On our set, which can be described as &ldquo;workplace gone wild&rdquo;, the actor talks about his upcoming projects, Enigma 2 and Scarlet Heart Thailand, and his serious love of gelato</p>

<p>We are back again with our annual September issue, which is our celebration issue to mark our 10th anniversary this year.</p>
<p>And who better to cast as our cover star than the global phenomenon and Thai superstar <a href="https://www.lofficielmalaysia.com/art/cast-of-gmmtv--remake-of-the-iconic-drama-scarlet-heart-ryeo-moon-lovers">Win Metawin</a>. Known and loved for his talent, visuals and impeccable style, Metawin shows us what it means to be "picture perfect" in our cover shoot where he flaunts the latest Prada ready-to-wear collection.</p>
<p>And for our cover interview, we caught up with the man himself where he shared with us his upcoming projects, his biggest achievements and his love for Italian gelato.</p>

<p><strong>L&rsquo;OFFICIEL: Hi Win! We last caught you in June at Prada&rsquo;s menswear show in Milan, followed by a Prada Beauty event in Kuala Lumpur. What else have you been busy with? </strong></p>
<p>WIN METAWIN: This year, I had the opportunity to travel to various countries for Prada shows and Prada beauty events. I always look forward to experiencing Prada&rsquo;s events and am equally delighted to meet fans wherever I go.</p>
<p><strong>LO: Audiences recently saw you in the film, Under Parallel Skies, and in the television series, Beauty Newbie. Looking back at these projects, what did you learn from them?</strong></p>
<p>WM: I&rsquo;ve learned a lot, including language skills. For Under Parallel Skies, I had to act entirely in English and work with talents from overseas. This experience taught me how international actors work professionally</p>

<p><strong>LO: Tell us about your upcoming television projects, Enigma 2 and Scarlet Heart Thailand. </strong></p>
<p>WM: We&rsquo;re about to start filming Enigma 2 soon this year, so please look forward to it. Scarlet Heart Thailand is another exciting and major project that I need to prepare a lot for.</p>
<p><strong>LO: Since entering the entertainment industry in 2019, you&rsquo;ve landed on Forbes 30 Under 30 Asia, won the AFA Rising Star Award at the 17th Asian Film Awards, and emerged as one of the Thai celebrities generating the highest Earned Media Value at fashion week. What are the achievements that you are proudest of? </strong></p>
<p>WM: I value and am proud of each achievement. They motivate and encourage me to keep pushing myself for greater improvement in the future.</p>
<p><strong>LO: Since you debuted to great success, the T-wave has really taken off. How do you feel about the incredible journey and the progress you&rsquo;ve made since day one?</strong></p>
<p>WM: This journey has flown by and everything&rsquo;s happened so fast that I need to quickly improve myself to keep up. Working with so many different people has also taught me a lot about empathy and the importance of connecting with others.</p>

<p><strong>LO: With the popularity of Thai talents and productions around the world now, would you say it&rsquo;s easier, more exciting or more stressful to work on a production? </strong></p>
<p>WM: It&rsquo;s more of excitement for me. Every new project brings new things for me to explore.</p>
<p><strong>LO: In recent months, you&rsquo;ve been travelling a lot, particularly with Prada for events including the brand&rsquo;s fashion week shows. What do you enjoy most about going for the shows, and is there something that you always need to do or eat while you&rsquo;re in Milan? </strong></p>
<p>WM: I always make it a point to grab some gelato, as there are so many great flavours and shops. I also enjoy experiencing the show &mdash; the runway, the setup, and the people are always exciting</p>

<p><strong>LO: In terms of music singles or soundtrack contributions, can your fans look forward to anything from you for the rest of the year? </strong></p>
<p>WM: This year, I&rsquo;m all about acting and won&rsquo;t be dropping any new music singles.</p>
<p><strong> LO: With your busy schedule, what&rsquo;s your idea of the perfect day off? </strong></p>
<p>WM: A day off with family.</p>
<p><strong>LO: It&rsquo;s the start of a new fashion season. What&rsquo;s one item you&rsquo;ve recently been unable to live without? </strong></p>
<p>WM: It is always a pair of Prada shoes.</p>
<p><strong>LO: What would you like to accomplish next? </strong></p>
<p>WM: I want to build my business and make it successful.</p>
