Max Kornthas Rujeerattanavorapan

BIOGRAPHY

Max Kornthas Rujeerattanavorapan (Thai: แม็ค กรธัสส์ รุจีรัตนาวรพันธ์; born October 25, 1993) is a Thai actor, model, and television host signed to Domundi TV. He is one of the most consistently employed supporting actors in Thai BL, with credits stretching from Why R U? in 2020 to four separate 2026 productions.

He was born in Bangkok and came to acting sideways, studying civil engineering at King Mongkut’s University of Technology Thonburi rather than taking a performing-arts route. He made his screen debut in 2017 with a guest part in Diamond Eyes, but the career only took hold in 2020, when he played Dew in Why R U?: The Series.

From there he became a fixture of the Domundi roster: Sun in Y-Destiny (2021), Titan in Close Friend (2021), and the role he is best known for, Yi (Phayak Chatdecha Chen) in Cutie Pie (2022), which he carried through to Naughty Babe (2023) as a lead. He also appeared as Thai in Two Worlds (2024), Thorn in Zomvivor (2025) and Sun in Suntiny (2025).

In early 2022 he changed his given name from Saran to Kornthas following consultation with a Buddhist monk, a common practice in Thailand. Older credits and database entries still carry the previous name, which is why he appears under both and why his filmography is easy to split in half by mistake.

2026 has been his densest year: Pen-neung, Jay’s best friend, in Payback; Lalit in ChermChey; X in Duang with You; and Song/Sam Traiphop Adisuan in Your Third, his first outright lead of the year. His Domundi work also extends to hosting, on programmes including DMD Friendship The Reality. On BLGLFLIX he is currently attached to two titles: Payback, where his role is a guest appearance, and ChermChey, where he is supporting cast.

TRIVIA

  • He changed his given name from Saran to Kornthas in early 2022 after consulting a Buddhist monk. Databases and older credits still list both, which is why he turns up under two names.
  • He trained as a civil engineer at King Mongkut’s University of Technology Thonburi before acting became a career.
  • His screen debut was a guest role in Diamond Eyes (2017), three years before the part that established him.
  • Why R U?: The Series (2020), as Dew, is where the working career actually begins.
  • His best-known character is Yi, Phayak Chatdecha Chen, played in Cutie Pie (2022) and carried into Naughty Babe (2023) as a lead.
  • He has been on the Domundi TV roster throughout, which is why so much of the filmography sits inside that studio’s BL output.
  • In Payback (2026) he plays Pen-neung, described in the credits as Jay’s best friend, a guest role, not supporting.
  • 2026 is his busiest year on record: Payback, ChermChey, Duang with You and Your Third.
  • Sources disagree on his birth date. English Wikipedia and TMDB’s person record both give 25 October 1993; TVmaze alone gives 10 October 1993. The agreement is used here and the disagreement is recorded rather than hidden.
  • His agency publishes no measurements. Unlike GMMTV, Domundi TV does not run individual artist profile pages, so no height, weight, body type or blood type figure exists from a first-party source and all four fields are deliberately blank rather than estimated.
  • His verified handles were published by Domundi TV itself, Instagram @mmaxmax and X @MMaxmaxxxx, and independently match the handles held in TMDB’s structural record.
  • His identifiers are IMDb nm11529274, TMDB person 2771759 and Wikidata Q115480403.

EDUCATION

  • King Mongkut’s University of Technology Thonburi, Civil Engineering. Corroborated independently by English Wikipedia and a second database record; no graduation year is stated by either, so none is asserted here.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Who is Max Kornthas Rujeerattanavorapan?

Max Kornthas Rujeerattanavorapan is a Thai actor, model and television host born on 25 October 1993 in Bangkok, contracted to Domundi TV. He has worked steadily in Thai BL since 2020 and is best known as Yi in Cutie Pie and Naughty Babe.

Who does Max play in Payback (2026)?

He plays Pen-neung, described in the credits as Jay’s best friend. It is a guest role rather than a main or supporting one, so he appears in a limited number of episodes.

Why is he listed under two different names?

He changed his given name from Saran to Kornthas in early 2022 after consulting a Buddhist monk, which is a common practice in Thailand. Credits made before the change still read Saran Rujeerattanavorapan, so databases carry both.

What is Max's most famous role?

Yi, full character name Phayak Chatdecha Chen, in Cutie Pie (2022). He carried the character into the spin-off Naughty Babe (2023), where it became a lead role rather than a supporting one.

What agency is Max with?

Domundi TV, a Thai production company that specialises in BL. Most of his filmography sits inside that studio’s output, which is why his credits cluster around Why R U?, Cutie Pie, Naughty Babe and Y-Destiny.

What did Max study?

Civil engineering, at King Mongkut’s University of Technology Thonburi. He moved into acting afterwards rather than through a performing-arts route.

When did Max start acting?

His first credit is a guest role in Diamond Eyes (2017), but the working career begins in 2020 with Dew in Why R U?: The Series. Everything before that is a single appearance.

What is Max in for 2026?

Four productions, Payback as Pen-neung, ChermChey as Lalit, Duang with You as X, and Your Third as Song/Sam Traiphop Adisuan. Your Third is the only lead role among them.

How old is Max Kornthas?

He was born on 25 October 1993, making him 32 as of August 2026. English Wikipedia and TMDB’s person record agree on that date; TVmaze records 10 October 1993, and BLGLFLIX follows the sources that agree.

Where was Max Kornthas born?

Bangkok, Thailand. English Wikipedia states only the country, but TMDB’s structural person record gives the city, and the two do not conflict.

Is Max in Cutie Pie and Naughty Babe the same character?

Yes. Yi, or Phayak Chatdecha Chen, is one continuous character across both. Naughty Babe is a spin-off of Cutie Pie built around that pairing, so the role expands from supporting to lead between the two.

What are Max Kornthas's official social media accounts?

Instagram @mmaxmax and X @MMaxmaxxxx. Both were published by his agency, Domundi TV, on its own account and match the handles held in TMDB’s structural record. A TikTok handle circulates but appears in only one source, so no TikTok link is recorded here.

How tall is Max Kornthas?

No height figure is published for him by any admissible source. Thai agencies routinely publish measurements for their artists, but Domundi TV does not run individual artist profile pages of the kind GMMTV maintains, so the field is left blank rather than filled with a fan estimate.
