from 2nd to 5th. I find that rather surprising given that of Asian contestants Vietnam, South Korea and The Philippines have each had 3 finalists in the top 5, whereas Singapore, Japan,  Indonesia, India, Hong Kong and China have each had one. Last year, though, Mr Thailand won the Mister Photogenic prize.

Ewwww, too much make-up.

I like 3rd one in preliminary video the best. Agree with Peter they should wear number or other identifying sign but lack of it may be by design.

Greater variety would be nice but I guess they  selected contestants with chance of winning.

I did not notice but really  I was focusing on other parts than faces  , those  covered , wondering what mysteries are there

Should it be slightly less surpising given that this is the first pageant since the death of the founder and the purchase of the Mister International franchise by a Thai company with a Thai President?

I can't say is undeserved though, Quasimodo he is not

That is correct.  I was asking for the forum readers just in case.
