\n\t\u201cI\u2019ve loved singing since I was a child, but I only realized I could sing when I grew up, around 19-20,\u201d NuNew told Billboard<\/em> backstage at the 2026 TMElive International Music Awards, speaking in Thai via a translator. \u201cOnce I started covering songs and people liked my voice, I felt, \u2018This is fun, I\u2019m so happy,\u2019\u201d said the Thai talent, who began work as a professional actor before his music career kicked off in earnest. \u201cThat became the starting point for wanting to release my own songs.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tAfter wowing Hong Kong\u2019s Kai Tak Stadium with his voice on songs like \u201cHeartquake\u201d and his ineffable stage presence, NuNew sat down to chat with Billboard<\/em> about his multi-faceted career. When asked which is more nerve-racking \u2013 singing or acting \u2013 he replied \u201cboth\u201d with a laugh. \u201cWith acting, you can ask for a new take, and it will gradually get better. But with singing live, it can only be done once. If you make a mistake, that\u2019s it, which is exciting in a different way,\u201d mused the Cutie Pie<\/em> star.<\/p>\n
\n\tNuNew also shared how \u201cKata,\u201d his duet with Thai singer-songwriter Bowkylion, came out. \u201cWe had a project together. She brought it out, feeling it suited me so well, and gave it to us. When I first heard it, it was so beautiful. It\u2019s a sad song that carries pain,\u201d he said. \u201cIf you read the lyrics the meaning is quite painful \u2014 seeing right before your eyes that the person you love is in love with someone else. But because you love them, you allow them to deceive you just so you can continue to be with them.\u201d<\/p>\n
\n\tSad though \u201cKata\u201d may be, NuNew says Bowkylion \u201carranged the music\u201d in order to \u201cgive it more brightness\u201d and a bit of a \u201cpositive element.\u201d<\/p>\n
