BIOGRAPHY

If you met Earth in the mountains of A Tale of Thousand Stars, you are in very good company. Uff, Chief Phupha! Pirapat Watthanasetsiri (พิรพัฒน์ วัฒนเศรษสิริ), nicknamed Earth (เอิร์ท), is a Thai actor with GMMTV, born in Bangkok on 23 February 1994. He graduated in 2018 with a bachelor’s degree in performing arts from the Faculty of Fine Arts at Srinakharinwirot University, and he paints in his free time.

His first main role came in 2017, when he played Waii in Water Boyy on GMM 25. That same year he was Sakat in Miraigar T1 Season 2 on One 31. In 2018 he played So in Kiss Me Again and Type in Love by Chance, and in 2019 he was Aun in Theory of Love. He even took a main role abroad, as Tae in Victory Lap, a 2020 series on Singapore’s Channel 8.

Then came 2021. As Phupha Viriyanon in A Tale of Thousand Stars he worked opposite Mix Sahaphap Wongratch, who played Tian, and the screen pair known as EarthMix was born. The two later hosted their own YouTube variety show, EMS Earth-Mix Space, which later had a Japan edition too.

The partnership kept going. Earth played Korn Thapakorn Chaiphitak in Cupid’s Last Wish (2022), Jim Jaruek Nueangna-uam in Moonlight Chicken (2023), and Phupha once more in Our Skyy 2 (2023). Jim travelled with him to Japan for a guest spot in episode 4 of TV Asahi’s Ossan’s Love Returns in 2024. That year he also played Thap Thapchana in Ploy’s Yearbook, and in 2025 he became Heng Haran Thanahirankij in Ossan’s Love Thailand.

He has done strong work in supporting parts too. He was Kampan in Mama Gogo (2022) and Yang in Find Yourself (2023), the role that brought him Supporting Actor of the Year at the Maya TV Awards 2024. Earlier, A Tale of Thousand Stars won him Popular Lead Actor at the first Siam Series Awards in 2021.

In 2026 he plays Jack Jakkarin Jookamsri in Only Friends: Dream On, and he and Mix shared the Actor Award at the Japan Expo Thailand Award 2026. Next comes Cupid’s Ghost (ผีผลักให้รักคุณ), directed by Vorachai Nualsri for GMMTV and Cholumpi Brothers. Earth plays Jett Sukhati, who runs a funeral home and offers a job to a florist who is terrified of ghosts: talking to the spirits that pass through. Mix plays that florist, Phut, and Ohm Thitiwat Ritprasert appears as Ing.

Here is the thing I love most about Earth’s path: Jim crossed from a Thai series straight into a Japanese one, and then Earth came home to lead the Thai version of Ossan’s Love. That is a very neat little circle. My tip: if you only know him as Phupha, watch Moonlight Chicken next, because it is a whole different colour for EarthMix. And a funeral home romance where ghosts play cupid? Uff, I am counting the days. To me, he and Mix still feel as warm together as they did in Pha Pun Dao.
