The body of a 33-year-old woman has been found after she went missing on July 28 following an apparent fall from Thao Thep Krasattri Bridge, with only a black Mercedes-Benz left abandoned on the structure. At 7:00 a.m. on July 30, 2025, rescue workers from Kusol Tham Phuket's Muang Mai unit, together with volunteer rescue team members, continued their search efforts and recovered the remains of Ms. Kanthapahorn (surname withheld), age 33, at Dan Yid Beach in Mai Khao subdistrict, Thalang district, Phuket.

After the body was discovered, officers coordinated with investigators and forensic specialists to examine the scene before transporting the remains for autopsy according to legal procedures. Family members will be contacted to arrange for religious funeral rites.

The case began when authorities received reports at 6:45 p.m. on July 28 from fishermen and residents that a young woman was believed missing after witnesses reported seeing someone fall from Thao Thep Krasattri Bridge near Ban Than Noen in Takua Thung district, Phang Nga. Following the report, police from Tha Chatchai Station in Phuket, along with officers from Khok Kloi Station in Phang Nga, village headman Phanuphan Jindapol of Tambon Mai Khao, rescue workers, and related agencies mobilized search efforts throughout the night both on the bridge and in the sea.

At the scene, a black Mercedes-Benz was found parked on the bridge with identification documents belonging to Ms. Kanthapahorn inside and a pair of flip-flops discovered near the incident location. Authorities contacted her family for information and launched a continuous search operation that ultimately led to the discovery of her remains.

A Thai translator in Georgia has disclosed that police are performing an autopsy on Hulun Solo, a young Thai survival YouTuber who died 10 days ago in a hotel in Georgia's capital. He checked in to the hotel but never left his room, and hotel reception discovered his body when staff entered. The phuttatalk channel released a video titled "Open Camera, Solve the Mystery of Hulun's Death—Georgian Police Reveal What Happened in the Room on July 19, with Results on July 30."

Hulun's close friend was interviewed about his travel habits, noting that he would normally reply to messages within 2–3 days, but this time went silent for about two weeks without responding to any messages. The friend said, "At first I didn't think much of it, but when he posted about going missing, I checked our chat and realized he hadn't answered me at all. That's when I started feeling something was strange." The friend also mentioned that this was the first trip where he didn't ask Hulun about his plans in advance, and that Hulun had planned to hire a local guide but provided no details this time.

Boy, a Thai translator based in Georgia, outlined the timeline of events. He explained that a Thai restaurant owner asked him to help locate Hulun. Boy first checked with immigration authorities and confirmed Hulun was still in Georgia. He contacted the tourism police and local police to file a missing-person report. When he went to the airport police station, officers informed him that Hulun had died 10 days earlier and that an autopsy was underway to determine the cause of death. Hotel staff confirmed that Hulun had checked in, never left his room, and was found dead by reception when they went to check on him. Boy learned that Hulun had arrived in Georgia on the night of July 13. After filing a missing-person report and coordinating with the Thai consulate, the police transferred the body for autopsy, and the case was handed over to consular officials.

Zhejiang Province is leveraging biotechnology and biological research to upgrade the lingzhi mushroom industry across cultivation, strain selection, processing, and quality verification, strengthening the local farming economy. Within a 2,500-square-meter demonstration zone at the Changchun Agriculture Expo, over 30 economic and medicinal mushroom varieties are displayed under technical support from Zhejiang Agricultural University. The facility is open to the public, farmers, and entrepreneurs for training in cultivation techniques, with experts offering guidance and purchasing products for processing.

The Lingzhi Research and Development Center, established in 2023 in Lingjia Village within the Jingye High-Tech Industrial Development Zone, now operates approximately 400 greenhouses and has become a major hub for producing lingzhi spores, a highly nutritious component. Experts noted that farmers initially lacked experience, but with support from biologists, plant geneticists, and data analysts, they have continuously refined cultivation techniques. Over three years, the center has produced approximately 1.5 million lingzhi fruiting bodies annually and over 15 million wood ear mushrooms, generating economic value exceeding 300 million yuan and creating over 2,000 local jobs.

The research team of Professor Li Wei, a leading mycology expert in China, provides technical support to the center. Their work has been applied across 28 provinces and 45 demonstration bases nationwide, supporting 22 leading enterprises and creating cumulative economic value exceeding 432.397 billion yuan. Local companies have developed a complete industrial chain encompassing strain selection, standardized cultivation, processing, quality inspection, and product standardization. Products are certified as organic and health products, with lingzhi mushrooms from Changbaizhan receiving geographic indication (GI) recognition in 2025, significantly boosting consumer confidence and doubling demand.

Researchers have also developed technology to verify the origin and authenticity of lingzhi spores using near-infrared spectral data, isotope information, and artificial intelligence, creating a fast, low-cost, user-friendly testing kit that confirms whether products are authentic lingzhi from Changbaizhan or contain adulterated materials from other regions.

Khwan Alai, a Chulalongkorn University Political Science scholarship student and older schoolmate, has paid tribute to Hulun Solo, her younger classmate, revealing that Hulun's scholarship was no simple achievement—he had to be exceptionally talented. She expressed pride in him for never using his lack of resources as an excuse to stop striving to improve his life.

Hulun Solo, a 27-year-old Thai travel YouTuber, passed away after rising from poverty to graduate from Chulalongkorn University's Political Science program and become a prominent social media content creator.

Khwan, also a scholarship student and senior in Political Science at Chulalongkorn, posted a tribute to Hulun. Many who knew or followed Hulun's story have expressed their condolences on social media. Among them is Khwan Pimpapson Thiamseewat, daughter of Tasanawan Seneewong Na Ayutthaya and Sorappong Chatri, who shared a photo of Hulun with a heartfelt message:

"Hulun was a younger schoolmate in Political Science at Chulalongkorn who reminds me of my political science friends who came from the provinces to study in the dormitory, but were incredibly talented and determined. They made even Bangkok kids like me feel ashamed. That was Hulun.

We were both scholarship students, but Hulun's scholarship wasn't something anyone could easily obtain. He had to be exceptionally talented," she wrote.

"Hulun had a deep bond with his grandmother, just like I do with mine. My grandmother dresses like that, fights through life like that, gardens like that. You can see how much grandmother and grandchild loved each other. Your grandmother should be incredibly proud of herself and of Hulun—that he never used the excuse of lacking resources to stop striving to improve his life, even though doing so would have been far easier and more comfortable."

Khwan concluded her tribute by thanking Hulun for using his entire life as inspiration for many. "People naturally aspire to goodness. No matter how difficult their circumstances, they will find a way to do good. May Hulun find eternal peace. Thank you for using your whole life as a beautiful inspiration for so many, in a way that was dignified and truly admirable." Entertainment figures and netizens alike have joined in expressing their condolences.
