Lots of GL dramas have some angst in them, although on average, they tend to lean more fluffy than angsty. In terms of "real life issues", I guess it depends on exactly what you mean by that, because pretty much every drama contains real life issues.

I'm going to recommend to you "ClairBell", which is (in my opinion) easily the best Thai GL drama to date. It's also pretty angsty.

When is say real life issues, I mean it tackles taboo subjects, disabilities, mental health issues, addictions. I hate fluffly romantic comedy dramas of all types really 

Sleep With Me does disability really well.

And yeah ClaireBell, definitely angsty and real. 

And I stand by Fragrance of the First Flower for being real, though not angsty.

Maybe Runaway would also work for you, it's angsty but not meant to be realistic. But other than that, Thai GL does heavily lean towards fluffy romcoms.

hey guys, i dunno if i can post this here, please let me know if i'm wrong to.  

As some of you may know I have been working on a site that I call Tella's GL Master List. i've put alot of time into it and i've decided recently that it needed a look/feel over haul. it's not done yet, almost there, it's taking a bit of time re-coding every page and changing some stuff while working full time but i wanted to put it out there now to see how ppl feel about the new design!

https://tellasgllist.neocities.org/Main here's the site. if the page is still blue in theme then it's the old layout that i'm currently working on switching over!

thanks everyone who takes time out of their day to look at my site and thank you to all who comment their thoughts on it; good or bad i'd love to know!

Blank - not very realistic but very angsty. Be warned that this has a large age gap involved. 

Transit girls- it's angsty but its also stepsisters 

They don't all fit both categories but I tried to find ones that were either very angsty or realistic. Hope you find something you like!

You definitely CAN post that here, as it is directly related to what this club is about - GL dramas. Having what is essentially an encyclopaedia of GL dramas is valuable, and I would definitely refer to it from time to time, but is seems like a hell of a lot of work to keep it up to date. Especially when you are also building the platform as well. Did you consider using some pre-existing platform so you could devote all of your energy to the content? I had a look through the website and I did find it a bit clunky to use. I also got error messages on some of the pages. Also, there were some tables where the headings didn't match the content in the column under that heading. I guess those issues will be fixed as you update it.

It is definitely alot of work! And the complete overhaul of it did not make it any easier lol. But i like where it's going now and knowing me I'll change something major again in a month or 2 lol. 

i was wondering if you could give me a few of those pages you're seeing errors. I trying to keep up with new errors i create by accident and sometimes it's just so many pages that i miss some of them.  If you wouldn't mind that is. I would appreciate it though please and thank you.  

though i know china, japan, south korea, and vietnam give errors atm, i got the other countries fully up and running yesterday but needed to sleep for work today! lol

This is really cute and looks like a lot of work, but I assume you simply love doing it.

Have you considered adding posters to the entries?

Thank you! 

Only thai letter A currently has a  posters when you click info,  also hover images on the actresses. I do plan to implement it onto all pages,  it just takes alot of time lol. 

And yes,  i love working on my site :D

Oh this is really cool! Some of the country tabs (Japan, China & South Korea) give me this error message: https://postimg.cc/mtCNmVS5

It's kinda funny/sad that most countries only have a few GL series and for Thailand it's so many that you have to sort them by actress lmao

Rak Overdose - this series is almost not on anyone's radar and hardly talked about. It seems like most GL fans are not even aware of its existence. It's based on a real-life couple and their struggle with drug addiction and their journey of recovery.

Wrath of Desire - a sapphic/LGBTQ-themed film. It's pretty dark as it touches on taboo and dark elements like BDSM, self-harm, cheating, grooming, and sex abuse.

Last I heard, there wasn't an English sub version of this drama. Has that now changed, or do you understand Thai?

I'm not sure if it's subbed now. I watched it raw. And yes, I understand Thai as I'm half-Thai.
