One of the supporting cast members caught viewers’ attention due to his resemblance to another celebrity, GOT7‘s Jackson Wang.
In the Ready, Set, Love competition, five men are competing for the women’s attention. One of these men is Max, played by P-U Phuriphat Jiramethapon.
Max has an affinity for removing his shirt or jacket to reveal his muscular physique. While he might appear to be a playboy, he’s actually sweet and loyal.
Does this remind you of anyone?
As the drama is gaining popularity, fan edits are circulating across social media, including ones of Max. The one below has gone viral with 275.4K views at the time of writing.

Netizens agree that Max and Jackson Wang could be twins! Some confessed they initially thought Max was Jackson. Considering Jackson is currently a producer and mentor on the Thai survival show CHUANG ASIA Thailand, it wouldn’t have seemed too unbelievable if it was him!
From the hair color to sunglasses to the suits sans shirt, there are so many similarities between the two. Most netizens believe that P-U’s styling as Max must have been inspired by Jackson. Yet, looking at his Instagram account, you can see P-U often has this aesthetic.
And, like his character, P-U is always one to show off his abs!
In addition to acting, P-U is also a DJ and radio host. He’s so multi-talented!
P-U has appeared in only a couple of Thai dramas so far, including Ready, Set, Love and Angkhan Khlumpong The Series.
