Like I said, he really wants to be a good director, he is very passionate. I did not see bad side in Direk Xi. He is very good,” Miranda said during the media conference of Kuman Thong last June 19.</p><p>“Actually, on this set I was ready. When I ask him what to do— he says ‘whatever you feel,’ As an actor, it feels good to act out what I felt or how I understood the script. Direk Xian trusted I will do well,” she added.</p><p>Miranda said both Lee and Lim were “very passionate” on set, which sometimes led to clashes, but she clarified that they always resolved these professionally, with the best intentions for the film&#x27;s outcome.</p><p>“I will be honest. May times they argue. But it is good, because there are two ideas. Sometimes, an idea needs to be contradicted. I don’t think it was bad. Sometimes they would argue in a scene, but we think its for the best of the script. They really were helping each other. They always meet halfway,” she said.</p><div><ivs-player data-ivs-key="e8c22c015ca9eafa76f1e3edfa03c603" data-ivs-spid="3001339" data-ivs-vid="2910531"></ivs-player></div><script src="https://player.ivideosmart.com/ivsplayer/v4/dist/js/loader.js"></script><div><ivs-player data-ivs-key="e8c22c015ca9eafa76f1e3edfa03c603" data-ivs-spid="3001339" data-ivs-vid="3053641"></ivs-player></div><script src="https://player.ivideosmart.com/ivsplayer/v4/dist/js/loader.js"></script><div><ivs-player data-ivs-key="e8c22c015ca9eafa76f1e3edfa03c603" data-ivs-spid="3001339" data-ivs-vid="3053848"></ivs-player></div><script src="https://player.ivideosmart.com/ivsplayer/v4/dist/js/loader.js"></script>
