NuNew Chawarin Perdpiriyawong

Three roles in one series is a lot, even for a musical. In Hug E-Lhee The Musical NuNew plays Noi, and also Nid and Niche, because the story has identical twins in the mix. Chawarin Perdpiriyawong (ชวรินทร์ เพริศพิริยะวงศ์), nicknamed NuNew (นุนิว), is an actor, singer and host born on 25 July 2001 in Lat Krabang district, Bangkok. He works with Domundi. On 12 October 2023 he graduated with a bachelor’s degree in Chinese language from the Faculty of Humanities of Kasetsart University, which later gave him its Outstanding Alumni Award for his support of charitable work.

Show business found him first. A manager reached out to him on Facebook, and although he had never thought about the industry, he talked it over with his parents and gave it a try. After signing with Domundi he appeared in the reality show DMD Reality in 2021. His acting debut came in 2022 as Kuea Keerati in Cutie Pie, opposite Pruk Panich (Zee). The BL series made him famous in Thailand and abroad, and Howe Magazine named him among the 50 most influential people of the year. He returned as Kuea in Cutie Pie 2 You and Naughty Babe in 2023, and that year he also starred in Mission Fan-Possible as Nanai and in the film After Sundown as Rawi.

His music career grew alongside the acting. After singing for the Cutie Pie soundtrack, he recorded “True Love” for To Sir, With Love in September 2022 and wrote its Chinese lyrics. His first single, “Anything”, came out in July 2023 and reached number 12 on the Billboard World Digital Song Sales chart. His first solo concert, Dream Catcher, filled Impact Arena on 10 and 11 August 2024 with more than 20,000 tickets sold, then toured Asia until a final stop in Seoul in March 2026. His Japanese single “First Date at Shibuya”, released on 20 November 2024 with Sony Music Entertainment Japan, climbed to number 5 on the Oricon daily singles chart. He made his South Korean debut on 30 September 2025 with “Leave Me With Your Love”, and his second concert, Born to Be NuNew, played Impact Arena on 31 October and 1 November 2026.

On screen, 2025 brought Prince Khanin in The Next Prince, Non in the Netflix series Zomvivor and Copter in the musical comedy film Beauty and the Beat. In 2026 he plays Juno, a supporting role, in Mr. Fanboy. Next comes Passenger Seat Number X, where he plays Song, a flight attendant at Silver Lining Air whose former boyfriend Pat, played by Zee, turns up as the airline’s new CEO.
