Sook Jai

(สุขใจ) is a tribe from . Their tribe color is purple.
Tribe leader Jake Billingsley planned to choose tribemates based on physicality and youth under the belief they would dominate the season's challenges. Despite a strong start over the rival Chuay Gahn tribe, intertribal conflicts and throwing an Immunity Challenge fractured the tribe, causing a losing streak and leading to them entering the merge with only three members. The overwhelming 5-3 deficit eventually led to their extinction.

Conversely, the Chuay Gahn camp had a cave for shelter, but their water source was on another island.
* Sook Jai was the first purple tribe in .
