Joining the entertainment industry is not an easy choice if you could even have the chance to choose. Especially if you are already steadily moving towards an end goal with a more stable - or traditional - guarantee of success. It takes guts, no doubt, and a certain resilience to deviate. But if one was truly meant to take the road less travelled, this leap of faith into the fertile grounds of the unknown will prove ever more fulfilling - unlocking the potential to break boundaries while discovering more and newer horizons.
Such is the case for Mew Suppasit-celebrated Thai actor, singer and entrepreneur - who was once set to pursue an esteemed career in industrial engineering. The Mew we are all familiar with as the character Tharn from the immensely popular TharnType: The Series was at one point a math and science enthusiast. Studious, yes, but there was always a bigger dreamer behind his hard-working and resourceful front. He got his start in the industry after being scouted by a modelling agency, but this exciting initiation into the bright new world of cameras and flashing lights did not let his passion for higher education waver. It only spurred the actor to continue to further his academic ambitions, while whetting his appetite for more on-screen opportunities.
More screen time was what the 32-year-old did get appearing in projects like Drama For All: Super Maen, Love Me Again, and Home School - and many upcoming ones that include a Korean-Thai collaboration series titled, Love Is Like A Cat. These collaborative endeavours also allowed him to explore his affection for musical expression, connecting with numerous artistes to hone a sound that only serves to stack on his admirable, multi-faceted approach to self-fulfilment and celebrating the joie de vivré. But the CEO of Mew Suppasit Studio is not done, just yet.
