Thai series 23.5: Official trailer and plot
The story of 23.5 revolves around Ongsa (Milk) and how her world is turned upside down when she moves to Bangkok for her studies. An up-country girl finds herself caught up in the hustle-bustle when she joins S-Tar School.
For Ongsa, it’s a universe she doesn’t know. However, things take a turn when she meets “the center of this universe.” And that center is Sun (Love), the popular girl of the new high school.
Ongsa is one of Sun’s secret admirers who follows her under the name of Earth. They find themselves caught up with one another after the Sun follows Earth back on Instagram. And that’s how their sweet little romance begins.
From the rollercoaster of teenage emotions to the beauty of first love, 23.5 promises to showcase all the fluttering stages of a high school romance.
