"I've worked for 8 years but I don't feel that I'm that great in any of the area. I still have to keep learning. I even have to learn (certain aspects) from those who just joined the showbiz. I feel that life is about learning. We have to keep learning."
#Tawan_V & his journey with GMMTV (1/7)

- Tay was surprised that he got the Five Live Fresh host position because he wasn't so eloquent. But he later learned that it's because the show aimed to have MCs with various personalities and Tay's personality was interesting.
#Tawan_V & his journey with GMMTV (2/7)

- Five Live Fresh MC for 1-2 yrs until Bang Channel (cableTV ch ran by GMMTV) closed down. That time, YouTube started to become the trend. So GMMTV was adapting to the new waves; there used to only be singers/MCs & now everyone had to act.
#Tawan_V & his journey with GMMTV (3/7)

- Tay felt that he was constantly starting over. Learning to be a TV host, finally felt more settled after 2yrs & had to start from 0 w/ acting. As actor, he started attending events which required singing. So he had to learn how to sing.

- And eventually concerts. But he thinks it's fun to get to do everything. He said that he, #OffJumpol & #Newwiee are unique compared to new GMMTV stars because they get to do everything.
#Tawan_V & his journey with GMMTV (5/7)

- He says he's bonded with GMMTV because they have gone through a lot of transitions together. This made him become close to all the staff. It's been 8 yrs.
#Tawan_V & his journey with GMMTV (6/7)

- His first acting attempt was done without any prior acting lessons since GMMTV as a whole was learning as they dipped their feet into this new field. His first series was also GMMTV's first series.
#Tawan_V & his journey with GMMTV (7/7)

- Tay said he didn't know how to properly look (or not look) at the cameras for both acting/MCing. During MCing, he kept looking at P'Godji (producer) because she's his comfort zone.

"I think my work now is going rather well. But I now have to start finding a backup plan as I'm getting older. I want to do/invest in something that's mine. The benefits of this career is I get to meet a lot of people and learn many, many things."
#Tawan_V

- Tay said he didn't even tell his family when he went to audition for 5Live. He didn't tell them either when he passed the audition. His parents eventually found out from other people about 5Live but they never really talked about it together.
#Tawan_V

- One of the reasons Tay didn't want to tell his family because he grew up with his grandparents who are more into academia/not really interested in the entertainment industry line of work.
#Tawan_V

- Tay said his grandpa's a physicist. His grandpa didn't even get to hear about Tay becoming an actor because he got Alzheimer's disease. Tay said his grandpa would prefer that everyone achieve careers in academia like him.
#Tawan_V

- His grandpa used to tutor him in Chemistry and Physics prior to exams. His grandma always encouraged him to read since she's a writer.
#Tawan_V

- Tay said that his grandma wasn't certain about Tay being an actor but now whenever there are shows/series of his, she would turn on the TV early and wait. Now, she knows all of his friends. She loves talking to #GunAtthaphan. She says Gun is cute and modern.
#Tawan_V thanking fans
#Tawan_V

"When fans ask me for encouragements for exams, I would give them my support. It's not difficult to type it & it's worth more than just words to them. I know that well. When I see their typed encouragements as I work, I feel really cherished/glad too."
And at the end of the interview, #Tawan_V said "I see my fans all the time. I remember them. It feels as if they're long-time friends. We care about each other. We wish each other well. We support one another."

🥺🥺🥺
I obviously didn't translate everything and for some had to cut short because I wanted to fit them in just one tweet. Anyway, it's apparent that #Tawan_V got such a pure heart and has been working & continues to work hard no matter what's thrown at him. Tay best-est. 🥺🥺🥺
