At 3:10 p.m. on July 14, 2569, Suwanna Saetiao, the close sister of Jaruay Sermsiri, 25, confirmed that DNA test results have verified her sister's death. After Jaruay went missing, Suwanna searched multiple hospitals hoping to find her sister injured in a critical condition, but had no success. She then reported her missing to the coordination center at the incident location, and authorities coordinated with hospitals to check their patient rosters, though her sister was never found.

After their mother provided a DNA sample this afternoon, the comparison results confirmed that Jaruay had died. Suwanna said she came prepared with makeup and perfume to beautify her sister's body for the funeral, as her sister loved beauty and grooming. She wanted to do her best for her sister and provide comfort to the grieving family. Suwanna believes the incident resulted from negligence and insufficient safety at the entertainment venue, and hopes such tragedies never happen to anyone else again.

Regarding compensation, Suwanna acknowledged it will be necessary but said for now she wants to focus on completing her sister's funeral arrangements before pursuing that matter further.
