Gawin Caskey, known as Fluke, turned 28 on August 8. He is known for roles in Dark Blue Kiss, Not Me, Be My Favourite, and My Golden Blood. He holds Thai-American roots and earned a degree in Business Management from Assumption University in Bangkok.
Fans marked his birthday with online projects. From August 8 to 14, they shared photo frames tagged #GAWINBD2025 and #Gawin28thBday on Instagram and X. One fan group created a “28th CATSKEYs Diner” theme. Friends joined in, sending video greetings with “Happy Birthday Baby G!” during GMMTV Fan Day 23 promotions in Manila. There was no formal birthday event from Gawin or GMMTV, but he posted online to thank his supporters.
Gawin’s most recent work is My Golden Blood, where he played Tong opposite Joss Way-ar. The series ran from March 12 to May 28, 2025, on GMM 25, with streams on GagaOOLala, iQIYI, and GMMTV’s YouTube channel. He sang the OST “Closer,” which many fans called a standout part of the series.
In an interview with Earmilk, Gawin said the series explores a choice between immortality without emotions and a mortal life full of real feelings. He explained that working with Joss improved his own approach to acting, making him more confident and curious about his craft.
“There’s just something about him that shines no matter what character he’s portraying. Keep shining that light, Gawin.”
“Depends on MGB and OF: Dream On… the potential is definitely there.”
“Happy Birthday Gawin! Your work inspires me every day. Can’t wait to see your next project.”
“Wishing you success and happiness always. Thank you for giving us characters to love.”
“Hope you enjoyed your day, Gawin! You deserve all the love you get.”
Gawin and Joss have also been active at fan events. In May, they attended a Thailand gathering that drew thousands. They will appear together at GMMTV Fan Day 23 in Manila on August 24, greeting fans with “Manila, kumusta kayo?” Ticket prices range from Php 2,500 to Php 14,950.
Looking ahead, Gawin is set to star in Hide & Sis in 2025, playing the role of Khem. The romantic thriller will air on GMM 25 and stream on Viu. He is also confirmed for Only Friends: Dream On, which is in development.
When asked about his future projects, Gawin said:
“I want to keep challenging myself. I hope to work on stories that connect with people and show different sides of me as an actor.”
