Chimon began acting at six with a minor role in the Film 13 Beloved (2006). His official debut came in 2015 with Ghost Ship (guest role) and Sweet Boy (2016), in which he played Nack, his first leading role. Signing with GMMTV in 2016, he gained prominence as Toy in Senior Secret Love: My Lil Boy 2 (2016) and Sun in My Dear Loser: Edge of 17 (2017).

His breakout roles include Wave in The Gifted (2018) and The Gifted: Graduation (2020), Andrew in Blacklist (2019), and Sailom in Dangerous Romance (2023), showcasing his versatility in action, drama, and BL genres.

He played supporting roles like Prince in He’s Coming to Me (2019), Dan/Danai in The Player (2021), and Ben in Never Let Me Go (2022).
