A Messy GL But Memorable One
The plot is overall good, but the side plots are left unsatisfied or incomplete. It also educates about the issues of LGTBQ+ couples in Thailand, advocates for marriage equality, and normalizes romantic relationships between women and women.The acting is cringey, but bearable.
The OSTs are enjoyable, though some of the songs’ styles are a bit outdated.
The cinematography is horrible, making it uncomfortable to watch with its weird angles.
Lastly, the production has good attitudes and intentions towards the series, but the overall quality has a cheap look to it.
My Opinions:
Although my rating for GAP is low, GAP is gold. It was the first series that open my world to GL series with better representation, compared to the one I had saw. It has unique charms to it that makes it addicting and fun to watch, despite its flaws, and it is an all time favorite of mine.
Also, one thing I love the most about this series is Freen and Becky’s chemistry that is overflowing out of the screen.

GL Representation
This series is a great starting series for anyone interested in GL. I'm glad we're finally getting more wlw relationships on screen. This story is quite a cliché but does it in a gay way ( which I love). There are several cute scenes within the show and the show can get very serious at certain times ( especially near the end of the series). This show definitely has a realistic undertone to it regarding things like how other people view wlw relationships and how older and more traditional people view LGBTQ+. I was satisfied with how it ended and how the whole show went. It may be cheesy and a bit predictable but representation is representation. We can only go up from here!Was this review helpful to you?
Loved For A Reason
Even though I'm late to the Thai GL fandom I started at the beginning. I can see how this kickstarted a whole craze for GL dramas because it really is amazing. The story telling can be a little inefficient (you could honestly cut like three episodes worth of content without sacrificing quality) and the arranged marriage drama that takes up much of the finale feels a little lost on me as a cultural outside. Those are literally the only complaints I have, though. I loved basically everything else about this show.Was this review helpful to you?

a good start for wlw series
although the couple's chemistry was nice, there was nothing really captivating or groundbreaking about the scenario. on the contrary, it was very cliche with the arrogant boss and hardworking employee plot. as episodes passed, I felt like it got more and more boring. the episodes with CherRisa were nice. i was also looking forward to seeing some TeeYuki scenes, but whatever we got is fine too lol. overall, the series was nothing special; however, i don't want to be too harsh on this series as it is the first Thai gl. I hope this series will pave the way for better and more gl series in the upcoming years!Was this review helpful to you?

Dragging! Poor acting! Overrated!
If you're looking for a (kind of) steamy GL with a boring plot, then this one's for you.This was my first GL and the experience was horrible. Sure, there was chemistry in the first few episodes until it flatlined. Their acting was bad, the story was dragging, and there were too many actors that didn't actually contribute much to the story. It was predictable and boring that I had to skip most parts.

must watch series 2023
what a great job and artwork! especially for Sarocha Freen & Rebecca Armstrong, they successfully portrayed the character to live. the beautiful storyline are able to tells the world that love is belong to everyone. no matter what gender, age gap and social status, love is love. and love could easily turn you to a better version of yourself. these actresses have a very strong chemistry that cannot be describe within a word, their capability of showing each other character emotion is something that we should appreciate the most. good job for the first GL series in thai IDF, looking forward for them (freenbecky) to another challenging project together. surely they turns everyone lives into pink! :)Was this review helpful to you?
Lighthearted content with attractive main leads
Admittedly I start watching this because the two leads are attractive and even from trailer alone they have palpable chemistry.However as I watch the series further, other aspects of the show such as ensemble/supporting cast, direction, music/sound, lighting were all actually really good.
In terms of story, it does play into the rather typical trope of mean boss - gullible intern quite a bit. Also the character Khun Sam is just frustrating and difficult to understand at time. But I guess that's also the attraction to this show, how to delve deeper into the character and symphatise or at least understand them more.
For acting, there's not any negatively jarring moments. But there are a few qualms I have about it. I feel Khun Sam could be less stoic, especially when she is trying to show 'love', sometimes her delivery when she's trying to profess love is a bit rough around the edges. For character Mon I also would like it more if her crying scenes to be less dramatised I guess. But in general these little gruntles doesn't take away from the enjoyment.
In general, a surprisngly nice find on Youtube with characters that are fun to watch and romance that is believable due to the good chemistry the 2 leads show.

GAP is freaking brilliant
After watch 8 episodes now and have time to reflect on the incredible work both leading actresses have done or are doing with this series and storyline I can only ask for a season 2 please. The storyline is just beautiful and each scene brilliantly put together and both Freen and Becky are just doing such beautiful work, their chemistry is unexplainable and so genuine that you can convey each emotion they are displaying in including in their results love scene that was just tastefully done… it only demonstrates that you don’t need nudity to show a beautiful couple making love for the first time. Just beautifully done. This duo has put GL on the map and I hope we are able to continue witnessing them as a couple going further in the future working on more GL stories.Was this review helpful to you?
Mediocre At Best
I was soooo looking forward to watching this because I've been wanting a good GL to watch and I had heard so much about it! Unfortunately, it was extremely mediocre. The entire plot was predictable, the characters were only sometimes likeable, and every conflict could have been resolved with a single conversation.This was not a queer story. Yes, it had queer women as the main characters, but this exact storyline could have been done as a straight or BL romance. I wished the writers and directors focused more on the relationship dynamic between the two women and less on silly arranged marriage plotlines.

Beautiful series with amazing chemistry ^^
finally it ended time files so fast because of GAP Saturday became most important day in this year P'Freen and Becky have amazing chemistry and cute story and idk why so many people saying it's messy but in my opinion it's good, in many asian countries we still facing the situation like Khun Sam where our family members don't understand us and force us but when you met the right person no one can't stop you and at first I thought Khun Sam is selfish but later I knowed about her grandmother control I understand her very well P'Freen slayed Khun Sam character like no one can play that character like P'Freen she is really untouchable and their chemistry I can't just tell in words their jealousy moments, cute moments, and some love moments everything is so beautiful they showed that love is a beautiful thing and many ppl telling Khun Sam's friends are annoying and unnecessary but because of them Sam and Mon got married because they always tell a way to solve their problems and misunderstanding and I'm really missing this drama so much 😭 I'm waiting for P'Freen and Becky future series as a couple and waiting for Idol Factory another GLs and thanks for all GAP Staff and Cast and Saint thanks for giving us such a precious series GAP is Best Series of The Year for me and P'Freen and Becky deserves Couple of The Year award 🥺❤️❤️Was this review helpful to you?
