Like Denied Love, Us is a 2025 GL offering from Thailand. The story follows Pam, a dental student, and Dokrak, a young woman estranged from her family and struggling to support herself so that she can live independently. The attraction between the two is apparent in the first episode and the directly gives the story time to develop their relationship organically. The standout feature of Us is the mutual trust and respect of the lovers, their support and patience with each other, and the avoidance of contrived conflicts - there are conflicts, of course, owing to family relationships, circumstances beyond the control of the lead characters. There's a lot of character development all around for both the main leads, the second couple, and strong supporting characters.
