"Noon" Daran Boonyasak, born Sinitha Boonyasak in Bangkok, Thailand, is an actor, Thai cooking teacher, and the older sister of actress Ploy Chermarn Boonyasak. In 2001, she decided to take an acting/directing course at Srinakharinwirot University in Bangkok. It was there that she learned how to act without over-acting like she had been doing in her previous 20-odd soap opera roles. She spent some time as a television host and was taking a Thai cooking class when she was approached by Pen-Ek Ratanaruang for the role of Noi in "Last Life in the Universe" (เรื่องรัก น้อยนิด มหาศาล), a role which kept her from quitting the film business altogether and for which she won the Best Actress award at both the 12th Bangkok Critics Assembly and the Starpics Thai Film Awards 2546.
