Cherry Magic (Thai: Cherry Magic 30 ยังซิง; lit.'Cherry Magic 30 Still Single') is a 2023 Thai boys' love television series produced by GMMTV. The series is the Thai adaptation of Yuu Toyota's yaoi manga Cherry Magic!

Synopsis

[edit]

Achi (Thitipoom Techaapaikhun) is a worker at a stationery company, but one day he discovers an article stating that once you turn 30 and you are still a virgin, you will gain a special power. He soon figures out that he has gained a special power—the ability to read people's minds—but everything takes a turn once he reads the mind of Karan (Tawan Vihokratana), his most famous, handsome, and kind coworker having a crush on him! Knowing this, he tries his best to keep his distance.[5][1]
