Nadech Kugimiya (ณเดชน์ คูกิมิยะ), previously named Chonlathit Yodprathum (born December 17, 1991), is a Thai-Austrian actor and model.

Personal Life and Education[]
Nadech, birth name Chonlathit Yodprathum, was born on December 17, 1991 in Khon Kaen, Thailand. He is the adopted child of Sudarat Kugimiya, his biological aunt, and Yoshio Kugimiya. His biological mother is Thai while his biological father is Austrian. His nickname "Barry" has evolved from his original nickname "Brand." He graduated from Rangsit University with a bachelor's degree in communication arts, major in film and cinematography. He is currently completing his master's degree.
Nadech says he did not mean to deceive anyone when he misrepresented himself as half Japanese and half Thai. Declaring he was unworried by the resulting fuss, Nadech said that far from deceiving fans for his own sake, he really did it for his parents. "My foster father is Japanese. I told everyone I am half Thai, half Japanese to honor him," he said. He denied he felt stressed to be exposed as Thai-Austrian. "I meant to tell people, but the time had not yet arrived."

His manager is Suphachai Srivijit.
