Pooh Krittin Kitjaruwannakul, Thai actor signed to CHANGE2561, known as Charlie in Pit Babe

Pooh Krittin Kitjaruwannakul

BIOGRAPHY

Krittin Kitjaruwannakul (Thai: กฤติน กิจจารุวรรณกุล; born 4 July 2003), known professionally as Pooh (Thai: พูห์), is a Thai actor signed to CHANGE2561. He is known for playing Charlie in Pit Babe (2023) and its 2025 second season, and is one half of the PoohPavel on-screen pairing with Pavel Naret Promphaopun.

His first credited screen role was Charlie, which is unusual in itself. Most performers reach a lead in a flagship series through supporting work; his career opens on one. Pit Babe went out on One31 in Thailand and on iQIYI internationally, in two separate edits broadcast an hour apart, and the series carried both his debut and the launch of the pairing he has worked inside ever since.

Everything he has filmed since has been alongside the same co-star. Pit Babe 2 returned him to Charlie in 2025. The same year brought Goddess Bless You From Death, a horror mystery in which he plays Thup Thammawat, and 2026 brought The Grim Lover, where he is credited in a double role as Fourteen, also rendered Sipsi, and Rafah. Four productions, one partner, and a genre spread that runs from motorsport fantasy through horror.

Alongside acting he is reading for a bachelor’s degree in Robotics and Artificial Intelligence at Chulalongkorn University, which he had not completed when this profile was compiled.

Recognition arrived quickly. He took Rookie of the Year at the 2024 Mint Awards and Prince of Boys’ Love at the 2024 Y Entertain Awards, then Rising Icon at the 2025 Howe Awards, Artist of the Year on National Youth Day 2025, and the Popular Vote at the 2025 Thailand Y Content Awards. In 2026 he won Outstanding Actor of the Year at the Kazz Awards. A further run of prizes, listed on this page under awards, was given to him jointly with his co-star rather than alone.

He was born on 4 July 2003, which makes him a Cancer. His Chinese zodiac sign is the Goat.

Read his awards list as a document and it stops being a list of prizes.

Half the entries on this page name his co-star inside the award itself: Best Chemistry, Next Generation, Best BL Couple, Couple of the Year, Popular Leading Actor, Y Couple of the Year. These are not two people happening to win the same night. They are categories that only exist because the Thai industry treats a performer pairing as a thing that can be nominated.

That is worth stating plainly, because the named pairing is recorded here almost entirely on Thai productions. The awards circuit is one of the mechanisms that keeps that true. A Japanese or Korean boys love cast has no equivalent category to be entered into, so no comparable record accumulates.

His filmography makes the same point from the other side. It contains four titles and one co-star, from Pit Babe onward, held together by CHANGE2561, the company that manages them both and that publishes the pairing name itself. When a single company holds the contracts, the casting and the promotion, a career and a pairing become the same object.

The detail we keep coming back to is the degree. He has been reading robotics and artificial intelligence at Chulalongkorn while playing a driver in a series about engineered ability, which is a coincidence and nothing more, but a good one.

FUN FACTS

  • His first credited acting role was a lead in a flagship series, not a supporting part.
  • Every title in his filmography so far has been made with the same co-star.
  • He is reading for a degree in Robotics and Artificial Intelligence at Chulalongkorn University.
  • He was born on 4 July 2003, which makes him a Cancer.
  • Because he was born after the 2003 Lunar New Year, his Chinese zodiac sign is the Goat.
  • He won Rookie of the Year at the Mint Awards the year after his debut.
  • In The Grim Lover (2026) he is credited in two roles rather than one.
  • Pit Babe was broadcast in two separate edits an hour apart, so viewers saw different versions depending on where they watched.
  • He is six years younger than his regular co-star.
  • His agency, CHANGE2561, uses the Thai form พูห์พาเวล alongside the roman PoohPavel when it promotes the pairing.

TRIVIA

  • His legal name is Krittin Kitjaruwannakul (กฤติน กิจจารุวรรณกุล); Pooh (พูห์) is the Thai nickname he works under, as is standard in the Thai industry.
  • His on-screen pairing with Pavel Naret Promphaopun is published by their agency as PoohPavel, in that order.
  • He plays Charlie across both seasons of Pit Babe, in 2023 and again in 2025.
  • His 2025 credit Goddess Bless You From Death is a horror mystery rather than a romance, and is not yet recorded as a title in this catalogue.
  • Eight of the award entries recorded on this page are in couple or chemistry categories shared with his co-star.
  • He is managed by CHANGE2561, which also manages his co-star and which runs the CHANGE FANDAY events the pairing appears at.
  • No height, weight or blood type is published here, because this site records physical measurements only when an agency page or an equally reliable source states them and a second independent source confirms them.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What is unusual about Pooh Krittin's first credit?

It is a lead. Charlie in Pit Babe, in 2023, was his first credited screen role of any kind. Most performers reach a flagship lead through supporting work first, and his career simply opens on one.

Has he worked with anyone other than his regular co-star?

Not so far. Every title in his filmography has been made with the same partner: Pit Babe, Pit Babe 2, Goddess Bless You From Death and The Grim Lover. Four productions, one co-star. This site documents that working partnership and asserts nothing about either man beyond the screen.

Why do so many of his awards name another actor?

Because the Thai awards circuit runs couple and chemistry categories that a performer pairing is entered into as a single unit. Eight of the entries on this page are in such categories, and that circuit is one of the mechanisms keeping the named pairing a Thai industry practice rather than a regional one.

What has he won in his own right?

Rookie of the Year at the 2024 Mint Awards, Prince of Boys’ Love at the 2024 Y Entertain Awards, Rising Icon at the 2025 Howe Awards, Artist of the Year on National Youth Day 2025, the Popular Vote at the 2025 Thailand Y Content Awards, and Outstanding Actor of the Year at the 2026 Kazz Awards.

What is he studying?

Robotics and artificial intelligence, for a bachelor’s degree at Chulalongkorn University in Bangkok, which was still in progress when this profile was compiled. He has been reading it while playing a driver in a series built around engineered ability.

How many parts does he play in The Grim Lover?

Two. He is credited in a double role in the 2026 production, as Fourteen, which is also rendered Sipsi, and as Rafah. It is the only credit on his record where he carries more than one character.

Why did viewers see different versions of Pit Babe?

Because it went out in two separate edits, broadcast an hour apart, on One31 in Thailand and on iQIYI internationally. Which cut a viewer saw depended entirely on where they watched it.
