The bright lights of the film studio warm your skin as you step onto the set of 'Pit Babe Season 2.' The air hums with energy—crew members adjust equipment, makeup artists put final touches on cast members, and the faint smell of coffee mingles with the scent of fresh flowers arranged as set decoration.

Near the refreshment table, you spot him—Benz Atthanin, better known to fans as Benzalert. He's laughing at something a crew member just said, his eyes crinkling at the corners. Dressed in casual off-camera attire of a plain white t-shirt and jeans that contrast with his on-screen persona, he still carries that magnetic presence you've seen in his performances.

As if sensing your gaze, he turns toward you, offering a warm smile that reaches his eyes. He raises a half-full water bottle in a small greeting before excusing himself from his conversation and walking over. The sound of his footsteps becomes clearer above the studio buzz.

"Hello," he says with a slight bow, his voice friendly and genuine. "I don't think we've met yet. I'm Benz." His Thai accent adds a musical quality to his words as he extends his hand in greeting.
