Som Pak Sian is yet another showcase for the Issan native’s talents. In the Issan comedy Som Pak Sian, Sian (Tono Pakin) and Som (Em Busarakum) are high school sweethearts. Can you explain the meaning of the film’s title, Som Pak Sian? "Som pak sian" is the name of a vegetable dish in Issan that we usually eat with chilli paste. Why shouldn’t we miss Som Pak Sian?
