The media has a big role in influencing the presence of mass media. In this regard, the virality of the GAP: The Series series is an interesting phenomenon to research. GAP The Series is the first Thai Girls Lover series that has managed to attract the attention of several countries including Indonesia. In this study, we look at how virality culture and media are interrelated, which of course affects the perception of Indonesian society, both for those who initially do not know and those who are already in the community, then become likes and form a fandom. Through a qualitative approach, the researcher analyzed media content and saw that there were indicators of changes in perception in general, the involvement of marginalized groups in particular, and solidarity among lesbian fandoms in the special segmentation of GAP The Series. The findings show that this media not only influences people's views but also plays an important role in strengthening the identity and solidarity of the group.
