BIOGRAPHY

Chimon Wachirawit Ruangwiwat keeps running into the same classmates. He was Andrew, a main role, in Blacklist (2019), the series where View Benyapa Jeenprasom made her debut. Four years later the two were in Home School, Dangerous Romance and My Precious together, and back in 2018 his co-lead in the web series YOUniverse was Ciize Rutricha Phapakithi. A GMMTV career that started in its teen dramas has a long memory for faces.

Wachirawit Ruangwiwat (วชิรวิชญ์ เรืองวิวรรธน์), nicknamed Chimon, was born in Bangkok on 15 January 2000. At Assumption College he played on the football team, and in 2023 he earned a bachelor’s degree in Film Studies from the School of Digital Media and Cinematic Arts at Bangkok University.

His first screen appearance was in the 2006 film 13 Beloved. He debuted as an actor in the 2015 film Ghost Ship, took a main role in Sweet Boy (2016) and played Toy in Senior Secret Love: My Lil Boy 2. GMMTV then gave him a string of leads: Sun in My Dear Loser: Edge of 17 (2017) and again in Our Skyy (2018), Wave, full name Wasuthorn Worachotmethee, in The Gifted (2018) and The Gifted: Graduation (2020), and Andrew in Blacklist. He was Prince in He’s Coming to Me (2019) and Dan in The Player (2021).

The later list moves between leads and support. He played Tum in School Tales The Series and Ben in Never Let Me Go (2022), Pennueng in Home School and Sailom Homchan in Dangerous Romance (2023), and Bank in My Precious The Series (2024). In 2025 came Thana in Hide & Sis, a guest part as Atom in The Dark Dice and Champ in Dare You to Death, and in 2026 he played Kong in Match Point. Next are Koh in Gunshot, Nile in Cupid’s Ghost and a main role in Police Chap Khamoi.

What strikes me about Chimon’s list is the shape of it. He carried series as a lead from 2017 to 2023, and every credit since 2024 has been a supporting or guest part, until the main role waiting in Police Chap Khamoi. Dare You to Death and Match Point both put him inside large casts, which is a different job from carrying a series.

My tip: go back to The Gifted first. Wave carries a whole school story, and he makes a good measure for the ensemble work Chimon does now.
