Khunnote Jirapat Uttamanan

Khunnote Jirapat Uttamanan (Thai: ขุนโน้ต จิรภัทร อุตมานันทน์; born September 30, 1984) is a Thai actor working mainly in film. He plays Kajorn Piyawanichkul in the 2026 revenge thriller Payback, appearing across all ten episodes as one of the figures holding a piece of what happened five years before the story opens. Away from television he has built one of the busier Thai film résumés of the 2020s, largely in supporting and character roles.

He is the second-oldest member of the Payback principal cast and came to screen work considerably later than his co-stars. His earliest dated credit is 2022, the year he turned 38, and it arrived in quantity rather than singly: four productions inside twelve months, including the comedy Fast & Feel Love as a bank teller, the horror The Beast Below as Fon’s father, an episode of School Tales the Series as a photographer, and Alone in Outing as Chok. No source states when he actually began working, so BLGLFLIX treats 2022 as the first documented year rather than as a debut.

The pattern since has been steady film work across genres. Bad Boyz Band and Back to Heaven followed in 2023, the latter as Boat, alongside the television series Get Rich, in which he played Instructor Jak across sixteen episodes. In 2024 he appeared in The Package as Ham, in YAKKU as เหมันต์, and in Caged Again as Son over ten episodes. Paws of Fate (2025) cast him as a Grim Reaper and The White Rabbit (2026) as Bird.

Payback is his largest television part to date and places him in an ensemble drawn from several different corners of the Thai industry: two of the leads are pop-adjacent performers from Aplan International, one is a Be On Cloud actor who started as a child, and he arrives from the film side entirely. His character sits among the figures whose knowledge of the past drives the plot rather than among the romantic principals.

He also had two further television appearances in the same year as Payback: My Heartbeat as James and The Rules, both single-episode credits. He is a Libra, born in the year of the Rat, and posts as khunnote_j on both Instagram and Threads. No agency, height, weight or blood type figures have been published for him by any source, and BLGLFLIX leaves those fields blank rather than reproduce estimates.
