Background
The actor we all know and love as Dew, or Jirawat Sutivanichsak, was born on 30 October 2000, with Kongkidakorn as his first name. He changed his given name from Kongkidakorn to Jirawat in fourth grade.
He is studying at Srinakharinwirot University (SWU) in Bangkok, Thailand, specifically under the College of Social Communication and Innovation. He is majoring in Interactive and Multimedia Design, which has courses on graphic design and video editing among many others.
He has exceptional drawing skills
Dew’s talent in art is exceptional, to say the least. He occassionally posts his sketches on his Instagram page, with the most recent one being a drawing of a skull disjointed by an arm reaching through it.
The actor mentioned in his May 2023 BAZAAR Man interview that he took art classes and was heavily influenced by his father’s love for art, so much so that he considered it to be a viable career path for himself.
He was a runway model
In a turn of events, Dew Jirawat strayed from the path of an artist and found a start in modelling, all thanks to his height. Standing tall at 1.9m, Dew got the chance to model during Millennial’s Choice 2019 in Thailand.
In the same year, he modelled for the Thai brand, Q DESIGN AND PLAY.
Acting career
Dew’s acting debut came in 2021, when he starred in F4 Thailand: Boys Over Flowers. The show instantly catapulted the actor to fame, as he acted with Tu Tontawan Tantivejakul, Prim Chanikarn Tangkabodee, and of course, Bright, Win, and Nani.
Since then, he has acted in several pieces, including a mystery series titled Home School, and a romance drama titled Faceless Love with actress Supassra Thanachat. More recently, he reunited with his F4 co-star, Prim Chanikarn in A Love So Beautiful.

He sings OSTs
Starting from F4 Thailand, Dew has flaunted his voice in several drama soundtracks. His song “In The Wind” is about unrequited love and being too afraid to express one’s love—(spoiler alert) perhaps a fitting song for his character Ren, who ends up being the heartbroken second lead in the show.
Dew also sang several other OSTs, including “Who Am I” and “Shooting Star” for F4 Thailand, and “North Star” for A Love So Beautiful.
He’s an ambassador for Bottega Veneta
In April 2024, Dew was appointed as a brand ambassador for Bottega Veneta, along with Thanaerng Kanyawee Songmuang. The two attended the Bottega Veneta spring/summer 2025 show in Milan, Italy in September 2024.
