His first notable on-screen credit came in 2022 with the series Between Us, a BL drama that introduced him to the genre's dedicated fanbase. This role marked his official debut in the Thai entertainment industry and set the stage for his future success.

Before gaining widespread recognition, Santa participated in the survival show Fantasy, a competition that would prove pivotal in his career.

Santa Pongsapak stands as the 37th most famous person in Thai Drama, a placement that reflects his steady ascent within the industry. This standing is part of the iFANN Global Fame Rankings, which track global attention across media coverage, search, and consumption signals worldwide. The actor holds this specific spot with stability, maintaining his position from the previous cycle without fluctuation. While he commands significant attention in the BL drama sphere, his fanbase does not operate under a formal, documented name like those seen in established K-pop groups. Instead, his supporters are woven into the broader culture of Thai entertainment enthusiasts who follow his work with JASP.ER and his solo projects. There are no records of organized fan campaigns, chart pushes, or specific rituals unique to Santa alone, distinguishing his support structure from highly militarized fandoms. However, the community remains deeply engaged, particularly in Thailand and internationally where his dramas have found a wide audience. His presence on social media draws millions, yet the lack of an official moniker suggests a fanbase that identifies more through shared appreciation of his roles than through a singular collective identity. The group dynamic of JASP.ER also lacks a distinct fandom name, keeping the focus on the members' individual performances and their collaborative music releases.[edit]
