MaxNat
Max Kornthas Rujeerattanavorapan and Nat Natasit Uareksit did not start as leads. They started as the second couple. In Why R U? (2020) Max played Dew and Nat played Blue, both supporting parts, and the response to that thread was strong enough that Domundi TV, the studio both are signed to, handed them a series of their own the following year with Y-Destiny (2021). They are still working as a pair six years later, which in Thai BL is a longer run than most pairings get.
The label MaxNat is not a fan coinage that quietly stuck. It appears on an industry ballot: the pair was nominated for Y Couple of the Year at the 2024 Y Entertain Awards, entered as MaxNat (Max and Nat). Regional press uses the same order, including Philippine coverage of their fan meetings in Manila, so the order on this page is taken from usage rather than assumed.
The Cutie Pie line is the route most viewers arrive through. Max played Phayak Chatdecha Chen, called Yi, and Nat played Thacha Wongtheerawit, called Khondiao, first as the secondary couple in Cutie Pie (2022) and then as the leads of Naughty Babe (2023). That is a promotion the genre does not hand out often: a side pairing carrying its own spin-off. From there the two went on working outside romance, in the Netflix survival series Zomvivor (2025), and outside their studio’s usual channels, with Two Worlds (2024) on iQIYI.
Their current leading work is Your Third (2026), twelve episodes on GMM 25, where Max plays a farm owner who has spent years as the third person in someone else’s life and Nat plays the assistant sent to bring him home. Both also appear in ChermChey the same year, Max in a supporting part and Nat as a guest, and Max guests in Payback.
Max Kornthas is almost nine years older than Nat Natasit and noticeably taller, and the pairing has used that difference rather than smoothed it over: Max tends to play the one who arrives with a plan, Nat the one who refuses to be handled. What has kept the pair working since 2020 is that they were never locked into a single register. Between them they have played a side couple, a lead couple, a spin-off pairing, an iQIYI fantasy and a Netflix survival series, which is a wider range than most long-running Thai BL pairs are given.
