Excellent

Queendom is one of those Thai GLs that sneaks up on you — a premise that sounds chaotic on paper somehow turns into one of the most heartfelt, sexy, and surprisingly grounded romances of the year. What could have easily been pure camp ends up becoming a clever exploration of love, identity, and the ways we learn to see ourselves through someone else’s eyes.

From the start, Queendom stands out for its polish and energy. The production is sleek, the pacing sharp, and the tone perfectly balanced between fun and emotionally resonant. Print and Rey’s chemistry anchors the show — equal parts flirty, sincere, and vulnerable. Their dynamic feels lived-in, growing naturally from confusion to connection. Even during the wildest moments, there’s emotional logic behind every choice, which is something many GLs struggle to achieve.

The series also owes a lot of its strength to Mai and Fon, the standout side pairing who bring both warmth and levity to the story. Their relationship isn’t just cute filler — it adds real texture to the show. They balance out the chaos of Print and Rey beautifully, grounding the drama bringing and grounded more experience presence even though most of the time Print and Rey were a little more mature in their relationship. Honestly, id love to see them have their own series.

One of Queendom’s biggest wins is how it handles intimacy. The romantic and physical moments feel earned, not gratuitous. The chemistry between the leads burns slow but sure, and when the show finally leans into it, it does so with confidence and taste. It’s sexy without being overdone — emotional without being heavy-handed.

That’s not to say everything is perfect. The final stretch of the series, particularly Episode 11, felt rushed — the reconciliation between Print and her mother happens off-screen, suddenly all is forgiven… but did she even apologize? Still, by that point, *Queendom* had already earned the audience’s trust. The emotional throughline and character work carried enough weight to make those bumps forgivable.

What makes Queendom shine is its maturity. It’s playful, funny, and occasionally ridiculous, but it never loses its emotional grounding. The dialogue has purpose, every scene feels intentional, and the characters show real growth. There’s an adultness to the way it handles love and forgiveness — a sense that these characters have lived, made mistakes, and are learning to move forward.

Verdict: Queendom is bold, heartfelt, and endlessly watchable — the perfect blend of rom-com charm and emotional depth. With standout acting, purposeful intimacy, and one of the best side pairings in Thai GL, it proves that you can be funny, sexy, and sincere all at once. A top-tier GL that earns every bit of its crown. 👑
