Mark Pakin Kunaanuwit

Remember Tiwson in My School President (2022)? That is where I first noticed Mark, and honestly, it was hard to look away. Pakin Kunaanuwit (ภาคิน คุณาอนุวิทย์), nicknamed Mark (มาร์ค), is a Thai actor with GMMTV and a former badminton player, born on 2 June 1998 in Bangkok. He finished secondary school at Wat Suthiwararam School and went on to earn a master’s degree in Public Administration from the Faculty of Political Science at Bangkokthonburi University.

Before acting he played badminton at a high level. With his partner Natthapat Trinkajee he reached the boys’ doubles final at the 2016 BWF World Junior Championships in Bilbao, Spain, and the pair won the men’s doubles at the 2016 Bulgaria International.

On screen he started small, as Mek in two episodes of I Promised You the Moon and Chang, one of Pat’s friends, in Bad Buddy, both in 2021. Then came Tiwson Sophonpatima in My School President and Jedi in The Warp Effect in 2022, and he brought Tiwson back for Our Skyy 2 in 2023.

2023 was a packed year. He played Saleng in Moonlight Chicken, took a main role as Nick in Only Friends and played Night in Last Twilight. Night won him Best Supporting Actor at the Y Universe Awards 2024, and that year he was also named Rising Male Star of the Year at the Best Artist Award 2024. In 2024 he played Chadjen in High School Frenemy.

In 2025 he led the romantic comedy Sweet Tooth, Good Dentist as Jay, opposite Ohm Thipakorn Thitathan. He also played Sunrise in MuTeLuv: Fist Foot Fusion. In 2026 he returned as Nick for a guest spot in episode 10 of Only Friends: Dream On on One 31, and he has a supporting role in Inherit, a GDH horror film that was given a world premiere slot at TIFF 2026.

Two GMMTV series presented at the GMMTV 2026 line up event on 25 November 2025 put him back in the lead. In The Spooky Love Tale (เขียนผีให้เธอรัก) he plays Min, a man haunted by the very ghosts that a horror novelist named Chan, played by Ohm Thipakorn, wrote into his book. In Roommate Chaos (หอในหัวใจวุ่นรัก) he plays Pao Kiattipoom, one of six roommates whose three love stories, from three webnovels by JittiRain, all unfold in one busy dormitory.
