BK: How did you become involved in this movie?
It was kind of an accident. My friend heard that the producers of the movie were casting and she wanted to go. She asked me to tag along and the producer asked me to cast, too. We didn’t take any of this seriously. We were actually just on our way to a party. But then I was picked.

BK: So what are your plans now?
I just graduated from Suansunantha University where I studied cinema. But I don’t think I’m going to fulfill my dream as a filmmaker anymore. It’s just too difficult. Now I’m going to open a mobile shop with my brothers at MBK called Avolution. Look for us on the 4th floor, on the Tokyo side.

BK: When did you realize you’re gay?
When I was about 16. Before that, I had no idea that I actually like women. I didn’t even know what a tomboy was. All I knew was that I just love to look at girls more than boys! I studied at a mixed sex school. I was so confused. I asked myself, “Am I a tomboy?” But I finally made up my mind one night. I woke up and told my mom, “I will be a tomboy.” She didn’t take it seriously. She joked, “OK, just try for three days.” But it has lasted until now.

BK: Are your parents acceptant?
Yes, I think they like it. They are so chill. All they say is that I have to be a good person, that’s it. They also trust me to do some business for them, as if I were a guy. My two older brothers are also cool with this. One even boasts to friends that his tomboy sister is in the movies now.

BK: Do you have a girlfriend?
Not now. I’ve been single for two years after I have broke up with my girlfriend of five years. I was really hurt and worried. I wondered, who is going to love me for real? My mom even teases me about going back to being a “lady,” then I will find love. But I can’t do that. I can’t change myself. Now I feel much better and understand the problem. My ex and I had both changed. And I am happy to be single now. I feel free. I don’t want to rush into having a new lover. But if I am lucky, I will find the right one for me in the end.

BK: Do you think about working in the entertainment industry?
Not really. I don’t know what the future will hold. I will concentrate on my own business like my parents always have. I dream of opening a Thai restaurant as my mom can cook lots of great recipes that are super delicious. I also love cooking as well. I’m trying to learn more recipes from her. I can do quite a few now.
