Nat LYKN Graduates with Nano Engineering Degree from Chulalongkorn
Nat LYKN, member of the Thai idol group LYKN, has graduated with a bachelor's degree in Nano Engineering from Chulalongkorn University. He revealed that juggling studies and his entertainment career led to burnout, but support from friends, family, and fans helped him persevere. Now he plans to focus more on his work and explore new opportunities.
In the interview, Nat explained that his degree took five years because he dropped a year to focus on work, with an additional pause during his second year due to COVID-19 before returning when he debuted with LYKN. He described the first years as especially tough, as engineering is inherently difficult and he had to study during his free time, sometimes reading between makeup and hair sessions. He recalled feeling unmotivated and telling his family he wanted to focus solely on being an idol, but his parents urged him to finish, reminding him he had already invested two years and exam fees. Friends in the industry helped him mentally, giving him space to study when needed and sharing notes. His family expressed happiness, noting his moderate academic strengths and joking about a future master's in idol studies, though he now wants to gain more knowledge in finance and management. Nat said he rarely cries, feeling happiness instead, and is proud of himself for not giving up. He hopes to give his diploma to his parents as a token of gratitude.
