Episode 7 of 23.5 begins with Ongsa and Sun bumping into each other at school. The two feel shy and awkward after they previously agreed to get to know each other. Later, Sun gushes and tells Ongsa she’s too cute after the latter doesn’t face the former as she blushes. While sitting next to each other, Ongsa texts Sun and says she will try to be more relaxed and open in person as she is online.
Sun then takes Ongsa’s phone and asks for her password. The former realizes they share the same passcode, which is Sun’s birthday. Upon opening the phone, Sun is sweetly surprised as Ongsa’s phone background is the former’s selfie. Sun asks Ongsa how much the latter likes her. Ongsa says a lot. However, she doesn’t want Sun to feel uncomfortable. Sun, too, says she doesn’t want Ongsa to feel uneasy around her. Later in class, Ongsa switches seats with Charoen to get a better view of Sun.
After school, Sun gives Ongsa a ride to her house. As it gets late, the latter worries about the former going back home. Sun then says Ongsa should let her stay the night at her house if she’s worried. Meanwhile, Aylin and Luna join the pair too. The latter shares she will be staying over to help the former prep for the sports day. After seeing them share glances, Aylin asks if Sun and Ongsa are girlfriends. After overhearing them, Ongsa’s sister, Alpha, asks her about the same. Sun then rushes home, blushing. Ongsa, too, doesn’t answer and heads inside the house.

The former says he would make Ongsa the star of the Sports Day event by putting her on Team Blue’s palanquin. The group then runs a traditional outfit trial for Ongsa.
Afterward, Sun feels jealous after seeing Ton do Ongsa’s makeup. On top of that, someone posts a photo of Ton and Ongsa on the school chat as people question if they’re back together. Poor Sun ends up feeling frustrated. After class, she tells Ongsa to let her do her makeup next time, not Ton. Ongsa then shares that she doesn’t feel confident about being on the palanquin. However, Sun assures and says the former will look beautiful in a traditional costume. The pair is interrupted when Ton joins and sits between them.
