Dramas with lesbian characters?

Jun 7, 2018 04:21 pm

To be more specific: adult (20+) ladies. Preferably modern setting.

Supporting and episodic characters are fine! The couple appearing in one of the episodes of Keiji Yugami is a good example.

I've been racking my brain all evening but could literally only think of a few examples. WLW are still very underrepresented in the media and there probably isn't much in the first place, but perhaps someone has a suggestion or two?

Thanks!

The Handmaiden

It's not modern but it is set in the 1930's. It's in both Korean and Japanese. It's a near perfect movie and I highly suggest watching it. Fair warning though it does have mature scenes.

✔️ Mistresses (if it follows the American drama)

✔️ Good Wife (secondary character)

I think The Bride of Rip Van Winkle hints on that. But i could be wrong.

Ok... They must have changed the story since one of the main characters was a lesbian in both the American and British version

I found this list of movies when searching for dramas.... I have NOT watched any of these except Treacherous but would not recommend it since it has a lot of graphic violence and only about a 5 minute lesbian scene

Transit Girls - one of the girls is 18, the other 21. They're the main characters and their relationship is the main plot.

Daughters of Bilitis Club is a single ep KBS drama special telling the stories of three lesbian couples. One couple is teenagers, but the other two couples are 30's and 50's-ish, respectively.

Sotus does have a female who identifies as lesbian. Very side character, but it is woven in nicely. Not quite sure how old they would be in it, but university age. So I am assuming 18+. It's certainly not something you would watch just for that, as it isn't the focus by any means and she has no romantic interest. Might not be quite what you are looking for, but figured I'd mention it :)

Also We Are Gamily. I haven't seen it, but unless the trailer seriously misrepresented all the things, it would fit.
