23.5 (2024)

Uma obra de arte

Quando comecei não tava dando muita bola, mas todo o elenco faz você se apaixonar super rápido, ce sente até como se estivesse lá com eles. O gl é super fofo, ótimo pra quem gosta de algo mais leve, clichê, mas sem muito exagero, faz você querer que os dias passem mais rápidos só pra ver o próximo episódio. E o final me agradou bastante. Recomendo com certeza.

cute and fun !!

i saw a tiktok back in february about this drama and i watched each episode as it came out, and needless to say i loved almost everything about it, especially its astronomy theme. because 23.5 was the first thai drama i've watched, it's what got me into tdramas in the first place. as a lesbian, i'm almost uninterested in most bl/straight romance, and good gl is something i've always struggled to find until i got introduced to the glorious world of thai gl

i found ongsa and aylin to be very relatable characters, and view's acting was absolutely phenomenal. although some of their qualities made me a bit impatient, i see a lot of myself in both of them, which just made me feel so emotional whenever i saw them cry. seeing characters that struggle with social situations in similar ways that i do, yet still find people that care about them made me feel so happy. the entire message of aylin's character was so meaningful as well

something else i really liked about the show was the way the couples were written. sun and ongsa were very cute, obviously since they're played by milklove, and i think their relationship was portrayed in a realistic way. the earth plotline was wrapped up well and didn't drag on for an unnecessary amount of time, which isn't something i can say about some other thai gl's ive watched. aylinluna, although a side couple, was my favorite ship in the entire show. i love viewjune and their chemistry so so much and i hope they'll get a series together in the future.

the only thing i didn't like was that some scenes felt awkward or like they were being dragged on for too long, and i found myself getting bored sometimes. nevertheless this is still a great gl and i don't regret watching it one bit !!

Adorable Start to GMMTV's GL Journey

I can still remember the day GMMTV announced that MilkLove were getting their own GL. I wasn't watching it live (different timezones, I ended up waking up a little too late, RIP) but pressing play on the 23.5 pilot trailer and seeing Love bump into Milk into made me feel like I was going insane!! Two years later, we finally have the full 23.5 series and it's honestly as great as I imagined it would be. It was light and fluffy, the pacing was stellar, and the acting was on top. The Earth plot-line was well written for the first half of the show and OngsaSun's relationship was super cute for the middle of the show. I do have a bit of qualms with the later part of the show with the whole family dinner situation and the fallout of that, but I kind of expected that as this isn't my first GMMTV show (they have a pattern). The stand outs of the show for me were Ongsa and Aylin, they were super dorky and lovable while still being flawed and young and human (or alien!). All in all, it hurts a little bit to see such a negative reception of this show on this site, seeing as it was very clear from the beginning the tone this show wanted to go for, but to each their own I guess. 23.5, you will always have a special place in my heart.

Masterpiece made by women and for women.

I want to start by saying that I’m so happy that lesbians and wlw in general finally have something that was entirely made for us and is incredibly good quality in every aspect.
When I see someone saying that the tropes and dynamics are ‘cliché’ I just wonder if they have consumed any sapphic media before, because yes, they might be cliché but ONLY in heterosexual/mlm media. Also, Milk, Love and the rest of the cast are talented actresses, meaning they give their own touch to the story, so please abandon that prejudice.
It makes me emotional to think how impactful it will be for young queer girls to see that it’s normal to have a crush, regardless of the gender of the person.
Seems like this series will also deal with topics like changes/adapting to a new environment, comphet, mental health like self esteem and expectations and a lot of things that people experience not only during high school but also every day of our lives. Just in the first episode they addressed bullying and the importance of never contributing and leaving on their own a person who’s being harassed.
Details like the osts being sung by sapphic artists, openly queer cast and crew members, and the sexualities being addressed and confirmed since the beginning (in the intro) just prove that it’s so easy to give sapphics the same things straight people have always had. The team behind this series did an amazing work and this will definitely mark a new era for gls and lesbian media in general.
