Gun Atthaphan's full name is Gun Atthaphan Phunsawat, born in 1993, is one of the most famous actors in the Thai boylove film genre. He joined the entertainment industry at a young age and soon showed his talent when he won second place in the final round of The Boy Model contest.

The journey from talented child actor to Thailand's top boylove star

Continuing his success, Gun Atthaphan attended a casting at Lad Lum Kaew Film Studio and "fell in love" with acting. In 2004, he had his first leading role in the film "Goming", and was recognized as one of the most promising child actors in Thai cinema.

In 2009, Gun Atthaphan continued to assert himself through the role of Nut in the horror film "Slice (The Punisher)". Although only appearing briefly, Gun's realistic acting conquered the audience and experts, helping him win the Best Supporting Actor award at the 7th Chalerm Thai Awards when he was only 11 years old.

Gun Atthaphan's talent quickly caught the eye of Suam Sukhaphat - a veteran actor who worked with him in "OT The Movie". Suam introduced Gun to director Anucha Boonyawatana, paving the way for him to enter the boylove film genre.

In 2015, Gun Atthaphan shone in two movies "The Blue Hour" and "Love Love You". In particular, his role in "The Blue Hour" brought Gun a nomination for Best Actor at the Film Directors Guild of Thailand Awards and the Suphannahong National Film Awards, and helped him win the Performance of the Year award at the 2015 Bioscope Awards.

Since then, Gun Atthaphan has become a familiar face in the boylove film genre thanks to his petite figure and sweet, delicate face. In 2016, he signed a contract with GMMTV, and became a star thanks to his role as Rome in "Senior Secret Love: Puppy Honey" and its sequel.

The perfect combination of Gun Atthaphan and Off Jumpol Adulkittiporn created the "OffGun" couple that is loved by many audiences. After that, the two participated in many famous film projects such as "Theory of Love" (2019) and "Not Me" (2021-2022).

Controversial Kiss with Tay Tawan

On the evening of May 10, 2024, fans of two famous Thai boylove couples, OffGun (Off Jumpol - Gun Atthaphan) and TayNew (Tay Tawan - New Thitipoom), were "stirred up" when all four artists appeared in a livestream.

The excitement reached its peak when New suddenly turned around and "caught" the moment Gun was kissing Tay. After that, although New quickly turned the camera to another direction, this moment was still "caught" by fans and immediately caused a stir on Asian social networks.

Many people were surprised, even confused, and thought that this kiss could affect the relationship of the two famous couples: "Shocking, panicking, so surprised"; "Really shocking"; "The room collapsed so quickly"; "Two ships are broken, oh my god"...

Notably, after making social networks "shake" with the unexpected kiss on livestream, Tay Tawan immediately shared on his personal page. The handsome man said: "We are both 30 years old, we are very good friends and we promise to be true to ourselves, instead of becoming what people want."

Besides, Tay Tawan also confirmed the close friendship of the 4 people: "In the end, we all love each other and are very close to each other. We are a happy and cheerful group, not a drama group." Although Tay has spoken up to explain, public opinion still continues to discuss the incident.

On the evening of May 11, Tay Tawan and New Thitipoom continued to talk about the controversial kiss in the previous livestream. They affirmed that all four of them - including OffGun - have been close friends for more than 10 years. The kiss was just a joke between longtime friends.

Tay and New also shared that their friendship is still very good and has not been affected by this incident. At the same time, they hope that fans will not be too harsh, toxic and have a more open view of the "flash" kiss on livestream.

After the explanation of Tay Tawan and New Thitipoom, some fans felt relieved and believed more in the friendship of the two boylove couples. However, others thought that the above explanation was not clear and definitive enough.

Many netizens even felt confused when the person who initiated the kiss, Gun Atthaphan, did not say anything: "Huh, there were 2 people and only one person said anything?"; "Why is the person who initiated the kiss so silent?"; "Still a bit hesitant about the explanation but hope everything is okay"; "I don't know what to say anymore"...

Off Jumpol (born in 1991) is under the same entertainment company as Gun Atthaphan, GMMTV. After the success of the boylove blockbuster Theory Of Love, their names quickly gained attention and became one of the most famous boylove couples in the land of golden temples. Notably, OffGun was also voted "Most Favorite Couple" at the Line TV Awards for 2 consecutive years.

Meanwhile, Tay Tawan was born in 1991, 2 years older than New Thitipoom and both of them also work under GMMTV like OffGun. Their names are well-known and enthusiastically paired after appearing together in the famous project "Dark Blue Kiss".
