Affair Synopsis: a love marked by time
The plot follows Pleng and Wan, two young women who grew up together in the same house, but in completely opposite social positions. Pleng was the daughter of the wealthy family, while Wan was the maid's daughter.
Despite their differences, the two developed a deep bond that, over time, evolved into a more complex feeling. However, before this love could be lived, a tragedy changes everything: Pleng's family faces bankruptcy, her parents die, and she suddenly disappears.
Years later, fate brings about a reunion. Wan is now a successful doctor and is married, living a stable life. Pleng, meanwhile, returns marked by the past and guilt.
What seemed resolved resurfaces with force. The two end up getting involved in a forbidden relationship, putting values, promises, and their own emotional stability at stake. The plot explores the impact of these choices intensely and without romanticization.

Where to watch Affair in Brazil
Currently, Affair can be watched officially on two main platforms:
iQIYI
iQIYI is the main home of the drama. The platform offers a wide library of Asian productions and has been growing in Brazil with a focus on this audience. On iQIYI, you can watch the complete version of the series, usually with better image quality and organized episodes.

What makes Affair different in the GL genre
The GL genre is usually associated with lighter or idealized stories. Affair, however, takes a different path. The series bets on themes such as infidelity, emotional guilt, social class differences, repressed desire, and real consequences of choices.
This more mature approach brings the narrative closer to psychological drama, elevating the genre's level.
Relationship with other GL doramas
Affair is part of a larger narrative universe that includes productions such as GAP The Series and Blank The Series. These works share the same literary origin and helped consolidate Thailand as one of the world's main centers for GL content production.
