THAI GL REVIEW: 🎓 Top 10 Thai GL School & University Series You Need to Watch (Rated by Cuteness, Chemistry & Emotional Damage)

Thai GL isn’t just slow burns and office chaos — we also get heart‑fluttering school romances and wholesome university love stories that make your heart do gymnastics. Whether it’s first love, secret exchanges, or classroom chemistry, these shows hit different. 🥺

10. Hormones: Season 2 and 3 (Dao + Koi) - Sananthachat Thanapatpisal (Fon) and Kemisara Paladesh (Belle) #FonBelle

(aka the duo that made us question our high‑school memories and emotional stability, and one of the OG Thai GL Ships)

Hormones: The Series isn’t your typical Thai GL, it is actually not a full on GL Series—but season 2 gives us Dao & Koi — two characters whose story punches you softly in the heart while you’re trying to pretend you’re “just watching casually.” Dao is played by actress Sananthachat Thanapatpisal (Fon) and Koi is played by Kemisara Paladesh (Belle).

In case you didn't know: One of the main characters in Hormones named Sprite was played by Supassra Thanachat (Kao) of Love Design, a Thai GL Series about architects who are in a relationship, architects stealing other architects' designs, exes who are both architects, second couple who are also architects, basically they are all architects in the series.

Why watch this series (or DaoKao's parts): It’s not flashy romance — it’s slow, meaningful connection. You rewatch scenes just to catch what you missed emotionally (specially that scene in the shower 😉)

9. Bad Buddy : Ink + Pa - Milk Pansa and Love Pattranite Limpatiyakorn #MilkLove

The series that introduced MilkLove to the whole Thai GL world. Like Hormones, Bad Buddy is not  entirely a GL series but it gave us InkPa. Milk plays Ink, who are friends with Pat (a boy) who has a crush on her. Love plays Pa, Pat’s younger sister who also has a crush on Ink. 

MilkLove’s chemistry was so well-received that GMMTV soon casted them as lead roles in other projects: 23.5 (2024) and Whale Store XOXO (2025).

Why watch this series (or InkPa's parts): Their undeniable chemistry.

7. Only You - Lingling Kwong (Sirilak Kwong) and Orm (Kornnaphat Sethratanapong) #LingOrm

Okay, this time both Ayla (Kornnaphat Sethratanapong) and Tawan (Lingling Kwong), are schoolmates even if it's during the first episode only. So, this still counts right? Whatever, let's just say I'm right. 😆

Ayla and Tawan became friends, then something else, but Tawan's visa was soon expiring so she needed to leave the country which broke Ayla's heart (im just kidding about the Tawan's visa, but she did left Thailand). Eight years later, Ayla's a superstar and Tawan is a superstar's bodyguard.

Why watch this series? : It's LingOrm. 😁
