Ploynira Hiruntaveesin (Thai: พลอยนิรา หิรัญทวีศิลป์; born 29 October 1994), formerly Phatchara Tubthong (Thai: พัชรา ทับทอง), nicknamed Kapook (Thai: กระปุก), is a Thai actress. She is known for her roles on the television series F4 Thailand: Boys Over Flowers (2021), The Player (2021), The Trainee (2024), and Pluto (2024).[2][3]
Early life and education
Ploynira was born in Bangkok, Thailand as Phatchara Tubthong. She has an older sister named Patcharee Tubthong (Join), who is a former actress, and a younger brother.[2]
In October 2023, she revealed that she has changed her legal name to Ploynira Hiruntaveesin for almost 2 months. She explained: "I searched my old name on the web, and it was not accurate or good, so I asked to change it for peace of mind. After more than a month of changing it, I am very happy with my name. I like it a lot."[4]
Ploynira completed her secondary education at Prasarnmit Demonstration School, Srinakharinwirot University. Then, she went on to receive a bachelor's degree in marketing from Bangkok University.[5]
Career
In 2016, Ploynira made her acting debut with the television series Senior Secret Love: My Lil Boy where she played a supporting role of Orn. In that year, she reprised her role in Senior Secret Love: My Lil Boy 2.[6]
After appearing in several television series, she landed her first main role as Pan, co-starring with Tanont Chumroen in Love Songs Love Series: Sabai Sabai.[7]
Later, she signed with GMMTV.[1] In 2020, she portrayed Dujao in Angel Beside Me, Yogurt in My Bubble Tea, Music in Friend Zone 2: Dangerous Area,[8] Amp in Tonhon Chonlatee,[9] and Laweng in Khun Mae Mafia.
In F4 Thailand: Boys Over Flowers (2021), she played as Jane, the leader of a group of three girls who often bullies Gorya (Tontawan Tantivejakul), the female protagonist.[10] In the same year, she got the main role of Mim, one of the antagonists in The Player.[11] She later went on to play various roles in several television series.
In 2024, she played two sapphic roles as Judy in The Trainee[12] and as Pim in Pluto.[13] Both roles have an unfortunate relationship, which is with Ba-Mhee (Kanyarat Ruangrung) in The Trainee and with Pang (Rutricha Phapakithi) in Pluto.
