Description:
In a culture where food is deeply intertwined with tradition, Thais have a strong connection to their favorite local comfort food shops and often refer to them as family, with names like Jeh Faii (meaning Sister Faii), Yai Puad (meaning Grandma Puad), or Loong Rong (meaning Uncle Rong). Becoming a daily choice amid these local food legends is no small challenge.
To shift the Thai perception of KFC from a distant luxury treat, the campaign "Uncle KFC's Rice Bowls" reimagines Colonel Sanders, the legendary fried chicken godfather, as a lovable, slightly awkward Thai "Loong" (Uncle) who sells rice bowls.
The 5-minute film humorously tackles the couple's lunch decision dilemma, often met with the girlfriend's classic response, "Anything. Up to you," which never truly means "Anything."
Blending Thai cultural elements, playful satire on government bureaucracy, and old-school slapstick comedy—performed with a harmless soft plastic tube—this comedic, culturally nuanced story offers unexpected entertainment and a fresh take on the iconic character.
