Naphat Chitveerapat

BIOGRAPHY

Naphat Chitveerapat (Thai: ณภัทร จิตวีรภัทร), known by the nickname Paw (ป้อ) and also romanised Naphat Jitweerapat, is a Thai screenwriter and director working at GMMTV. He is credited on all twelve episodes of 23.5 (2024).

His first credit is the screenplay for The Ugly Ghost (2014). In 2017 he directed 15+ Coming of Age and wrote both its story and its screenplay. The same year he is credited on the U-Prince series. From there his work is almost entirely writing for long-form series. The credits include A Gift to the People You Hate (2019, 10 episodes), The Effect (2019), Who Are You (2020, 18 episodes), Baker Boys (2021, 12 episodes), Remember 15 (2022, 12 episodes), Midnight Series: Dirty Laundry (2023, 6 episodes) and Home School (2023, 18 episodes).

He returned to directing with My Precious (2023), which he also wrote, and My Precious The Series (2024, 10 episodes). In 2024 he was credited on 23.5 and on all sixteen episodes of High School Frenemy, and took advisory credits on three further productions: executive consultant on Crazy Soft Power Love and consulting producer on Believe a Lust and Landscape of Us on Fire.

The next two years added Us and Love Design in 2025, and Moonshadow in 2026. Us is a twelve episode GMM 25 series that aired from 18 January to 5 April 2025. Love Design is an eight episode series that ran from 2 October to 13 November 2025. Moonshadow, a ten episode GMM 25 and oneD series that began on 12 August 2026, is adapted from a novel by Flower of Memory and credits him alongside Lalil Kittitanaphan.

The writers of 23.5

23.5 carries three writing credits across every episode: Naphat Chitveerapat, Lalil Kittitanaphan and Nichaphat Buranadilok. The same trio is credited across all eighteen episodes of Home School (2023) and all sixteen of High School Frenemy (2024). It returns on Us and Love Design. On Who Are You (2020) the third seat is held by Parkpoom Nuntalit instead.

The partnership with Kanittha Kwunyoo

Naphat Chitveerapat and Kanittha Kwunyoo are credited together on twelve separate productions across more than a decade:

  • The Ugly Ghost (2014), both on the screenplay
  • 15+ Coming of Age (2017), he directs and writes, she produces
  • A Gift to the People You Hate (2019), both writing
  • Who Are You (2020), he writes, she directs
  • Baker Boys (2021), he writes, she produces
  • My Precious (2023) and My Precious The Series (2024)
  • Home School (2023), he writes, she directs
  • 23.5 (2024), he writes, she directs and produces
  • High School Frenemy (2024), he writes, she directs
  • Us (2025), he writes, she directs
  • Moonshadow (2026), he writes, she directs

Naphat Chitveerapat’s 2024 credits cover writing, directing and advisory work.

He wrote two series that year, 23.5 with twelve episodes and High School Frenemy with sixteen, directed My Precious The Series, and held the three advisory credits on Crazy Soft Power Love, Believe a Lust and Landscape of Us on Fire.

In my view the most useful way to read the list is as a long collaboration. Two people who began on the same 2014 screenplay were still working together in 2026, with him writing and her directing on the last four. What I would watch first is Who Are You, because it is the earliest place where the pairing runs as writer and director over eighteen episodes, before the school stories and the Girls’ Love series that came after.
