The first season featured 10 contestants who competed for the title of "Thailand's First Drag Superstar", a crown and scepter from Fierce Drag Jewels and a cash prize of ฿500,000 (≈ $16,000 USD).

The season was won by Natalia Pliacam, the franchise's first plus-size winner. The season's runners-up were Année Maywong and Dearis Doll. B Ella was crowned the season's Miss Congeniality.

In January 2022, it was confirmed that Pangina Heals would return to compete in RuPaul's Drag Race UK vs. The World (2022), where she would compete for the title of queen of the world. She ended up placing 6th.

Trivia

Season 1 of Drag Race Thailand is...
- the first Drag Race ever to have separated main challenge winner and runway challenge winner.
- the third non-All Stars season where every queen was in the bottom at least once.
- the third season of Drag Race to have a plus sized queen in the Top 3, and the first to have a plus-sized queen win the competition.
- the season with the lowest cash prize in the history of the franchise, at 15,920.
Amadiva is the first queen ever to be in both double shantay and double elimination.
- She was followed by Kana Warrior, although Kana was eliminated first, and then returned and had a double shantay with Angele Anang
JAJA is the only queen to not be from Thailand, she is from the Philippines and actually does not actually speak Thai.
Meannie Minaj is the first transgender queen on Drag Race Thailand, and the second queen to enter as an openly trans woman on Drag Race (See: Peppermint).
Morrigan is the youngest queen to ever compete on any Drag Race, at 18 years of age.
Born This Way and Toxic are the third and fourth songs to be used in two different lipsyncs, they were first used on Season 4 of America's Drag Race.
The studio set was built in one day.
The lip sync assassin of Drag Race Thailand Season 1 is Dearis Doll. Dearis eliminated Morrigan and B Ella.
Episode 3 was recorded on January 15th, 2018, as Morrigan's elimination was on her birthday.
Drag Race Thailand is the only international spin-off to not follow the Official Drag Race logo format
- This is due to the fact that the letter "G" is the stylized letter of the logo instead of it being the letter "R"
