Pretty much everything in my watch list for 2025 had finished airing now, I have nothing but upcoming series to wait for. Some titles in my list are Thai GL Series. Thought maybe I could share it with you here.
Please keep in mind that I do not rank the titles. I pick them solely based on interesting premise and preview. I am familiar with some of the on-screen couples, and obviously I’m biased towards them because I enjoy their previous series.
Synopsis of the series is taken from MyDramaList.com {alertInfo}
So let’s start listing!

Clairebell (TBA - 2025)
Bell Lalita is arrested on charges of drug possession. Though they aren't hers, with the evidence against her, her lawyer tells her she stands no chance of winning the case if were they to fight it. Left with no choice, she steps into prison with a sentence of fifteen months.
Life in prison isn't as peaceful as she's hoped. She becomes targeted by a powerful group within the place. Even the warden turns a blind eye to their actions. She has no other choice; her last hope of survival lies with Claire Nineteen Scars, an inmate locked up for a serious crime who no one dares get close to.
Whale Store XOXO (TBA - 2025)
Wan suddenly inherits her father's grocery store, crumbling away during hard times. She soon meets hardworking and flirtatious store regular Maewnam. Maewnam is supportive of Wan's efforts to turn the business around, but she's hiding the truth about her family's business which threatens Wan's plans.
Girl Rules (TBA - 2025)
A friend group descends into chaos as their bonds are tested in a variety of ways, beginning with the return of an ex-girlfriend. There is not much to be known about this upcoming series by GMMTV. They say that this is an original story, not based on any novels nor webtoon. Personally I feel so excited to see NamtanFilm and MilkLove play in one series.
Only You (TBA)
The second series of LingOrm that were announced last year, 2024, right after their success with The Secret Of Us. Same as Girls Rules, this series, Only You is also not based on any novels nor webtoon, it’s completely original, and I wonder how it going to turn out. Unfortunately, it is not clear if this series is going to come out this year or maybe later than fans expected.
Four Elements (TBA - 2025)
A big project from IDOL FACTORY, adapting 4 novels about 4 different couples; Air, Water, Earth and Fire. This project also features two of the most familiar couples in Thai GL, FreenBecky and EngfaCharlotte.

The Earth is about a farmer who likes solitude who must help a woman from a neighboring farm who has a bunch of problems.
The Water is about a very work-minded executive and heir to a line of hotels who is all about work who must work with a new receptionist that causes a bunch of issues for her. A love game full of tricks and what not ensues.
The Air is about a police lieutenant who is sent to protect a princess in danger. Rebels bring an impersonator to overthrow the throne while they hunt her down.
The Fire is about a wealthy heir and her childhood rival that can't stand each other.
This is the largest Thai GL series project I’ve known. I think it will be good. It’s been the talk in the community, and they even hide the pairings at first. But we will see for sure how good is this series when it finally comes out.
Notable Mention
Alright, there is one series that I’m looking forward to watching, but it won’t come out this year. It still worth mentioning, and I really wish they do not blow this up. It’s called CRANIUM, starring Freen and Becky;
As two of the very few biological anthropologists in the country, a catastrophic plane crash forces two doctors and former university rivals Bussaya and Phinya to work together. While identifying victims, the discovery of an unexpected skull adds a new layer of mystery to the investigation. At some point during their work, a shift in their typically adversarial relationship occurs.
I love science-fiction, crime/thriller, and detective mystery. The preview seems promising, but I have a really low expectation knowing who produce this series is IDOL FACTORY. Previous Thai GL series who succeed at adopting my favorite theme so far is only REVERSE WITH ME. But it was not as successful depicting the romantic development. So, I really hope they don’t blow this up.
That’s all in my list. Which series are you waiting for this year? Do you have any recommendations for me?
