GL recommendations ♥

This is a list of ACTUAL sapphic romance with the main focus on the GL and not queerbaiting, not sismance,  not just minor lesbian character or side couple in the background. Also this is NOT a ranking, just a list of recs.

I won't spoil whether it's a happy or sad ending but I will give some of my opinions on them and why I recommend them. If you wanna avoid sad stories please look it up yourself.

  • Yes or No

    1. Yes or No

    Thai Movie - 2010

    8.5

    The fabulous, the iconic first Thai Lesbian Movie: Yes or No. 

    It is of relatively good quality for being the first GL movie of a country, the story is simple but cute and it has some good messages and gorgeous cinematography. 

    I also love that one of the main leads is a "Tomboy" aka butch girl because contrary to popular belief there isn't actually that much good butch lesbian representation even in the west. 

    Pie and Kim walked so others could run

  • GAP

    2. GAP

    Thai Drama - 2022, 12 episodes

    8.5

    Another iconic bitch, the first full length Thai GL SERIES ever: GAP 

    This is truly the mother of all GL series in Thailand and with the well-earned success of this series they caused a chain reaction that urged big companies and channels to release more GL series and push for more WLW representation in Thailand. The production, story and acting are pretty good and the hype is real

  • Ride or Die

    3. Ride or Die

    Japanese Movie - 2021

    7.5

    This japanese Netflix movie is very mature and has violent themes in it. It's not for everybody but I liked it and it is definitely ahead of LGBT rep in japanese mainstream media.

  • Yes or No 2.5

    4. Yes or No 2.5

    Thai Movie - 2015

    6.0

    I know there's also Yes or No 2 but since I didn't enjoy that I will only recommend Yes or No 2.5

    Although it features Tina Suppanad (Kim's Actress from Yes or No) this movie is NOT a continuation of Yes or No. It is a completely new story with new characters but still cute.

  • Touch

    5. Touch

    Chinese Movie - 2016

    8.0

    A very low budget but heartwarming movie you can find at Rela/The L Channel on Youtube.

  • The L Bang

    6. The L Bang

    Chinese Drama - 2016, 4 episodes

    A super short Webseries by Rela/The L Channel on Youtube. I haven't even finished this one yet and it's really funny already

  • Lucky My Love

    7. Lucky My Love

    Thai Drama - 2023, 5 episodes

    7.0

    So sweet but too short T_T

    The plot is whatever but if you just want a lighthearted short series with a cute couple, it won't hurt to watch. It's on Youtube as well.

  • She Makes My Heart Flutter

    8. She Makes My Heart Flutter

    Korean Drama - 2022, 5 episodes

    8.0

    Another short series on Youtube, this one was funny. I love the side characters especially

  • Blank

    9. Blank

    Thai Drama - 2024, 6 episodes

    8.0

    I enjoyed this one a lot more than I thought I would. Due to the controversial topics and misinformation about their age gap I too was hesitant to watch this at first. But then I gave it a try and it is really good actually. The age difference is not inherently problematic, in fact both of the actresses and their characters are of age

     Both Faye and Yoko are very talented actresses and the plot is quite unique especially for a GL. There is a lot of drama and (some) heavy topics most of which were executed well. Can't wait for Season 2

  • Blank Season 2

    10. Blank Season 2

    Thai Drama - 2024, 6 episodes

    8.0

    Part 2 of Blank.

    y'all...I know everyone and their mom has watched Blank atp and if you haven't yet, I actually really recommend it, it's dramatic af but good

    If you're still unsure they do adress the age gap and in my humble opinion it is handled pretty well. They show the characters' feelings about the age gap but they also show us why it doesn't matter that much in their specific case.

  • My Fairy Ghost

    11. My Fairy Ghost

    Japanese Drama - 2022, 4 episodes

    I watched this for the first time years ago and for some reason gave it a very low score....wth can you believe it

    After my recent rewatch of this I'm giving it a 10/10, literally comedy gold and cute af
