Born as the first son of a family in Rayong, Kijmanoch Rojanasupya knew all along that he was a girl deep inside. He preferred to be among girls, putting make-up on his face and speaking with a high-pitched voice. He tried his best to never let his parents find out, but there were times his cousin tried to confront his parents about his sexual orientation.
Worse, his cousin once said something that shot right through his heart _ "you were born worthless".
Now the owner of Pinnacle, the famous tutorial school in Siam Square, Kijmanoch has grown up to be a proud transgender woman who is a well-known and respected Thai language tutor and media personality. Students and her admirers now dearly call her by her nickname "Kru Lilly".
