She is one of the well-known influencers and TikTok stars of the era, beloved by the new generation of youth for Pun Rakmaew also known as Pun Phanthita Boonchuan with large, charming eyes and a smile that captivates anyone who sees her. She was also the lead actress in the music video for “One O’Clock at the Moat” by illslick. Recently, she has been back in the spotlight online.
Regarding the background of Pun Rakmaew,
- Pun Rakmaew, also known as Pun Phanthita Boonchuan,
- She gained widespread recognition for starring as the lead actress in the music video for “One O’Clock at the Moat” by illslick, which has amassed nearly 120 million views.
- Before becoming an MV lead, Pun had numerous review jobs, worked as a clothing model, and served as a cosmetic brand presenter for popular youth brands.
- Pun Rakmaew graduated from Buriram Pittayakhom School in Buriram Province, in the SMTE class, and went on to study medicine at Khon Kaen University through the MD02 program for students with special academic and English skills in the Northeast region. This added to her acclaim, as she is not only charming and talented but also a proud high-achieving medical student.
- Pun has said that medicine was her childhood dream, inspired by her aunt and sister who work in healthcare. She saw the importance of helping patients and wanted to be part of this valuable profession.
- Pun Rakmaew’s first acting role was in the horror film “Term 4,” playing the character “Kaning” in the episode “Pink Room,” which tells the story of a seemingly cute but haunted cheap dormitory room. This role was a significant challenge for her as her first full acting role.
- In early June 2026, Pun Rakmaew’s name resurfaced on social media when she decided to temporarily "drop out" from the Faculty of Medicine at Khon Kaen University to fully focus on her entertainment and influencer career. She admitted this was not an easy decision and took much time to consider it, amid many questions and doubts from followers about balancing medical studies with influencer work.
- Subsequently, Pengpin, a close friend and fellow medical student who often filmed videos with Pun, posted an educational video advising against cosmetic lip tattooing, stating it is not a medical treatment.
- After that video went viral, some netizens connected it to Pun Rakmaew, suspecting it was a subtle jab, since Pun was recently involved in drama and had promoted a beauty clinic offering lip tattoo weight-loss programs. This led to comparisons between medical studies and reviewing clinics.
- The situation escalated when Pun’s close associates responded strongly. Her personal manager commented sharply: “Who are you talking about? Say it directly. Don’t act like you’re talking about someone else. Ridiculous.” Even her personal makeup artist joined in with spicy remarks: “Who wants to study, go ahead. Who wants to work, do it. Who wants to tattoo lips or anything, let them be.”
- Pengpin did not stay silent and posted a video clarifying the entire drama, apologizing for the incident, and firmly stating she had no intention to attack, refer to, or mock anyone. She explained that her message was to encourage people to focus on health, exercise, and nutritious diets, and apologized if anyone was affected by the controversy.
- Later, it was found that in illslick’s MV, Pun Rakmaew’s face was heavily blurred in the nearly 120 million-view video, almost completely obscuring her image. This fueled further online criticism, with some fans displeased and fiercely criticizing the rapper.
