Lakorns, LGBTQ+

Family politics lakorn whose plot is carried by strong women characters, brotherly love and a developing relationship between two men. Set in the 1950s, both sexism and cultural homophobia are key factors in the drama. Two people close to the main gay character accept and support him as he is throughout and the pacing of the lakorn between tension and safety is excellent.

Three wealthy lakorn-dysfunctional families + one found family of drag queens and their free spirit daughter who's known to bring home stray dogs. There is a stray dog, and puppies, but mostly they accumulate stray neighbours and others in need of kindness and acceptance. The romances are het, one is fluffy, one isn't. Gay, bi and trans characters.

Difficult subjects, gently, beautifully told.

Not a melodrama, though they do clearly use the word 'lakorn' in the content warning at the beginning so that's my excuse for including it besides holding it so dear. Gender fluid character, possibly bi.

Upcoming, not much information yet. The trailer feels lakorn. Relationship between women. I may be looking forward to it a bit much what with Orm Kornnaphat's taking no shit tomboy character in Matalada frequently reminding me that I'm not straight ;)

First ep - Falada's mum is pure lakorn.

Nothing I had read beforehand prepared me for this being a critique of toxic masculinity in several forms including homophobia - wrapped in laugh out loud comedy which continuously calls out bad behaviours - wrapped in lakorn.

That balance might exclude it from this list but those looking for LGBTQ+ -friendly lakorn are perhaps more likely to understand its complexity than those posting on its page.

Mini-lakorn with a gay romance. Perhaps too short to absorb all of the melodrama.
